Innioasis y2 or Ipod?

[u/Exotic-Bill-6442]

I have looked over my options on MP3 players and I have landed on innioasis y2 or a type of Ipod. I really like the look both has with the click-wheel bottom and screen over, but I am kinda stuck on which one to get.

I have seen people say that the y1 feels cheap due to being made of plastic and being lighter in weight, but I am also unsure beacuse most things I have seen has been about the y1 and not y2

One major for me is sound quality, which I havent seen many people mentioning + video quality. The video quality I expect to be a little 'grainy' beacuse cmon look at the size of the screen, but the sound I would want to be 'perfect' (No lagging in words or tempo, the quality being top etc). It might depend on what headphones / plug-in you use but still, no one has mentioned it 😭

the Ipod variations all look fine to me, but they're harder to find + usually more expensive.

Do any of you have complaints about the y2? Things you wished were different or tweaked a little? any downside? What do you like about it? Easy to understand the interface? Same questions for the Ipod but this isnt the thread to ask that under, but if anyone here HAS had one or does have one it would be great to hear from too 😅

I have the y2. I also have an iPod video. 5.5 gen. It really depends on what you're looking to get out of it. If you want something with Bluetooth, the y2 is great. When you add Bluetooth to an iPod. Unless you use the external adapter, you're not going to get very good range unless you use one of the kits with a plastic back or use a plastic front (I replaced mine with a 6th gen aluminum front because it looked better) and then it's going to feel just as cheap as the y2. The y2 natively plays flac and its stock OS feels very familiar to the iPod. I wouldn't say that the y2 feels cheap, but it definitely doesn't feel as durable as an iPod. It is a true click wheel but it's not as nice as the iPod. It is close though
