      I think they were trying to capture the pun in their Chinese tagline (音乐,乐无限) which when directly translated is "music, infinite happiness". The second character of "music" is written the same as that for "joy/happy" (even though the pronunciation is different), maybe they eventually thought it was just too awkward in english?

    9:27 there are 4 standard of sd card:
    SD: 1 MB to 2 GB
    SDHC: 2 GB to 32 GB
    SDXC: 32 GB to 2 TB
    SDUC: 2 TB to 128 TB
    Since none of this standard ends in 128 Gb, this device can probably support all the way up to 2 Tb
    “It can only support xxx Gb” it’s a thing manufacturer says based on the highest capacity Sd card AT THE TIME OF MAKING; in reality it can support always one of those standards.
    It may not support a higher capacity because it doesn’t have enough ram? But I highly doubt that

    You can actually use the scroll wheel to control the volume on the X1; you just need to hit a volume button first to see the volume level and then you can adjust your volume like ZOOOOOM-just be careful if you have something on your ears while you do it! You can also adjust in the settings to where you can use different buttons while the screen is locked with the power button: No buttons, Only Volume, or all face buttons IIRC.

      While the M6 is more in line with the price of an iPod touch, i’d day it’s inferior performance wise. By that I mean it will have a much slower UI when compare to an iPod touch/iPhone. I even had a fiio m9 for a while and it was still quite slow. It sounded great, but when I upgraded to the M11, it was lightning fast and sounded amazing. Unfortunately, a lot of high end DAPs are still sub par in terms of UI compared to modern day cell phones. We are so used to everything being lightning fast and instantaneous with our phones, but that’s why m11 has the perfect balance of usability and sound quality.

  • @combatwarsjason
    @combatwarsjason Před 4 lety +2

    I love that you're reviewing DAPs like Fiio. The updated version is actually still purchasable new for a single "hundge" from a site called Drop. They have a sale on the Fiio X3 Mark III for $99 currently. They also have headphones like the Hifiman HE4XX, Sennheiser HD6XX, and Beyerdynamic DT 177X GO headphones for very reasonable prices which are collaborations with each respective companies on their popular HE400, HD650, and DT 1770 headphones but for $130, $200, and $450 versus $450, $500, and $600 MSRP. They also used to have an AKG 7XX headphone which was a collaboration on the K702 which was available for $200. Great site for audiophiles looking for great gear on the cheap.
    The site's Chief Product Officer is a huge audiophile/audio nerd so he gets a lot of things for the site. For one instance, they're making their own headphones this time around after buying the rights to the OPPO PM-3 driver tech. They made the Panda which is supposed to be a high res bluetooth planar ribbon headphone that's acoustically tuned.

    I'm so glad you made a video about this! I have one of these and I was actually hoping you would do a video on it since it seemed so weird and out there at the time. Very high quality feeling device for the price. Back in the day I paired this up with ATH-M50's (The originals, not the m50x or m50s) and it was the perfect combo for poor high schooler audiophile. Loved this thing till the wheel died.

    When seeing the splash screen of this, it totally reminded me of my recent purchase: Surfans F20.
    Still getting used to the thing, but even on my cheap headphones, it already sound better than my phone that I was using for music until now.
    If you can get one in Australia, you might want to check it out, it's reasonably priced I think.
