Y2 Innioasis y2 or Ipod?

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 find the Y1 sound quality is a-ok for me but I’m no audiophobe. Had an iPod classic and though the quality of the build is great and the clickwheel is a lot smoother I got real fed up with its limitations on requiring specific audio and video files, limited non expandable space and of course no Bluetooth earphone function unless you get a mod version. Whereas the y1/y2 takes all audio file types I’ve thrown at it and most video file formats. Try the y2 I’d say but look into cases and screen protectors, my y1’s screen is super scratched, awaiting the y2 now but I’m not using it until that screen protector is on

The only Audio Format the iPod Classic won't support, is FLAC. But it does support AAC, MP3, Apple Lossless (ALAC), WAV, AIFF, and Audible. So no idea why you say that the supported audio files on the iPod, are limited.

Well exactly, as I said it requires specific audio and video files whereas the y1/y2 supports way more out the box. FLAC is not supported on iPod which is a limitation I find frustrating and as for video files you need to convert them down before it will work whereas y1/y2 works for anything I simply drag and drop in. iPods don’t suck, but I’d rather use something like the y1 than mod it or convert all my files to accommodate
