I've been testing out the new Neutron app on my i5 and have some likes/dislikes vs the stock Hiby player.
LIKES
True gapless
Hi-res support
Highly customizable sounds options
DISLIKES
Thinner, less dynamic sound vs stock Hiby player
Cluttered, outdated user interface
Finding the music library is confusing
Scanning the music library is slow
For now, I'm continuing to use the stock Hiby player because it just sounds better even though true gapless support is very important to me. Hopefully Neutron's sound will improve over time, coming into better alignment with the stock Hiby player. Just my two cents...
Those cons you posted about Neutron are exactly why I don't use it or like it, but nevertheless appreciate the opportunity to use it on my i5. I believe I bought the app years ago to use on my Android phones but the interface is awful. I found other music players (have been using GMMP) sounded a lot better, but at the expense of losing certain settings. I like the Hiby stock sound, and I like the warm musicality more than I care about true gapless support.
