Want a dedicated MP3 player? Best Buy has some cheap options

Add as a preferred source on Google

Most audiophiles only need to buy from headphone deals to enjoy their favorite playlists, as smartphones and tablets have access to all of the best music streaming services. However, if you want to purchase a mobile device that’s dedicated to just playing music, then you might want to go old school and buy an MP3 player.

MP3 players aren’t as popular as they once were, but they’re still around if you know where to look. For example, Best Buy is offering discounts for a pair of MP3 players by SanDisk, the brand behind the SanDisk Clip Sport, which is the best fitness MP3 player in Digital Trends’ best music players. You can take advantage of a $10 discount for the SanDisk Clip Sport Go, bringing its price down to $40 from its original price of $50, and a $20 discount for the SanDisk Clip Sport Plus, lowering its price to $40 from its original price of $60.

The SanDisk Clip Sport Go is an MP3 player with an internal memory of 16GB, which can be expanded through an SD card slot. You can clip the device to your clothes while you’re working out or when you’re on the go, so you can choose a spot where your wired headphones won’t get in your way. The MP3 player features physical buttons and an LCD display for easy navigation, and you can load music to it through a USB 2.0 connection. It also comes with a digital FM tuner to listen to your favorite radio stations, and an integrated voice recorder. The SanDisk Clip Sport Go is available from Best Buy for $40, after a $10 discount to its original price of $50.

The SanDisk Clip Sport Plus is similar to the SanDisk Clip Sport Go in terms of its internal flash memory of 16GB, the clip design and physical buttons, and access to FM stations, but it comes with several additional features. The MP3 player is water resistant, so it’s ideal for outdoor use, and Bluetooth technology will let you connect your wireless headphones. Its internal rechargeable battery lasts for up to 20 hours of playback. The SanDisk Clip Sport Plus is also available from Best Buy for $40, after a $20 reduction to its original price of $60.

Sony has just revealed three new high-end Walkman music players, and yes, you read that right. In a world where most of us listen to music on our phones, Sony is still betting that audiophiles want a separate device for their tunes. The new lineup includes the flagship NW-WM1ZM3, the NW-WM1AM3, and the more “affordable” NW-ZX900.

Razer has launched the Barracuda V2 Pro, a new wireless gaming headset that is meant to work just as well away from a desk as it does in front of one. It costs $199.99 and comes with Hybrid Active Noise Cancellation, simultaneous 2.4GHz and Bluetooth audio, THX Spatial Audio+, and up to 70 hours of battery life.

The original Barracuda Pro followed much the same formula. We liked its understated design, balanced audio, and flexible connectivity, but the $250 price, loose fit, and weak microphone made the package harder to recommend. The interesting part here is that Razer seems to have gone directly after a few of those complaints.
