I'm attracted to this for the 70g tbh. The last thing that I need to know is UI features, does it support m3u, OTG playlist building, Lyric support, Song Rating etc, just because those things are important for me. I already have a couple of DAPs that sound good (Alien Shozy and AP100), just seeing if there's something that ticks missing boxes for me.

Wonder what it means by 'small volume'? This player isn't loud lol?

Have they solved the dust problem that builds up from under the screen, like from their older models?

  Thread bump. My HM802 sat unused for a few months. Now it has an issue. I charged it for several hours then went to boot and it hung on the boot screen. Only way to get out of that was a battery pull. Now it won't even turn on at all. Tried charging all day and even tried another battery, tried swapping amp card to. Also held the reset button through the little hole in the side. 
 
Nothing seems to work.
 
Any ideas?

 
 
Anyone? Still can't get it to come on at all.

I had the same problem with my HM-901s, it's the battery.

The super mini looks interesting.

Subbed for more info on the supermini..
Wondering what DAC that it is using

 

[Mach3]

I'm guessing it will be a wolfson chipset of some sort.

So nobody as of yet has ordered the Supermini? If not, I might break down and try it as I'd like a new balanced dap to upgrade past the hiss prone HM700. I'm hoping it'll sonically be an upgrade over 1st Gen Fiio X5 too. At the power output for balanced, I'd be curious how a Senn HD700 sounds.

Did you just get a new battery and that fixed the problem? I swapped a known working battery with a friend who has a 901, and still my 802 doesnt work.
 
I was interested in the Supermini but not if I am concerned about reliability.

I got a new battery, current one are different to the old battery. I'll take some photo later.

I just placed an order for the supermini, it's coming from HK to Melbourne, so expect a few days. I will have it with my se846 and mh335dw.
 
I have to say as I am a Chinese, it is rather unusual for supermini to get so less attention here.
It seems like Hifiman just forgot to advertise in the western market this time.

Cool, looking forward to some pics and impressions

 

[Jmop]

Yes! Finally some potential impressions, this thread needs it. I agree with Bruce on what in the world small volume means. The output power on the specs seem way too high even for balanced audio given the size of the device and the suggested number of playback hours. Honestly, I think the blue on the balanced port looks kinda cheap but that's just me.

Do you happened to have a TRRS cable for your SE846 to try the balanced out on the Supermini?

Unfortunately no, but I do have a whiplash twag V3 TRS cable. Which I will consider having it reterminated if the sound out of unbalanced is satisfactory.
 
Based on a post on Chinese forum, during prototype stage the SE846 is one of the reference IEM Hifiman used to reduce background noise of the supermini.
