FiiO SNOWSKY Echo Mini

Weird, wonderful little MP3 player

I'm an avid runner who's been looking for a good, affordable MP3 player to take running for years, and this little weirdo has been AMAZING. Unlike every other MP3 player at or near its pricepoint, the sound quality is insanely good, and the volume levels it can achieve are actually loud enough to drown out the sound of the world around me, which is a must. As others have mentioned, the actual UX is bizarre and has a bit of a learning curve, but it's absolutely worth it. Also worth noting that it looks like it would be a solid little machine but it's actually very lightweight; they clearly skimped on every other material choice to keep it cheap enough to afford the DACs. This is important to note because it's light enough that you don't need to put it in a holder or anything to exercise with it; it'll sit happily in your pocket without slowly pulling your pants down over the course of a run. I genuinely couldn't be more pleased with this thing, I'd give it six stars if I could.

Very nice dap

The dap performs as expected but sometimes it feels slow when navigating menus

Really great value

Its compact, it sounds amazing and gets firmware updates pretty frequently. Im really happy with the purchase The only thing that bothers me is that after you put a lot of songs on it, like 3000+, it gets a little laggy because of the cheap chipset inside it, but you know, they had to cheap out somewhere so they can put in TWO of these AMAZING DAC chips. So I usually don't store more than 1000 songs on it at once, and it works perfectly
