Mp3 player for lectures?

Question

Mobile devices

Hello, dear Khabrovites. I ask for your advice. Completely confused in choosing an mp3 player. The choice turned out to be far from easy, since it is planned to listen to lectures rather than music on the player. Most of the players turned out to be completely unusable. You need a player that has:

• Possibility of fast scrolling (lectures sometimes last for several hours).
  
• Sleep timer.
  
• Not too small screen (poor vision).
  
• Control by means of mechanical buttons.
  
• Sufficiently capacious battery.
  
• Ability to bookmark.
  
• When turned on, playback starts from the same point.
  

It will probably be the perfect player. I don't know if there is such a thing in nature.
I really look forward to your advice.

Answer 1

See the discussion of players in the context of using them to listen to audiobooks.

Answer 2

It might be a good idea to buy not a player, but a voice recorder with MP3 support and a direct USB connection.
Take a closer look, for example, at this model:

Answer 4

It seems like the iPod classic and early Nano, which still can do all this with a wheel

Answer 5

You need a player with clear and understandable buttons, then you can not look at it at all, flipping through tracks, etc.
For me, this was once iriver t10 ...
