I asked the Mighty Audio folks about these reviews. It appears some folks have encountered reliability or syncing issues. I suspect you could use less-expensive iPod Shuffle cables, but I'm not positive.ĬNET hasn't reviewed the device, and I must note that some of the user reviews on Amazon are pretty low. My bigger complaint is that the Mighty relies on a proprietary, headphone-jack charging cable. And podcasts that rely on dynamic ad-insertion can't be synced to the player. However, as you might expect in a screenless device, navigating them can be challenging.
It does support podcasts, a recent and welcome addition. Mighty doesn't work with freebie accounts. You can't sync individual songs, albums or artists - it has to be playlists - and you must have an active Spotify subscription. Using the player is about as simple as it gets thanks to the familiar play-pause-skip control pad, but there are a few limitations.
It's not waterproof, but it is both water- and drop-resistant. Mighty can hold around 1,000 songs at Spotify's highest audio-quality level, and it's good for about five hours of play time. You can pair it with Bluetooth earbuds, speakers, car stereos and the like, but it also has a headphone jack - great if your current phone doesn't. That's convenient in a whole bunch of ways: preserving your phone's battery while you exercise, reducing your on-the-go data consumption and so on. The little player has a built-in clip so you can stick it just about anywhere.Īfter connecting to your phone via Wi-Fi, the player slurps up your Spotify playlists, allowing you to listen offline. It's available in black, white or orange, and I consider it among the coolest gadgets most people have never heard of. The Mighty is a small, square, clippable music player that closely resembles the aforementioned Shuffle.
