Anyone use standalone mp3 players with built in speakers? Thoughts on what's good? (hexbear.net)

The past few years, I've been doing most of my music listening off my phone. I use soulseek and just download right to my music folder, but with that comes obsessively hunting for obscure bands and filling up memory fast.

I don't use headphones and just let my phone speakers play it pointed at my head out of my breast pocket. I started seeing that some companies make phone sized mp3 players with built in speakers for less than 50. Excuse the Amazon link, but it's just intended to show what im actually looking at.

So yeah, anyone use these? Do you like the one you have? Is it louder than your phone?

Thanks! Will check that out! My immediate question is if they make ones that might be pocket sized like these little things

I think you could fit the trip in a big pocket. Also it's basically a copy of a JBL mini speaker (Go 3 or Go 4) that is even smaller, though 3-4X the price.
