Speaking of new Benjie products (has been a while I looked around), I found this interesting BT headset with built in 8GB, so it's also a player, but seems to only support mp3, wma and wav. Then again, not sure if all those tech specs are accurate ... 'speaker size 30mm' .. that's pretty big for in-ear

That looks like a nice little player, 20+hrs battery, 128gb sd support. If I hadn't have bought the Nintaus X10 that would be a no brainer as loved the S5.

Could you compare Nintaus and S5 as far as the sound quality is concerned?

Sorry, I honestly couldn't say, I always ran the S5 EQd before it broke and run the Nintaus natural. That said I found both very pleasurable, nothing that will blow you away but good overall.

Which model of Nintaus do you own?

I find my S5 stutters, kind of like a LP on a record player skipping. Do you think the problem might be the player or maybe Exact Audio Copy that I used to rip CD's also ripped the scratches too?

The X10, to be honest I didn't know they did anything else.

Nintaus is 2 times more expensive. If the sound is similar why did you buy Nintaus?

I just stumbled across Benjie's new offerings in the T-series .. and I am just as confused as I was when the T1 came out (and of which I was utterly dissapointed) ... 
a) why would I need a bi-directional bluetooth connection and / or an aux in, when there is no recording function? BT to transfer files TO the device? Would'nt that take forever? 
b) the T3 appears to be 20$ more because it has a DAC chip, does that mean I can connect to computer and use it as a pass trough DAC (like I use my Fiio X3 II?) ... they had promised a DAC chip in early iterations of the T1, and ended up not implementing that idea, which made the T1 a rather clunky and unattractive 100$ player in the end...

You can stream Tidal/Spotify to T6 from your phone via bluetooth.

After playing with the Colorfly C3 a little bit, the bad UI is a bit exaggerated... it's decent. It's just awkward.
 
However, after comparing my Benjie S5 to my C3, the S5 actually has "better" sound quality. 
 
Why? There is some kind of high pitch noise (treble?) on the C3. 
 
Tested with only: HE 150 Ohm Headphones.
 
PS: I wish I didn't buy the $50 US Colorfly C3 now, the Benje S5 at half the price is a better value!

How are your battery life with the Benjie C3? I'm getting less than 4 hours, and it flashes during playback even right after charging. Is this normal?

I think you mean Benjie S5. Mine lasts hours, upon hours and hours... 10+
