HiByDigital M300 Music Player with Speaker Android 13 OS SD665 Soc Bluetooth WiFi and FM 1280x640 Resolution IPS Display Supports PCM768k DSD256 32G+2TB Expandable Memory Silver

Had the HiBy digital M300 music player for a couple of days and am extremely pleased with it. I added a high end 512 GB Sandisk Micro SD card and then placed my music collection on it. The collection, which added up to 240 GB took a while to load but the player did this flawlessly. The HiBy music player app recognized the music easily and I was ready to go. I used my Ear Fun Pro Noise Cancelling headphones (these to me are better sounding for music than the much more costly ones from Bose or Sony-I recommend these highly if one wants great music on a budget) to sync with the player. The Bluetooth connection was immediate and the sound was fabulous. The music is clear, smooth, warm giving me a well-balanced listening presence. I tried all different music since I am an eclectic music lover such as pop, jazz, classical, soul, country, oldies and other types and each music genre was given a similar smooth and balanced sound with a wonderful stage presence. At times when the music warranted it, I could hear different instruments to the left and right, as well as a vibrant presence in center stage for a vocalist. The base was just perfect, not too obvious but nevertheless accenting the lows and mids throughout. I am not an Audiophile, but someone who loves listening to music, even through streaming on Spotify and this player does it all well. I can download any Google app with no problem, which the player easily supports. The device is very very compact and yet large enough to fit into the comfort of ones hand. It is made out of solid materials and they even placed a screen protector on the front. Some people may say that their phone may do the same thing, and they might be right. Yet when I listen to music, while reading, or walking, or working in the yard, I prefer not be be disturbed since I want to be in my zone and out of the hustle and bustle of phone calls. The sound compared to my Samsung phone is also far better. Those younger people in the midst of a successful career, should probably keep their music on their phone, but for a person who at some time during their day likes being in a personal zone--these would be perfect for them. There are cheaper ones out there but these will get the job of delivering music done in a full and clear way with an overall package that is thoughtfully designed. I recommend them highly.

Easy to use, easy to transfer music, great storage with expandable memory. Sound is good from device, even better when paired with speakers. Great battery life so far. I've been using all day, about 5 hours, and still have over 50% left. Easily pairs with my Bluetooth devices, I was also able to quickly share songs from android to M300 over Bluetooth. I appreciate that it asks for permissions to accept external devices transfers. It's factory set so it doesnt just default to allow anything to access the device. So check your settings if you have any issues. You just need to turn on permissions. The blue color is so pretty, it's vibrant and looks even better in person. Highly recommend the Musicolet app for organizing and playing your music.

This device works very well for what I needed from it, which was something that would play High-Res audio, have a 3.5" jack to connect to the stereo in my car, and minimum Bluetooth 5.0 for listening to music while walking my dogs at night. I don't own Balanced Headphones so having a balanced output wasn't important to me. Saves you $100 right there over players that do. MicroSD expandability was another must for me because I do listen to a lot of High-Res Audio and those files are big! My current loadout is about 5,500 songs which take up about 400GB.The interface is snappy and works well, especially if you are familiar with Android devices. The fact it's running a full version of Android means getting your apps to work on it is a breeze.Another nice touch: On my old Android player, I would have to edit my playlists to swap the direction of the folder/path slashes. Windows has them as "/" but Android (at least older versions) liked them to be "\". This player did not need any editing, and the playlists as I made them on my PC worked perfectly 1:1 on the player.The three things that kept this from being a 5-star review though: It has issues with some special characters, some of them common ones. Like proper single quotes, or temperature degree symbols. Also some slashes were causing issues. These have to be purged from the id3 tags as well as the file names to get them to play correctly. And when it encounters a file with something it can't deal with, instead of just skipping to the next track, it stops. Additionally, the response from button presses is slow. When you hit pause, it's a couple seconds before it stops. The same with Next & Previous. I really would have like those to be snappier. And finally, the screen is a little small ;P I mean I knew that going in, and I don't really use the screen for all that much anyway, but there are times I am really squinting to see something on it.But on the whole, this player does everything it says it will, and does it well in a nice small and light form factor. The battery life is also quite good! On a full charge, I went for a 4 mile, 90-minute walk last night and no joke when I came home it had only burned 2%. All the files were at a minimum of CD Quality (16/44.1) and many were High-Res (up to 24/192). Pretty nice!So if a Balanced Output is important, this is not for you. If it isn't, save yourself some money over the more expensive DAP's and pick up this.
