    Look! MOONDROP's First HiFi Smartphone, MIAD01

    Yes, but it's hard not to restart the phone as the battery totally drains to 0% every time it remains unused.... I feel this is the sort of thing that should be handed out to 100 users for vigorous User Acceptance Testing before wider release. It's a great idea, sadly the implementation is...

    Could be - let's see how Moondrop responds. There should be a status bar or similar at the top of the screen showing the bit depth and sampling rate to ensure we are achieving bit perfect hi-res playback. All decent DAPs have this feature. Also, I think the level of noise on the 3.5mm output...

    @MOONDROP - please confirm this is true?

    If you toggle this setting then it displays the same sample rate as the file. However, Davy's further comments are as follows: "Please note that the Moondrop probably won't play in HiRes mode. If it plays when enabling the HiRes mode, it does not automatically mean it actually uses a HiRes...

    Thanks - I've messaged Davy from USB AUDIO PLAYER PRO with the MIAD01 config files and he wrote back saying that there is No Hires Direct mode. So I assume there is some resampling happening @MOONDROP ? On the more positive side, a new firmware has just been released which includes a (very...

    Yes, please establish a database of users who can test the beta firmware. This is an amazing device which needs a little refinement in the user experience.

    By incompatibility do you mean it's not working properly in some way or just not working at all? I'm comparing the MIAD01 to my LG V50 and Sony XPeria 10 V. Upon installing UAPP on all three devices (I've done a clean install for the purposes of this test): LG V50: UAPP detects the hi-res...

    I'm testing my unit now. It's very impressive. I'll post a detailed commentary/review soon. In the meantime, if there are any questions or audio scenarios people want me to test please list them here and I will do my best to reply.

    OK will do - I notice sometimes UAPP doesn't always detect a hi-res dac when it is advertised by the phone manufacturer. For example, on my Sony Xperia 10 V although the phone is advertised as having hi-res, UAPP doesn't detect it at all. Is there any other way of knowing for certain?

    Do you guys mean using UAPP with the internal dac/amp or with an external dongle/DAP/DAC? Just checking so I know what variations to test for y'all 👍

    FOSTEX T50RPmk4 RP

    The question is what other cans will receive the new drivers. T60RP has always been my favourite. I'm guessing there's going to be another edition out soon!
