Sorry to hear this. If I were you I would try bring it to a phone repair shop and see if they have any option to replace the screen. Opening up the device will not be easy but I think it can be done. Doesn't matter if you break the screen, because it already malfunctions (or at least the...

I fail to see the relation between the two. The X1 has only one set of DACs; a set of Sabre dacs in this case. These dacs perform the D-A conversion. There are no other components in the X1 which may be able to do D-A conversion besides the Sabre dacs. The boards of the X1 are not drawn up from...

Each application uses the Sabre dacs. There are no other dacs available in the device.

That was exactly my point: You play files in another format, which may cause a higher battery drain. As much as I enjoy this forum, i regularly notice people making statements and other people basing opinions on that, followed by other people claiming that what was stated in the first place is...

Sorry, but my DP-X1 playing nothing but Flacs at reasonable volume all day plays for over 9 hours without a single recharge. I have 2 SDXC cards in the device, Wifi enabled (and connected), bluetooth disabled and most background apps (Google junk) disabled and it just plays and plays and plays...

Looks like something you installed by yourself (or someone did this for you). I have never seen this before. Perhaps check the installed programs for something that may trigger this?

Please keep in mind that, even though stated as fact, the information given only represents an opinion.

I guess that is where personal taste and background / previous experience comes in. I found the AK interface to be very limited in functionality and not intuitive at all. Perhaps that is because I got used to "the Android way of doing things" (all my phones, tablets, STBs, TVs etc are Android...

I compared DP-X1 to AK 200 but was not impressed with the AK200. DP-X1 sounded way more detailed and on top of that the interface of the DP-X1 was waaaaaay nicer to use than the AK interface. Also, the DP-X1 had a better screen, better screen size and -of course- gives the flexibility to install...

I am actually quite eager to hear your experience with the HifiMan 400i combined with the DP-X1. I heard the combo and found them to be quite flat and powerless. Seems the 400i drwa too much power from the DP-X1 to get them going. The DP-X1 brought no soundstage and was unable to make the 400i's...

It is possible to view all songs for an artist. Just look up and select the artist you want and then click "All Songs". That will display all songs for the artist you selected (tag based).   Don't know about the playlist stuff though, I don't really use playlists so perhaps someone else can...

If you are looking at tags, then you see the tag information being displayed. I you browse folders, then of course the file names are displayed.   So, basically you have the option to browse by: - Genre / Artist / Album / Song (tags) - Artist / Album / Song (tags) - Album / Song (tags) -...

Yes, it is. Actually the 256 Samsung cards are preferred over the 200Gb Sandisk cards, as the Samsung cards are significantly faster. Some folks on the forum have 2 x 256Gb cards in their DAP and it works like a charm ;-p

The DP-X1 sorts files and folders any way you want it to. You can simply browse the folder structures, or go through you library based on tags (artist, genre, album, etc).   I find the UI quite pleasant and smooth and it works without issues. There are two things I find annoying, however: 1...

That sounds kinda steep to me... Perhaps you should take a look on ebay?
