...the FLAC library (artists/albums/genres etc.) capability is very good, with other players you have to be meticulous with your file structures.
I started a thread a while ago about FLAC players for android...

...there's also some instructions about how to upgrade to a larger micro SD card, when I eventually got a genuine one that is

It's all about software isn't it?
Ignore what the phone specs say, a smartphone is a pocket computer and relatively limitless in scope. Any phone OS that is popular enough will have software around to play all formats.
My Nokia N900 (from 2009) is the best sounding I've heard, better than my ipod touch for example and other people's iphone 4s. I'm sure there are better sounding phones out there of course, probably many these days with better Codec chips being cheaper.
Anyway, free software was available to play all formats not long after it came out and it's 3.5 years old.

I've been using PowerAmp across at least 5 Android devices over the last few years. It's great.
The one caveat I have found is that playback of 24/96 FLACs are fine until I enable the tone controls (or EQ) and then I get a click about 4 times a seconds especially on silent parts - but I have only noticed this on my Samsung devices (Note II and Note 10.1). Otherwise all is good.
Well worth the money.
