I am right around 12 to 15 hours battery life with my rockboxed Clip Zip playing 192 VBR files. It depends on how much I am tooling around with features that may lower the battery life, but then I do not use the original firmware (OF) at all so I couldn’t tell you how long it runs on mine. With rockbox you can pretty much match the sound of other players if you have very good hearing to set the proper tweaks. Volume matched and EQ’d properly I do not believe there is any difference. BTW better headphones make a huge difference in how good of sound you'll get from your players ♪ ♫ ♪ ♫ ♪
