Since firmware 1.8 with usb dac priority,qudelix 5k is perfect as usb dac. Plug and play. For people who dont like the bluetooth connecting, and wasting time. Build in charger have to be switch to off , then it workd perfect

Chord Mojo and iFi Hip-Dac. Just received Lotoo Paw S, so I am planning to use that little fella, once I get the original OTG cable from Lotoo. Silly me, I thought that my lightning to USB-C cables will work. Tried 3 or 4 with no joy.

Luxury Precision W2 Portable USB DAC/AMP Sounds great with with the iPhone 12 if looking at the 12 mini most dongles draws power from phone battery. The W2 drains my mini down a bit, other dongles do the same.

There’s the new lotoo S2 and Cayin RU6: R-2R USB-C DAC the RU6 one looks interesting.

Earmen Eagle. Moderate power consumption, USB-A plugs directly into the official Lightning-to-USB adapter, sounds fantastic.

S1, W1, Q3
Each has their strengths and weaknesses
Each has annoying EMI/RF issues.
