HiByDigital M300 Android MP3 Player with Bluetooth and WiFi Streaming Player Android 13 Snapdragon 665 HiFi Audio (PCM/DSD) FM Radio Speaker Touchscreen 32GB + 2TB Expandable Storage

Like a lot of people I suspect, I had fallen into the routine of using my smartphone for listening to music, as it’s super easy to have all your music in one place and it goes everywhere with you.Not that I am an audiophile, but I always want to get the best I can from my devices, and that meant using a separate DAC/AMP with my phone and wired headphones. Generally this works, but what it does introduce is a heap of usability issues of having to carry cables, adapters, two devices and finally headphones. This for me was not sustainable.Enter the HiBy Digital M300. My main aim was two-fold, I wanted a player that would simplify my set up, and secondly would sound good. My previous DAP (Activo CT-10) fixed the first ask, but the second, sound quality was very lacklustre.So after a lot of watching reviews, I wanted a device that was small, connected to the major streaming platforms (I personally use Apple Music), and would allow me to store my music offline. It came down between this and the HiBy R4, but in the end, the specs are very similar and the M300 is smaller.I have been using the M300 for a few days, and I am not disappointed on two fronts. Firstly, for a small device, it is perfectly usable for someone with big hands like me! The Android 13 software whilst not lightning quick, is fast and responsive, and my music library of over 300GB of downloaded music scrolls perfectly well.The other aspect was the sound quality, and I am pleased to say this is a marked step up from my last DAP device. Using no EQ, MSEB or PEQ at all, I have found the M300 to sound clean, crisp and fairly neutral. I have used a variety of headphones and IEM’s including a pair of planar magnetic beasts, and whilst I have to push to volume from the M300 to +70% they drive them fine and sound good.All this in a small, compact and flexible device that can sit in a pocket and I avoid cable hell!I bought this through Amazon warehouse, and got a bargain at £149. In my opinion, this is excellent value for money at full price, offering a lot of functionality and great sound quality for everyday listening.I use Apple Music along with a microSD card in the M300 to store my downloaded high resolution lossless files. Works perfectly.

I love this little music player. I wanted something I could use to listen to music and audiobooks without using my phone. This does the trick nicely. I can download my audiobooks from audible and my music from Amazon music over WiFi without any cables or needing to connect to a pc and listen to them whilst on the go. Anything you usually get the app on the App Store for, you can use. It’s incredibly versatile. The battery is great, the music quality is good through earbuds, the build is solid, the portable size is just right, and it screams class. I wish there were more accessories for it, but the player itself is amazing. Not the cheapest, but not expensive, and it is well worth it. Very happy with my HIBY. It’s like a smaller and better version of the old classic IPod and exactly what I wanted and more. The only thing it lacks is dab radio when not in WiFi range, but does have fm and means my other half is less likely to pinch it to listen to the match whilst out and about.

Just had this a couple of days. All works as it should.No problems downloading and using Spotify and Amazon Music.Great quality and works smoothly.Can't comment on battry life yet.Interface is a little small but its only a small screen.After owning the unit for a couple of months, I’m updating my review. I still like it—the usability and sound quality are excellent. However, I have to agree with some earlier reviews about the battery life. It’s poor, giving me only about 12 hours of playtime. Lowering the screen brightness might help, but with its small size, that’s not a practical solution for me.

Whilst the functionality is decent enough for a device with this specification, the M300 clearly has battery protection issues, which presents a serious safety concern. Currently in contact with Hiby to see how they intend to resolve the issue. A quick search will tell you that I am far from the first person to experience this.

No idea what all the negative reviewers have brought, nothing wrong with the OS at all. It's very well made and reminds me of a sony mp3 player but better value.With decent phones it sounds great and its great for the purpose intended.I have the 128gb version 4gb ram and its speedy.

A very impressive player, especially when considering the low price.Does everything I want from a DAP, but comes in a much smaller form factor.I've had DAPs that cost 3 times as much as this one, but I don't think they were as good.Some people might want a 4.4mm balanced output, in which case this isn't the DAP to buy, and battery life isn't great.But I found it easy to set up and use, it was much quicker scanning my music library than other players, and it has Android so if you don't like the installed Hibi music player app you can easily install a different one (in my case Musicolet, which has everything I want, with a nice user interface, and is FREE)When compared to much more expensive players, this is just as good, if not better, so it is any easy 5 stars from me.

Likeable DAP looks good and feels good for the price.More importantly with playing with the eq sound good too.BUT the UI was appalling and the play would and did random things all by its self.Faulty so sent back.A shame as if working right would have been great.Fast delivery and return,refund.
