![]() It measures 114.2mm x 14.8mm x 66.2mm and sports a 480 x 800 touch screen. Size wise, but we’ll get back to that later, I think the X5iii’s size is just right. You however do get a 2.5mm balanced output next to the regular 3.5mm SE output, and I personally am glad to see that. The X5iii comes with the golden High Resolution sticker and unlike the Fiio X7, it doesn’t use swappable amplification modules. Like the X7 DAP, the new X5iii is an Android based player (5.1 to be exact) and Fiio gives you the choice to use it in either the Android or Pure Music mode. The beautiful new X5iii is available in two different colors: titanium and black. This review was based on weeks of intensive daily use of the X5iii (not a tour model or shop audition). It’s a fact that everyone wants a piece of the DAP pie, but it rarely happens that one company has five different DAPs in their product lineup. In the meantime Fiio now has a whole series of DAPs with the M3, X1, X3, X5 and X7. Where are the days that Fiio released the X3, the first of their DAP series. ![]() The expectations as usual were/are high but just looking at the specs and possibilities this 3 rd gen absolutely is a mid-fi killer DAP. The X5 always was extremely popular and a lot of people have been waiting for this new unit. Fiio however still is the Price/quality king although they have been launching more expensive items as well. This time however it is a major overhaul with a completely new DAP as a result. Now we’re almost two years further and Fiio is back with another edition of their X5. The original X5 DAP was launched late 2013 or early 2014 and it wasn’t before May/June 2015 that it got an update with the X5ii. This time however they’re back with a major update of one of their most successful DAPs, the Fiio X5. It’s been hard to keep up with Fiio lately and it seems plenty of new products and updates will see the light in 2017. It doesn’t have to be returned as Fiio is a Headfonia partner.
