Are there any good modern MP3 players? (reddthat.com)

I have a large music library that I don't have much storage left for on my phone. There are of course other ways of solving this problem, but are there any good dedicated music players like iPods still around?

Ideally I'd like it to have Bluetooth functionality for wireless headphones, at least 512GB of storage, and an SD card slot. Possibly physical buttons as well.

A kid i know has one from fiio, which he likes

Its small, not 512gb by itself, but features bt and sd card reader

Has physical buttons and a small display

Fiio echo mini

They probably has other models too

I've got one of these. Aka Snowsky echo mini, fiio's brand aimed at accessible/fun audio. It still has the pedigree of a higher end digital audioplayers, including a nice DAC and 4.4mm balanced output. Its also got a firmware update to be used as an inline DAC.

Qualms: lower end Bluetooth codec and lack of gapless playback.

I wouldn't use it if Bluetooth was a must, but I've enjoyed using it with a cheap pair of IEMs.

I kinda want one of those, they're cute. No bluetooth support though, and only supports up to 256GB on the MicroSD slot. Fine if you just have MP3s but you'll eat that up pretty quick with FLAC.
