Handheld audio device
A portable player is a handheld device for playing recorded media—music, video, or games—while on the move.
The term covers everything from Walkmans and Discmans to MP3 players and handheld game consoles: I loaded my portable player with podcasts for the flight.
Smartphones have largely absorbed this function, making dedicated portable players less common.
