Interesting, I thought that the Plenue D was long overdue for an update, but I wouldn't have predicted this. The price is the same as D, and EDIT: Plenue J specs vs Plenue D specs.

So, the question for me is: will the UI still be a bit sluggish as that seems to be a complaint with Plenue D?

If Plenue J is just a Plenue D in a different, slimmer form and smaller battery, I can see the Plenue D still being the preferred option for some people.

Quite! With inferior battery life and still only one micro SD slot, I really don't see the point of this.

I'm quite frustrated and will be very disappointed if this is all it is. I've waited for months and not bought anything because I thought a PD2 with faster UI and better screen would be the new version. I might get the J if the UI actually is faster and without the sluggish behavior of the D. If not I would want a significant price reduction on the D instead.

I wonder if this new model can read 256GB and 400GB micro SD cards?

If the player is affordable enough then a 256GB card might become an option.

I guess 27 hours is still better than most of the competition. I liked the look of the new Cayin N5ii until I saw only 12 hour battery life. I'm not paying hundreds of dollars for a device that is going to be made prematurely obsolete by a dying battery.

EDIT: OK so I've looked through the product page in Korean and the micro SD slot is still limited to 128 GB so I guess I can unsubscribe from this. Poor effort Cowon.

Ah, well that's something at least. I should've realized the CPU meant the PC and not the player....

I don't speak Korean either so I thought so too at first, but then I saw "Pentium III" and having that CPU for the device would be disconcerting to say the least, haha.

The device looks great IMO, kinda evokes of a cigarette case. But since it's significantly cheaper than the rest of the Plenue range, I just hope they don't skimp on too many things.
We'll see how it compares to the Sony A45, since they'll be the only two DAPs this price range with a decent UI and battery life.
