And one more question. Are there any good protective films for the display as with the smartphone? The ones I bought so far were much thinner and scratched much faster. In addition, the cut is not ideal. I had films from upscreen and one that was included with the case from miter. Compared to protective films for a smartphone, they are very inferior. Thanks

benks has a good one

Thanks, I have to look, if they ship to germany. Their cases are not available here. I dont like my case from miter very much. I find it bulky and scrolling on the side of the screen doesn‘t work very well.

Have any of you tried upgrading the battery on the wm1am2 or z2? I found a service offer for the wm1a for way too much money. I like the battery life with the walkman app and screen off. But when streaming, using bluetooth or turning on the display, the battery drains very quickly in comparison. No comparison to my iPhone or any other modern smartphone. Would an upgrade be possible? I optimized the player right at the beginning with Google services er cetera.

Putting in an extra large battery is impractical/expensive. There is no space for a larger battery, unless it extends outside the case, so a new back would need to be fabricated. All this will be expensive and not worth doing. Just for the purposes of extra battery life for streaming, BT, etc., adding a small, thin external battery is a simpler solution.

Allright thanks. I thought, you can buy like an existing battery of ps vita or a Smartphone or so and put it in. I had to do something like that on old minidisc players, where batteries doesnt exist no more. But if there is no room for a bigger battery, it doesnt work anyway.

Look for Zshion screen protector on Amazon. It is a tempered glass specifically designed for the 1AM2/1ZM2.

Its not just a waste of money, it will decrease the sound quality. Sony did not ground the 4.4mm intentionally

I had Sony replace my screen with this issue. I used to see this very obviously on 1st boot, then would fade (but still slightly there) pasy 30+ minute mark

Did they do it as part of warranty or they charged you?

If you find the Walkman battery subpar than I'm afraid you will have tough time with other brands.. AK, Cayin, Shanling that last 8-12 hours.
Back to your question - are you happy with voiding the warranty?

That is because it is an DAP and not an smartphone.

The FiiO M11 Plus ESS for example has an 5000mAh battery (double the size of an iPhone Mini and still much larger than any other iPhone) and the battery drains even faster. Roughly the half battery life of the Walkman.

So the Walkman is already very good optimized, i am afraid to say that there is nothing you can do.

I only use mine when I'm connecting my AM2 to an amp.

They claimed that they can't see anything and the unit is working fine. But my mild OCD can't stand that white band, so I had it replaced paying out of pocket

i don’t do streaming but I love your idea.

Qobuz currently Supports Android 6, but yes, it makes much more sense to just use local files.

I klick the buy button in the shop, open the download app, it automatically starts downloading and i am done.

So i don't understand why i should use an streaming app that basically does exactly the same, but limits me. Most people who use streaming, download the music they listen to so they can listen to it offline. Why not just buy the music and have it as a FLAC file.

I use Spotify for it's discover weekly and release radar features
