Minor corrections to product description.
Maybe more later, but just a couple of clarifications to the product description. It seems like a great little player, volume is massive and not muted per EU Regs. It has no internal memory as most players do - you will need an SD card to store anything. The card slot is MICRO SD - not standard SD as listed. Also it shows the SD capacity as 512Gb - In fact my 1Tb card works perfectly well, so that is not a limitation.UPDATE After living with this for a few weeks, I'm more and more happy. Sound is fantastic, player is easy to use and reliable. One minor drawback is that the firmware might be better are organising your files - for example, I can select by genre and then by album title, but not by genre then artist. And sometimes the firmware will second-guess you on your own defined attributes - so James Brown is listed under the firmware's genre of Funk, not my genre of Soul. But these are minor quibbles for a unit of high quality and great value for the price.

Surprisingly impressed
Feels heavier than it looks, but that could be the metal exterior.Touchscreen for most of the controls. Didn't read the pdf manual, but was able to figure most things out just by playing with different swipes. So ease of use isn't intuitive, but once you know what you're doing it's fine. Screen is bright and clear.Volume button on side is a twisty knob. I've had this thing at 30% - 40% with bluetooth earbuds and it was fantastic. Sound quality was crisp and clear, and I've not played with the built-in equaliser.I bought this specifically for creating custom playlists to manage my autism and so far so good.I wanted a case to carry it and was tempted by a several, until I realised this is compact enough to fit into a GoPro minicase that I had, and the Bluetooth was not affected, so saved some money.Micro SD card: fingernail wasn't enough to push it in as far as I needed to, so had to get creative to solve this minor inconvenience. I used a 64Gb card and I would suggest organising any music prior to uploading e.g. By artist / album etc to make finding a specific song easier.Overall, if you're paying over £150 for something like this, you ARE going to get a quality product that is superior to cheaper alternatives, which I've also used but ended up buying this instead.This is the best Mp3 since my ipod nano.

Excellent little player, with a couple of minor issues
First the "bad" :The volume control is finnicky to operate, especially if you have the leather case for the player, but once can also change volume via the touch screen within the "song playing" window.Once you move the volume control the whole display becomes a touch screen slider where you can change volume more easily.The screen is small, and can be really awkward to change things in the E.Q. , your finger will cover the numbers so you can't really see very well what it's changing to. A small stylus will do the job better.But I've found there is absolutely no need to fiddle with the equalizer , the out of the box settings are fine as they are ( IMO )Sound quality IS amazing. The bass, mid and treble all stand apart beautifully. My car only has stock speakers and even on those it sounds incredible. Put it through a decent set of IEM's or speakers ( I have Edifier speakers in kitchen ) and it sounds amazing.Make sure you enable "Stand by" in the options or you may find the battery flat the next day.When I use it in my car I turn it on and leave it next to the handbrake ( the bluetooth range is good too )But when I get home I turn off the stereo and the player SHOULD stop too, but a couple of times I've seen it still playing and if you don't stop it your battery will be flat the next day. Stand by mode only kicks in if the device isn't playing.The only other niggle is something that would apply to ALL players, the difference is quality and volume between different mp3's .Some can be quiet and average quality , but the player still manages to TRY and get the best from them.A normalization feature would have been nice, otherwise go through your entire mp3 collection and adjust them manually ( nope!! ).I couldn't justify spending more than this on a player, and for the amount it costs it sounds great.I used to play music via my phone, but doing that AND using Google maps while driving just chewed up battery life, so I wanted a dedicated player.The difference between this and my phone audio is night and day.100% worth it if you don't want to spend more than £200

Small product big heart
As soon as I opened the box was surprised by the size and design. Bluetooth connectivity and availability to add an expansion memory card, definitely worth the price and better performance and product compared to the likes of Sony, Samsung or Apple products. Small product with big heart.

Sound and build are great, but functionality and performance is very poor
As soon as I got this I thought it was great from first impressions, the build quality is good and I loved the form factor.However as soon as I wanted to use it that's when the troubles began. Initially when trying to copy files across I soon realized I couldn't insert the SD card and plug it in via USB, the drive kept disconnecting and reconnecting. So I used a card reader and did that myself manually (Which was disappointing)When that was done (About 5000 FLAC files) it seemed to take forever to scan the files, and also realized that any time I added more I had to repeat the same process.The interface is just very clunky and not easy to navigate around making the experience a challenge.The final straw which resulted in me requesting a return is the Bluetooth, this is very unreliable, in the short time I've had this I've had to restart it each time to get it to play over Bluetooth, and unfortunately restarting took too long, by the time I had it ready on the school run I was almost home.This item feels like it should still be in testing and I feel the software is the most likely cause, but I am not prepared to wait for an update on an item that costs £200, I think I may have to pay a bit more for something that will work properly.
