This is an amazing device. I am dyslexic and have trouble reading small print and large chunks of text as I get very tired and have to concentrate with the words fizzing and jumping about. I much prefer audio content and thus is so portable and easy to use. I can take it everywhere with me and link it to Bluetooth speakers and all types if headphones. I love the bright buttons, very eye catching and I won’t loose it in my bag. I love this little player!!! Thank you so much

Serious player, just brilliant.
This is a seriously nice piece of kit. I was cautious given the price but it is worth every penny. Put simply this is the best sounding, best built MP3 player I have owned. Having been through a few of the cheaper players on Amazon and found them poor quality and/or tricky to use, I thought I would give the Solo a go. What a revelation. I use it for audiobooks at home and music when I am in the gym. The sound quality is excellent, Bluetooth easy to pair and rock-solid with both my Sony and Audio Technica Bluetooth headphones. The buttons and mechanical controls are a breath of fresh air and although I am fully sighted it is a pleasure not to have to look at the Solo and easy and intuitive to operate when in my pocket. High-quality USBC charger is included instead of the usual charging lead. Highly recommended.

There is a real gap in the market for this type of device, operationally it’s excellent. Using ordinary headphones the output quality is great, the overall quality is good.
Carrying the device around whilst doing odd jobs around the house is a real plus
