I'm looking to buy a Walkman type MP3 player that I can use for music and MP3 Audio books.

 

I'd like inbuilt speaker plus's headphones but don't need Bluetooth.

 

I'm kinda looking at  Xiaomi Home IQQ New Model X3  

 

Any thoughts and personal experiences anyone would like to pass on ?

 

Thanks

 

 

You know it's fake, don't you? A no name product. But if it does the job...

Maybe search for: mp3 player with speaker

They are not difficult to find.

 

Why so unpleasant? Is this the norm?

A fake what?

 

It's an MP3 player by  Xiaomi what's fake about that????

 

I have a tyre inflator unit from Xiaomi that is very good and does what it says on the box, so it's a name I have some faith in.

My thought is that I wouldn't find such a small speaker very useful. If I wanted a speaker, I'd get a quality player w/ added bluetooth and use a portable speaker like a JBL Go (from the JBL store): https://www.lazada.co.th/products/jbl-go3-ip67-5-i1820182940-s5461572583.htm.

 

Appreciate your thoughts, but lugging around an extra speaker, even a small one seems to defeat the point of the on Walkman concept.

 

Anyway speakers have come a long way since our day, the quality from those mobile phone speakers is truly amazing.

Nothing to do with Xiaomi.

I'm not convinced. The several models of Sony Walkman don't include built-in speakers. Most of the time, with a portable player, you're listening through earphones or earbuds that you lug along with player. The sound would be preferable to built-in or portable external speakers anyway because vastly superior.

 

Lugging a small portable speaker in your bag or suitcase would hardly be onerous, and the sound would also be much better than that from "mobile phone speakers." You might first hit a gym for strength training.
