    Best Smartphone for audiophile Part II (Updated: Jan 2020)

    Can someone explain me one thing please, just out of interest. Why does a DAC (in my case the B&O dac from LG) does sound different depending on what device you connect it to? When i connect it to a phone for example, it sounds just good, but when connected to a PC, it sounds absolutely...

    Hi, i can`t really fully help you as maybe one external dac will behave different than another and different android versions will probably do their thing, but i remember having your problems when connecting the LG G5 dac to some phone with android 7. It would refuse to play and i had to use...

    I have both the Xz premium and the HTC10 here. When i bought the Premium, i still had the V20 and had the chance to compare them. First things first: The sound is very good. BUT: You have to root it and do this...

    Yes, i`ve had all mentioned devices and the X3II. This is why i mentioned only the pro 5 and pro 6 plus out of the meizu`s, didn`t own any other.

    Hi, for 130 bucks of course it`s good, but i was wondering why these phones are recommended when people ask for phones in the 200€+ range. What does TOTL stand for?

    Xiaomi Mi Note/Pro has a similiar soundprint as the X3II, but the X3II has a wider soundstage and much cleaner sound, especially at high volume. That phone is old and not worth buying for the sound or for anything else. Same goes for Meizu pro 5/Pro 6. I also don`t understand why anyone would...

    I also heard a lot about issues with the V20, but from my experience with both phones (had the 6p for about 7 months last year and the v20 for ca. 6 months until i sold it a few days ago), i would replace the 6p with the V20 without even thinking about it. It is better in everything except the...

    Did someone here try an Xperia xz premium? I`m quite surprised by the sound quality. The stock volume is too low, but after rooting it and editing the mixer paths file to make it louder, that thing sounds gorgeous. I compared it with my V20 (B&O tuned) and with the B&O Hifi plus module, and...

    Hi friends, i just wanted to give a quick tip: If your smartphone sounds crappy and you don`t want to spend a lot of money, get an LG Hi-fi plus from ebay or something (it`s dirt cheap) and be happy. I have an LG V20 with B&O logo and just bought an xperia xz premium to replace it. Phone is...

    There is no need to buy an adapter if your low impdendance headphones have remote control buttons. You just hold the play button (the one that toggles OK google) on the headphones while connecting them to the phone and then release immediately after connecting. You need a little bit of the right...

    According to Pocketnow`s audio review, the Oneplus 3T has surprisingly good audio performance, and in contrary to most other reviewers, they know what they`re talking about when it comes to audio. Huawei is generally no good choice when you`re looking for good sound. They all have very weak...

    The FIIO devices have excellent audio quality. I can`t speak about the X5 2gen, but the X3 II and the first X5 do sound better than most smartphones, and yes, better than the LG V10. They are also both better sounding than the X900, which should be comparable to the X800. The sound is louder...

    Nubia is overpriced crap with nice design. The Z11 sounds worse than many phones without any dedicated sound setup, it has tons of annoying software problems, their updates are completly useless and the camera also sucks. Also, despite the 6gb of ram, that phone lags like a snapdragon 810...

    I bought from a private Seller. It`s the Gold version and the Phone is just 3 weeks old in new condition, so it was luck. But there are sites that sell it for a reasonable price, this one for example: http://www.grossoshop.net/index.php?route=product/search&search=meizu pro 6 plus They even...
