Just tested 3rd gen Fiio x1 , x3 , x5 , x7 , FiiO Q1iix1 and x3 has lower resolution sound and less bass and ugly clumbersome interface same as every device similar to themI would better use Fiiq q1 ii with coexisting smartphone or Ipod which already have nice interfaceNow Fiio x5 and x7 are much more detailed devices with Android interface , not only they can have 2 sd cards, they also can play spotify and other streaming services , its muuuuuuch easier to navigate songs, and u can play folder`s of your playlists as usual.They both have physical buttons on side PLAY NEXT PREV and physical volume knobThey had similar audio signature, (just try to listen of unplugged guitars with all nuances )tho I liked x5 much more cause they are more bassy and much less expensive, tho x7 feeled snappier ... maybe it has better procesor ..It`s better to have dedicated DAP player and control your music from there than have AMP which is clumbersome and adds ugliness to your phone if u put them together with a band strip ... Having external player than using your phone with amp also gives you more battery lifeI currently have Hd 598 sennheiser headphones, they are great for their price , and everyone who wants to upgrade your headphones you can also check for isodynamic cans !(they have different better technology instead of using casual Speaker driver system in your headphones cans)Anyone who wonders is Fiio reliable ... customer support is only concerned if you have warranty, so try to buy with expanded one !Also devices usually are broken in reviews because people buy asia imports instead of Europe market .I discussed with worker, he told me those asian first models are for testing market, so after 3 moths or so only than are released worldwide with fixed bugs and defects .Similar to iPhone, at first they had tons of problems, later on after few months they fixed lots of problems ...My fellow entry level audiophiles , I hope I helped you somehwat with your questions :) !

This is the best sounding Fiio DAP that I have had the pleasure to own. Clean and clear sound with great depth, warmth, and detail. The soundstage is huge. This is a massive move forward from the Fiio X5ii in every respect, and at this price, a serious challenger to DAPS at more than double its cost. I tried it straight out of the box on delivery, it immediately updated to the latest firmware after connecting to my wifi, and I have been listening to it ever since on my Sennheiser HD700s. I am amazed and delighted at its ability to elevate and reveal new detail in my high-res music which I have played and enjoyed before. It will only get better as future updates will inevitably improve on a few minor software issues which need refining.I would highly recommend a listen if you are looking for high quality DAP to to reveal detail and clarity in your own music collection.Note: A positive update on my original review. Fiio have continued to update the firmware as expected - it has solved most of the issues of the speed of use, and album cover art issues that the early versions suffered from. I have now added a 2.5mm TRRS to 4-Pin XLR Headphone Audio Adapter (bought from E-bay) to my Sennheiser HD700s using the balanced cable for the HD700s available from Sennheiser. This enables me to use the balanced output available on the Fiio X5III. The sound is simply fantastic - smooth, detailed, and musical. I use the unit without any added amplification as the X5 has all of the power needed to drive the 150 Ohm HD700s. Just thought I'd add this information as the reviews of this unit are somewhat negative, whereas for me the X5III simply keeps getting better!

Overall very happy with the product, but one star off for a very annoying (to me) design flaw. The on/off/wake button is on the side directly opposite the play/pause button and it requires a very firm push. This means that holding the case to use single handed means one presses the on/off/wake and the play/pause - annoying when music is playing but you want to see the screen. The firmness required is also of some concern vis-a-vis button life.Otherwise the player is a pleasure. Yes, there are some glitches in the OS, but there are currently frequent updates so problems are being fixed as and when they are found etc. Sound is very good indeed, plenty of volume range for headphones too.I'm using mine for MP3s mostly, I wanted the capacity offered by the twin mem slots. The player is handling around 20k files and the only issue is a VERY occasional refusal to acknowledge a folder. this appears to be a recently found problem with embedded album art and is being worked on according to Fiio forums.Battery life seems to be fair, around 9-10 hours so far, but as with any device more screen use = less battery life. Boot time is around 30s into pure music mode and approx 45-60 secs into Android mode. I say approx as it is variable and OS updates have tweaked this I think, plus I am not that fussed - I am thinking "it's been 5 minutes etc".

Another excellent product from FiiO. Sound quality outstanding. It takes a little while to set up properly especially if you are a Apple iPod user like me as the Android interface is a little different. The best way I found to transfer your music and playlists from iTunes is a bit of software called 'Dapper" it makes the whole process simple and intuitive. Great DAP for the money!

I have a Spotify family account so any DAP had to be able to use that. This Fiio is so easy to use and I love the sound and obviously the capacity is just fantastic! Something that isn't obvious is that it comes with 2 cases, a leather one, which is ideal if you pair it with a Fiio amp and a clear rubber one which covers all of the bases. I am really happy with this, it's GREAT!

Sounds great as a USB DAC, Pure Player and Android Player. Deezer, Bandcamp and BubbleUPNP all installed in Android mode and working very well. Only slight snag is the upload of media files to the SD card from PC is only USB2.0 so a bit slow.
