I'd go with any device that Rockbox (https://www.rockbox.org/) has a stable port for. I've been using a SanDisk Sansa Clip+ for 10 years and am still very happy with it.

It looks like most of those are old hardware. So far only see xDuoo as a new one.

What do you use for podcast management?

Little did I realize that SanDisk Clips are still being made ... and in-stock locally. So I'll try this option.

Yeah, I was really sad when my Clip Zip recently didn't come on (screen is totally glitched out), and I'm currently looking for a replacement for that, too.

I've got this xDuoo X3 (bought it ages ago), which apparently has a pretty good DAC and is able to load from two SDCards, and has a third-party Rockbox implementation.

There's a new version ot (X3 II), which has a much larger display.
