So, dumb question for you folks. I downloaded the Qobuz and Tidal apps on my new N6, and logged into my accounts on both via my home's protected 5G wi-fi. Workjed and sounded great!

Here's the question. If I try to use free public wi-fi to stream from one or the other of these, what security risks might I be taking? Wht's exposed/what do potential hackers have possible access to?

I was excited for a few moments then put it back in the box, I got one with a crap screen

That looks like a sunrise.

So I received my N6II yesterday. Currently is undergoing burn in. Battery life is amazing for starters. I understand that some have the issue of the wifi arrows appearing with wifi off, so one tip would be to be put it in aeroplane mode when not using wifi/bluetooth. It saves battery life. I did a battery drain test, a drop of 4% from 100% was seen on standby mode. I have no issues with the volume scroll wheel. It works perfectly and is accurate with no excess play on the scroll wheel. Screen protector is good, no crappy fit. To save more battery life, you can use the scheduled power off option and set the minutes of idle time before power shutdown. I set mine at 10min and it works.

But one issue I do notice is on the selection/transition of songs. Each time I select a song, while another song is playing, it takes a few seconds to load in the selected song. Is this a common issue for some? Is there a way to solve this? I tried the 3 different settings (gapless/insert silence/fade in and out) but to no avail. I scanned the database a few times as well but the issue still persists. Not a major issue, but something we could do without I guess.

Just to confirm the scheduled power off option is an option to turn the DAP off from when you stop playing music?

Yes that would be correct. The player must be in idle mode for that to happen, so no music/videos running. After which, it will trigger a shutdown if there is no use during that stated period. The scheduled power off option can be found under Settings>Battery>Scheduled power off.

Shivas, when you say your screen protector has a good fit, would you mind sharing a picture? I know aaf evo and I had an issue where the screen protector doesn't adhere to the screen at the very edge of the screen protector. Are you not seeing that?

Ah yes, am afraid I wasn't clear there, the edges are slightly off. But I was referring to those who had the other issue of the protector not fitting at the bottom right corner of it.

Anyone able to help with this? Its occurring on the Cayin music app.

You need a VPN if you are worried about that kind of thing. It adds encryption to all your network traffic and protects your device from hacking.

I think there are free VPN services out there but IMHO its something you are better off paying a few of your currencies a month for.

I am one who also love screen protector.

But the moment I saw the the curved edge of the screen of N6ii and by cursory placing the protector film that comes in the package over it, I decided that aesthetically, it is probably better off without. I do think Cayin should have a word with their screen protector supplier about the fit.

You have a Sponsor Contract with Cayin??

A Sponsor contract.....

Too close bro!

Does it happens in HibyMusic as well?

The security risks are many with public WiFi. Setup the wireless hotspot on your cell phone and use that. You won't have to worry about it then.

Have you installed a bunch of apps on the N6ii? If you have one of the apps may be interfering with the Cayin app. Do a backup and try a factory reset and see if you have the same issue.....

Lol, the sunrise is on its way back to AMP3 now for replacement. I'm guessing they won't have any in stock so will have to wait ages :/ if so I'll probably ask for a refund.
