Isnt the L shape is better in this matter? straightpin seems to take so much space isnt it? what if the iem is big shelled?

I bought straight, using with Shuorer S12. The hooks ride slightly higher but because they don't touch the skin as much I find it very comfortable. The hooks are light and stems are flexible. As long as they're somewhere up behind your ears you'll be fine.

Yes the case closes with the straight adapters, but I do have to push the the bands in a bit. I guess the angled adapters might be slightly better. But if you have the straight they work fine

That's a MAJOR usability improvement over the v1.31 beta firmware that first introduced ambient mode. Nice!

Would love to see a full change log, I wonder if they fixed the connecting while case is closed issue and/or improved pairing/connectivity when switching source devices.

How do I install the beta firmware? I am using android.

The BT 5.2 Aptx Adaptive USB Adapter never arrived from Ali/China.

Now available on Ebay UK with one seller UK based (rest in China) so ordered one from them.

Not sure re: the 1.38 beta and Android. I no longer have my UTWS5 and was speaking more to hypotheticals of the new beta.

@FiiO This is a show-stopper for me. Current EQ options in the app are dreadful to the point of why did they bother.

If everything goes well, the EQ support will be added in next firmware update in next month.

@FiiO is there any way to see which codec is being used? Do they switch codec automatically if there’s a poor signal?

Some Android mobile phone could show the Bluetooth codec in the Bluetooth page:

Get the Beta file, I think it's somewhere on this chain. Download it locally on your device. Hit the gear in the app, point the Firmware Upgrade to the Local Upgrade then find the Beta file wherever you downloaded it. Load it up and it should upgrade. At least that is how I did it on my iPhone.

Yeah, had no idea. They don't list that in the beta app, or else I just missed it. HUGE plus! Works like a charm for me.

Can you give a preview as to what type of EQ we can expect? Will it be similar to what is currently offered in the BTR5? That has always been glitchy for me so I hope the implementation for the UTWS5 will be better.

@FiiO will the UTWS5 MMCX be back in stock on Amazon soon, or would I be better off ordering from AliEx or HiFiGo?

@FiiO I hope you had a great holiday ! Thanks for the beta software. I have reported some bugs to the support email.
Firmware 1.3, Audio Bug: Repeats power off message when shutting down
Firmware 1.3.8, Audio Bug: One channel might randomly disconnect and stay disconnected.
Workworund: Restart the head phones
FiiO control App 2.8, Visual Bug in Dark mode, Settings icon is black on black background (difficult to find)

Thanks in advance for looking into this, much appreciated !

Dear friend,

The UTWS5 MMCX version would not be in stock in Amazon soon. We do not have enough UTWS5 to arrange the shipment to Amazon currently.

Best regards
