Changing the tone of the sound on ListenBook is a fun feature that adds a unique touch to my audiobook experience. The attention to detail is commendable. Artwork and metadata are sorted automatically. I love the auto-rewind feature after interruptions. No more searching for where I left off! I’ve tried many audiobook players, and this one is by far the best. A middle-of-the-road audiobook that neither impressed nor disappointed. The narrator's voice was agreeable enough for extended listening, though their character differentiation could have been stronger. The production met basic industry standards without any standout qualities.
