Small, portable, and super fun

I got this more as an introduction into DAPs, therefore I don't really have anything to compare it to, but it's really nice gives me the opportunity bro have much more space than on my phone and it pairs well with my NX4 from topping

Worth its buck

Definitely worth the price, was hoping this would be an upgrade from the Gen2 which made me fall in love with Fiio. The Gen2 is ever so slightly warmer in sound signature, but other than that the audio quality and signature is very similar unless you start being anally analytical. I love the new refreshed slimmer body but I do miss the mechanical scroll wheel, the touch wheel is no where as pleasing. The UI is practically the same which is welcomed, but far more slower in responding. And the TWO major upgrades that are a game changer is the Bluetooth and Balanced output. In conclusion it is a physically attractive unit with upgraded features that maintains the X3 formula, but due to the slower interface and missing that beautiful tactile scroll wheel It really did not replace my gen2. I love them both and has become part of my daily routine in selecting a player when I head out for the day

Simple interface

The basic interface makes it fairly easy to use for some things but difficult for others. It's nice that I can just turn it on and it will start playing.

I was very upset that Apple discontinued the ipod but this bad boi gets the job done

How can I workout without my music? This player is perfect for the gym. I read the reviews about the slow software response and that is true however the overall product is great.

My little music nugget

Consider this a 4.5 stars not a 5 stars since the product is not perfect but is very close to it (for my needs). Skip at the end for a pros and cons list if you don't need context and everything. I was looking for a hi-res music player for a while now. I wanted a product that had just the barebone necessities. Why you ask? I use it when I'm writing and I don't want to have any opportunity to be distracted. My phone and PC are a no go for this reason since even if I were to put my phone on airplane mode I could be baited to switch back online AND my phone being a recent samsung device is a bitch when it comes to using "audiophile" stuff. I knew Fiio for a while at that point. They make good stuff ok? So I was going around the web for something to fill that void in my life. And finally Drop came to the rescue (for once) and offered this little nugget at a VERY interesting price (80$ or so). Now I know its not the most recent but its recent enough without all the bells and whistles that I want to avoid. I only want a fuckin portable music player than can play my FLAC collection and has just enough power to power some varied IEMs and headphones (it can drive stuff that are around the 100ohm mark no problem) So 80$ for a solid hi-res player that will not let you down. Now here is the list that you guys actually really want Pros:

Size
Looks (it looks and feels like an OG Ipod and I like that)
Balanced and Unbalanced outputs
Can drive headphones above 100ohms (which is great for stuff like the dt990 pro 80ohms)
Good battery life
Fuckin great price (80$ at that time)
OFFLINE (thats a plus for me)
Bluetooth (if you need it)
Can also act as a USB DAC

Cons:

The software is kinda slow (not that much)
No physical spin wheel like the older models (I like them when the device is locked to fiddle around)
No USB-C but I'm being dumb since it's an older product

It's small and cute in one hand.

The delay in moving on to the next song during playback was slightly exaggerated.
If you play/stop with the buttons on the side, you can hear a thud and it is very annoying.
There are no other problems.
It sounds pretty good and has an easy operation that can be easily adapted if used only a few times.
Connecting Bluetooth devices also works well.

"awesome"

bluetooth feature nice without compromising your phone. Put on a pair of nice cans/iems or hook up to your studio/stereo proper. Surprising quality for the cost.

Happy with it

This is my first player, so I don't know what to expect from this. Good sides for me - supporting of many formats, pretty good battery life, digital aux and balanced outputs. Pretty powerful for play my Sundara, ath-msr7b, edc3. Player comes with pre-installed protection film, few replacement films, clear silicone cover and leather case(which causes lack of sensetivity for side-buttons)
