True
I dont think so. My second Fiio Q1 mk2 (first was broken and replaced after some months) started to have very big selfdischarging after several months around 150 mAh per day when switched off. I dont use it now but have to charge it at least once pet two week not to destroy battery completely.I think in 10 years our phones will have 20000mah batterys and you can load it of your phone
But i think the battery will be at least 3-4 years good whit moderate usage then there will be 100 dollar amp dacs that will sound better
Well, I feel your pain, I've been burned like you too. But I don't think FiiO is even close to that bad. For example, I also have an old FiiO Q1 (1st Gen), so you know, their bottom of the barrel old, cheap DAC/Amp. The battery in it still lasts forever, even after a few years of use and abuse. Granted, it's not power hungry, but man did I expect the battery life to fall off a cliff back then. Nope. Little crappy doesn't even give a damn.I dont think so.

I have also other very bad experiences with chines batteries - much lover capacity then declared, low timelife, once bought 3Ah acu for my movie camera and after some time it started to burn in my bag and result - 1200 USD camera was melt down and went to trash can. To say the true I was lucky because I had another SLR camera in the same bag and it had only white lithium dust on the surface. It could be cleaned otherwise another 3000USD would burn.
Once I bought 4 acus with declared 2000mAh but measured was 100mAh, 20x less then declared. My feedback about it was deleted, they accepted only good feedbacks
This is my reality.
Of course, there are also very good Chinese companies and I would like to have Fiio among them. Q5s is really great product from technical point of view and would be great if it would also keep its functionality for some time. Not everybody has enough money to buy flagship device every year.
I got to spend a bit more time with my Q5s this afternoon - I was really enjoying the sound, then reminded myself that I'd been using bluetooth.
90% of the time I choose to connect using cables to milk out every possible bit of quality but as I don't have a cable to connect to my phone I'd used the bluetooth - very nice. I've just ordered a CL06 for future use with my tablet or phone. Having the bluetooth buttons is a major bonus over the xDSD.
I use USB Audio Player Pro for Android, can anyone please tell me whether you can change bluetooth codecs within the phone or app settings or the Fiio app is required?
Thank you. I've only recently started using bluetooth for occasions I don't want to have a big device sandwich in my pocket and don't know much about how it all works.In the developer options on youre android phone you can select under Bluetooth audio codec the LDAC option, then under that is Playback quality that you can set to LDAC standards.
Also there are codec settings in the Fiio App when you connect via Bluetooth with it.
That is the only thing i dont like about my iphone, the lower bluetooth audio quality..
Do you have developer options turned on? The Bluetooth on the Q5s is fantastic sounding. I use it more than via a wired connection.Thank you. I've only recently started using bluetooth for occasions I don't want to have a big device sandwich in my pocket and don't know much about how it all works.
Yes, I do. I've had a look at the various setting tweaks in the past but don't want to meddle with something that causes a conflict.Do you have developer options turned on? The Bluetooth on the Q5s is fantastic sounding. I use it more than via a wired connection.

Dear friend,
The Bluetooth output and usb output is two different output, you could not compare that directly.
Which output are you using? The issue only happen in FiiO Music app or other app as well?
Could not read your video because of the Internet problem here. If you are convenient, you could share the video to us via email(support@fiio.com)
Best regards
Sorry for late reply, I was actually talking about input not output.
However it's all good now I am using Fiio music app which don't have this issue, I guess Spotify doesn't use the exclusive USB mode which is causing this issue.

I only use Q5s with bluetooth from my phone, but everytime I power on Q5s I have to press play button for 2s to pair Q5s with my phone.
Could you change that with the next firmware update to make Q5s remember the last state it is used, so for bluetooth users it automatically pairing with the last device on power up.
Thanks
