I don't know. This is a downgrade compared to Fiio X5

X2 has little more spacious sound, but with worse holography.
But this X3 is just a sample not for sale. I don't know if it's gonna change when it's gonna hit to the stores.
The sound is similar to xDuoo X2, only better. Treble are more extended, bass is faster, mids are more exposed, overall sound is more detailed and faster.
The sound stage is narrow but it may soon improve.
This is certainly a different type of sound than Fiio X1. X1 is a little muddy, warmer and covered by a veil - good for relaxation. xDuoo X3 is rather technical. Still a little warmed, but more energetic than Fiio.
Sorry, I didn't take any pictures. But it's look like on photos in this thread, only little smaller (Chinese hands...).
UI is different. On the screen you have the most information, everything is easy to understand and clean, but it shows the file name instead of the data from the tags (it can be read in the file options).
For cons: main menu are different from any DAP I had, and without manual you gonna have a problem even how to start the music (but it was reported).
so it's been sent back?....was much interested to see the "now playing" screen than the stock pictures.
