If used with MQA capable software (for most people that's just Tidal), it can do 16x MQA (8X hardware on UP5, 2X in software on the computer).
No line out.

Interesting. will definitely demo it with iDevices just to see it will work. Sounds promising.

Does the UP5 have Next Track function ?

Not sure what exactly you mean by this?
UP5 has basic playback control (play/pause, previous, next) on the button on left side.

Does the UP5 have Overcharge Protection?

Can I charge the UP5 while it being used? Will it Charge FAST Enough while using LDAC?

Yes, you can use UP5 while being charged and it charges fast enough even when using LDAC.

For prolonged use on charger/as USB DAC, we recommend to turn off the charging.

Not released to international market yet. You can also send email to Musicteck, showing your interest into UP5.

Are you going to sell cases with clips to wear UP5 on the t-shirt? Or it's too heavy for that?

@Shanling thank you very much. The UP5 would be very convenient and desirable. I will reach out to @MusicTeck to let them know there is interest in having this product available for purchase in the US.

UP5 actually comes with a leather case in the box.

Same design of case as our UP4 case, so it can be put on like strap or belt, not really on tshirt.

That's...not really practical if I want to attend a call on the go. You should consider putting a plastic clip case like the one comes with UP4

Agree. The plastic clips on the UP4 are extremely useful.

I agree with the others - although the leather case is great for putting in your pocket, it's worse than useless if you plan to use the microphone or to look at the display. If I had to choose just one, I'd rather the plastic - though for $179, it seems reasonable to ask for both.

Also, though I agree the power output isn't enough to make me jump from the up4 to up5, I'm hoping the new chipset removes the 44.1 kHz restriction on the USB input!
