AGPTEK 64GB MP3 Player with Bluetooth, A19 2.4" Curved Screen Music Player

I've only had this device since 4/4, but as a regular user of MP3 players, I was able to go through most of the features to be able to provide a reasonable review. The Good/Great: For the money, this is actually a terrific little player. I was going to initially get the AGPTEK A02, but stepped up to this model and am pleased with my choice for like 5-7 more dollars. I've used a P3000 by Bassplay for about 8 years now, which still works well by the way, but I wanted the options of an FM radio and Bluetooth for my earbuds. Another nice side option is the voice recorder, which i have not tried yet. You can also record from FM Radio, again, a nice little feature I may or may not use. Sound quality is terrific and you will definitely notice the sound difference between your FLAC and lower quality MP3 recordings. There's also a pedometer, a stopwatch, a calendar, a clock and the ability to look at photos (The last of which I won't use, but still it's a nice option if you want). I loaded my music into the device by folders, and the device sorts by artists, folders, albums, genres and saved playlists. When you use the Shuffle feature, it shuffles through ALL songs, which my P3000 could not do (it would only shuffle songs in the root directory - anything in Folders was ignored when I'd try to shuffle all songs). There's a Micro SD slot and I can "Expand up to 128GB using a TF card (not included) for a total capacity of 196GB." Product description says the battery lasts 48 hours of continuous playing, but the device is still too new for me to make an educated determination regarding battery life. At 100g, this device is slightly heavier than the P3000, but it's still a light device, compared to some of the chunkier devices out there. Weight's not an issue for me, either way, as I use this device in my car, directly into my AUX. The build is solid and the glass front with touch buttons is nicer than I expected. The Not So Great: The included instructions are pretty basic and don't include everything. The menu is right there on the home screen, but it takes some getting used to and does not include all features and functions. You actually have to be "in" the music to see "Random, Repeat, etc" functions. This is the same with the equalizer settings. The first thing I did after loading up all my music was to connect my BT earbud and I had to crank up the volume all the way to hear the music at a normal level (not sure if this is due to my year-old earbuds or the device itself). I have not tried the included wired earbuds yet, but I do know they are required as the antenna for the FM radio. Supposedly you can save FM presets, but again, the instructions are bare minimum, and I can't figure out how to save the presets yet. Otherwise, it scans for all stations every time you try to use the radio. Summation: I love this device and I love that I spent under $40 for it. I'm getting a whole ton of bang for my buck. Only thing I wish they had included would be a little neoprene (or similar) sleeve to hold it in.

To anyone looking for a great music player that has good battery life, is durable, has a lot of storage, and has a great user interface and is easy to navigate... Then this is for you! I got this to listen to music with, and it is great! No sound quality is lost when transferred from your device to the music player, is not too light, but not too heavy, and doesn't overheat. The battery life lasts DAYS, more than a phone, which is surprising considering the size. Overall, I would DEFINITELEY recommend. Good luck out there, fellow shoppers!

So far the player works well, though I have only had it for a short time. I was a bit concerned after reading some of the reviews, but a few of them appear to be incorrect. For example, some reviewers claim the device cannot be turned off, which is simply not true. It can be powered down without any issue. Other reviews mention problems with the screen cracking. I cannot speak to long term durability yet, but the build quality seems reasonably solid for a device in this price range. As for reports of screen failures, that is something I will only be able to judge after using it for a longer period of time. Pairing with my Bluetooth devices was quick and trouble free. The lanyard included with the player is fairly cheap, but considering the low cost of the device it is not a big concern. One clear downside is the data transfer speed. File transfers are very slow, roughly between 800 KB/s and 2 MB/s. It also does not seem to connect reliably to a USB 3.0 port and works better when plugged into a USB 2.0 port. The operating system is very basic, so do not expect a modern or particularly intuitive interface. The screen quality is also fairly average, but that is not a dealbreaker for my use case. Overall, this device should work well for long walks when I want to listen to music without having to carry my phone.

