1. How to tell whether the song is a high-resolution lossless and digital master one?
See Figure 1. There are two icons on the playback page. The left one means Apple high-resolution lossless, and the right one means Apple digital master.

2. Where to see the sampling rate and bit depth?
See Figure 2. Tapping the "Lossless" icon on the screen will pop up a large icon with the sampling rate and bit depth of the song displayed. By the way, the sampling rate refers to 44.1kHz, 48kHz, 96kHz, 192kHz, etc., The bit depth refers to 16bit, 24bit, 32bit.

3. How to know if I am listening to high-res lossless music?
In fact, the most visual way is to find a USB DAC/Amp with a display screen. For example, when FiiO's BTR5 is connected to an iPhone, it will show the sampling rate of the currently playing digital music on its screen.

Dear friend,

At present, the Apple music app can be installed in M11. But you could not sign in your account in Apple music app. This problem is a problem of the 7872 platform itself which need to be solved by Samsung.

Best regards

Will the brand new KA1 work with Apple Lossless music (ALAC)?

I've tried the same in Android with a Fiio BTR5 2021 and my Google Pixel 6 Pro and a 24-bit/192Khz album from Ariana Grande. Am I doing something wrong? (The phone and the BTR5 are connected through the USB-C to USB-C cable.

Dear friend,

Please disconnect the Bluetooth connection to check again. Does the issue still remain?

Best regards

It seems to be an issue with the Pixel 6 Pro. I've connected the BTR5 to a Samsung Galaxy A52s and it works perfectly!

This is a known issue and Google should release a fix in the June update (I hope so!)

Seems to be that the Pixel 6 Pro is not so "pro" at all!
