I want to get less reliant on my phone and go out more without it. One of the big use cases for my phone is music.
I have a lot of local music files and I would like to transfer them to a mp3 player. I would prefer something offline that I can drag files too. Also Bluetooth would be a plus so I can continue to use my earbuds.
Something easy to navigate would be ideal too. Basically like what iPods were like with a small screen where you can navigate easily and see album artwork.
I have a Hiby R3 and have enjoyed it. https://store.hiby.com/products/hiby-r3-ii-2025
It’s smaller than a phone, but the screen is still large enough to scroll through your collection with. Also, it’s not running Android, which I like. (For some reason I’m just irked by the fact that everything around me is running Android these days.) So there aren’t any apps – it’s just a music player, which I also like.
Nice. I also wanted a DAP that didn’t run Android and I ended with the fun and ultra gimmicky Mixxtape (you can use the device itself as a cassette tape). It was only $60-ish, so don’t expect top tier build quality or interface, but I am pretty happy with it.
Wow, that is a very creative idea, I love it! :D
