mp4päätteitä

The term "mp4päätteitä" is a Finnish word that translates to "MP4 players" in English. These are portable electronic devices primarily designed for playing audio and video files in the MP4 format, though they often support a wider range of media types. MP4 players typically feature a screen for video playback, internal storage for media files, and controls for navigation and playback. Many also include additional functionalities such as photo viewing, e-book reading, and sometimes even basic gaming.

The popularity of MP4 players peaked in the mid-to-late 2000s before the widespread adoption of smartphones, which integrated similar media playback capabilities. While dedicated MP4 players are less common now, they were instrumental in popularizing portable digital media consumption. They offered a more convenient and dedicated experience for listening to music and watching videos on the go compared to earlier MP3 players that lacked video support. The market for MP4 players has since been largely absorbed by smartphones and other multi-functional portable devices.
