I am struggling with this release. It prices out around $150 USD according to the link. I would believe that this completely cannibalizes the M7 sales for $50 less. What is the point of the M7?

 

[Darkblade48]

I'm just a bit upset because I just purchased a Cayin N3 last month during the 11/11 sales!

Does the Chinese version support english or would we be able to flash the international firmware version?

That, I'm not sure of! I would assume eventually Fiio would release an international firmware version as well

Actually, my Chinese speaking friend spoke to the rep on JD. It supports english.
In fact looking at FiiO's past track record for other FiiO(firmware releases, etc) they only have 1 firmware version for their DAPS.

Excellent!

It does make sense that English should be supported right out of the box; it is afterall, just built on a custom flavour of Android

20+ hours of work and FM radio… well, probably, RIP, M7, I'm gonna miss you

Looks at all those features! Looking forward to this coming out.

 

[danimoca]

Same DAC, same chipset as the M7... What are the differences to the M7, at least in terms of specs?

 

[IceOrror]

FiiO has made an official thread https://www.head-fi.org/threads/all-new-fiio-m6-fiio’s-3rd-music-player-based-on-samsung-exynos-7270-featuring-wi-fi-airplay-usb-dac-usb-audio-out-and-aptx-aptx-hd-ldac-hwa-sbc-support.895315/

Maybe we should move to that one if we want to have replies from an official FiiO rep.
