Small and neat and easy to use. Very cool accessory!
No screen display but that's obvious.

A microscopic masterpiece. If you don't need an entire back-catalogue at your fingertips at any one time this is the player for you.
You might need to upgrade the earphones.

Can't believe how such a tiny piece of equipment can be so great.
Wished I'd bought the orange one just to be different.....!!!

Ideal product to be able to listen to music.
Glad I had my son who was able to load the music and charge the battery as I felt there were not enough instructions.

Too good sund, portable and handy
The earphone/headphone design should be like Sony's (earphone that comes with Sony Walkman range camera), as it is good and comfortable to ears.

Yasmin, Cardiff
Very small and handy when excersising or listening to music in general. 1GB which is a good size for me, you do actually get around to listen to all the songs. Nice colour and style.
Nothing bad really but quite pricey for such a small ipod.

Size, durability, value. great for youngters to use, no fiddley buttons or screen to break.
Instructions needed to be a little more clearer (about lights blinking) Have to install I-Tunes

Christine, Sevenoaks, “Oap learning spanish.”
It does exactly what I want. I download beginners Spanish and listen where I can. It is small, easy to carry and as new do not know how long battery life is and not aware of the cost of a new battery. Perhaps this will be expensive and take away the ten out of ten score.
At present have found none.

This little machine is magic!! So compact and easy to use, ideal for when in the gym or on the go. Stylish and light, and clips on to my clothes easily.
Can't say I have found any, so far so good, but I have every faith in this little machine, my husband has it's big brother and there is little difference in the sound quality of each product.

Sheila, Feltham
Sound quality is very good but 10/10 would have to be out of this world which you wouldn't get from the earphones used for such items. Range of features is very low but I wanted something simple and this is exactly that. I love my shuffle and certainly don't regret my purchase
My family have to listen to my singing without the actual song being audible.
