Me neither, but I read a think or two about them.Never tried those 2..
If you are skeptical on chinese made DAPs then i suggest to just stick to branded one like the sony. So far i only ever tried Shanling DAPs after coming from my A55 & they are fine until now. You can also try to check if they open a thread on those daps & see what's other member here experience with their DAPs.Me neither, but I read a think or two about them.
Since they're both quite similar, with the exception of battery capabilities. It all comes down to reliability/durability.
I dont wanna have software or hardware issues 4-5 months after getting one of these. For some reason I get this feeling like DAPs don't last as long as regular mp3 players.
I had an ipod nano that lasted 7 years without any issue at all. An ipod touch for 4 years. A sony walkman a17 for 7 years as well. No battery drainage, no broken buttons, just a screen burn up on the ipod touch. But it worked flawlessly.
I would like to know if I can expect at least half of that time with any of the DAPs I mentioned.
I'm fairly new to the audiophile world. It's normal to be skeptical to any product I haven't heard about. That's why I'm reading as much as I can to inform myself and make the right decision according to my needs.If you are skeptical on chinese made DAPs then i suggest to just stick to branded one like the sony.

So if you are asking which should you take & see if they are going to be reliable in the long run, with my lack of experience with other chinese brand DAP, I can't tell you because it will be unfair.
