    Anyone who owns the Vivo Xplay6 could please list the headphone profiles that comes with the phone?

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

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

    Best Smartphone for audiophile

    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)?

    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:  ...

    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...

    @malifact Can you please confirm if there's a Hifi On/Off switch that you have to activate on the phone when using it for the first time?   EDIT: Also, I would like to know which headphone profiles are available on iMusic app. Thank you very much.

    Vivo XPlay 5 Review - Very Impressive Audio

    Amazing review, I was looking for this, thank you very much. Now all I need is a good comparision between this and the ZTE Axon 7 to decide which phone should I get.

    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.  ...

    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.

    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...

    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:

    All the V10 praise here is really making me want to have that phone. I know I already asked this before, but It's still not clear for me how the V10 sound compares to the Axon 7.      It's because is an all new phone with better aspects, and ZTE's putting a big emphasis on the sound of that...

    I believe we get ourselves more questions than answers. Can we try to get a solid-ish conclusion of the actual best phone for audiophile?   I believe everyone agrees that 3 of the best are the LG V10, the ZTE Axon 7 and the Vivo Xplay5 Elite.We should compare their soundchips and maybe get to...

    Thanks everyone for making that list. I'm now looking deeper into the Vivo Xplay5 Elite. Can't find much detailed reviews out there, I suppose this phone would not be that easy to find. I'm also worried to know if the phone would be compatible with brazilian's GSM carriers.    Yep, it's...

    In this case, please tell me a bit of your experience with your V10 soundwise. I live to the day that I'll be able to afford both the V10 and the ShureSE 846. That must be so amazing..

    Does anyone here speaks chinese? Here's ZTE's official site about the Axon 7's audio chips. All I can say is that there's 2 of them and they are indeed AKM chips! I'm hyped.   I would like to ask a favor for the experienced ones to make comparations with the LG V10's DAC and tell if the Axon 7...

    Still haven't found anything revelant about the ZTE Axonx 7, but I found this on CNET:     Source: http://www.cnet.com/products/zte-axon-7/   I was tempted to buy the V10 because of it's soundchip but was a bit worried about it's performance, since the hardware is not the best available...

    Heads up! ZTE Axon 7 is coming out with a dedicated soundchip. I guess we've got another competitor to the V10.    Source: http://www.techradar.com/reviews/phones/mobile-phones/zte-axon-7-1322212/review
