A new music player looks like a cross between and iPod Classic and a Zune

The Sudo is an upcoming music player set to launch in 2027, offering both offline listening and streaming capabilities through its custom Sudo OS. With a design resembling classic digital music players, the device incorporates elements from the iPod Classic, Zune, and Walkman. Its 64GB internal storage can be expanded by microSD cards up to 1TB, and the player supports both Bluetooth and wired headphones with a 3.5 mm audio jack and USB-C port for charging.

Measuring 103.5 mm x 58.6 mm x 8.5 mm, the Sudo is reminiscent of a traditional MP3 player. Its creators have accepted pre-orders for $50 to secure a unit in several countries, with an expected retail price of under $250 when it becomes available. A variety of colors are offered, including Silver, Basalt, Forest, and Tangerine. The device will be constructed from aluminum, and the casing will feature a USB-C port and a 3.5 mm audio jack.

Some details of the Sudo remain unclear due to ongoing finalization, but the overall reception is positive, despite some concerns about the project being vaporware.
