I just stated it above. Because I don't want a touchscreen, I want to eventually replace the battery when it starts going bad, I want a good software experience along with it.

Fiio can't even keep their site in order. They have broken links everywhere. Nothing about it makes me think it isn't just another shitty Chinese-made disposable.

They're good at hardware - that being said no idea how easy it is to replace their batteries. The only devices I've used from them don't have touchscreens.

Maybe your better off with something like a refurbed iPod

  • No, I mean you're trolling in that you basically read nothing about my original comment.

    1) You give a response that doesn't meet half of my requirements. 2) You then give a suggestion that's is fundamentally what I said I did in my original response. Congrats, you demonstrated my gripe about the comments on here too in my original response.

  • At this point, I can only assume you're trolling.

    • I'm not - there's a whole industry around replacing the batteries with modern versions and swapping the spinning disk to giant SSD. And there's different firmware / software if you don't like the apple interface. They tend to have a decent DAC integrated. If you want swappable batteries I imagine that might get you the best longevity in terms of available replacement batteries
