RUIZU 32GB MP3 Player with Bluetooth 5.3 Auto-Reconnect, 80H Playback

I've been looking for a good audiobook mp3 player since my SanDisk battery model died. SanDisk Clip is good but I've still been looking. Tried about 4 but a good audiobook oriented player is getting harder to find. Short run time, random progression of files, fiddly controls, loosing their place in a book when turned off. Finally I found what I wanted. Easy controls; no confusion of file order. It will even go fast backward into the end of the previous file if you want to review something. Also graduated speeds for fast forward and backward. I switched to FM for a while (good reception) in the middle of a book, went back to "Music", "Resume" and it was exactly where I left off in the audiobook. Good battery; just finished a 14 hr book and the battery symbol still looks full. Works fine with Bluetooth speaker but not hearing aids; I haven't found any that did. I'm buying one for my wife and one for yoga and workout music.

We bought these MP3 players for the kids, and they turned out to be absolutely amazing; we all love them so much! Thanks to the generous 64GB storage, we were able to easily upload all of their favorite songs and audiobooks. The devices are the perfect size for kids' hands, highly portable, and look incredibly cute. The sound quality completely exceeded our expectations, and the battery life lasts a long time on a single charge. The screen and menu navigation are so practical that the children can use them independently without any trouble. It's a perfect product for them to enjoy technology safely, definitely 5 stars!

Part of my review is influenced by a previous MP3 player made by a different company. That one was barely adequate, and cost more than this Ruizu. My primary use is for podcasts, lectures, sermons, articles that I rendered to MP3 through text-to-speech, audio books, and so on. If it had all the features I would *like* to have, it would be too expensive for me to purchase. Even so, I have more than I expected, and better than that other player. Like my unlamented previous player, there are certain features and procedures that the user simply needs to learn how to use. Sometimes we just have to push buttons and click around until we find out how something works. Don't worry, there are two resets: one to erase all MP3s, and the other to take it back to factory settings. Since I am not a teenaged girl, I have to operate the Ruizu with my adult male fingers. This can be difficult at times, and I have to set it down for more precise operation. The sound quality is good, which is expected. The equalizer function works, although some of the classifications do not seem to make much difference. Still, I can find a good setting; sometimes a spoken word file has been poorly recorded, and a different equalizer setting is a great improvement. The shuffle function seems to work only in a specific folder and not throughout the device, which is something I greatly prefer; I don't want to be rocking out to DeGarmo and Key and then find myself listening to a Greg Bahnsen lecture, for instance. You can set a maximum volume level, which is useful when playing an old recording and then having a newer one come on that is recorded "hotter" and louder. When plugged into the computer, you can add and delete folders, but they cannot be reordered. I do not *want* the Music, Picture, Video, and Books folders appearing above my own Podcasts folder, but I just click down a few times. The Ruizu has a clock which keeps reasonably good time. There is also an alarm that can be set, but I found no use for it. There is a sleep timer, but I do not know the purpose. (I hope it is not literal, people have had serious problems listening to an MP3 player when it's charging.) I have no use for the pictures function, nor the video. On this tiny screen? Also they must be in the proper format before uploading. The ebook reader fooled me because I thought it would take a document uploaded in TXT format and do a text-to-speech reading, but it only shows you words on the small screen. But I did not buy this player for those things, and it does what I need. There is a "screen lock" function. At first, I thought it was odd. Then I had the player in the front pocket of my pants and the fabric pressure changed what I was listening to, so that feature can be very useful. The instruction manual is almost worthless. If someone has had other players or familiarity with electronic equipment, they can sometimes learn more by tinkering with the player. The fast forward and rewind functions are weird. Yes, they work, but the time is not a steady stream, but in bursts, It appears that if you are moving forward or backward for any amount of time, you advance through minutes and not seconds. The instructions do not say. Another quirk that the user must become familiar. My main grievance is the "bookmarks" function. It is *very* inconsistent, often not working AT ALL, and other times it works again. If there is a trick to switching that function on and off, I have not found it. I followed the instructions (such as they are) to no avail. The bookmark is helpful when I'm in a 3-hour podcast and want to mark a location for later reference or just something that I can return to if my large shaky fingers send my Chris Plante podcast to the beginning and I wanted to listen from the 2-1/2 hour mark. The battery is very good. Because my last player was fussy, I charge the Ruizu every night, having made it run about 6-7 hours each work day. I forgot to charge it one day, but it did not matter for the battery life, and I got through the next work day without any problem with the player running down on me. So, there are some drawbacks that bother me but may not matter to other people. I plays MP3s, I can find them, good battery life, some features I did not expect that are beneficial. I have been using this player for 7 weeks and made it work five (sometimes six) days a week. It has been reliable.

