There are a bunch of Kosher MP3 players on sale on Groupon.

But for not very special prices.

The players cheaper (or at least the same price) elsewhere:

Prices don't seem to be any better than other stores on the models I'm familiar with

Looking for an mp3 player without internet that has 1.5-2x playback speed, preferably touch. Any advice?

The one I posted above has that ability IINM, but it has radio access.

Thanks!
This is for myself to listen to shiurim at a quicker speed, so I don't mind the radio, as long as it has no internet capabilities.

It's back to a really good price. I got it at about $25, but it's been between $40 and $50 since. Now it's back at $25.

How is the quality? Will it last?

Seems really strong. My kids put it through a lot, and it is very durable. One of my devices had a software issue at one point, but I think it later resolved itself.

Thanks! Just ordered.
P.S. I like your first 2 posts but had a hard time liking the last one because I didn’t want to tip it over 12345 likes…
Edit: just realized the first like already accomplished that.

(But, indeed, you won't get those for like $20-$30 you can get non-gekoshered ones.)

I found this one that looks like a decent option.

+ Has no radio (it's not in the product listing/details/description, and confirmed in the Q&A by several answers)
+ It is cheaper than any of the "kosher" ones (it's now $31.5 after the 10% clip coupon, but it was already $30 and even $23.5 at one point)
+ USB-C (Micro-B is the worst, most fragile, connector ever)
+ Comes with 3-year warranty (though not sure what it covers or how responsive they are)
- Has no built-in speaker
- 16 GB built in is not much (but can be used with an SD, so not a big deal)

Seems to have a bit buggy software and choppy Bluetooth but looks like a decent option.

When you say best, do you mean that it can be expensive? Or cost-effective?

I use a relatively cheap one, but it doesn't last very long. My kids like it however, and it has bluetooth, so I use it, but I've had to buy new ones every few months.

I also tried a non-kosher equivalent for half the price recently, and my kids still didn't figure out that it has radio. It was $25 when I bought it a few months ago, but it seems to be higher now.

DODOSOUL 64GB MP3 Player, Music Player with Bluetooth 5.2, Shuffle, Single Loop, FM Radio, Built-in HD Speaker, Voice Recorder, Mini Design, HiFi Sound, Ideal for Sport, Earphones Included ($49.99 )

Does the fast-forward/rewind function handle like a Samvix or like a SanDisk?

We have like 3 or 4 kosher music players in the house just by using old flip phones and the phones designated for the kids when running errands etc. From this deal here. https://forums.dansdeals.com/index.php?topic=134538.msg2751510#msg2751510. They have all the capabilities like regular MP3 and Bluetooth too.

As I wrote above, the Majority one from Amazon is a pretty good cheap option. https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0CX1X8WH1

Thanks! I actually looked through the whole thread and saw your post but the link expired so I thought it wasn’t around anymore…

Yeah, they made a new iteration of the same thing and gave it a new listing. It's the same exact thing with a bit newer software (but no noticeable change.)
