Is now everyone on the 1.0.4.8 firmware now? If not you should , is great.

 

[INSYDE]

Most már mindenki az 1.0.4.8-as firmware-t használja? Ha nem, akkor nagyszerű.

A W2-ACG típusra még nem mertem feltenni.

yep its great while the update succeed, especially for me, literally just bought the w2-131, searching for firmware, noticing new firmware available on baidu, then randomly update, and succeed.

but kinda felt sorry because of me noticing there is new 1.0.4.8 FW on the baidu site, lots of person got their W2 bricked as well
best of luck for guys who having problem updating their W2 to the latest FW.

I’m on it (W2 OG) and everything seems fine. I use it in HID mode with an iPad Pro (USB-C) since it’s easier to change the volume on the screen for me than finding the dongle and the correct buttons, since the software volume slider is right there on the screen. Love it. I use it in Low vs High gain, since my cans and IEMs are very sensitive, and Tone 2. Not noticed any sound difference with the new firmware, but battery drain is less (maybe 15% less?).

Cheers, Gus

We need to ask Luxuryprecision to introduce more profiles for different IEMs such as IE600, IE900 etc.
The recovery driver works great when you are stuck updating the firmware.

Nope, because the previous one works just fine and i don't want to bother )
If it ain't broke, don't fix it

 

[musicday]

You are missing out the battery drain is reduced and some find some sonic improvements. I was the first one to get stuck updating to the new firmware but the rescue driver helped in no time.
Give it a try.

the battery drain is reduced

Doesn't matter to me, i'm only using it with my laptop. Current driver works perfectly fine, the new one - who knows, so again, why bother.

some find some sonic improvements

There are people who find imaginary sound improvements with every firmware upgrade, i'm not one of them.

 

[musicday]

The W2 is still the best dongle out there. We will see is they come out with a W3 and Lotoo with S3.

You can continue using older driver with new FW if you still need ASIO. No reason to upgrade of course if you don't see fit for yourself, it's the same as video drivers, some install the "latest and greatest", some stick with the old one that proved to work.

Took a leap of faith and updated my W2-131 to 1.0.4.8. It has been acting quite weird with random disconnection since I got them (partly because of my dongle-hating phone Oneplus 9 Pro). Now, it does maintain a relatively more stable connection and the power drain reduction is quite significant.
I didn't detect any sound difference, but a friend with the original W2 updated to 1.0.4.8 said that he found that there are very minor differences in some soundstage and layering, but not necessarily for the better.

yep, the customer service at Luxury & Precision said mostly the update is for increased android stability, also same as u, I noticed reduced power drain using my iPhone 11
