Hey everyone,

I'm looking to buy my first DAP, a mid-to-high-end DAP that works on Android.
One of my main criterias is that it has a functionality that makes it switch from full-Android mode to pure music mode (it will lock the music app so you can't use the phone for anything else). As I don't like being distracted by things unrelated to music.

Any idea if these models have a pure music mode ? :

- new hiby r6 : Full Android 9 mode with google play.
- sony NW-ZX507 : Full Android 9 mode with google play



(note to self, these models seem to have a pure music mode after watching youtube videos :
- fiio m11 pro : Full Android 7 mode (no google play) / "Pure Music mode" -> lock the phone for music app usage only
- A&norma sr25 : Very modded Android 9 (no google play), no switch between two modes but because it's a very restricted Android you can more easily concentrate on the music player
- iBasso DX220 : Full Android 8 mode (no google play) / "Mango mode" -> will reboot to a music-player-only mode)

Ibasso dx220 isn’t pure music mode. It is a pure Operating System that is made dedicated to music alone.....the rest of what you listed are pure music mode which is booting into android Operating system with minimal services . Huge differences

Agreed. Ibasso dx220 dx200 dx300 all have pure mango mode wich is based on linux (and is not just a flight mode android with other apps disabled like fiio).
