I'm considering it.

I'm given to understand there's at least one model of Sansa which can be made to handle high capacity microsd cards. Considering that too. Not sure which would end up being less expensive.
>>
>>56100471
If you've already got the iPod I'd imagine that'd be cheaper. I can't imagine a chink SSD would run more than a Clip and a microSD card, and an SD card + adapter certainly won't run you more than a Clip and a microSD card

I like the mp3 that was made using a song I enjoy as an audio source, then encoded in a way that reduces its filesize with minimal loss in quality.

>>56101440
Own an X3. Sound and drive capabilities are great, but the UI fucking sucks and the screen is absolute garbage. You can't see anything under direct sunlight, and you will struggle to see the screen under the shade. Response times can be slow once you start filling up your memory card (I use a 64gb Kingston class 10 card) and it's normal for the UI sto stutter for a second before displaying artists or albums.
It also has no capabilities to play audiobooks or podcasts, but that might not be important to you.
Overall I like it, but I find it hard to recommend unless you need a dedicated music player (because it won't play anything else) and don't plan on using it under the sun or in bright conditions.

Why would you want to take a huge step backwards? iOS 7 is when iOS started getting decent
>>
>>56101988
IOS never got decent.

It still can't really multitask for shit (on the OS - it's not multitasking if you need to write the program in a special way), and that was one of the biggest features everyone wanted from like Windows 95 and NT something back then.
>>

Ya, but in my opinion it's utter shit until it has multitasking.

Again, this is a feature that was almost universally adapted 20 years ago for everything but "single purpose" microcontrollers and the like, which smartphones clearly are not. And it's one of the most constantly used features ever.

IOS even regressed from fucking Symbian in that regard.

> Multitasking on a mobile means power management
No, it means processor usage because of course more apps are doing more things now.

If you force an user to only run one thing, yes, in total less work will get done by software than when the user can run as much software until they hit 100% CPU / RAM / ... load, at all times.

> which is part of the reason every iOS phone stomps every android phone on battery life
That your IOS doesn't allow you to do as much at the same time is, sure.

It's like a house that would probably also only consume less power in total if you could only power a SINGLE device. I guess you can't watch Youtube now, dad is taking a fax...

Also, this is reality:
http://www.gsmarena.com/battery-test.php3

Yes, it's a reality powered by better chipsets and slightly larger batteries, but most of these devices remain very comfortably portable anyhow.

> I can count the number of times I actually wanted to leave an app doing something in the background on one hand.
Oh really, how many run on your Windows / OSX machine right now as you are posting this - unless you're fully on a smartphone?

EVERYONE uses it all the time where it's available.

To go back to the house analogy, I don't really care that back in the day they were also happy to just have a light OR a water heating rod running. Yes, having one thing is very good - but in reality I now power 30+ devices at times.

Or your current smartphone if you were wise enough to get one with microSD slot(s).

'cause ultimately storage is very cheap on microSD, and so is a battery pack if you really need more than 20 or whatever hours of playback that most good modern smartphones can give.

http://www.gsmarena.com/battery-test.php3

Usually playback time for audio is fairly equal to the talk time (obviously depends on app and codec and how much you use the screen to operate the player and all that, but it's close enough).

So you can get ~32h on a $150 Chinese 5" smartphone. Which you also can recharge with a battery pack if needed - one that isn't necessarily much bigger than your current player.

Is that REALLY not enough?
>>
>>56102770

Am I better off getting this refurbished but cheaper sansa clip+, or the more expensive but brand new one?

I'm usually wary of used items/refurbished items unless they're books or the like. I don't like buying used electronics for the most part. Would it be a mostly safe buy to get the refurbished for cheaper?

What I'm saying is that listening to music doesn't drain my phone's battery, and using my phone doesn't reduce the number of songs I can listen to, because the devices are entirely independent of each other. Not to mention PMPs aren't plagued with the cancer that is the touchscreen.

Teehee

Beyond that, I like not sappin' my phone battery. Only have to bother charging it every couple of days and my MP3 has a 70 hour battery.

I love everything about it: the storage, clickwheel interface, the battery. It is a bit bulky but it's not really a problem for me. One of the best tech purchases of my life. I use it daily and the battery lasts easily for a couple of weeks.
>>
>>56114697
Phones don't get a much shorter battery life unless you have a terrible battery. It's much more convenient to have a multitasking device. Even if you have a shit battery all you need is to kill background tasks, get a power bank or enable airplane mode if you're just going to listen to music and do nothing else. There's no reason to use an external music player any more, there hasn't been in a very long time but hipsters keep using them.

