@JamesFiiO gave the info on weibo while answering questions about m17. https://m.weibo.cn/status/K0PDi7GZE?jumpfrom=weibocom

Not sure how take it as they seem to already have taken the answer.. "As for using a 3.5 optical output port, we finally gave it up considering cable compatibility and users' demand for the optical output function is not so strong. Therefore, the bottom ports of the M17 finally took Solution A."

Wondering if it will have Parametric EQ :thinking:

I am glad they went for 6" display :) I think that the new iBasso dx300 with its 6.5" is way too big .. for my taste ^^

No both the soc and the screen are out of production that is what the M11, M11 pro and M15 are discontinued

Fiio posted a statement on Weibo. https://m.weibo.cn/u/2388602863?is_all=1%3Fis_all%3D1&is_all=1&jumpfrom=weibocom

And here is an unboxing (in French)

I found one review (in French) ! https://blog.son-video.com/2021/01/test-du-focal-celestee-la-tete-dans-les-etoiles/

Probably similar price range as the Clear

I would guess a Bluetooth version of the Elegia

The codec, bitrate, kHz and kbps are still not displayed under the album cover in this 3.0.2 compared to the old UI 😢

That's a good point indeed. Different marketing strategy ends up with different user expectations and feedbacks

I agree with you that a more recent version of Android would be better. Although I do not understand why I rarely see the same critics on the AstellnKern DAPs which runs on an even older Android version (Android 6) :thinking: Source...

I haven't check with 1.1.9 yet as I removed all DSD256 from my sd cards

I am wondering if adding a parametric equalizer in the Fiio Music App is in their roadmap :thinking: I think it would be a nice upgrade.
