OpenSUSE and PopOS are deffo normal and its why i like them

i like my fedora bazz flavor tho

Depends on the model but my R40xxv sounds about as good as a $20 bluetooth speaker.

I use a $50 anbernic handheld that runs a nice mp3 player, has a 3.5 jack, and has physical buttons. It is a great little ipod. This one and the ones you should consider generally have dual microSD slots and that should offer the storage you are looking for.
