Sure it is! But this thing is very nice when held in hand and very light. It slips into pockets nicely, but I would not keep it my back pocket though. I cannot describe how awesome the music sounds coming out this little thing is. I've not used spotify since I got it. If you like to listen whole album at the time, then I really recommend this thing, but if you want to explore new things constantly then you need a spotify or other streaming service too.
