I agree
I think the best type of product should be Q5s-type DAC/AMP with an SD card slot. Smartphone controls the device via bluetooth. Audio is not being transferred via bluetooth, phone just controls the audio playback of the device. Audio is being played from the SD card with full quality.
100% agree. There's no reason why an iOS or Android app couldn't control the hardware remotely, when in DAP mode. Then, when you want to use it in DAC/amp mode, the audio gets streamed to the device via BT from whatever app you prefer to use. Then, the device maker could devote more resources to making their app as great as possible, not worry about maintaining an entire custom OS in addition to their music app. That would be a huge win for consumers, and would probably allow FiiO and other hifi makers to focus on areas that would provide the most bang for their buck.
