My phone is an iphone6 cuz my contract is still on.
The Note 4 is rooted but has no sim and is on wifi so...it's running the audio show....very well

I used de-bloater and stopped all un-needed apps so it can stream and play but nothing else

 
And have you tried Aegis with iPhone 6? Any sound differences besides the volume steps?  I've been told Aegis can sound different across various devices, I was also specifically informed to try with my laptop for good results.
 
Its funny, we all seem to be rampaging down smartphone/Aegis highway without much mention of its use as a deskstop dac/amp.

5 hours of audio is actually about what I get with my DX90, so Aegis + iPhone sounding as good or better than DX90 + same battery life = win.

Of course it'd be great if power draw were lower, but throwing an extra battery in my bag so I can top off as needed is something I do anyway. I bet others do, too.

And no streaming from my DX90 or X5, so DAP + Amp brick ain't gonna help me achieve my goal of great sound with streaming services - yet anyways.

 I have never really used my iphone as a music player. Too small and too cluttered with other chores .Just from short testing it seemed brighter and bigger. I'm sure other folks could give a better level of insight than mine re: ip6+Aegis

Well, right now, I get a day out of my 2800mAh battery in my S5, but that's under heavy use, streaming, music, surfing, etc. I have a 3800mAh battery coming in the mail today, fits under the stock cover, and, as I do less playing with my phone, I should get more life from it. Right now, half the stuff I do is screen on, just playing with settings.

Most the my usage with the Aegis has been through my work PC. I find it to be a better match that a smart phone. I also got very good results using a Window 10 tablet. It works well through a phone, but personally, I prefer using my phone as is.

Thanks. Just requested cancellation of the Fiio one's, they haven't shipped yet. Once I get a refund, I'll grab twister6's recommendation.


Awesome. Aliexpress and the Singapore slow crawl ftw

  That place has always been good to me but they take a while to ship sometimes. In this case it helped me not bork you..Yay!
 
I was super bummed..I wanted THAT one since it's flat. My first try with the Aegis was with a Cayin short flat usb that was for charging but I tried...no go. Saw the e18 cables and thought no way...must be one data/power and one power version but they were both the same...and when it lit up and sang I was alll..VELCRO!!!
 
 
VELCRO!!!

 
 
I got the twister one coming too so it will be fine but that flatty is a bady...and What is with all the usb micro versions??

Finally got my Aegis today. Hoping to add to the conversations soon...

 
Congrats @Loquah , welcome on board! Looking forward to your impressions and I am also curious about the Shozy Alien vs Cozoy Aegis -sound- comparisons (if you still have the Alien)...