I purchased this item to replace an old player that quit playing. I was happy with the previous one, and the exact player is still available for purchase today. However, I decided a rechargeable one was better than the AAA battery operated one that I have been so pleased with over the last 15 years. Boy, that was a great decision! I have been using the 32 GB AGPTEK MP3 player almost daily since purchase (10/2022) for about 8 hours each day. The size is perfect. It is big enough to see the screen clearly, but small enough to carry undetectable in my breast pocket or hand. The player is thin with curved edges and comfortable when carried in the hand. The sound is clear as a bell, and one charge lasts at least 4 days when used with wired earphones. (Using bluetooth earbuds or a bluetooth speaker was also great, but one charge lasts only about 2 days.) The radio feature is a plus and is crystal clear. I have encountered no reception problems. Loading new music is dummy proof and fast. I have loaded over 1000 songs and the player is not even half full yet. The main menu is clear and easy to understand and use. Navigating settings is a breeze, and music can be located by song title, album, artist, or genre. Of course, not everything about the player is great. If I start a playlist, the songs advance automatically, and there is a way to search for and see what is "now playing" on the screen. However, if looking at the playlist, the current song is not highlighted. The album/CD covers shown during playback rarely match up with the song that is playing. In fact, the picture seldom advances. (However, I can find the different album art and scroll through, so I know it is there.) What I dislike most about the player is that the artist name is not shown with the name of the song playing. If I could add one feature, I would make the screen a touch screen, but you can't have everything, especially at the affordable price I paid. This player definitely gets a five!!!

I had constant connectivity issues. Bluetooth connection would cut in and out if the speaker was more than 6 away. Even when I used it with aux it would misbehave. And now it's stuck in an endless, failed, power-on loop. Sound quality wasn't impressive or disappointing, I suppose. But at this point it's only value is as a paper weight. Would not advise purchasing his item.

