Will the Amazon UK launch be part of the Black Friday Weekend celebrations?

YES! It will be part of the Black Friday event!

So not, in fact, taking part in the Black Friday event then?

Yeah unfortunately. We thought we would have more time but we are still super busy with the AP80s shipping so we've changed the plans so it has been postponed to a later date, to be confirmed

Received my AP80 today without any tracking number received. Backer #180

Where are you from?

 

[abitdeef]

Yes and did you have express shipping? Because I think I wasted 20 bucks, unless you’re in China. And they definitely aren’t sending them out by backer #.

 

[duncan21]

Where are you from?

Hong Kong, that's the reason why it's that quick. I think ppl from China or Asia region should receive it very soon.

Hong Kong

Ahh that makes sense, well enjoy

You didn't waste your 20 bucks don't worry! Just to make things less confusing, the express shipping means we will ship the order by express shipping, it will be faster than standard shipping for sure. We always have to organize our shipping and that's what the carriers also usually do when they ship. We need to select same area, and same countries to ship out one by one. Like Europe countries, US countries, Asia countries, etc. I know you cannot wait to receive your AP80 but please wait for a couple days. The most important is that you will receive your AP80 at the end, right?

Great news to hear the process of shipping is going well. Won't be long for those in Australia either (presumably )
Thanks Ken, can't wait to get a good DAP to replace my $20 Benjie K3. Will be quite the upgrade...

Looks like in the past week, most of the Hong Kong backers are receiving their AP80's right now, judging from the Kickstarter comments. So from the looks of things, nearby countries from HK like Taiwan, and Southeast Asian countries like Singapore, Indonesia, Philippines, etc. would probably be the next ones to receive?

I have the same concern, too. I even messaged Ken about that, but he assured me that they acknowledged my express shipping request. And yeah, IIRC they said that they're sending them out according to location, which means they probably prioritizing countries that are near HK. Oh well, fingers crossed...

Good to know that someone got theirs already! Looking forward!! Hope to get it before the end of the month.

Btw, to those who have them in hand, hows the ap80 going? Any initial impressions guys?

I’m really in no real hurry myself, I’ve got several daps to use. It just seems kind of vague about what’s happening with the distribution of the units. A tracking # is usually generated at the beginning of shipping but no one seems to have gotten any tracking info yet, which seems strange since I guess people close to Hidiz geographically have already received theirs.


The express shipping price seemed pretty reasonable too, so I thought why not- I’ve had stuff from China take over 3 weeks to arrive via regular airmail.

Build quality is great, sounds signature is kinda neutral but need time to further evaluate it. In short, just great considering its price.
The quality of silicon case is a let down, it just feel flimsy and can't hold up it shape when you attach it on the AP80.
