I just bought an Innioasia Y1, which is an iPod classic clone for $50.

Put an unofficial Rockbox port on it and installed a 512gb micro SD card. Ignoring the mediocre DAC and comparatively unresponsive click wheel it's pretty good. I finally have my entire music library with me again and look at my phone less often (both of which were goals of getting an mp3 player again).

I was big into mp3 players 15-20 years ago and used Rockbox on all of them so this is really nice especially at the price point.

PS: They are working on a Y2 that improves upon a lot of things. The Y1 was marketed as a kids device but is awesome with Rockbox on it and went viral the past few months.
