    Thank you. However, there is no update to 2.7.3 from the Google Play Store in my place. I will wait for it.

    I have tried to use the BT52021 with a USB type-c to type-c cable to connect to my iPad Pro 2021 (which is using USB-C connector) and there is no problem to decode MQA when using Tidal app. It can show MQA in the display of the BTR.

    I am using BTR5 2021 with Westone W4R, Sony WH-1000XM4, Grado Alessandro M1, Acoustune RS One. All are using 3.5mm unbalanced. Actually, I think the BTR5 2021 can truely reflect the sound without adding special characteristic to the music.

    Hi srbungle, Very sorry to hear that you are using Google Pixel 6 that did not support external USB DAC. Fiio said that there is an issue in the XMOS firmware for the BTR5 20201 that prevent the Tidal app to recognize it as a MQA compatible device. This issue may be solved until Fiio releases...

    The FAQ for BTR5 2021 stated the following: https://www.fiio.com/newsinfo/552768.html No. The firmware of the BTR5 2021 is based on that of the old BTR5, which has been well recognized by our users to be very stable. So it is unnecessary to upgrade it anymore. Is it really possible to have a...

    Yes, now it limited the usage if I want to listen to MQA songs and need to find a place with wifi connect.

    What a trick to insert the headphone to the BTR5 first! I can get it now. Please please please provide an update firmware asap. UAPP is good but it will use up mobile network data and it does not support download to mobile for offline listening while Tidal app itself supports this. Thank you.

    Dear Fiio, Please have the firmware update soon as I always use my Android mobile phone paired with the BTR5 to listen to Tidal. For UAPP, I am also using it and enabled the MQA feature through the in-app purchase. However, there is no luck to have MQA fully unfold. I just can see the 1st...
