Apple iPod shuffle 2 GB Blue (2nd Generation) OLD MODEL Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)At first, there a few things that I didn't like about the iPod shuffle (prior to buying, of course).
1) There isn't a screen, making it difficult for me to change to a song I happen to like at a certain time
2) It was too small in my opinion, both physically and as far as memory was concerned.I was used to my 40GB 3rd Gen Classic, so the thought of not being able to access all my music at the time I want to was something that only gave me dread.

However, on a whim when I got a bonus and when my roommate who has a shuffle told me how he liked it and that my concerns were unwarranted, I bought this little device.I was still skeptical, but most of my concerns are mostly gone.

Although the device is indeed small as far as memory wise comparatively, it stores more than enough if I listen on a normal basis.Additionally, on the occasion that I am listening while on the car, I don't want to be distracted by trying to select a song every few minutes (hence why I used to prefer listening to the radio).Being unable to do so is a disadvantage in most cases that I listen to music, but it's a blessing in disguise.

This device is small, but because of that, it's not cumbersome at all while exercising, driving, or almost any task.It also comes with a clip by itself, so one can position in most any position he or she desires.

I was also surprised by the battery time.I decided to not charge it until it ran out of batteries and kept it on from the instant I had it fully charged.It ran for a good two days, probably because of the lack of switching tracks and the lack of a backlit screen.I don't expect this battery life to last that long, since iPods are notorious for dying rechargeable batteries (but then again, all rechargeable batteries lose charge after every recharge). Apple products are perhaps a little overpriced at times, but for what it's worth, the iPod Shuffle is well worth the money in terms of quality, time, and its simplicity.
