I want to buy an MP3 player.
Am I correct in observing the current trend is that the functions that used to be handled by MP3 players are now handled by cell phones?
The player that I want must have at least 32GB of external memory - preferably 64GB.
So, it must be able to accommodate an external memory card containing 64GB.
Can anyone here tell me which MP3 players are the best and which are the worst?
I am very puzzled by the wide range of prices. I recently bought a Hipstreet player. It cost me about $30. I also bought a 32GB external Micro SD card which also cost me $30.
It had beautiful specs including a beautiful TouchScreen user interface. Unfortunately, it also had some terrible problems. Just take a look at the following user opinions:
My upper limit on price is about $200.
FYI, here are some of the functions that modern MP3 players offer:
alarm clock, AM/FM radio, calculator, calendar, E-Book reading, stopwatch, timer, to-do list, create notes & memos, recorder (records voice, pictures and videos)
Strange as it may sound, the price of these things makes no sense to me. The price certainly does not seem to have anything to do with the functions offered.
I can't make any sense of the prices. It may just be based on the company name and the fact that better known companies can charge much more than lesser known companies.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Just consider what people said after they bought the Hipstreet MP3 Player.
Most of the people who bought it now say they hated it. But, I have to wonder about the veracity of all the above opinions. There were two reviews from people who loved this unit, but all the rest hated it. I got a very strong feeling that some of these reviews might have been written by people who are related to "Hipstreet" while others may have been written by people who work for a competitor company. I'm not saying that is true. But it sure does raise suspicions for me. Anyway, if you take a look at the above reviews, I'd really like to know what you think.

I would really appreciate if anyone with first hand knowledge can recommend a good MP3 player for me. TIA.
