    R5, a new Android DAP by Hiby

    I would like to know this answer. I just signed up with Amazon Music and the buttons not working is a deal breaker. If this is not going to get fixed anytime soon, I may have to return the player. - Garrett

    Anyone notice that pausing say Google Music when the screen off works without issue, but when to go to play / unpause while the screen is off, it does not register? I have to press the power button in order for it to start playing / activate. Is this normal? - Garrett

    I’m strictly on 5Ghz and really haven’t noticed any issues. It does take a bit longer to connect to the network, but it works. Now I’ve had a few hiccups with streaming Amazon music, but not sure if that’s app related or network. - Garrett

    That was the first thing I did. I had several firmware updates and now on the current version. I am performing a factory reset to see if that will correct my issue. Will post back shortly with my findings. - Garrett

    I just picked up the Hiby R5 and I am experiencing the battery drain issues that was reported in the past. I granted all permissions for Google Play Services and Google Play Store.

    I took advantage of the coupon code and got an email a day later that the pads were not in stock. I ordered the pleather black angled pads. I then asked if they had the sheepskin angled pads in stock and was also told that they were not and they canceled my order.
