I think phones have generally taken over MP3 players because you can do everything an MP3 player does on your phone.
But I recently bought one because I just like a single device having that unique purpose of playing music.

I bought one for my car when Android phones started removing the headphone jack and SD cards. When I got a new car in 2021 it no longer had an aux port. I could still connect the mp3 player with Bluetooth but that was fiddly. The car has a decent ui for playing music off USB stick which is mainly what I do these days.
I still sometimes use the mp3 player because it sounds better and I have a lot of wired headphones but I no longer daily it.
