How many titles can the M7 handle? I have ~20.000 titles (mostly FLAC encoded) and I need more than +512 GB storage... many devices cannot handle many files due to limited power (CPU / ROM / RAM / database etc.pp).

Dear friend,

Theoretically, the M7 could handle your files without problem. But it would take some time for loading the playlists.

Best regards

Any estimates?

Hopefully it's not as slow as the other units

Dear friend,

May need several seconds. You may have a try in the local store when it is available in your country.

Best regards

So when it's going to be available?
And also is there is going to be Google play store pre-installed?

I don't think that's possible since I don't believe this unit even has WiFi installed and Google Play Store requires connectivity. Maybe you'll be able to drag and drop APK for install? Maybe not even that....

No Google Play Store and no app installation.

So far the prices for the M7 look quite high, over $300 AUD.
For the price, I could get the Sony NWA45, Hidiz AP100 or even the Plenue J.
The M3 provided great value as you couldn't get much better for the price. Hell, you could make the same argument for the X1 2nd gen.
However, the M7 seems quite pricey and I wonder what does it offer to compete with other players at its price range?

In My region it priced as 235 USD. Fo this specification the price is extremely high . With same specification Shanling M0 priced as 99 usd, Hidisz Ap80 as 149 USD, Hiby R3 with better specification 200 USD. Don't know what fiio wants to prove. In this thread Fiio official said that this player is going to compete Sony NW-A45. I own a Sony NW-A45 and for 235 USD no one going to pick M7 because it prices same. I think Fiio is missing something, all their products price increased drastically this year. May be they want to collect more money form the market in this year instead providing bang for the bucks in the market. M7 should be priced under 149 USD, otherwise it is hard to pay only for a stylish chassis and Exynos processor.

I would go with the M7 everytime over the Sony NW-A45. Its sound quality sucks.

I only got the A35 just because it had LDAC but the M7 has that too so there's no longer a point of getting the Sony.

The NW-A45 and 35 sound exactly the same. The only differences are a poorer display and now it can be used as a usb dac. That's it.

45 on the left and 35 on the right
