Shanling UP5 - Our new flagship portable Bluetooth DAC/AMP
Aug 2, 2022 at 9:42 PM Post #842 of 970
@Shanling If the UP5 is connected in USB DAC mode to a phone, can it simultaneously transmit HI RES music over Bluetooth?
UP5 is only Bluetooth receiver, it doesn't work as transmitter.

Hello!
For the convenience of using the product, please add the following item to the menu (settings): Change the start / pause button to the on / off button?
When walking, it is not convenient to grope and pause (UP5 is in a case, and the button is small and inconvenient to press, you have to get the product), but the large button - volume control is convenient for pressing start / pause (when you carry it in your pocket).

I'm experiencing ridiculously sluggish charging issue, anyone feel the same?
This can sometimes happen. Please go to the menu and turn on/off the charging few times, it should help.

1. You can turn off physical buttons when the screen is off. Go to settings, general, key lock. I turn off volume as it tends to turn easily.

2. You can then control music player on the touch screen controls. (One press the volume button to turn screen on)

3. I also turn on "always on display" (with all info displayed) cause its sexy

Wrong thread. Not an M6 Ultra.

@Shanling Any plans for an update on the UP5 as with the UP4 22 version? Or any plans of a "Bigger" version of the series?

UP4 22 was simple update from ES9218p to ES9219C.

UP5 is already using ES9219C, so I'm not sure what exact update you would like to see.

As in Bigger, you mean device in size of Chord Mojo? This category of portable DAC/AMPs?

Something with more power and maybe support for Aptx Adaptive(upcoming Lossless) rivaling the ifi Gryphon, Xduoo XD05, Topping G5.
Still Bluetooth just "bigger".

None of that applies to the UP5 unfortunately.

I just bought a UP5 because I wanted a small, lightweight, pocketable bluetooth DAC/Amp when out for a walk. I have in ifI Gryphon but it is a bit heavy and bulky in the pocket of my shorts.

I am really liking the UP5, it is surprisingly powerful, sounds excellent, is easy to use other than it being physically small but that is obviously just a trade off, the Android control app works well, it is well built and the battery life is very good.

No complaints at all.

I see a lot of comments about slow charging which is correct but I don’t see that as a big deal and I have to imagine that Shanling made a conscious decision to make it that way, perhaps they know the longevity of the battery is improved that way. Frankly I just accept that Shanling know better than I do so I’m OK to leave it charging for as long as it takes, no big deal.
