It seems Vivo Xplay5 Ultimate still gets the best Hi-Fi ever conceived to a phone so far.- Wagnelles

This Liaow store seems to be a very nice Aliexpress alternative to import phones. Can anyone relate to them?- Wagnelles

Hey guys. Apparently the LG V20 DAC has been documented. Can I assume the Quad DAC on the V20 is actually better (read more expensive/advanced) than the Vivo Xplay5 Elite's sound system (2xES9028 and 3xOPA1612)?- Wagnelles

Hey guys, remember a few days ago when GSM Arena reviewed the Vivo Xplay 5 Elite, but their audio review was pretty bad and we started wondering if they forgot to tap a possible "On/Off Switch" for the DAC? Well, this is what @malifact stated on his Xplay5 Elite audio review when I asked him: ...- Wagnelles

Vivo XPlay 5 Review - Very Impressive Audio
Thank you so much for this clarification. I'm curious about the headphone profiles because I'm planning on buying this phone along with a Shure SE846 or one of it's competitors. If is not much trouble for you, please ask him which headphone profiles are available. If the list is too long, please...- Wagnelles

I'd kill for a sound comparision between the Vivo Xplay 5 Elite and the ZTE Axon 7 EDIT: Just noticed we have this awesome Xplay5 Elite review here at headfi. It's basically the review GSM Arena didn't bother to make. ...- Wagnelles

No reply from GSM Arena about Xplay5 Elite DAC. I think they don't even care at this point. ): Wish I had the money to buy the Xplay and do a proper sound review myself, since I live in one of the few carrier compatible countries. I hope someone else manage to get it's hands on the phone for us.- Wagnelles

I agree that their review didn't detailed the Audio department enough. However they showed every other aspect of the phone, which makes me feel more safe to buy. It's a solid phone, despite not having USB Type-C and other few minor things. I really don't care if the phone looks like a Ripoff...- Wagnelles

Sorry, not much clear for me. Are you saying that the Xplay 5 Elite sounds much better than the Axon 7 in every way? The Xplay 5 Elite has 2*ES9028+OPA1612 according to GSM Arena. The Axon 7 has AKM 4961 + 4490 Do we know which one is better? EDIT: Found this on GSM Arena:- Wagnelles
