I know. We've got our phones that can do all this. Why do we want a dedicated player?
One reason people go for devices like this one is for the experience of listening to music with no interruptions or distractions. No phone calls, no notifications, just a little break away from the world to enjoy some of your favorite tunes.
Another reason is battery anxiety. It's a real thing from some people. The ability to listen to music without worrying about running your phone battery down can bring peace of mind and absence of worry.
The third reason isn't really a factor at this price point, but higher end digital audio players have much better quality DACs and other components than are found in phones and the listening experience can be much better with the right source material.
Fosi is a respected Chinese audio brand and isn't fly by night. You could do a lot worse than this one if you're looking for something inexpensive.
I like these DAP's because I pop the sd card out, reload and unload music via Explorer, and move on. Phone stays in the pocket
Community Reviews
The Fosi Audio DAP Neo is a small dedicated music player built for distraction free listening, with tactile buttons, wired audio, and a pocketable form that fits work, yard work, travel, or leaving the phone behind. It also avoids phone battery drain and the hassle of loading large music libraries onto an iPhone, while the CS43198 DAC is noted as supporting Apple Lossless and M4A playback. The main catch is that storage is microSD based with no built in memory, and the bundled card may be less appealing than using your own larger trusted card. Bluetooth is also limited to the lowest codec, so it makes the most sense for wired listening and simple offline use.
Commuters who want distraction-free listening, because it plays music without calls or notifications draining a phone battery.
People who keep a large offline library on microSD, because swapping cards and loading files through Explorer is straightforward.
Travelers on long flights who want a pocket music player, because it handles a big FLAC library without tying up a phone.
Parents sending kids out with music, because a pocket-sized player is easier to carry than an iPad and less risky to hand over.
People who need a simple out-of-box library, because storage depends on a separate card and the included card may be low-end.
Buyers who want built-in storage, because the player runs entirely from a microSD card.
Listeners who expect Bluetooth-first convenience, because it uses the lowest Bluetooth codec instead of higher-quality LDAC.
