I think phones have generally taken over MP3 players because you can do everything an MP3 player does on your phone.
But I recently bought one because I just like a single device having that unique purpose of playing music.

Used to keep about 10 gigs of MP3s on my phone, but my most recent one doesn’t have a headphone jack. Really kicking myself for caving on the lack of that feature. Almost looking forward to this phone breaking just so I can find a model with that 3.5mm aux and go back to using it as an MP3 player.
Also fuck bluetooth headphones.
I use streaming services these days but my next phone will definitely still have a 3.5mm. I’m not an audiophile but my 10€ Phillips wired earbuds audio quality would be matched by bluetooths at 5-10x of their pricetag. The wireless buds I have are only 4 imes as expensive as the wired and audio quality is worse, they often lose signal and they tend to fall out of my ear regardless of which rubber plug I use.
