You don't need to be an 'investor' to invest in Singletrack: 6 days left: 95% of target - Find out more
Little bit of a house fire, nothing too bad but both my nanos were destroyed and I need to replace them. Budget of max £100 or a wee bit more. Must have Bluetooth of course. Ideally have a weight of less than 50g. It'll be replacing a 7th gen nano which was a pretty cool bit of kit. Looking to move away from Apple coz getting iTunes to do what I want was a pita. A simple drag and drop of folders will be ideal.
Thanks all.
SONY make some epic Walkmen these days. I've had a couple of the HD audio ones and they've been pretty good.

What about your phone? Assuming it's not an iPhone but is a smartphone that is.
It's an iPhone, an old SE and the battery drops to 1% in a few minutes and no memory due to pics. I want a small dedicated mp3 player that'll do for the car as well as cycling.
How about Fiio, their cheapest one will take SD cards up to 512Gb

That FiiO looks excellent. I've had some of their gear in the past and rate it highly.
The fiiO's are decent wee players with good support but this HiBy may be worth a look at
The easiest way to get music on to your iPhone is to use Waltr 2. Just literally drag the songs or albums in the open Waltr app and drop and Waltr does the rest, even finding album artwork.
that hiby looks great, can't find it in the uk.
they're all too heavy, pahh
FiiO M9.... Recommend what you have
they’re all too heavy, pahh
😳 Have you bothered weighing your phone? And you asked for less than 50g, 38g is less than 50g, according to my meagre mathematical skills.
Do any of these have an easy way to get podcasts onto them or would you need to copy manually onto the SD card?
I'm with CountZero on this...OP stick with iTunes you deserve each other🤦
Anyone manage to order any of the Fiio units from ea-audio.co.uk?
despite being in stock I just get "This product is not currently available and cannot be added to the basket"
the Hiby is available on Amazon BTW, from Hiby UK
I've used advanced MP3 players before. Good customer service too.

Thanks for that Fiio M6 on its way 🙂
I take it back about the weight I hadn't seen the Fiio M5, so I'll be having that one I reckon.
Thanks guys.
👍
To be fair, I still have iTunes on my Mac, but it’s a ten year old Mini, and iTunes is purely to rip CD’s into then copy the files onto my phone, which is a straightforward process anyway; select all the tracks wanted to copy to the device, tap the ‘burger’ on any track, select copy to ‘device’, then sync the device. Ok, it’s not quite as quick as drag-and-drop, but it’s really not that difficult to do, or take very long either.