I'm exclusively using this player for the audiobook function. I decided to get it because I've been using 4 different Sandisk Clipjams plus one Ruizu X02. I use these to review material for work, and I have various players because I keep different categories of information on different players. It's a system that works well for me, and the Ruizu is still going strong. Just as of a month ago, however, one after another the Clipjams have begun to fail, so it's time to move on. Last time I got a new player, the Ruizu X02, I also purchased the AGPtek A02 first. Physically the two units are identical; clearly they come from some original factory in China, and then companies like Ruizu and AGPtek print their name on the unit and put their individual stamp on the software. AGPtek blew it on the A02 because the sleep function doesn't work (See my review here https://www.amazon.com/gp/customer-reviews/R34SBX1501MGQ), so I kept the Ruizu and returned the AGPtek. But the AGPtek implementation of the software interface was better than the Ruizu's, so now that I need a new player, I decided to see if newer AGPtek units had solved the sleep-timer problem and decided to try the A19. The unit took my already-loaded 128g SD with no problem, and it applied the variable speed playback (up to "8", about 1.3x speed) perfectly to various audiobooks. This is important; sometimes (as in the Sandisk Clipjam) these players will apply variable speed and other options only to files saved on internal memory, not the extended disk. So good job there. The sleep timer works perfectly as well. If you power the unit off when it's in mid-play, it will power up and automatically continue playing exactly where you left off. These are the major features I absolutely must have in a player, and the A19X checks off those boxes. I also like the fact that you can lock and blank out the screen with the mere press of the main side button. The lock function of my current main player, the Ruizu X02, is nonfunctional. So why am I only giving the A19 three stars? Because it's got one major drawback which is very nearly a dealbreaker for me. This player is way, way too heavy. Obviously lots of reviewers aren't bothered by this, but I am. Basically what they've done is taken the A02, fixed the sleep-timer malfunction, made the user-interface graphics more snazzy (but still using the same organizational schema), encased the unit in metal instead of plastic, and given it a speaker. The speaker is what makes it so heavy--and boy is it overweight. The player weighs almost half as much as my smartphone, when it should only weigh a fraction (like, 1/40th or something). So that speaker ought to be worth the extra weight. Unfortunately, it's not. It's so wimpy that the only thing it's good for is going to sleep at night. It's OK for that if you stick it right next to your ear and you're sleeping alone (even at full volume its tiny output will be indistinct to someone just a foot away, but they'll still be bothered by the chirping). However, the speaker is utterly useless for anything else, and that stinks, because it made the unit many, many times heavier than the A02. For me this is a major problem. I hate the weight of my smartphone but I put up with it because I have to; and its speaker is actually loud enough to be of some use. I'd put up with the A19 if its speaker was as loud as my phone's because that would allow me to put it in my shirt pocket and do light (non-noisy) chores as I walk around the house--something I do sometimes with my phone. But the A19's speaker is way too wimpy for that. You can barely hear it when it's right next to your ear. So it's almost wholly useless, and I really, really don't want a player this heavy dragging in my pocket when I could be using the Ruizu X02 which weighs essentially nothing compared to this AGPtek gravity hog. In addition, I much prefer the Ruizo X02/AGPtek A02's physical buttons. These allow me to manipulate the unit while driving without taking my eyes off the road, and that's major. I don't need that very much, but it's very nice when I do. And there's no reason not to have physical buttons like the A02 did because despite having a smooth 'touch' exterior, the A19 does not have a true touch-screen like a phone. So they just should have kept the physical buttons like the A02 had. But you know what? I'm keeping the A19. The working lock-screen function is a big deal--I can't tell how many times I've been working on some project with the Ruizu X02 in my pocket, accidentally bumped the pocket area, and the Ruizu either pauses (therefore stops playing), turns off, or worse, jumps to another track in my audiobook. That's not a problem with this baby, and that's a big metaphorical weight of its own to balance out the literal weight of the unit on the scales of desirability. All in all, I guess I'll put up with the heavy unit in order to get the locking screen. ========================================= Edit: Two major new problems with a new version of this player, at least for me--speed control is much less fine-grained (you go from 7 options to speed up a track to only 2 options) and the power-down function is no longer configurable to the minute. Details: I ended up using this device as my bedtime go-to-sleep player, turning that heavy speaker I complain about (above) from a liability into an asset. It has, in fact, been an absolutely perfect player for going to sleep with. The little speaker is useless for anything else, but it shines in bed at night when the speaker can be close to your ear and it has little competition from ambient noise. Indeed, I can't see myself getting along without it anymore in that very specific use-case scenario. For that reason I decided this month that I'd better get a few more of them as backups. These are, after all, Chinese products which will probably last only 2 years or so, and I'll be getting there with this unit in another 6 months. I wanted to be prepared, so I ordered two more units. But upon testing I find myself very disappointed. Unfortunately, AGPTek has made two major changes in this regard either one of which would be a deal-breaker for me just by itself--and what makes me downright angry is that there is no sign whatsoever that this is the case. Not only is the unit's design exactly the same in all respects, it even retains the exact same _model name_! But AGPTek has changed their firmware. If you go to the old unit's "information \ Player info" submenu, you'll find the firmware version and date. My early-2024 player gives a date of "2022-06-13". The new player doesn't have an upper-level "information" submenu; this has been replaced by "About player". Below that, instead of "Player info", the sub-submenu is "System". Anyway, under that heading you still find the firmware info, and there you'll see the date as "2024-11-06". So in Nov. 2024 they made some changes. And if you want to use the unit as a sleep aid, these changes are bad. Indeed, the second change destroys all utility. Bad change #1: For some folks this won't matter much. For me, it is catastrophic. With the old firmware, the unit used to have a fine-grained speed control which you could increase in 8 increments up to x1.33. I always cranked it up to the max, but that was usually perfect. I sometimes wished for a bit more speed than that, but very seldom, and never more than x1.45. I also speed up audiobooks on my PC using VLC, so I've experimented a lot with speeding up audiobooks and I know what speeds work for me and what don't. Some audiobook narrators are slower than others, but like I said, I've never found any narrator so slow that I wanted to go past x1.5, let alone any faster, and usually x1.5 is too fast. Most narrators start edging into chipmunk territory at that point. So the old setup had it dialed in just about right. x1.33 seems to be the sweet spot for audio narration (other players such as the Sandisk Clipjam also max out at that speed.) The new firmware scraps that for just 4 presets, and one of them slows playback to -.5 rather than increasing speed; the other is stupidly useless (normal speed), yes that's necessary for getting back to normal but when you're only giving the user 4 stinking options you should consider Normal to be extra and make it 5, for crying out loud! Anyway, the only two speedup options are 1.5 and 2.0. As I noted before, the previous upper limit of x1.33 was in fact optimal most of the time--and now it's not even an option! Of the options they do offer, one is usually too fast, and the other is always too fast (waaaaaaaaaaay too fast)! Stupid, stupid, stupid! Bad change #2: Even if you don't care about the variable-speed debacle, this will be a deal-breaker for anyone interested in sleep usage. Since the whole use-case for this player and its tiny little speaker is limited exclusively to putting me to sleep, the sleep and power-down functions are absolutely central. And they've managed to screw that up too. After you get into the power-down submenu (called "Shutdown settings"), there are two options in the old 2024 version: "Sleep time" and "Power off". In the new unit these submenu titles have changed. Now they're called "Sleep timer" and "Power off timer". Unfortunately, this change is an ominous harbinger of something bad to come. In all fairness, the first "Sleep" function isn't by itself any worse on the newer unit than the older, because neither of them works. These options are the same in both models--you have presets for 1, 2, 3, 5 and 10 minutes, but they don't work. Once again: the "Sleep" menu didn't work on the early 2024 unit and they don't work on the newer unit either, so there's no change in functionality there. On the early 2024 unit the nonfunctional "Sleep time" options didn't matter because what did work was the "Power off" function. This was a wonderfully simple, straightforward box that allowed you to set the number of minutes you wanted the unit to stay on. You just pressed the right button until you reached the number of minutes you wanted, then pressed Play and you got a message that the unit's power-off time had just been set. Then you just go back to the main screen, start playing your audiobook, and finally press the physical button on the side of the unit to blank the screen, set it on the pillow beside you, and relax. After your specific number of minutes have gone by, it would shut itself off. With that fine-grained, exact control, the fact that the other "Sleep time" menu was useless doesn't matter. As I noted already, the "Sleep" functions don't work on either unit. And all of a sudden, that becomes really unfortunate because the idiots in charge of design decided to replace the fine-grained, precise-to-the-minute control which was offered in the early 2024 "Power off" submenu. Instead, in the new, late-2024 "Power off timer" submenu, now they offer presets beginning at 10 minutes. These do work, but they start at 10 minutes and go up in 10-minute increments from there. You cannot specify an exact number of minutes anymore. For me, that's a deal-breaker. Very often I'm exhausted and I know I won't last long, but I do need a few minutes of listening to help me go under more easily. I'll specify from 4 to maybe 8 or anywhere in between, depending on just how tired I'm feeling. Therefore to suddenly only have the option of 10, and then jump all the way to 20, and then 30 etc., is frankly awful. Here is where a working "Sleep timer" function would have helped. 5 minutes would often be a good balanced compromise for me. I doubt I'd use the 1 or 2-minute options, but sometimes the 3-minute one might get some play too. So if these worked I could see keeping the new version. However, as previously noted, these simply don't work. And yes, I've tested the newer unit exhaustively. I really wanted it to work. But it doesn't. Sayonara, AGPTek. Why change two options in which both give a user LESS control? Unless the greater-control options are excessively complicated to use, which neither the variable-speed control nor the power-off timer were, people always want more control! Idiots!