Is there any mp3 player that also counts steps and stuff like that? Maybe a good timer to run in the background? I can't have a five inch phone in my pocket and the smartwatch is too expensive.

>>56114935
>Phones don't get a much shorter battery life unless you have a terrible battery
The only way you can get a smartphone to last close to a week is to not use it.
>It's much more convenient to have a multitasking device
Not at all
>get a power bank
So carrying a power bank along with your phone is acceptable but carrying a PMP isn't? kek
>or enable airplane mode
Holy fucking shit, do you realize how retarded you are?
>There's no reason to use an external music player any more
That is absolutely false. You just think that since you're okay with your phone that nobody should be allowed to have differing preferences. Eat a dick, you fucking twat.
>>
>>56114985
>The only way you can get a smartphone to last close to a week is to not use it.

>So carrying a power bank along with your phone is acceptable but carrying a PMP isn't? kek
this only applies IF you are retarded and buy a phone with a shit battery that cant be replace (pretty much everything apple makes), not to mention that same power bank can be used to charge multiple devices

>That is absolutely false
Actually its not false at all. there is no NEED to have a PMP because portable music is readily available through a device that most people already have. Soooooo yea.
>>
>>56115103
>Well duh, you use your phone a lot because it can do so much
Which is why it's retarded to say a phone's battery is close to a PMP's.

You still have the phone when you have a PMP, dumbass. That multitasking device is still there, you're just using something better for playing music.
>this only applies IF you are retarded and buy a phone with a shit battery that cant be replace (pretty much everything apple makes)
>not to mention that same power bank can be used to charge multiple devices
Why would you have multiple devices, anon? Just use your smartphone for everything like you keep telling me. Or are you a hypocrite?

It is 100% false.

That device people already have is inferior. Sure a phone can play music, but that doesn't mean it's as good at it as a PMP is.

What's your point here?
>Not at all
Yes it is, idiot.
>So carrying a power bank along with your phone is acceptable but carrying a PMP isn't? kek
Yes, because you're bitching about phones not lasting long enough and you have to bring 10 different devices with you. A phone is much more important than an mp3 player, not only is it able to be an mp3 player but it also does anything else you need. So keeping it charged is important.
>Holy fucking shit, do you realize how retarded you are?
And yet you appear to be another iFag who doesn't realise how amazing phones actually are because yours is too limited.
>That is absolutely false. Eat a dick
Someone's mad because he's too retarded to use his phone as anything he wants and fell for the PMP meme. You can even download music directly on the go from your phone.
You literally have no arguments.
>>
>>56114850
That'd be dumb, yeah, but it's not the only reason to me either. I thought quality sound was a myth, but one day I listened to the same song i'd heard on my own MP3 on his phone and I think it's just one of those things you don't notice until you "downgrade."

That being said, i'm not autistic enough to go out and buy a $500 MP3 player and the super expensive headphones to get the best out of them.

There's just no real downside to having one.They aren't bulky and take up very little space.

Two devices, you fucking moron. Just as many as a phone and a power bank.
>A phone is much more important than an mp3 player, not only is it able to be an mp3 player but it also does anything else you need
No fucking shit, which is why you carry one in addition to the MP3 player you carry due to its superiority to the phone.

All the more reason to offload music playback to a dedicated device.

Battery life is literally the only advantage a PMP has over a halfway decent smartphone.

If you have a cellphone that you have to charge once every 1-2 days anyway, there's no reason to carry a second device that has longer battery life.

That's literally like saying that a moped is the superior form of transportation because it has better fuel efficiency than most cars.

Smartphones can different playback software, can be easily updated to support any new file formats, can use streaming services like Spotify, have support for Bluetooth headphones (if that's your thing), can download album art etc from the internet on the fly, the list goes on and if you use your phone to do this, you have one less thing to carry about with you during the day.

I'm not even the anon you were arguing with, you now have two anons, at least, telling you that you're autistic. You're allowed to like a PMP, but the objective truth is that using your phone to play music is objectively superior to other options. You're the weirdo idiot, not everyone else. Embrace it.

I guarantee you there are some PMPs heavier than phones and vice versa. secondly, IF theres a difference, its ridiculously small, like several ounces. youre not going to feel the fucking difference in your pocket or fanny pack, whatever you faggets are doing these days.

>takes up less space
same fucking argument, difference is negligible. Also, quite ironic that one of your arguments for PMPs is that they take up less space. You know what takes up less space? not having a secondary device that does the SAME EXACT FUCKING SHIT as the device you most definitely because it is practically essential to modern life
>>
>>56115634

>I guarantee you there are some PMPs heavier than phones and vice versa.
There are also some PMPs that are more expensive than flip phones. But there is no phone capable of music playback that gets as small and light as a Sansa clip or Cowon M2.

