SnowSky/FiiO Echo Mini HiFi Bluetooth MP3 Player, 15Hours Playback, Independent Volume Control with 3.5mm/4.4mm Headphones Outputs (Pink)

In a world were we've been herded into an all in one smartphone based system, this little guy is a breath of fresh air. It's like going back to the early 00s when your MP3s came from a stack of CDs you'd ripped or infected the family PC with stuff you'd found on Limewire. You didn't need subscriptions, data, or a wifi connection Local content was were it was at. Things have changed a bit since them, mainly Audio Quality and file size. the 8GB this thing comes with is great, you can store a bunch of music or books on there, but you can also slip a micro sd card into it (up to 256gb) to literally carry WEEKS of listening. For something incredibly small and light (it's about as large and heavy as a box of matches) it runs for a good 12+ hours. SnowSky claim 15 hours of playback but this is likely with low screen brightness etc. so in the real world you'll probably charge this maybe once a week with a couple of hours a day listening time- ideal if you're commuting. To use you've got buttons and menus- like I said, back to the 00s, so no touch screen. They aren't simple menus either, they're nested and you have to go down a few levels to get into some option lists and functions like the EQ settings. Even a month or so on I'm still having to think about what I'm doing and not able to get by on memory yet. The more complicated functionality might be a deal breaker for some but I'm loving the more mindful experience and the tactile feedback from the buttons. It's easy to load up with audio and supports may file formats inc the new gold standard FLAC. it's literally drag and drop from your PC. This is how you set your playlists up too, you just group tracks into a folder and transfer the folder to the Echo Mini- it doesn't support playlists transferred from your PC annoyingly, I'm hoping some day a FW update will fix this, but until then grouping tracks in a 'playlist folder' and is the best workable solution.Ive also just discovered it will display the song lyrics when the appropriate LRC file is in the same folder as the source tracks which is pretty cool! The screen is so-so. In bright sunlight it can be difficult to read even on the highest brightness setting despite the fiddlyness I love this thing and cant get over how little it cost compares to other DAPs on the market. As a final thought I would highly recommend hunting down one of the official cases for it, it adds a really premium feel to the DAP and makes if a million times more robust. I don't worry about this clattering around in my pocket or bag now.

Akkulaufzeit ist ok, nutze aber ohne Bluetooth. Das Teil ist superleicht, bootet total schnell und ich liebe es, allein der Look ❤️

This is an amazing product! I had no issues with moving all my music to the Echo Mini. The sound is amazing and I love being able to have a separate device for my music! No more money being used on a service and my listening and attraction to music has changed completely. Overall, the ease of just converting a file to MP3 and dropping it into the folder....that easy. Now, I get nostalgia from doing this because I was born in the 2000s. I recommend Snowsky Echo Mini for any music enjoyers who want to separate their devices. I have been using my MoonDrop Aria 2 IEMS for my listening experience and it's been wonderful. I haven't used the Bluetooth because I always just plug mine in.

Super funcional y original.

This was a perfect gift for someone that I know is learning about curating music and playlists. The quality is amazing for a beginner, and they were very happy with the retro look of the device. The screen size is small but depending on your file you can at least see the album cover art. Also it defaults to a running cassette tape image. The Bluetooth works great, in the structure seems durable for a young adult.
