Can someone tell me this based on usage of Shanling UP4:

1. Battery backup in low gain SE output (guessing 15 hours)?
2. Battery backup in High gain SE output?
3. Battery backup in Dual DAC Boost mode SE output?

I'm streaming from phone, local music files, aptx codec.

Thank you in advance. @Shanling can you help?

Dual DAC mode in SE, using high impedance headphones (ex. Sennheiser HD565 ovation, 150 ohm), which demands high volumes, more or less 4 hours. With lower impedances and lower volumes, more or less 6 hours.

With the low gain mode and low impedance headphones or IEM, it lasts so long I didn't pay attention.

I think I'm getting 7 hours, using iem, 23 ohm.
I'll try maxing volume from mobile and controlling volume with volume wheel.

Thanks, by the way.

Medium volume, low gain, AAC codec and good Bluetooth signal, you are around 15 hours.
Switching to Dual DAC mode, you are closer to 10.
Then it can be affected by volume setting, which codec you using, even how good is signal quality, etc.

Medium volume, dual dac, aptx codec, good signal - how much is it going to be?

Less than 10 hours most likely.

What I understood is, with kz earphone, using aptx, it runs for 5-6 hours. But which one? UP2 or UP4?

For me, on UP4, using dual dac BOOST mode, with aptx, and a hybrid iem with around 18 ohm impedance, it ran for 8 hours 45 min.

Did not understand the later part of your statement from google translation.

I have a first-run UP2 and I just manually updated the firmware using the windows updater. The update seemed to be successful but when it reconnected to Windows it was recognised as an UP4. I have reconnected it to my iPhone and it is recognised as an UP2. The Shanling app now recognises it as an UP2 and is able to connect to it. However, the status info is blank and the version number is blank. The EQ function does not work and the RGB/shutdown volume memory settings do not stick upon reconnection. I have deleted the Shanling app and reconnected but nothing has changed. What are my options here?

On computer, you can ignore it. It sometimes can happen to show up as UP4.

on iOS, if the app shows up like this, it means it's not properly paired with UP2. Please try to unpair it and repair it, sometimes it can take few times.

Cheers, that worked. I completely removed from iPhone, deleted app and repaired.

@Shanling please help me with instructions for how to use the UP4 in USB-DAC mode. I connected it to my laptop (Windows 7), drivers got installed automatically, but then music was not coming through it. Any particular mode to be selected in UP4 or in Laptop? Please help.

Be sure to turn on the UP4 after connecting it to USB.
There is nothing else.

I was planning to get the UP2... My requirements are low, just YouTube music from my Poco X3 phone to a pair of KZ ZS10 Pro...
That's why I spent the past few nights reading through all 80+ pages of this thread... Lol.... Now I regret if I should've done so or not.
I just wanted something simple that works when I switch it on... Not interested to tinker with all the settings and stuff... Just a reliable Bluetooth connection and decent sound quality.
Is it me or these products seems to have lots of intermittent issues? Or could it be those who had posted here are the minority who came in because they happen to encounter issues and the rest of the silent majority are good with it?
I'm not a techie so I'll be dead if significant troubleshooting is required just to get things working. Especially when the after sales policies from online purchases are generally crap, if u know what I'm saying... It's almost a buy and hope for the best scenario...
