iPhones don't have a USB port, micro or otherwise.

I got one and it holding it in your hand feels like crap. Plastic feeling etc. like it's gonna break at the slightest drop.
>>
>>51316770
It's not going to break, that thing is indestructible. Mine is several years old, not a single scratch
>>
That's not a Fiio X1

For music players under $50 and not requiring client software? Absolutely.

There's probably "better" audio players like FiiO shit but they are all tremendous wastes of money and only 'better' for tiny niche markets.

For a poor dipshit, yeah.

OP here, I just found pic related, any good? It's a little more expensive, but it supports FLAC and seems well built.

>tfw have poweramp for local mp3s, spotify for saving and playing huge playlists online or offline and internet radio capabilities

desu senpai mp3 players are backwards as fuck

Do not pay fucking $60 for a Sansa Clip+.
I had one like 5 years ago and paid $24.99 and still felt like I bought a piece of shit.
I've owned a Fiio X1 and an X5 OP and they're well built and sound much better than a fucking Sansa Clip will.

Just use your android phone you ultra autist.

Also if you're not having loudness issues with your phone and whatever headphone you're using, then just use your damn smartphone.

Why not just use a boombox you deprecated old pieces of shit.

Stop parroting memes and actually give a valid argument not to just use your phone.

This.
I have a Note 3 and I bought a Fiio X1.
It was definitely better quality but in the end the only thing I would notice on day to day use was the volume of it, which the Note 3 is so loud enough to damage your hearing on max volume anyway.

i have a x1 and it works.

i dont use my phone as i have a m7 and i don't really care carrying around two devices

>>51317809
Yet I have a 128GB MicroSD card sitting in my phone.
Do autistic people have like sensory overload trying to fucking operate a touchscreen or something god damn.

You call pic related "less storage"? Literally 99% of android phones support memory up to 200 GBs.

Get with the time grandpa.
>>
>>51317844
>>51317864
And I have a 256GB SSD in my iPod Classic
>>
I honestly can't tell if people are trolling or being serious in this thread anymore. MP3 players are dead, I can't see a viable reason why someone would use an MP3 player over literally any android phone.
>>
>>51317881
It's actually a hard drive with a lifespan of 5-6 years. Have fun getting all your music corrupted by a failing mechanical hard drive.
>>
I would use standalone players but Spotify and Internet stations are too useful for finding new music so I end up just using my phone.
>>
>>51317948
Actually knowing /g/ he probably did put a 256GB SSD in his iPod, which you can do.
>>
>>51317881
256GB micro sd cards are going to be released next year lol
>>
>muh 192/24 flac
>>
>>51317931
I use my cowon z2 since like 3 years. my note 4 sounds like absolute aids trash, that's about it. i don't want to waste the battery of my phone either.
>tfw i haven't fallen for the streaming meme yet
feels great
>>
>>51317864
nigga stop talking out your ass.

The vast majority of phones do not support memory up to 200GBs

Only recently released phones are even capable of that, most models fall in between 64 and 128gb
>>
>>51317948
No, it had a hard drive. Now it has an SSD.

>>51317976
512GB and 1TB mSATA SSDs are out right now lol
>>
>>51316060
Yes after you do a few things to it
>rockbox
>128gb sd card
>425mah battery upgrade over the standard 290mah
Then you're set.
I get crazy run times out of this little thing now and I can put my entire library in flac on it.
>>
>>51318002
Why don't you quit talking out of your ass.
Literally any Android phone made in the past 5 years will support a 128GB or larger MicroSD card as long as it's formatted FAT32, cards now a days coming formatted as exFAT is the reason people think this, some phones don't support exFAT, just put the card into your computer and format FAT32 and watch a fucking 128GB MicroSD card work in a 8 year old BlackBerry. (Which I have done...)
>>
>>51318002
He's right though any phone that can support 32GB micro sd chips can support 200GB micro sd chips. The catch is they must be formatted to fat32 instead of exfat but they will work regardless.
>>
>>51318011
Well I guess your autism knows no bounds. Have fun with your shitty ipod while I watch 1080p hevc video and play opus audio files on ny note 3.

I feel like people actually like sansa.
I feel like I want to buy one, but I wouldn't need it since I have a phone with spotify and am using my friends account until her phone returns.

I dont imagine using flac, i would more than likely just get mp3 320 lossless. Do default android headphones work with flac?
>>
>>51318078
>Have fun with your shitty ipod while I watch 1080p hevc video on ny note 3
My iPod's a music player, not a video player.
>>
>>51318078
I think it's you that has autism
>watching animes
>meme formats
>>
>>51318094
Why wouldn't they?
>>
There is literally no advantage to using a dedicated player over a phone you god damn idiots.
>>
>>51318100
Whatever you say grandpa.
>>
>>51316060
Its decent but the battery life is pretty shite.
>>
>>51318190
You need to learn that /g/ has become a circle jerk of autism.
>>
>>51318237
true
>>
>>51318177
Im not too keen on the whole flac vs mp3 debate. What i meant to say would be along the lines that can flac work with muh clear quality in sounds
>>
>>51318273
Well yeah, 99% of android devices play up to 20KHz and your average 20 something year old can only hear up to 16 Khz so it will be fine. Only ones that don't are the $20 ones from wallmart.
>>
The only reason I have a dedicated music player is because I don't like getting sweat and stuff on my phone from working out. I sweat a lot when I workout or run and I want to protect my phone from that.
>>
>>51318053
OP again, how would you install the battery? Where can I find a replacement?
>>
>>51316060
I wish Rockbox guys would get their shit together. I love my sansa and I really like the added functionality by rb, but navigating the os is a fucking mess. Half of the time I forget which button does what.
>>
>>51316060
>So /g/, is this the definitive best music player?
Ctrl+F "Astell & Kern"
Not found.

You /g/uys are stupid. Astell & Kern music players are the best in the market.
