Looks like you end up with the same waveform either way though.  /rimshot

Shots fired! lol
 
I am really excited! Wow, great specs. I MUST get it

Thanks for the share @RedJohn456 !

 
You're welcome bud! Its almost time for me to upgrade my phone but I was planning to see what comes out this fall. this phone is making me question my decision :wink:  And it comes with 64GB on board memory so thats a lot of space for music files. Honestly, at the price that it will be selling, I wonder how well it would compare against DAPs?
 
   
I've suggested a look on them way back ago to someone that asked advice on a cellphone with good music reproduction but they were dismissed by the brand unfortunately. Would love to hear some impressions on them! Being eyeing one for myself since the launch.

 
I think they just came out recently? Would be nice to see some real world impressions of how good they sound :)
 
That's some pretty phenomenal chips used in that phone. It's a shame we can't use LTE with it in the USA. It would be a must have if they made one with USA 4g LTE. The fact that it doesn't is a deal breaker for me.

 
I use one of the smaller carriers here so I don't get LTE anyway, but rather unlimited "4G", slow but works in a pinch. But it would be nice to have the options of using LTE when it comes time to change carriers. Is it confirmed that it won't support any of the T-mobile bands? Not even the AWS ones?
 
Also, I am not really familiar with chips and such, but would you say the hardware compares well to good DAPs? I mean at the price it will be selling it, might be worth it to use as a DAP/back up phone haha.
 
 
Edit: If I am reading the side, it can power cans up to 600 ohms?? Am I interpreting that right? If so, then holy cow that is some really mind boggling stuff, especially considering how thin the headphone is!

They came out in January, there is a review in the GSM Arena but not a proper sound review tough.

Nice specs, but looking at the size of the freakin thing, might as well be carrying a stack. Sure it's thinner & lighter, but a 6" screen is hardly portable in my eyes. This whole giant smart phone craze is just a mystery to me

I've tried an early sample for a short time, the signature reminds me of a livelier, slightly bassier HaviB3P1.

Hey hakushondaimao,

I finally made my way home and got the ESS and A150. Am jamming on Björk's Biophilia with iPhone 5s -> Cayin C5DAC -> A150 + SpinFit right now. From memory, the bass seems like A250 but the upper end is more laid back. Björk's voice is lacking the passionate sparkle I'd hear with a brighter sound signature. Need to try out some EQ with them to see if I can tame the bass and pump up the upper mids / lower treble a bit :wink_face:

Will try ESS soon. Just played around with the self-adjusting winged headband a bit. Not bad... Not bad at all...

Thanks again for letting me play around with them!

  Hey, anyone knows what happened to @Wokei ? Hope he is ok, long time no see him.

He's been working his tail off to cover some recent medical bills. Hopefully he'll be back on track soon
