The iPhone and iPad should output bit-perfect without down-sampling, if you're using a newer phone with a newer iOS, and you're using the Camera Connection Kit or similarly compatible cable with it.
Android would usually down-sample -- I don't remember if the latest Android versions fixed this.
More information about what iOS and Android version you're using would be helpful here.
Thanks, Currawong. You're right that the output is bit-perfect. I've tried other songs with 96k, it shows that correctly. So I guess the distortion is not caused by downsampling, but the decoding work didn't bypass iphone or ipad's internal dac. However, there is no problem using the MacBook Pro. Comparing Ed's "The Joker and the Queen" with an iPhone/iPad and a Macbook, I find it obvious the treble from the former is distorted.
For Android, I'm using a dumb Redmi phone. It is Android 7.
