I might try one of the older firmwares. If I do I will post my results.
I'm using FW 3.3 and still get at least 10 hours of battery life. My X3 is about a year old.

Same here and I got mine from the Massdrop in August 2013.
That's good..almost 2 years and still good battery life. I hope mine is still that strong in a years time. Do you use it a lot?
Pretty much every day.
+10000 I did the same but comparing against the Walkman A17 LOL

Please remind me what's the price and the power output on the A17 again, lol
C'mon guys. Keep it civil. I am just trying to get an all-in-one player, something that I can be happy with. I'm not trying to start any verbal wars here. I needed a new phone, and this seemed like a good way to try and get both a phone and music player in one. Leave the name calling and finger pointing out of it please?
It may sound different and worse than what you are used to but that is just what you think. Most of us like the X3 and think it is well worth the price. I used to have the iAudio X5L which had rockbox and a much better UI. That cost over £250 I think and the X3 is an improvement in sound quality as well being a huge amount louder. The X3 was also about £100 cheaper. The X3 on it's own may not sound as good as what you use but then what is the price difference? For being a music player, the X3 has very good sound quality for the money compared to others at a similar price point. It just has a poor UI which lets it down a bit.
If you added a good headphone amplifier to the X3, you could well get better sound out of that than what you use. If you use the line out of the X3, it is all to do with how good the device is that you plug into it, not so much the X3.
Don't worry I can be civil
My point against the A17 is exactly that with 10mw output it wouldn't be sufficient with a lot of my gear and I would need ti add an amp to use it.
It's like comparing apple and oranges.
Party on guys!
