Парни, добрый день, подскажите как заблокировать колесо громкости при выключенном экране, а то в кармане постоянно изменяется громкость.

Yeah, they don't care about it. Software support from iBasso is really bad. I had DX 260 and then FiiO M23. Both has same SoC and RAM but OS on M23 runs much faster and is more stable... Of course DX260 is a nice DAP but when I see how iBasso don't care about software updates, then I'm not going to buy any new DAP from them.
Moving from a Fiio M11+ ESS to a DX180 now. I personally think that this is definitely not accurate.
Look at the launch date of M11+ ESS (Feb 2022) to the last firmware release at Dec 2022 (10 months)

In comparsion of
DX320 (Feb 2022) ast firmware release at Sep 2023 (19 months)
DX220 (Apr 2019) and the last firmware release at Dec 2021 (32 months)
DX170 (Aug 2022) and the last firmware release at Apr 2024 (20 months)

M11 (March 2019) and last firmware release at Dec 2020 (21 months)
M11+ ESS (Feb 2022) and last firmware release at Dec 2022 (10 months)
M15 (Dec 2019) and last firmware release at Dec 2020 (12 months)
M17 (Nov 2021) last firmware release at Dec 2022 (11 months)

Hiby R6 III (Feb 2023) last firmware release at Mar 2025 (25 months)

M23 (Apr 23) ??? I will be puzzled on Fiio strategy given that now they got JM21, and M21 launching soon.
Correct me if I am wrong, M23 which is using the 660 SOC is still running Android 10 ?

PS: I don't think I will buy another Fiio again looking at their previous note on Android updates.

iBasso is generally really good about FW updates. They only release them to address bugs or for a new feature. DX260 was a solid DAP for me when I owned it. Everything worked as it should. It was Android 11 but who cares. All the apps I used still worked perfect. They do their software in-house. If anyone has a bug they should report it to Paul. Now they are coming out with DX260 MKII but doubt we will see it in the US until the import taxes are removed.

PS Fio QCC is horrible!

I think Fiio has got a place in game. Since they don’t hold value well, buy it used at half price. Just don’t expect long term OS ipgrade, even if they promise to do it.

The other side of the coin. I have an old M15 still on android 8. Tidal streams fine on it. As long as it’s free of bugs. The android version doesn’t matter that much.

Hi everyone, iBasso DX260 is a great compact and quite unique DAP. After hearing that it was being taken off the market, I bought one for my collection. The DX260 manages to play for more than the price, which is quite rare these days. In my opinion iBasso DX260 wins over Astell&Kern SE300 in detail and transparency of sound. The DX260 slightly outperforms the Lоtоо Pаw Gold Tоuch in sound resolution and technicality. The DX260 offers more neutral balance and high detail than the Shanling M9 Plus. All in all, the iBasso DX260 is a very, very enjoyable toy.

Don’t understand. Is this update- new one? As there is already 128gb version on Chinese market.
More a refresh than anything else. Ibasso couldn't source Snapdragon 660 chips anymore, so have now changed to the Snapdragon 665 chip, which is similar in performance, but can run Android 13, where to OG version is Android 11. Looks like they have doubled the internal storage to 128Gb as well, apart from that the specs are the same as the OG version.

Also brings it in line with it's little brother the DX180 which already has all those updates

Does it mean that 128gb version is 100% new one? With 665 and android 13?
