The newest iteration fixed the clickwheel. So it's a yes from me.

Thanks for your opinion, i want to ask when did they fix the click wheel problem as I dont want to buy the version with the issue and i dont know how long the dealer has had the dap in stock for

Thanks

Early 2017. Got mine in February from Moon Audio, new click wheel, Moon Audio were very helpful in confirming that.

Regarding your original question. I came to the QP1R from an iBasso DX-90. There were several reasons, but a big one is that over the years I owned the DX-90, as I also listened to a lot more music on capable non-portable headphone systems, I started getting tired of the ESS Sabre treble "glare." The QP1R's sound is neutral without glare. It might feel a bit clinical to some, but that's how I like my sound in general. I've used my QP1R with IEMs, Etymotic ER4PT and now InEar ProPhile 8. Again, reference sound rather than more colored bass-heavy or "romantic" sound.

Two other things that sold me on the QP1R were the two microSD slots (I have lots of music) and its relatively small size. I don't particularly like the user interface, but it is not a deal breaker for me because I mostly listen to individual albums.

So, if I lost my QP1R I'd likely get another one, as nothing I've seen reviewed in the last year meets the trifecta: 1) neutral sound, 2) high capacity, 3) small size, regardless of price. For instance, the high-end Sony DAPs are either limited in capacity (128GB) or super big&heavy(&expensive).

Thats great im a pure class hifi guy, my main home system is Krell and ribbon speakers so i want the clean type of sound so now it seems the QP1R is exactly what I want, thank you for your honest views

Also a lot pf my music is DSD and HD tracks so capacity is a must

Sooo looks like im buying one today, whoo hoo

Cheers

Right, that's what I have. The scroll wheel takes a bit to get used to, but once you get it, it does not slip, unlike the old version.
