Best Android Music Player

If you love music and own an Android phone then you must have some complains about the stock music player in Android. The stock Android music player lacks a good number of features and some of them are becoming very essential now a days. For example many Android phones do not support FLAC format which is recently getting popular for the easy availability of higher memory in the mobile devices. There are some alternative Android music players which are feature rich and fill up the lacks of features created by the stock music player. So most music enthusiasts are switching to the alternative Android music players. So now the obvious question arises. Which is the Best Android Music Player in the market? I am afraid the answer is not that simple. There are many paid and free music players in the market which excels in different aspects. A comparative analysis is done here.

TuneWiki is the most popular free music player. It is great for those who love to explore music. You can search the songs form YouTube, get info about the artist while listening to him/her, listen to radio and keep yourself connected with the TuneWiki community. Other options like viewing lyrics, posting what you are listening to in Facebook or Twitter are also handful and many listeners require these features now. So among the free(ad) players TuneWiki is the best if you are more interested in exploring the songs. A paid version is also available in the market which is ad free. But if you are not always online from your phone you should not consider TuneWiki as your default player as most of the functions of TuneWiki are dependent on the internet connectivity.

The identifying feature of MixZing is its recommendations

engine. When you start playing a song in this player it will come up with a playlist from your music library based on the song. You can customize that list later on. Adding and removing songs from the playlist is very simple and fast. You can also get recommendations outside your library by selecting New Music after tapping the More button. You can add the online songs to your playlist by buying them easily by clicking the plus sign beside the titles similar to the process of adding songs from your library. MixZing features a fully functional equalizer which is very useful for the optimization of sound in different kinds of headphones and music systems. You can also integrate your Last.fm account with MixZing player. This player also has a costly Pro version which removes the ads and adds a tag editor and lock screen widget.

Cubed is a different kind of player which should not be in the Best Android Music Player list. But it isbest in one aspect. It is the interface. The shiny 3D interface comes with few features which may not be enough for many users but if you are happy with the look and do not want much features then Cubed is a good solution for you.

The last and the best music player which has leading in this area is PowerAMP music player. It has everything you need. The slick interface which is also skinnable is really great to look at and the feature list is never ending. It supports a wide range of formats like FLAC which is not supported by the stock music player in many cases. The equalizer is awesome which also features individual bass and treble changer for the users who do not understand the 10 bands but cannot choose from the presets. Only a trial version is available for free and you will have to buy an unlocker to use it after 14 days trial. But this is the app which is worth buying if you are a real music enthusiast.

There is a number of good alternative Android music players in the market and you can try them too. The players like Winamp, DoubleTwist, Songbird, Music Player Pro or Meridian could also be included in the list. We hope the excluded players will be discussed in the future soon
