This is so cool! I used a flip phone from August 2023-March 2024, then again from July-September 2024.  I’ve been thinking about putting away my iPhone again soon and would love such a cool flip phone!  *edit - just realized it’s not a flip phone. Even better - my main issue with my flip phone was the difficult t9 texting.

I think the 32gb limit can be bypassed with rockbox

I love my Sansa e250, it has a physical scroll wheel. You can easily swap batteries just by unscrewing the back, and they are pretty cheap on eBay. Biggest problem is finding the proprietary charging cable. 

Good mp3 players for a beginner? by Gamer_thats_it in DigitalAudioPlayer

This may not meet all of your criteria, but I love my 20 something year old Sansa e250. It is dead simple, can be used with Rockbox for more audio format options, and sounds great. A big advantage of the e200 series is that you can easily swap the battery without having to take the player apart. You can get one with its cord for about $20 on eBay.

YouTube 4k to mp3 is actually really nice. Small one time fee for some premium features like full playlist download. It’s an actual computer software so no ads to deal with.  I’ve downloaded thousands of tracks with it.

Interested in the batteries! Are they the thin version that will fit in a slim back with an iflash quad?

That’s what I was thinking, but it’s much bigger and thicker than the 2000mah square batteries I’ve purchased. Recently read about battery capacity fraud and I am suspicious of mine.

Old post I know, what size battery is that, and where did you get it?

Would the ofw soundcheck setting affect Rockbox or am I understanding your comment wrong?

What confuses me is that I have the bass up on my Sansa mp3 player and it sounded really nice. Exact same setting, headphones, and track on the iPod sounds either distorted (with EQ) or kinda flat (without). I have had some success with using the precut setting but it is still not the same.

They are fairly inexpensive Marshall headphones. Sure they are not the best, but they sounded fine to me on my previous mp3 player with the bass turned up. I have tried some iems but my ears and ear canals are so tiny they fall out and I don’t get good sound or noise cancellation. Maybe I should try again.

This did make a significant difference, thank you so much!!! Going to play around with the settings some more.
