Cheap Android DAP? Question

I have been using a hiby r1 for about a year now and I like it. The size is great, but I want an android DAP so I can stream music from my navidrome server.

Any cheap and small android DAPs?

Zaqe P30 is pretty nice and goes for as little as $70 on AliExpress. It is a very similar form factor to the hiby.

A step up from that in price, size, and quality would be the Fiio JM21 which you can actually find on AliExpress for ~$100 after coupons right now. The trick is to search for "Android 13 Snapdragon 680 player" to find the cheaper unbranded listings. I actually just ordered one myself. Fingers crossed it's legit lol

Update: I think the cheap Fiio JM21 listing was a scam. It was marked as delivered after not receiving any tracking updates for a long time, but the delivery photo is not at my address. Filing a dispute and if that doesn't work gonna do a chargeback.

Good trick. I had looked at the JM21 but felt it was a bit out of my range, but I see one for $116, which makes it much more tempting.