Apparently, they created a new version of the product. I know this, because that's what the manual is for. But it talks about features that the delivered device doesn't have. The user interface is truly atrocious. The pathetic thing about it is, I wouldn't care at all if they simply included the correct manual. I don't mind learning a difficult interface. But when the interface is not discoverable, and various features require pressing multiple buttons simultaneously, then you have to be able to look it up and find out which buttons to press. There is no other way. If instead of the WRONG manual they had included a web address of a PDF with the correct manual, the problem would be significantly reduced. But this is just intentionally dishonest; they printed the wrong number of manuals, or built the wrong number of devices, and just mix-and-matched. But they don't have the same software. They don't have the same menus. If you change the software, you should update the product model number and this would never happen. A simple and important feature like the screensaver settings are listed in the manual, but not in the device menu. Does this mean you can't change the settings? Who knows. The interface also lags really bad. Press pause; now press play. There is such a long delay between pressing the button and the music starting that the natural instinct is to press it again; but if you do that, it plays about 1/5th of a second of music and then pauses again. Immediately. If the music is paused and press play/pause twice, rapidly, it instantly plays this short blip of music before returning to being paused. But if you just press it once, it sits there thinking about it before even starting. Very klunky interface. The sound quality is pretty bad, too. Setting the EQ to "rock" gives a flatter response than "off," they simply didn't bother tuning the defaults to give a flat response. So none of the EQ settings do what they were intended to do! All they had to do was tune the no-EQ settings, and the EQ formulas would all be good. But without that, they're not. Overall, the experience is worse than one of those old USB stick players with no screen and 3 buttons. The one and only advantage of this device is that it is rechargeable.

I bought the RUIZU MP3 player for my son’s after‑school workouts and it turned out to be the ideal solution for anyone who wants to enjoy music without the temptation of a smartphone nearby. The 64 GB of onboard storage holds thousands of songs, so there’s never a need to constantly sync or worry about space. Bluetooth 5.3 connects instantly to wireless headphones and stays stable even during vigorous runs, while the built‑in FM tuner provides a quick way to catch the news or a favorite station without turning on a phone. The interface is deliberately simple—large icons, a clear backlit display, and a single‑press play/pause button make it easy for kids and for anyone who doesn’t want to fumble through menus. Battery life is impressive, delivering up to 20 hours of continuous playback, which means a full week of workouts or a weekend road trip without hunting for a charger. One feature that truly sets this player apart for me is the “night‑mode” alarm. You can load soothing tracks or a gentle FM broadcast and set the device to wake you up, all while keeping your phone out of the bedroom. It’s a great way to avoid falling asleep next to a buzzing smartphone and still have quality audio at hand. The sturdy clip on the back lets the player attach securely to a belt or backpack, and the splash‑resistant case survives accidental drops and light rain—perfect for sports practice or outdoor adventures. Overall, the RUIZU 64 GB MP3 player delivers high‑capacity storage, reliable Bluetooth performance, and a distraction‑free listening experience in a compact, kid‑friendly package. Highly recommend for anyone who wants music, radio, and an alarm without the constant pull of a cell phone.

