I don’t want something I have to deal with some software like iTunes for and would rather plug in the device into any computer and move files and have the player automatically recognize it.

Want to use it when going for runs. Audio jack and Bluetooth support is a must. No need for anything else fancy

Edit: I came across the SanDisk 16GB Clip Sport Plus MP3 Player. Seems like it might be what I’m looking for. Anyone have any other simple mp3 players with Bluetooth support they recommend?

    Yeah I came across one sansa that has Bluetooth. It’s a shame these dumb device mp3 players got phased out. I found myself wanting one for when I don’t want to carry around a phone for something more compact while still delivering good quality sound.

      Sadly I think that market moved to smart watches. Or they tried to push it that way at least

        Been looking at mp3 watches too. Want something that is dumb. Don’t want to go running around with expensive smart watches that have become so popular.

            I would love an ipod nano since the build quality is so nice, but sadly they never introduced one with Bluetooth before they got discontinued. Curse these smart devices.

              You’d have to add a dongle. Very apple.
