not perfect, but really like this player
happily using with no google account. i've installed some apks using my sandisk 256GB card, including media monkey. but the preinstalled sony app is nice to use, simple, and has a great shuffle algorithm, if you prefer it. i love the direct sound, it's like hearing my music for the first time... even though most of it is high-quality formats or cds, i wasn't hearing it as great as it really sounds, because i'm mostly using a computer instead of a stereo, and i don't have a huge budget or a lot of knowledge. i feel like android is bulky for me and would buy a player without it, but you can make it pretty unobtrusive. also this thing needs the ability to put a strap or leash, i didn't see one offered here, but it's a slippery lil thing and it will jump out of your pockets if you're not careful.

Not the best for the price.
Got this shortly after Christmas and the sound quality is a firm "medium." The device itself is not compatible with Android Auto/Apple Carplay, unless you download a 3rd party music player app. Even then l, you must increase device volume to near maximum, as well as the car console volume. Auxiliary input is much worse, you must make sure both devices (player and car) are at maximum, and remember to turn the car volume DOWN before disconnecting, or you will suffer a splitting headache. Interface is standard for any Android based device, and usage is comparable. Native player app, has no discernable way to separate music by genre, and any downloaded podcasts or audiobooks are inaccessible in native app. Again, a 3rd party app would be recommended for this. The asking prince is ridiculously high for the minimum possible features.

Doesn't work in a tesla
You'd think the music and video standards would be Bluetooth agnostic but I guess not. 2 different devices and no luck, all it sees are the never to be connected Bluetooth points in the tesla
