A big appendage like that completely eliminates the portability and convenience that the X1 was designed to bring...

Depending how well it can be tucked away (I've never tried it so purely speculation) it'd be less obstructive than strapping an amp to the player.

I agree with both of you:

An amp is more durable, and made to be strapped to a DAP, build for portability. This card could be too fragile to just let it dangle from the X1. A case would be optimal. And this would probably not impair the portability.

Why do people think that micro SD cards are so much more expensive than their SD brethren? If you compare cards of the same size and class from the same manufacturer, like the Sandisk Ultra 64GB micro and standard SD cards, then you'll see price differences of less than 10%, or, less than the cost of an ugly, fragile adapter.

i am sorry to hear you are going for the sandisk brand.

  Very nice, I actually thought that the card slot is on the buttom... ow well..
looks good and fits right it with the X1. im still wondering, since the backplate is made out of plastic, if it 
would be possible to shove this whole thing  below it so that it wont stick so much out and cut a small hole on the eight side of the pic so that you can insert the sd cards, 
have you tried opening the back cover? is there any space there?

 
The whole space inside is occupied by the big battery, so no, there is no more space for the adapter.

If FiiO come out with a silicon case for X1 that could hide the adapter away neatly. Just ease it on gently.

Just don't catch the ribbon or kink it....

 
sure, silicon case is included in the box.

 

[JamesFiiO]

  I actually was thinking bout making a theme for the x3 that looks much like this, vertical layout tho... Hopefully Fiio won't mind if I shamelessly rip off the idea - or perhaps I'll just call it a homage

 
of course we don't mind!
 
btw, X1 may supports custom wall paper. and we will add this feature in x5 too in the future.

Is the approximate release date still somewhere during August?

Also wondering this.... August is soon approaching...

Around $100.

So does that mean $100=£100 or can one but hope?

 

[mangel312]

are the final specs hammered out yet?
 
I would love to see a complete feature set with some photos.

 

[Saaki]

I would love to see an option to browse by "album artist" as well as simply by "artist".

I don't think so, because $100 is only around ~£53 if I'm not mistaken
