Please advice your opinion about our X3, all will be welcomed!

look pretty nice to me but the button and the screen look a bit smaller than i thought

Looks good Im definitely buying one! I dont give a crap about the screen size or keys. As long as it sounds good and has stable firmware.

 

[BlutoSlice]

I like the buttons, please make sure it says Fiio on the top not portable player.

 

[Somnambulist]

Like the guy who photoshopped your pic suggests, I think Fiio on the front would be better than 'portable player'. Other than that it looks up to the task, although the main thing of course will be what it's like to use i.e. the firmware.

Another vote for Fiio logo instead of portable player .  Three votes so far... 
 
One question though... Is the finish glossy plastic, or some other material ? I would be much happier if it were niсkel ... 

 

[Headcan]

That looks real smart on its own, but I wonder if it would not perhaps be too much of a contrast when docked on E9.  Would it be possible to get a photo with X3 docked to E9, please?  I don’t care if it says “Portable Player” or FiiO on top.  Looks good either way.

The bevel looks less plasticy than the earlier prototype, which is nice as far as aesthetics go.

 

[kanonathena]

No "Portable Player" or "Fiio", both are redundant and distract viewing the screen and the buttons. Have a look at the design of ipod nano 4 or 5.
 
You want it to look simple and classy, not unnecessary and cheap.

It's small and slim just the way I like it. Tempting pics right there. I wish it will be released soon without any delays. But don't rush it FiiO. Make sure it's working like the way it should be before releasing the X3. Thanks for the update.

Still ugly to me, but do agree about the removal of portable player will help, it makes it look (even more) like generic shenzan nonsense.

 

[samuel219]

That plastic button is ugly to me,and I'll be dubious about it's durability.
Metal button will make sense.
 
So,by far,how long is the play time once charge in the latest test model?
And just as the first thought,there is no internal memory right?
So,I think the background hiss will improve in much with other players.
How your team deal with the volume gain?
 
Thanks,feiao

here is my suggestion to fiio....the layout is kinda off for me...human brain normally is more adapt to perpendicular layout instead of slanting one
i found this is better layout for me


sorry for the lousy drawing skill of me...==''

I agree with what the person in this photo has done.. remove the grey border, remove the grey lines around "portable player" and either put Fiio, or nothing at all.
 
I would also get rid of the grey bar along the bottom...   keep it simple
