64GB USB MP3 Player with Bluetooth, AGPTEK U5PL 2 in 1 Type-C & USB Music Player with Clip, FM Radio, Recording, Support Mobile Phone Connection(Gray)

Purchased this for my new car which unlike the previous one had an SD slot for music. Loaded 1000+ MP3s ranging from Cole Porter, Louis Armstrong and Sinatra to Dua Lipa, Pink and Taylor. Turned it on, selected USB on the screen and the player is controllable via the controls on the steering wheel. It can take 15 to 30 seconds to play when first selected. After that the player starts immediately. When the volume is turned off the player pauses. There is never a need to charge the unit or remove it from the port unless you want to add more music. Very pleased with this player and it's small size.

Updated on 8 Mar 2024: they promptly reached out and replaced the unit. Older Review: I like the size and portability, but when i fully charge it, leave it a couple of days switched off and then I turn it on, it is usually fully discharged. Useless, when you need it.

I've been using this thing constantly for about 6 months. Get ready for a needlessly in-depth review: Electronic Specs: - 64GB feels like a good amount of room for audio files. I've migrated a ton of albums, including lengthy soundtracks, to this mp3 player and I still have room to spare. - The battery life has been decent. I can usually forget to charge it for a couple of days and be fine. On days when I'm at risk of running out of battery life, I can find time to charge it for an hour or so and get it back to a pretty full battery. - No complaints with audio quality, but also I'm listening to mp3 files. I'm no audiophile clearly. Doesn't sound distractedly tinny or anything and there is a built in equalizer (with presets) if you want to try and futz with that. The Listening Experience: - This device has played .mp3 .wav and .flac files without any trouble. There have been some .m4a files it doesn't recognize, but not all. May just be weird files on my end. - I've connected this device to both bluetooth headphones and car bluetooth. Media controls have functioned on both - Player has various repeat options and a shuffle option. The shuffle is true shuffle so you can go song 4 -> song 2 -> song 4 without hearing song 1. - The non-repeat, non-shuffle option will simply advance to the next album/artist/folder. While listening in the car, this transition often goes wrong with the player getting stuck on the first song of the subsequent folder. I'll need to go in and manually select the song to unstick it. - Car bluetooth does not recognize ID3 tags or file information (EVEN THOUGH I KNOW IT'S THERE I CHECKED). Is overall kind of janky as it will play but the bluetooth software on the car will tell me there's no media to play. - The screen will go to sleep after a bit of inactivity (even while music is actively playing). If there is no music playing the device will turn off. That means you need to wake the device up to play/pause/skip. If you're actively listening to music, the volume/skip buttons default to volume so you can mess with that on the fly. - Navigation with this form factor is pretty clumsy. No search, just scroll through your library using the up/down buttons. Some menus are weird. There is a dedicated settings menu, but additional options for listening to music are accessed by pressing the menu button on the now playing screen. Organization: - There are two main ways to navigate your music library: using the device's built in music menu which will organize artists/albums/soundtracks or just navigating the file directory - This device attempts to recognize metadata/id3 information but does not reach a level of quality to be reliable. - Sometimes it just doesn't recognize that there are id3 tags it can organize with - The music menu organizes songs purely on file name, not the title or track# - The music menu will get confused with long names. e.g. "Jet Set Radio OST" and "Jet Set Radio Future OST" will get grouped under one album even though they are two different albums. Same thing happens to artist names. - You can make playlists in the music menu using the device buttons, but it is cumbersome and you are limited to 3 playlists of 100 songs each. I wish you could be more flexible and make playlists on a computer when you plug it in and that the playlists were longer. - If you don't want to use the music menu, there is the folder menu which allows you to browse music files as they're organized on the device directory. This is what I prefer to use as I can organize my library with far more flexibility and control. - Main gripe with the folder menu is that while you can create your folders and sub-folders, the order of the items in that folder is determined exclusively by oldest->newest. Sometimes my library doesn't transfer over to the device in the correct order and will get shuffled up even though there are perfectly good numbered file names the device SHOULD be able to sort by. That means I have to be very mindful of moving files in bulk to make that action is moving files in the order I want. Otherwise you could do it one at a time by hand 🫠 Build quality: - Clip is garbage lol. I don't even use it and it still broke off in a few weeks - Otherwise the rest of the mp3 player seems durable enough for daily use. I have no concerns with throwing it loose in a bag for traveling, but I haven't really done a true stress test of the build quality in that way - The cap for the usb-c port is magnetic. Nice and strong six months later. No complaints. Kinda fun to fiddle with actually. - Sometimes the screen has a persistent white hue when I turn it on. No clue what causes it. This only started like 4 months into owning it - Buttons are still good after 6 months. Nice and clicky - I really like how small the MP3 player is. Makes it not too burdensome to carry around a separate device for music. I personally choose to put the mp3 player on a lanyard and wear it around my neck. There's a spot on the clip for that which would be great if the clip didn't get obliterated by the strain of having to exist. I just drilled a screw into the plastic where the metal rod for the clip went and looped the lanyard around that. Blind spots in this review: - this has sound recording capabilities?? no clue how good that is - FM radio exists

You have to long press one button, to get two other buttons to be volume control, but if short press the button, it acts a back button to exit the music player app . The 'plug into a phone' feature is super cool, and really really fast transferring files. I mean like stupid fast . I found it quite inpressive

So I used this product over 5 days. I was very excited for this and ready to tell my friends all about it, if it worked. Day 1: loaded my music, it said it had a full charge and worked fine for the most part. Day 2: couldn't use. Suddenly it had a dead battery after being left in my car for about 48 hours. Figured I would charge it and try the next day. Day 3: fully charge it with the connection cord, just to realize about 10% of my songs will start, play about 10 to 15 seconds and then skip it. I went back and deleted them, then reuploaded them from my phone, just for it to do the same thing. Whatever, some files are corrupt, I'll deal with it. Day 4: after being in my car for 24 hours I saw the battery was still fully charged! Awesome. It can hold a charge. Some files still won't play, oh well. But now I'm dealing with bluetooth connection. 1st time it disconnected but reconnected. 2nd time it disconnected and never reconnected. I'm returning and will be trying a Sansa Clip. I really wished this would've worked.

Works as advertised. Fast Delivery. User interface is not intuitive, but is eventually functional.

When searching for a way to use my speaker at the drive-in movie theater, I learned that most apps do not support drive-in theater's stations due to the delay. That's where this device comes in. I'm able to use this for the AUX while keeping the device charged through the USB-C port. Overall, it's been a good device for the cost and easy operation.

Review for "64GB USB MP3 Player with Bluetooth, AGPTEK U5PL 2 in 1 Type-C & USB Music Player with Clip, FM Radio, Recording, Support Mobile Phone Connection" Had it for 10 months. It did play after I loading music files and the sound and volume were fine for this level of player. I purchased for a long flight so I would not use up phone battery. It has confusing button controls that you need to think about for volume, song selection, and menu scrolling. Not difficult but not intuitive. It also frequently disconnects from my earbuds for no reason. Sitting still, player clipped to shirt collar on same side as earbud it frequently disconnected during the flight, most times waits a few seconds and reconnects missing a line or two of the song. On occasion it will not re-connect and I have to go to the menu and re-connect. Went to use it a few months after the trip and the clip broke off the back at some point while it was on my nightstand. The small plastic loops on the back that held the spring ends were broken off. I use it on occasion now while doing yard work but I would not recommend due to the constant disconnecting during playback. Never tried the radio.
