32GB MP3 Player with Bluetooth 5.0, Phinistec Z6 Digital Audio Player with Loud Speaker, 2.4'' IPS Portable Music Player with Long Battery Life, FM Radio, Voice Recorder Support up to 256GB(Black)

I initially got this for a single reason. I play in bands, and we are always in need of a media player to play music between sets. I initially was going to use my phone, but no headphone jack, and if I forgot to put the phone on 'do not disturb' then I'd be in trouble. Also, interruptions with the streaming were another concern. Not only that, but I had to shell out $100 buck for a transmitter that picked up Bluetooth and patched it to the mixer with a cable. Inconvenient.I really only wanted something that had a 1/8th" output, which this does, and conveniently has 2 different outputs in this manner. I was only expecting headphone, but got the additional output which is better for a board mix. The fact that it also works (very well) with Bluetooth is a bonus. I'm not using a lot of the functions on this, but I did set up the calendar (just because). What it does, it does very, very well. The battery life in it is astounding. I ran it for about 6 hours straight for 2 shows in a weekend and it's still pretty much full. I have to just remember to keep it charged between shows. The functions are a little strange only because we are all used to smart phones now, but the controls make perfect sense. It feels very rugged, has screen protectors on the back and front, along with extras (very nice).Zero problems with load up a fully loaded micro SD card and shuffling the music. One thing about the playlist function. Since I use the SD card only for music, I cannot build playlists. I'm going to assume that in order to create playlists, it has to be music that is stored directly on the player. Since I didn't monkey with that, I can't say for sure, but I'm assuming that this is the way that it works. I'm okay with that, I only need to shuffle the music in the single folder.Now that I've had it for a few months, I'm happy with the performance. I'm buying another just to go walking the neighborhood with since I don't really like carry along the bulky phone. Like I mentioned, the Bluetooth functionality works fine so that'll work well. I'm not a fan of the built in speaker, but hey, it's a tiny thing and not meant to blow the walls out so it's forgivable. It's probably meant more for the voice recording function, and you can hear it, so not even a deal breaker. Overall, I'm extremely happy with this and for the price, it's a no brainer. Definitely buying another.

Phinistec Z6 is not a HiRes Audio player! But as an mp3 player, which also plays many other audio formats, it is definitely one of the best in terms of value for money - if not the best.The purchase at Amazon was impeccable, and the delivery to Hungary was reasonably fast. The packaging is moderately elegant and safe. It should be noted that in addition to the applied glass foils, we also get a spare and the included USB-A-USB-C adapter is a useful accessory.The device itself provides a premium feeling in terms of its weight and use of materials. The storage capacity of 96 GB is enough for a lot of things. With wired earphones, the sound quality - depending on the quality of the earphone - can be said to be quite good. The problem was that the maximum volume with BT headphones or a speaker was extremely low, so to speak, unusable. I wrote to the manufacturer's customer service about this, and the next day they sent me a new firmware version with a detailed description of the update process. After completing the update, the BT problem was practically solved: although the volume is lower than that available with the wired headset, it has increased significantly compared to before, and is completely usable. Big thanks and appreciation to the customer service!The menu system is a bit old-fashioned, a bit clumsy, sometimes cumbersome and not very spectacular. It would be nice if the colour of the background and text could be changed (black background, white letters, red is the active menu item).But you can live with that. The battery life is absolutely fantastic, it really is as much as the description promises.In summary: if you don't expect HiRes Audio quality, it's well worth the price.It is very good for listening to music on the go every day.

