This apparatus, the XNUMXrd generation iPod Shuffle, has generated various opinions, some good and others not so much, but, ultimately Apple is working to make its operation easier every day. The people of Ipodized has given some of his experiences with this iPod and we will be talking about that in this post, but, to reverse our chronicle a bit, let's remember when Apple released the iPod Shuffle XNUMXst generation; back then, it was supposed Apple would renounce all the principles that at a certain moment he defended with the iPod original: click wheel, screen, ease of navigation, in contrast ... all looking for was removed portability.
Eliminated the controls, almost disappeared the buttons, novelties that benefit the handling and operation of the gadgets who manage to leave behind iPod Shuffle that preceded it, since it was more focused on satisfying users who knew the songs in their library closely, those who know by heart who sings or whose song is and do not need the device to inform them of anything. nothing.
Just a few days ago the new XNUMXrd generation iPod Shuffle, and as we already told you, it has produced various comments, good and bad, like everything else, but you have to pay Apple that does not cease in its attempt to make the operation of its equipment easier every day and also seeks to give them the portability that we have been mentioning since its inception.
This iPod It came with noticeable improvements, without controls and almost without buttons, which makes us see the previous one iPod totally obsolete, since this one was perfect for those who know perfectly the songs in their library and know what they have in their iPod Shuffle without needing to be told who sings this or that. But since we are in the time of P2P, in which young people download the songs they want, pass them on and receive them from their friends, often not knowing what song it is or who sings it, and sometimes they just want to delete it and no more ... it is in this case that the XNUMXrd generation iPod Shuffle act like him gadgets perfect.
However, they have also told us some flaws that the new iPod Shuffle presents, for example, the iPod Shuffle You need a special adapter to work with the speakers what you use and with auriculares that you have chosen, and we were already talking about it in the post "Made for iPod and the dilemma with the chip in the headphones for Shuffle". Curiously, it brings a USB cable that is too small (as seen in the photograph), which will not be much of a joke especially for users of iMac and Mac MiniRemember that these units do not have USB ports on the front.

Very good, to start by saying that The Shuffle does work with any type of headset, with or without a remote, the fact is that if it doesn't have a remote, obviously you turn it on and it starts playing directly without control, you can't do more than simply leave Let the songs pass
What makes me sad about the Shuffle is not more than having to be "forced" to have headphones with a remote control, this is a product mainly for people who are not going to look at the screen during its operation and who prefer to listen to music in Shuffle mode, so I think it is an iPod aimed at athletes above all, who want to use it other types of people are in their right but for me Apple is making it quite clear to whom it is aimed, I have an iNano to play sports 4G that I put his leash on him, and run, obviously I'm not going to turn my head to see what I'm listening to, because more than anything I know what music I have and when I listen to it I already know what song or artist it is, so doing sports We do not look at the screen, and the buttons I have to say that it is "difficult" to change or raise the volume while you are running, so having them in your hand is not bad, but who is going to create headphones for athletes with a remote control? specifically sun or for the shuffle?

I would like to have information on how to make a cable for a third generation ipod shuffle ... well I have one but the cable was stolen and I have not been able to use it and here in Colombia it has not arrived yet ... I need the relevant help thanks
As Switzerland comments, I bought the 3rd generation Ipod Shuffle to do sports, specifically to go for a run and what has been my surprise that after having used it about 6 times the headphones fail with the humidity of sweat. Well I suppose it will be because of this since I do not think it is due to movement ... It seems incredible to me that such a device is designed, in my opinion for sports and it turns out that headphones fail with sweat ....
Has the same thing happened to someone?
Of course it has happened to more people, there is a post on the apple support page talking about the subject with many people complaining. I bought the ipod shuffle and apart from the in-ear headphones (79 euros) that also come with a remote and microphone (it works well for the iphone) and the same thing happens with sweat. It starts failing the control, the next day it works again (It dries up) until one day they stop working. I have 4 changes of headphones, yes, Apple changes them without putting any problem.

SAME TO ME!! I bought mine in OfficeDepot, they have a warranty with them for 7 days, and on the seventh day of use, MY HEADPHONES BREAKED !! It gave me so much courage ... because I was not sure about buying one of that brand, because I know that all their products are very "special" and that they sent me with the company, I told them, and they told me to see if I would enter For the guarantee, if the guarantee does not enter, they would charge me 300 pesos to see the ipod "checked". And in about three days they laugh at me what happens ... in case they want to charge me the 300 pesos, I will go to Proffesco to complain…. Let's see what they tell me, and see what happens ... then I'll tell them where it all ends. 😛
it seems that the button of the headphones is not necessary; just by turning it off and on, the song changes
Well the i pod Shuffle for my taste is very good I mean aesthetics and compactness compared to Shuffle 1 generation but the problem is that when I want to connect it to a stereo I cannot level the volume control only through the stereo and I can't change from one song to another you have to wait until the song ends to keep waiting for your favorite song
Good brother, I have a problem with my ipod, the pc recognizes it, the radio recognizes it, but when I put the headphones on, it tells me battery seven five percent, battery 75 percent, if I'm not mistaken, and there it turns off and does nothing more! what can it be?
will you know brother?
my ipod got wet and now it doesn't turn on someone knows how to restart it
