but is it as skinny as that phone? The positive I see with it is that it's super slim. so that makes it more pocket potable. As Mr Moondrop said..."phone sucks, but DAP rocks."

That thing is too chonky to be a "phone like DAP." I think that's what he was referring to? A skinny phone like DAP, but without the phone components. That Hiby is chonky and a battery waiting to blow up.

Pretty skinny and smaller. Lesser than a fat sexy fingers width and shorter than length of a small ac remote
But it isn't a phone of course.

The concept of a phone with a good implementation of DAP-level audio is really great, but with a single but relatively significant drawback. I'm referring to the battery life, since the phone works 24/7. With full use of the DAP feature, the battery will degrade so quickly that more frequent service replacements will be required. I give the first battery 2 years max (or less). I am therefore a fan of separate solutions. Otherwise, for a 4.4 balanced output they have my respect and the price seems excellent (if everything works as it should).

I wouldn't mind the case to be larger. :/

I ordered mine from them, as soon as it went on sale, and I already received it a while ago.
I think they're restocking supplies.

I'm waiting for them too.
After much hesitation I took them
(I didn't hesitate because of the product itself,
but because of the too large amount of material coming out on the market which 'diverts' my purchases).
Why 2.5???? I wish it had 4.4mmFor fans of the 9038 series dongle, there's a new E1DA 9039S incoming.
Specs:
ES9039Q2M DAC
2.5 mm balanced only
Low output impedance
Whopping 400 mW power (at 32 ohm, THD 1%)
Unfortunately, seems there is no 4.4 mm or 3.5 mm port, and 2.5 mm cables aren't that popular nowadays?

They are including a 4.4mm connector for $5 extra.
The engineer (Ivan) seems to take offence that some people think that 4.4 sounds better than 2.5, so 2.5mm it is

Are you sure? I think it's because the case is too thin for 4.4mm. He probably didn't want to design some bigger device.They are including a 4.4mm connector for $5 extra.

Very enjoyable read. Morning tunes and coffee went perfectly with your review. Well written, enjoyable flow, hit all the capabilities and made me add the TSMR X to my investigate list.
I feel the same way about switches that you did. I'll try them out eventually. Thanks.

I've seen forum reports of these 4.4 mm to 2.5 mm adapters snapping off at the 2.5 mm portion cause it is thinner. Indeed, an awkward twist or snag when using a dongle on-the-go is not unexpected.
Anyway market forces will dictate everything. I suspect the 2.5 mm market is smaller than 3.5 mm or 4.4 mm, so we will see how sales go, which is the chief barometer.
