Is there a default recommendation in TYOOL 2017 for an MP3 player to replace the hole left in my life after I lost my iPod Classic 5th gen in an aiport when I moved to Europe a few years ago? I don't have/want to have a mobile data plan large enough to support constant streaming (since I don't own a private mobile phone and my company phone only has a data plan of 1GB a month).

What's the general feeling about those Fiio things that basically look like a Chinese 6th gen iPod, but with storage on microSD? I'm always kinda terrified of going with a solution that relies on a microSD because of how delicate those things can be / prone to corruption.

How's the UI? I've heard people doing a little bit of complaining about how it doesn't look stellar.

I was also looking at some cheaper ones with a smaller formfactor, but a common thread among all of these MP3 players nowadays (at least, below the couple-hundred-dollar price point) is that the UI is utter trash or looks like an old Nokia screen from the late 90s.
