Hello Fiio,
I'm really interested in this one, are you planning to sell it on Amazon as you are your other products?
Yes, it will be available in Amazon at about this month.

Best regards

I have the M15 which I really like (and the M11 not the pro model) would this be considered a step up from the M15? I thought nothing was coming out till the end of summer- M17? I hate to spend the money, disabled and funds limited, and find out another player coming out.
This really looks good, does anyone know the price?
Thanks for any help.
There is a review here now that puts the M11 Plus LTD between the M11 Pro and the M15 for audio performance, so no need to worry, and I'm also waiting on the M17 as well - and my M15 is tiding me over nicely for audio, but I really am getting tired of Android 7.:)
https://soundnews.net/sources/daps/fiio-m11-plus-ltd-review-a-worthy-successor/

No, M17 will be an upgrade to M15. It's a minor upgrade to M11 Pro with much faster SOC and latest version of Android.
The M11 Plus LTD is a big improvement in GUI / App performance and responsiveness, if I had the M11 Pro I'd want the M11 Plus LTD - in fact that is the main reason I am interested in the M17 upgrade over my M15, better Android performance and big catch-up in Android OS Level, IMHO it is not a minor upgrade.

And, according to the review above, the M11 Plus LTD has some audible improvements too, perhaps not enough on it's own to upgrade, but in combination with the Lower noise floor, more power and slam, new Femto Clock, Bigger Screen, Android performance increase due to SOC upgrade, and 3 levels up in Android OS release, the M11 Plus LTD is definitely worth upgrading for $100/$200 more.

Or, wait for the FiiO M17 to arrive, and get all of the M11 Plus LTD upgrades plus another bump over the M15's audio performance. :)

I have the M11 Pro and received the M11 Plus two weeks ago. One big thing for me that I'm missing on the M11 Plus is the "tap to wake" screen functionality that is on the M11 Pro. I've been digging through all settings and it isn't there anymore.

Also, my 4.4mm Arctic cable plugs won't fit while the included leather case is on the M11 Plus so I have to remove the case if I'm going to use that cable.

That sounds like a problem. What's the issue with the case? I have an Arctic 4.4mm plug for my Utopias and an M11 Plus on order. Curious as to why it doesn't fit. Might be a deal-breaker for me. Can you upload photos?

"The double-tap option is located in your main device settings under "System-->Gestures". With the always-on display on and double-tap to wake enabled, if you double-tap the screen it should display the lock screen. This is normal behavior in Android 10.Sep 9, 2019"
https://support.google.com/pixelpho...e-is-ambient-mode-for-double-tap-option?hl=en

Based on the exchanges in that thread it was removed from Android 10, and then re-added to Android 10, so depending on where FiiO is in the update stream for Android 10 it might not be there now, but could be later, or it is in a different place than you expect.

Here's a couple of places it was/might be, from latest - when the feature was readded via update to Android 10, to the oldest when they discovered it was removed between Android 9 and Android 10:

"I just got a update by Nov 14, 2019 and they bring the option back under "Display/advance/Lock screen display"
Now my phone is back as used to be. I'm happy!"

"The double-tap option is located in your main device settings under "System-->Gestures".
With the always-on display on and double-tap to wake enabled, if you double-tap the screen it should display the lock screen. This is normal behavior in Android 10.
Do you have always-on display enabled?"

"Regardless, as the article indicates, this is no longer an option in Android 10. If you would like to see this feature return, I suggest that you send feedback directly to Google. "

If those don't work, read the thread and google some more.

Maybe @FiiO knows the answer?

And, case's keeping connectors from seating is a common problem, not all case designs can fit all width / depth connectors. You might see where it is hanging up and awl it open wider, or change the cable/connector to one that does fit.

Sure. Here are photos. The first is just a reference to show the size of the 4.4mm adapter. The second photo illustrates the issue; the edge of the adapter is touching against a section of the leather which prevents insertion. The last photo is to show that you can flip open the bottom end of the case and insert the plug instead of removing the entire case. I have been removing the case when I use this Arctic cable. I'm just using this cable for my headphones. Most of my M11 Plus listening will be with IEM's and I'm not having this issue with any of those cables.

Thanks for the info. None of those suggestions for double-tap to wake are available in settings. I'll reach out to FiiO to see if they might be able to enable the feature.

Thanks so much! Really appreciate the pix -- very helpful.

I put in an order at audio46 with a 6/15 ship date, and now they have no idea when they're getting them. What's going on? Are they getting them at all? I'd prefer to not waste a month waiting if it's not going to happen. Please advise.

Dear friend,

Thanks for the feedback. Yes, the 'Double tap to wakeup' is not supported in M11 Plus LTD currently. We will try to add in later firmware update soon.

Best regards
