but 5 inch would make the battery even smaller. 6.1 is at least ideal.

Indeed a great idea. Welcome Moondrop.
I hope Google lets this happen, because if I know them, they'll have a problem with this devce merge.
I hope Moondrop are able to achieve hardware decoding, disabled Android 10 onwards.

Seems like you're still stuck in the 80s. Plenty of companies make better portable music players than Sony these days: Astell & Kern, Cayin, iBasso, Fiio, Shanling, Hiby...the list goes on. Apple's iPods were more popular than Sony Walkmans.

My two pairs of headphones for indoor and outdoor usage have outlasted any bluetooth headphones by a very large margin. Can't remember when i first got them. And they only cost $20. And i don't need to worry about charging, they always work indefinitely. No wireless provides such convenience. It will only be a true alternative if they use a completely different type of batteries and TRUE true weireless charging (Contactless, like WiFi). Until then - meh, thanks, but no, thanks.

LOVE PENGUIN, 23 Apr 2024Phone manufacturing is much harder than their other product... moreand at the time when manufacturers race to give their phones the longest update too... it sounds like a losing battle honestly, all the rich audiophiles got A&K DAP already, the poor one would rather buy cheap dongle, and normies don't even have any reason to buy it
if they had the anime girl at least people will talk about it a bit... but then they make it looks like a generic chinese phone
