  I am also wondering how people feel the Android OS is doing with only 1G of RAM?

 
The FiiO X7 does very well with only 1GB of RAM. Switching between apps is quick and fluid, and apps are suspended and resumed less often than you would think with only the 1GB of RAM.
 
I think this is because of FiiO's customized version of Android - according to them, many things have been stripped out in the name of fast and fluid operation despite the underpowered hardware (in the Android world) in the X7.

^ Thanks, but isn't the E12a designed for IEMs and has less power than the E12, or am I confused? As well, do you like loud listening? I listen quite loud it seems, but I can't imagine that the Leap puts out anywhere near the 100mW that the X7 IEM amp does. Thank you for the reply.

Initially I had some concerns, however, on my unit, I have had zero problems with switching apps or hanging. It has decent response times and I was supposed at how fluid my unit performed in android mode.

This is ofc with normal usage for a dap, with some streaming thrown in to the mix and a minute amount of using the internet when I was stuck in Germany with a dead phone.

Sorry to ask this I have tryed serching and can not find the post I am lookng for.

A few weeks ago someone was asking about streaming and it pausing in middle of tracks. There was a setting on the X7 somewhere to help with this issue which I am doing my best to find.

I have only started to experiance this since moving to the new place. My unit is due to be replaced so having a little farewell session before it is missing for a week or 2.

  One thought about wifi... I still had issues of Spotify stopping randomly during play, after much toying with settings I went to Wifi > Advanced settings and turned off "Wifi optimization", it's a battery saving feature activated by default and it cured my problems.

FYI, I found out from Fiio today that the leather cases they manufactured are going to be delayed in shipping out because they were not happy with the way they turned out. They will notify us when they are ready again.

I wish they'd make the real leather ones the same dark color as the leatherette. I don't like the blonde leather--can you say sweaty palm stains anyone? TMI?

I agree with you.

Yes, mine gets warm right away, but never too warm. Kinda nice in The North Woods in winter, maybe not so much in summer--speaking of sweaty palms...
 
(There was suppose to be a quote from the person wondering about their X7 getting warm a little ways back. Hmmm, I swear I hit "Quote".)

The light leather looks cheap imo, dark brown or black for me.

its going to be added with a future FW update. I think they might be trying to make sure its perfect before it comes out. I am sure they could release if they chose to but I would rather they get it as close to perfect first, imo.