I ordered this after reading reviews that the company was responsive and fixed some bugs and annoyances in the software. This is rare for companies to do this and tells me they stand by their product and want to make the consumer happy and make the product the best it can be. I applaud them for that and they got my business. I was also impressed with the packaging and what the unit came with.This player is built like a tank. It is as heavy as my cell phone which is to be expected since it has heavy batteries in it that give you 90 hours of listening pleasure. I use it for trips and working out. It is probably not good for running unless you strap it to your arm.The sound is great for audiophiles. The player comes with built-in 32 GB. It took about an hour to transfer 500 songs in FLAC format. I also bought a 128 gb high-speed card for it. I have not loaded it yet but will do so via my computer. Note that you will need to format the card to FAT32 format. You will not be able to do this with a Windows Computer. I used a program called Rufus to format the card. I will also transfer FLAC files directly to the card. Also, keep in mind that the speed of your file transfer depends on the hardware you have and the speed of the card itself. The card I have is about 130MB/s. I did a test and put the card it in the player and uploaded it connected to my computer the player. It took about 3 minutes per 40 minutes album worth of songs.I am not sure what people are talking about adding playlists. Maybe this was an issue with older firmware? I use a free program called MusicBee and create my playlists within it. When I connect the player to my computer, BumbleBee automatically acknowledges the Z6 and the extra card I put in it. I set up BumbleBee so that when the player is connected it automatically uploads the songs and whatever playlists I create into the Z6.I am glad the company added an equalizer component. Every set of phones and buds I have sounded completely different and every set of ears are different. EQ is a necessity. It would also be nice if they added auto volume leveling. I know that is asking for a lot at this price point.I am getting ready to go on a 7-hour flight and I am not at all worried about the battery life of this player. My earbuds will give out long before the player will.Some folks are complaining about the price, but to be honest given the responsiveness of the company and how well this thing is built....it is well worth the price.The built-in speaker is okay for listening to such things as audiobooks and playback for things you record. It is annoying for me to listen to music on it. There really needs to be a persistent switch in the software to cut off the speaker. Every time you disconnect your Bluetooth the speaker will play. This is not cool if you are in places like a library.For those having issues with showing album art. I embed album art in each of my files roughly 200x200 pixels. They will then show up on the player. You will need to do this through whatever jukebox software you may use to catalog your songs. Most modern software does this now.Like anything, once you use the player, the controls will become intuitive to you. It's a pocket player, not a $1000 cell phone.The Bluetooth connects fast. I connected this player to 2 cars. Both vehicles connected easily via Bluetooth. I have an older 2011 Lexus with older Bluetooth and a newer Kia with newer Bluetooth. The radio controls on both cars changed songs. The song titles did not show up on either car. This is not an issue with the cars, but an issue with the player not pushing titles via Bluetooth. It would be nice if the unit did this. I did not physically connect the unit to see if song titles would show on my cars.The Bluetooth also connected well to about 5 different headphones and earbuds I used with the player.One thing that totally annoys me is how small the font is on the song titles and they are in dark red on a black background. It is extremely difficult to read and people with sight issues are not going to be able to easily read it. At least make it white or yellow on the black background so it shows up. There is enough screen real estate to make the song titles a larger font that has better readability.Would I buy this product again or give it as a gift? Absolutely.I asked the question, what are the codecs for the AVI/AMV containers? Of course, some dufus answers it's not a video player. They apparently did not read the description and trolls like that are pretty useless.= and should just stay under their bridge,The instructions regarding how to format the video are nonexistent. After fiddling with it and trying 20 converters that did not work and wasted 6 hours of my time trying to figure out the correct formats and which codec it uses, I finally found software from 2012 from another vendor that worked with this player. It may be the same vender, who knows?Do a search on " Ruizu Video Convert Tool " and this will work.This tells me that the software for this player is very outdated and explains why there is no MP4 container built in. It is using some old proprietary Chinese codec that got around licensing issues. Which one? I do not know. I am dinging this product 1 star just for listing that the player plays video as long as it is converted. No, it will not easily convert and the company provides no link or info on where to get the correct software.ps.. Please provide a website so we can download firmware updates instead of relying on someone to email us a file. It would also be cool if you open-source the code on a site like GitHub so some of us can fork it and make cool interfaces for it. This really is really a nice piece of hardware.
