I have been using Backblaze’s unlimited cloud backup to protect all my data - terabytes of it - for a flat monthly or yearly fee, for years. I highly recommend them as a backup solution.

Thank you for being one of the only few reviewers showcasing the menu and ui completely in depth, I wanted to pull the trigger but sadly even though there are lots of stuff to tune the things I was looking for were not there, I was looking for tempo and pitch frequency tuning in a un-hooked manner. a few android music player apps support this feauture, haven't found the non android player yet that does it aswell sadly
i cant believe it. i Bought it last week, waiting for delivery now. Spent several hours on interent looking for some good reviews... and i got it here just after i got the dap. wrrrr :D
Great detailed review!!
We really loved the smooth snappy user interface with high quality UAT Bluetooth transmission. We really hope you liked it too!!
Thank You
Its baffling how many reviewers don't listen to RnB, Rap, Pop combo and so many listen to rock old and new, metal, blues, jazz. Zeos still is the most versatile of the bunch if not perfect 🤷♂️.
Probably because the quality of a lot of that music is poor, and once you start getting half-decent gear, the lack of mastering quality becomes painfully obvious.
@@Currawong you might be onto something, but bad music is bad music period. mastering is irrelevant. good labels do have decent mastering most of the time, its the balance that counts, Lounge is a perfect example of mediocrity that is mastered to perfection. Music falls into the 20% power law distribution of creativity and i respect how the general populous rewards talent many times more than mastering for the same reason even though sometimes the mastering is basic or subpar.
I'd guess that most audiophiles don't listen to crap music which obviously includes rnb, rap and pop
Yuck Z reviews. People really watch his vids ha
Why is it baffling?
MUST READ FOR HIDSZ AP80: Fragile unit and expensive to fix(Cost to repair screen is almost the same price as buying new)
I dropped my unit from waist level onto floor(protective case and film installed from day1). Screen not cracked, no physical damage but the screen is busted. Not a great after sales user experience and also no repair centers - I live in Singapore. Also no hold button, I use or rather used to use the player while working out and it would often unlock and messing with either music or going into the settings. The only pros for me about the player is size and aesthetic & button placement.
Same for the pro version?
had the Ap80 the headphone jack output is mechanically weak, it broke on me, there is a cut in the pcb for the connector , so it is floating , the soldering is weakened by the weight of the connector itself !
the regular ap80 have some hardware issues but they already fixed it on the pro i think
jack is tight. which is nice because then ap80 wont easily fall off. but that tightness puts some pressure on it
Dont you find the fade in every time you play a song annoying? Is there a way to turn it off?
ap80 has no fade in that i know of. its probobly mastered into your song tracks. or you could try turning on gapless playback
That's what am asking
You ever found a way to turn it off?
I'm always curious how it holds up after months of use....seems like a lot of these are good for a short time then fail or fall apart.
Yep exactly what happened to my hidizs p60
Usually they fall apart after people accidentally step on them.
The on off/volume switch on my AP80 has become faulty and it can take up to 5minutes just to start it. I love the sound quality but the menu function is laggy and cumbersome. It is worth the sound quality for the price. HIDIZ made me pay the postage from Australia to Hong Kong when another HIDIZ unit I purchased was faulty on arrival, so beware, their after sales service is bad and mean.
Why less review on this good one player...?
Thanks man!!
Great review!
Will you by any chance going to review the ADX5000 from Audio Technica?
Are you able to use a cable with a mic and buttons. Mine doesn’t work. Thanks
Wish you'd review ifi hip dac. It's almost a year old now. But I don't think anyone has opened it up.. 😂
You took this with smartphone amazing...Do u Have complaints of Super* review...?
Hello, new subscriber & to the world of music players, love your video! I was wondering what music format do you usually use? WAV, FLAC?
Thanks!!
FLAC. WAV is double the size and doesn't store metadata (info about the music). If you're a Mac user like me, ALAC is fine too.
Currawong Thank you for the quick & insightful response! Again, love the content!!!
@@Currawong This is why I convert all my WAV files to AIFF :)
convert files with fre:ac converter. just convert all lossless files to flac and dont convert any lossy files
@Currawong
This can take ALAC?
Please review some earbuds like VE Sun, SimPhonio Dragon D3, Ksearphone Bell-ti 3, DQSM turandot, Ourart QJ21 thanks
I wont be reviewing earbuds, sorry.
If u pause song and comeback after standby is it needed to wake it up again...and wat about cross fade eating up initial few seconds of song ...
ap80 has settings for idle and standby. also has settings for starting at track or position etc...
Confused if the balanced output was the better one or the single ended one?
The balanced.
The crossfade function on my AP80 Pro does not seem to work. I've bought 2 units, and neither fades from one song to the next. Any thoughts?
I though it automatically fades songs in and out?
Question, does the audio from the FM Radio also come out through the balanced output or only through the phone output?, Thanks
The first thing he said about the radio was "It only works if you use the 3.5mm audio jack" so no, it only works with the standard 3.5mm not the balanced 2.5mm
@@DerpyDooReviews Theoretically it may be possible, provided something is in the 3.5mm port to be used as an aerial.
review the hiby r3 pro/saber or cayin n3pro
i dont like the headphone jack on top of hiby r3
How do you put songs on it?
You put them on a micro SD card first.
So simple question how get data from laptop to player
Copy music files to a micro SD card and insert that in the player.
@@Currawong how I can copy data from my laptop lenovo yoga on SD card? By the way does Hidis plays videos downloaded from youtube?? I mean is there needed some convert
@@Currawong My laptop detects hidiz player as device D:(as storage, when SD card is in Hidiz and without SD card it says insert disc), I can copy something from my laptop to the disc D, but its not in player when I check, its only the SD card. But I need to get to player
The file needs to be an MP3, or FLAC (or or another standard music file). I don't anything about RUclips music.
@@Currawong But when I download some video I have on my laptop (downloaded from youtube) and transfer it to HIdiz player I dont see nothing there, it scans and its empty.
limited to 20000 tracks no matter how much free storage you have...
Thanks for the heads-up. I've never gotten anywhere near that number of tracks on a DAP in my life, but I know some people like to take their entire library with them.
@@Currawong I only found out cos I looked Amazon about the dap and was curious. It's not clearly advertised as far as I could see. It still represents fantastic value for money though imho.
same as hiby r3
@@aqwandrew6330 ah OK. I'm not familiar with either product to any real extent. Just was curious. Thanks for the heads up.
the 20K track limit is only for the database. if you navigate by folder you can use infinite tracks. so group all your music into genre folders yourself
Don’t buy it!! Bluetooth sucks with iPhone, hidisz cable to connect to iPhone doesn’t work which they know but keep selling it anyways. On/of volume wheel lasted 4 months, not possible to turn it on anymore. Don’t waste your money on this!!!
This will not work on iPhone as a dac as it draws too much power. It does work on the iPad though.
This company just ignores you if you have a problem.
Also what not said in the reviews is that you need to buy and use their proprietary cables for it to work.
And the cables supplied are way too short to be practical.
Would not buy anything from this company again.
You copy and paste this at the bottom of every video on You Tube?