I have already lived a long life and own a tall shelf with music CDs. When Amazon stopped allowing me to also play some of my own CDs on my Kindle Fire I thought it was time to look into an mp3 player. The sound is best with ear phones or Bluetooth. Actually have not yet tried their ear phones since I had a nice pair. I have been impressed by how fast it uploads the music when you Sync it. While some of my CDs were converted into mp3, some must still have been as Wav files, but no matter it downloads them very fast. Transferring them from an external harddrive was no sweat at all. Windows Media Player was great one day and the next gave me problems. Eventually I found where my music files were stored (i.e. both Amazon and my own) on the computer and was able to download more. The Player also told me quickly when I had already downloaded something, so yes I am very impressed. Have not even tried the other features. Photos to me is a "no" since they show off much better on my Kindle. Same would probably be for the e-reader. Might try the pedometer one time and maybe some radio stations, but the main reason was to be able to listen to music. It connected both to my little bluetooth speaker and the large Vizio bluetooth speaker, no problems there either. I did quite a bit a research before making my decision but am now very happy. Already have 10 GB loaded of music. Yesterday I wanted to add some of my Amazon music files to the mp3 player and at some point I discovered that by right clicking on a track I could send it to Windows Media Player and once in Windows Media Player I could create a list, attach the mp3 player and the Sync button would light up and did the job. Amazon player no longer shows the tracks, just plays the music.

