I just ordered the Meizu 16th.
I actually tried to get more information about the 16x/16 but even the Meizu customer support didn't know about it.
The 16th btw uses the Cirrus Logic Cs35L41 amp in combination with the built-in Qualcomm DAC. I have no clue if there are also differences or if all of them (at least in the Snapragon 845) are the same?
The 16th plus also uses the CL DAC, hiwever is not available as global version and lacks some important LTE bands.
Since I am currently still using the Pro5 (with ESS chips) I can do a direct comparison btw.
(The Pro5's sound quality is the best I've heard anywhere. Even my super expensive Digital surround amp has no chance concernig the sound quality.
Will get back with a little overview about the phone
Seems like Meizu Pro 5 is still as good as ever, its on taobao, very cheap, refurbished 90% look like new, although a new battery is recommended. Hesitated to buy, scared pro 5 die on me in the next 2 years, but the customer review are all good.
BTW, Vivo X21 is on sale now (AK9376A), ~40% less. It's new, with warranty, sold direct from Vivo store.
What's the general opinion on refurbished units for DAP function only? Is it worth the risk? There are many LG V30, Vivo Xplay6 from taobao on the cheap.

Hello everyone
So im searching for audiophile smartphone indeed
And my thoughts until now are those there:
Id like warm, musical stuff against neutral, analytic
So from what i understood pro 5 or vivo xplay 6 would have the lead for fulfill my quest but since its is hard to find and the others features might have got ages and they not fully work with French 4g networks, i wonder if there wouldn't be less old phone who could be close to pro 5 and vivo xp6 audio quality and signature ?
Thx for this great thread
Cheers from France. sorry for my in progress english
Or Shanling M0 connected to any phone via Bluetooth. Am moving away or dropping the concept of taking phone for audio purposes because music phones now sucks at other things like OS or updates and good all rounder phones sucks at music.
Vivo nex S. That's it.
Thx,
Is "nex s", different device than "nex"?
I struggle to find "nex S" in my online browsing most of my research lead me to "nex" without extension.
However i migh go for vivo xplay6 aswell but i am reading about pro5 legend since so long in same time, lol.
My listenings are very eclectic, the predominant might be jazz funk tho

Then Nex S might be out of product line already. They are.different. some might call nex ultimate.
Vivo xplay6 is better for electromusic and funk.
Meizu mostly for vocal.
Cpu of xplay6 and camera.also better.
Tradingshenzhen have it and they ship to Europe. I have bought from them before without any problem.
