I really want to get one since 11/11 has good d eals on them, but I’m not sure if I need one.

For those of you who have one, what DAP do you use? Do you think it’s worth it?

I’m not going to buy one for purported claims of better sound quality or whatever; it would mainly be a convenience thing / separating out my phone from vs my music (like a dedicated iPod).

First gen FiiO X3. I'm quite happy with it. The DAC chip made virtually no noise even with my KZ ZSN Pro x, which whined a little when attached to my Behringer UMC202HD interface (though that thing is a letdown anyway). They're not in production any more, but you could probably find one second hand for quite cheap.