I received the package 2 days earlier than scheduled and I am very happy with the product so far. I actually tried most the features before writing this review. I was able to connect it to my mac pro laptop to transfer close to 170 songs. The buttons are really easy to navigate. You do not need an earphone to listen to music and the speakers are quite good. You only need the earphone to listen to the radio. The bluetooth works very well and I can connect to my external speaker with no issue. So far, I have not experience any disconnection. I love the fact that the mp3 player shuts down if it is not being used after few minutes. I did not charge the battery before using it and it has only dropped one bar. It has other nice features like Pedometer, Recorder, Calendar, Clock, Stopwatch. You can view photos and watch video. This is a good buy at the price and I am happy with it.

Buen reproductor para el uso diario. Se escucha notablemente bien, presenta diferentes niveles para justar el volumen, no pesa apenas, presenta una interfaz intuitiva, el bluetooth detecta rápido mis auriculares, por el momento la señal no se me ha colapsado con la señal de otros dispositivos, reproduce ordenadamente las canciones siempre que en la copia estén ordenadas alfabéticamente por autores y canciones, cuenta con botones retroiluminados que facilitan el paso de las canciones si no hay mucha visibilidad o sufres de miopía, tiene radio, la batería dura el tiempo que se explicita en la descripción... El mejor reproductor con bluetooth por menos de 60 euros que he encontrado en Internet.

This is my third unit and it is a marvel. Way superior to the previous two. I used my previous two so much that I literally wore them out. The first died when the battery would not recharge. Have since learned that you never ever let the battery go so low that it shuts off. The second one still works, but I ruined the earphone jack because of the way I was using it. Won't do that anymore. You need the wired headphone because it becomes the antenna for pulling in the FM radio stations. Does a great job of scanning in the local stations BTW. This new one just blew me away. It is a slightly larger size which is great for holding and looking at the screen. The sound quality is great and this little marvel works well with wired headphones and bluetooth. I was blown away by how far the bluetooth transmits the sound to my headphones. I left the player downstairs and walked around the house upstairs and everything came through loud and clear. That was a shock. Stll getting used to way the folders are set up for opening up the music files, so it will take a little while. The sound off my MP3 files is just nuts...sharp and clear and clean. This player also comes with several pre-sets for adjusting the sound for your music or you can adjust to hear the sound the way you like it, which is what I did. Indeed, I like this one so much that I am debating on ordering a second one. Recording off of FM radio and recording off of the built in speaker. These work just fine. For example, if there was a special program coming up on your local FM station and you wanted to record to hear later..boom simple easy. You could also download files (podcasts) and then load on to your micro card and insert the card to listen to the program later. So if you are looking for a nice playback devise for working out in the gym, taking a walk, mellowing out before hitting the sack and you do not want to use your cell phone....this is the answer.

Making Fool, Device didn’t start, waiting for refund since last one month

Beter spaar je door voor een goede speler, zit totaal geen logica in de volgorde van je mappen. Ik had hem gevuld met FLAC bestanden, maar de kwaliteit was zeer slecht.

Es muy fácil de utilizar, buena compra