>>
>>56115661
Dude, do you read? Thats the point. Phones are practically essential, everyone has one. there are fucking 6 year olds running around with smartphones because the technology is so cheap.

>>
>>56115579
Compile a list of PMPs that have at least five (5) different pieces of playback software, that have expandable storage, that have received updates to enable playback of new filetypes, that support Bluetooth headphones, and cost less than $150 USD.

by the way
>What if I go 1-2 days without the ability to charge my phone?
Do you live in a third world country? Are you actually saying that a PMP is better if you live somewhere that doesn't have running fucking water? Or are you saying that you're too retarded to find a charger? The one time my phone has been about to die after I forgot to charge it, I asked a stranger to borrow their charger... problem solved.

Or maybe your life is so abysmally depressing that you value the ability to listen to music above the ability to communicate with people. Or maybe you're trolling. Either way, it's clear that your opinion is completely worthless. Goodbye.

The only argument that holds any substantial merit in this entire thread is ironically the one being used the least, and thats the one about audio quality. Size/battery life/storage space/interface all that shit these idiots are arguing about are all irrelevant/easily countered. But the guy who would say " I use a PMP because im an audiophile and when I listen to music I want to hear it at its best" would get 0 objections from anyone who isnt arguing like a shitlord

Back then and even now the Ipod Video 5G is still the best PMP.

Install Rockbox on it
Install a iFlash-DUAL with 2X256GB SD cards for a total of 512GB.
Enjoy more than 15 Hours of continuous music playback.


Anything breaks? bad battery? screen? headphone jack?

Just replace that shit with a $10 part, no soldering required.

Anons, what's the best mp3 player for about <$100. One I can just hook up to my car and play music rather than using my phone. I'd rather not have to load my phone up with music or spotify stream. Rather have a sep device

Been looking at the fii0 X1, but I'm not sure if I can plug it into my car.

while i really dislike the use of 'mp3' when you speak of a DAP, partly because MP3 is a licensed and proprietary format, as well as for its outdated and lossy encoding, to answer OPs question:

I use a FiiO X7 with a 200GB micro SD card, carrying 5508 songs, 140.7GB, with a total length of 16 days, 9 hours, 25 minutes, and 15 seconds of music in my pocket.

One may argue that you don't need this much music and you don't need FLAC, but i see no reason to use something else, or carry less, when disc space is quite cheap nowadays.
>>
>>56116426
>wanting to carry every song you could possibly want on you
Why would I willingly and unnecessarily restrict which songs I can listen to? No matter what it is, if I feel like listening to a song, I can whip out my iPod and play it. Why would I force myself into such a situation where I'd want to listen to a song and couldn't because I decided that even though I could carry it and that there's absolutely no con to doing so it's just unnecessary?
>>carrying your entire collection on you when you only listen to the same playlists
I don't listen to any playlists.
>not changing your playlists every couple of weeks
See above
>being this gluttonous
What in the fuck are you on about?
>>
>>56116467
Perhaps you should reconsider how you listen to music. How much thought/time do you put into navigating to specific artists/albums/songs? Would it not be easier to simply choose a playlist and passively consume the music you want?

>>56116294
iPod shuffle is the patrician's digital music delivery device
>>
>>56116494
all my music is ordered per artist folder, with subfolder being the year first, album title next. herein are the tracks all ordered by discnumber-tracknumber.

I spend very little time finding the album i want to listen to, and i barely ever listen to tracks on their own.

the music that i want to consume is that 5508 songs.

I suppose we have different philosophies then. My opinion is that you waste too much time and thought changing your music queue, navigating your entire collection on a handheld device, and keeping your eyes away from the road.

Your music should be supplementary to your task at hand. Stopping to change the flow of the music is a distraction. Simply build playlists or use pandora.
>>
>>56116740
>My opinion is that you waste too much time and thought changing your music queue
I just shuffle everything unless there's something specific I want to listen to

>>56118007
Considering that you can get a 64gb microsd for less than $20 and many (if not most) people's audio library is larger than 64gbs this limitation is a deal breaker.

Should I expect you to shit post in response driven by some irrational post purchase rationalization?

PMP quality is also a crapshoot.
The top players have performance that far exceed any phone, but there are many that don't work as well. Some of these subpar devices are popular models.

It can have plenty more voltage depending on the load. The V10 has a simple load sensor.

>>56115812
>Size
As if any music capable phone can get as small or light as most DAPs. The only way it gets countered is by picking out the $1k+ DAPs which are larger and weigh more but also a lot better sounding/capable.
