It’s great. I keep it in my fanny pack.

Edit: it’s a uniherz jelly star (green)

    I fuckin LOVE the Jelly Star! I use it as my music player. Expandable memory, headphone jack, runs BlackPlayer and Podcast Addict. Don’t need it to do anything else in the world. Wonderful device.

      are the jelly phones good again? I owned a unihertz jelly as my main phone for years but I had to replace it twice from it bricking, and when I bought new ones they almost didn’t let me buy it, I had to check all these boxes that I understood their phones are not typical, etc. - seems like quality had suffered immensely, especially around the pandemic … so maybe the quality is improving?

        I use mine virtually every single day, albeit for playing music and podcasts and a little bit of web browsing and not much else. If the camera were better it would have become my primary phone.

      How’s the sound? The 4g version is $99, that’s cheaper than replacing the battery in my iPod classic but those things have really good sound chips

        I rip CDs to 320 kbps mp3s, and my ear is good enough to say that it sounds good compared to older, lower-quality mp3s that I’ve still got rattling around in my collection. I have no complaints, but I bow to the serious audiophiles who know their hardware better than me.