Hi, this is going to be my personal review of the Ruizu X02. I’m going to begin my review by stating the things I immediately disliked before I move on to the things I like. So first of all, as another reviewer stated, this is a very weird device and the reason is due to the UI. Instead of having dedicated buttons for specific functions, most of the “would-be” normal functions are hidden. The buttons that serve as the main functions are as followed: Rewind (|<<) – Also serves to move left, move up, or to go to the previous track. Fast Forward (>>|) – Also serves to move right or move down Play/Pause ((>||) – Also serves to put the player into sleep mode when pressed and held. Pressing and holding the button will wake the unit back up, which then allows you to resume where you left off. Menu (M) – Displays hidden menu options. Press and hold to also serve as the Screen Lock function. Only functions to move up in the Main Menu. Volume (VOL) – Must press and hold for volume screen to appear, which one then must use “Rewind” or “Fast Forward” buttons to adjust the volume. Also serves to back out of a directory when browsing. Only functions to move down in the Main Menu. What makes the function of these buttons so un-intuitive is that they don’t function exactly in the way you would expect them to and they take a little bit of tinkering to get adjusted to, especially if you are coming from DAPs that have more straight forward functionality. For instance, when you are browsing through any directory in the player except for the main menu itself, instead of pressing what you would think would function as the “Up” and “Down” buttons (which in this case would be the “M” to serve as “UP” and “VOL” to serve as “Down”) you instead have to browse by pressing the “Rewind” or “Fast Forward” buttons. Then you have to press the “VOL” to back out of the current directory that you are in. If you have backed out of a directory and want to return back to the song that was playing, you would have to press the “M” button and that would bring up the option to return to the song that is “Now Playing”. Again, the only time the buttons function as you would expect is when you are in the Main Menu. It’s a pretty weird setup that could’ve easily been remedied if they had added the appropriate buttons. ALL of the buttons are on the front of the unit. There are none on the sides or top. The only physical switch is the power switch, which is located on the bottom. Another personal gripe is that when you press the Rewind button to start over a track, it will instead instantly go to the previous track instead of simply starting over the current track from the beginning. This is quickly remedied by quickly pressing the Fast Forward button to return to the track, but it is still an annoying inconvenience. I experienced the same thing with my Ruizu X52 and AGPTEK B03 DAPs. It must be a common design flaw among these cheap brands. Another gripe I noticed is that when a track starts there will be a very brief fade-in instead of starting at regular volume. My final gripe is that I noticed when a song is playing, if the encoded information is too long it will not display the full information, despite the fact that it will slowly scroll across the screen. Despite the rather strange UI and a few gripes, it is otherwise a good player. I haven’t so far had any issues with random shuffling of tracks like I did with my previous Ruizu X52 (with the “Shuffling” feature turned off, mind you). The micro SD card works properly and I had zero issues with it being detected by my PC, nor had I had any problems loading files onto it. Mind you, I haven’t yet attempted to load any songs onto the actual player itself. The sound quality and volume is decent (also unlike my previous Ruizu X52, which only had a max volume of 30 and was pretty low by comparison). As advertised and as stated by other reviewers, it has EXCELLENT battery life. I personally don’t care to use the other functions such as Video, Photos, Recordings, or Ebook as that is not what I intended to have the player for. I use it as a bare bones DAP and for that it works. In all honesty though, due to the overall cons I wouldn’t see myself using this as the “go-to” DAP in my collection. I would only use this if I’m at work or doing any other activity and need a cheap backup player, while reserving a better designed player for more enjoyable listening experiences. UPDATE: I have been using this player almost daily. It took some getting used to the weird UI but overall it's been decent. However, I am updating to add, yet, another flaw that I just discovered. I have come to notice that at times when a song is playing it will randomly start to "crackle" and drag. It has done it on at least two occasions so far and I've only had the player maybe a good week and a half. My Ruizu X52 was notorious for doing the same exact thing at times, often getting so bad that the only way to fix it would be to turn off the player and restart it, which ruins the listening experience - Again, I think this may be a common issue with these Ruizu DAPs. I will update again if I continue to find any more issues with this player.

I read the reviews and took a shot on this and happy I did. This is a no-frills MP3 player - you charge it up, load songs, hook it to a speaker or headphone and listen to music. No WiFi, no Bluetooth, no overly complex product with features you don't need or require you to login and have your activity monitored. PROs: * Small and lightweight - I thought I was shipped an empty box until I opened it. * Sliding power button - probably one of its best features - no, not the sliding button with a spring you have to hold for x seconds to power up or down, this my friends is a simple power switch. Slide it one way, its ON, slide the other way, its off. No waiting for power-ups, shut downs, etc. In the middle of song and you have to shut it off? - just flip the switch and you're done. * Has internal memory! - I didn't read the description in detail, so maybe I missed this, but I hooked it up to my computer to charge, fully prepared to rip open the 32GB micro SD card I bought with it to load songs and viola, the MP3 player has its own flash drive. I apologize, I don't recall the size the size, but I loaded well over 4GB of MP3s without and issue and they played fine. * Battery seems good and long, I connected it to a passive speaker and it played for well over six hours without issue. Pretty sure it will go much longer, but I haven't tested it extensively. * Simply a great device if you just want a simple MP3 player without worrying about running your phone's battery down, buying a Bluetooth speaker, or forgetting to grab your phone that you connected to a wired speaker. CONs: *It's small, lightweight and made of plastic (not bad things), so while it's tempting to throw in your pocket, I'd worry about snapping it in half. It's not flimsy per se, but I wouldn't risk dropping it or putting it somewhere it might get tossed around or compressed. * My only complaint (hence the four star rating) is there is no shuffle option - at least not that I've been able to find. As others have stated, there doesn't seem to be a good way to choose songs. Personally, I don't need to pick a specific song, I just want to listen to music in a random order. So far it appears to either play in the order songs were loaded in or alphabetic order - haven't paid really looked into which. I know many modern cars with USB ports for playing MP3s go the former route. There is software you can download to select the play order for such devices, but the problem is still the same for me - the player will always play the songs in the same order. I assumed this was the case when I bought it, I was just hoping it wasn't. All-in-all, it's still a great player at a reasonable price. Updated 10-12-18 Found the shuffle play! Maybe this is in the manual I haven't read, but if you're playing a song and press the M button, the player will show some additional menu items. Among them is shuffle. Select it then scroll to YES (no seems to be the default). Press the center button then you're golden. Really love this player now.

Exactly what I wanted.

Sexiest MP3 music experience ever in my entire life.. Orgasms are indescribable in words with Realme wireless neckband 5 ANC.. Lack of ambience & distortion at higher volume.. are the main drawbacks of MP3.. I don't understand how Chinese managed to remove these drawbacks.. successfully.. with this sweetest device..

Been using for 2 years now while golfing. Robust and long battery run time. Holds a LOT of music. Would be nice for a wee bit brighter screen but hey, for the price it is fine.
