FiiO Echo Mini, a cool retro-modern MP3 player

Hey, question to anyone who has one of these, does it have native podcast support and/or a system to mark files as "listened to" easily? I think that would be my main use case, so it would be helpful to know ahead of time.

Neither, it's pretty much exclusively for music playback and that. It lists songs, you play them, and that's more or less it.

looks really cute! I wish there was a mode that displays more info rather than a tape UI skin.

I used to own a cheap MP3 player from amazon back in 2021 and it didn't even last a full yr until my brother dropped it and broke the screen's cable...

Does it support playlists?

There is an album art display mode that uses the art from the file metadata (see image below)

There's no playlists. Only albums, songs, and a single favourites list you can set in the player

You can theoretically create playlists by like, making a folder with your needed music (on PC) and then just playing that folder, or otherwise using metadata to do it.

Otherwise, as PossiblyAxolotl said, no playlists, only Favorites.

I got myself one of these too just today. After making do with an old phone with a dying battery it was time to treat myself to a nifty piece of tech. It does exactly what I need it to do and nothing more: Play music. It looks and feels very slick and premium and though I needed a YouTube video to understand the controls, they are perfectly fine. I'm glad there's something like this that is both aesthetically nice and works as intended. Music sounds good, too! I'm a fan.

(The fake battery lid on the back completely fooled me, tried prying it open for a good minute before realising it was just another aesthetic thing.)
