The New iPod shuffle seems to be smaller and has a sleek look to it.Quite thin in size and can holdup to 4GB of songs (up to 1000 songs). Like the previous shuffle, it does not have a display on it and comes with a clip. This shuffle comes with additional features which the previous version did not have…

Now you can have your iPod shuffle talk to you as you listen to your song. It has the capability to tell you the name of the artist and the song name by the push of a button by a new feature called VoiceOver. It also tells you the name of the playlist since this iPod lets you have multiple playlists for your songs.

One of the negative features I find is the location of the control buttons. The play, pause, next/previous buttons are location on the wire of the earplugs which means you have to use Apple’s earplugs in order to use this iPod. Everything is controled from there except the on and off switch which is on the shuffle itself. Apple did say they would provide an adapter for 3rd Party headphones so lets see what that looks like.

Overall I’m not a big fan of the shuffle since I would like to see the song I am listening to rather than hear a VoiceOver tell me about it so that I can shuffle through them. Seems to have a very sleek look to it and is tiny compared to the previous version.

What do you think of the new iPod shuffle?

Per molti adulti la possibilità di regolare volume, pausa e durata delle sessioni si traduce in un intrattenimento più sostenibile, che si…

Interfaccia e usabilità: comfort e ritmo La prima cosa che colpisce di un casinò online non è il catalogo dei giochi, ma la sensazione di entrare in uno spazio comodo e chiaro. Un’interfaccia pensata per il flusso visivo, tempi di caricamento rapidi e percorsi semplici tra le sezioni trasformano un’attività potenzialmente frenetica in un’esperienza rilassata,…
