Introduction:

The iPod Shuffle (trademarked, marketed and stylized as iPod shuffle) is a digital audio player designed and marketed byApple Inc. It is the smallest model in Apple’s iPod family, and was the first to use flash memory. The first model was announced at the Macworld Conference &Expo on January 11, 2005; the current fourth generation model was introduced on September 1, 2010.

Design:

Sleek, polished aluminum. Five brilliant colors

Its main body is crafted from a single piece of aluminum and polished to a beautiful shine, so the new iPod shuffle feels solid, sleek and durable. And the color palette makes it the perfect fashion accessory. Choose gleaming silver, blue, green, orange, or pink.

Hundreds of songs to go

Never leave a favorite tune behind. Along with up to 15 hours of battery life,1 iPod shuffle gives you 2GB of storage capacity, good for hundreds of songs.2 That’s plenty of room for the essential songs of your workout or commute. And for multiple playlists, Genius Mixes, podcasts, and audiobooks, too.
