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 compact dedicated music player built for distraction free listening, long trips, work, yard work, and other times when leaving the phone behind makes sense. It offers tactile buttons, wired audio, Bluetooth, and support for formats like M4A and Apple Lossless, with the CS43198 DAC noted as compatible with ALAC. The main practical appeal is avoiding phone battery drain, notifications, and storage hassles, especially when loading music onto an SD card. The key caveat is that the player has no built in memory, so storage depends entirely on the microSD card included or already owned.

i used to have tens of thousands of songs but between ripping everything, pirating, collecting album art, etc. it is just a waste of time and money
Not to mention when you get a new phone you have to set them all up again.
But when I try to teach people how to do it themselves, even when they ask me to teach them, they quickly tune me out saying that's too much work.
These DAPs aren't practical for everyone, but there's a certain niche of people who these suit perfectly.

It doesn't make sense to you and that's fine. Not every item in the world makes sense for every person in the world. 🤷

Within its price range, the Fosi Neo is the only DAP that offers the "Click Wheel," the touch-sensitive control used on the iPod. The only digital audio player with a similar concept is the Shanling Q2, which costs US$259. However, the Q2's "Click Wheel" functions solely as a volume control, whereas the Neo's can be used to navigate menus.

It seems to lock in the price between the 16gb & 64gb models. We'll see how this goes.
