  Come on Can you please check if it has playlists support, like in rockbox?
 
Its a deal breaker for many people.

It has a simple favourite list that you can add and remove to/from it.
 
edit:
Finally got my free silicone case from QLS after about 3 months. Strangely it was shipped from Switzerland.

Nice review I would like to add something about QA360, its soundstage is not very wide, but its depth is above average performance. In spite of a bit narrow stage, imaging and separation is really good, better than HM802 with standard card. 
 
That player has a 700 USD+ performance.

Thank you mate!
 
You are right about the width, its not very wide, but I am pretty sure, soundstage depth is very good. I even had another detailed listen upon your comment. I feel the soundstage in overall is spacious, and not at all narrow.
 
I assume, maybe due to hardware/firmware updates or other variations, we are hearing slightly different sonic outputs?

Yes, the stage gives a spacious feeling thanks to the neutral air between instruments. Some daps produce warm air between them. 360 does a good job regarding this. However, there isn't a wide stage here.

so what is the sound signature difference if we are using wav only firmware ?

Sorry, I dont have 360 any more. I didn't try it with wav only firmware. Some say, wav only firmware is better.

Without hi-res FLAC this is a no go.  Also I do not know if it can work as a DAC with your PC.

You can't use it as external DAC.
