X5 3rd gen Android-Based, Mastering Quality. Lossless Playback Portable Music Player Doubling Down on Sound Quality Dual DACs for a Silky Smooth Sound The X5 3rd gen is equipped with two top of teh line AKM AK4490EN DACs, one for each channel. The AK4490EN is a part of a new generation of high-quality 32-bit DACs that supports all PCM and DSD formats. By using a dual-channel implementation of AKM's unique VELVET SOUND low-distortion architecture that includes digital filtering with 32-bit processing the DAC chips in the X5 3rd gen have the ability to finely and exactly reproduce your music. Dual Crystal Oscillators for Faithfully Reproduced Music The X5 3rd gen utilizes two separate crystal oscillators - one for the DSD/44.188.8/176.4/352.8 khz sampling rates and the other for 48/96/192/384 khz. This ensures that under all sampling rates, there is significantly reduced jitter, improved clock accuracy, more stable operation and virtually no sampling rate conversion artifacts. Four-Way LPF for First-Rate Amplification: The X5 3rd gen utilized two dual-channel OPA1642 chips for its low-pas filtering stage and a custom-made audiophile-grade OPA426 chip for amplification, providing greater power output (up to 300mW under a 32 load) and greater ability to deal with capacitive loads. The outstanding sound quality of final audio architecture employed in the x5 3rd gen is the result of closed beta users working tirelessly together with the team at FiiO in a quest to make this new X5 sound the best that it can. Dual Headphone Outputs for Double Fun The X5 3rd gen has tow headphone outputs - one single-ended, and the other balanced. This allows the new X5 tp cater to fans of either headphone output type. Deeply Customized Android 5.1 OS for Efficient Music Playback Ti Circumvent the problem of third-party Android apps automatically converting the sample rate of music, Fiio's software team wrote an entire new audio software architecture for its deeply customized and optimized version of the Android 5.1 OS. This results in improved sound quality and better overall performance of the device, and also gives 90 more minutes of battery life compared to running under Android 4.4. Two Operation Modes for More Enjoyment The X5 3rd gen, following in the footsteps of Fiio's flagship DAP, also offers two modes of operation - Pure Music mode and Android mode. In Pure Music Mode, only the main music player is available - no other apps run for smoother operation and a purer sound. In Android mode, users ar free to install and run any third-party Android apps according to their needs. By offering these two modes of operation, the X5 3rd gen can satisfy both the music purists and those who need more versatility. Wi-Fi and Bluetooth (aptx) for a Connected Era The X5 3rd gen brings a number of new features for a convenient wireless experience - 2.4 Ghz Wi-Fi allows users to listen to their favorite online streaming services; and DLNA is supported for even more forms of wireless connectivity. With the X5 3rd gen, you can play your music anytime, anywhere. All-New Thoroughly Reworked User Interface The X5 3rd gen has al all new UI that has been thoroughly and carefully changed from past effort down to the last pixel - for example, many of the icons have been redisigned, such as the ones for EQ settin and system settings. The new UI has a black thee with splashes of thoghtfully-placed bold colors for a clean, modern presentation. Concealed micro SD Card Design In order to make a more seamless-looking and durable chassis, the X5 3rd gen design team needed to rethink the design of the micro SD card slot.

Dual micro SD Card Slots The X5 3rd gen contains both 32GB of built-in storage and two external micro SD card slots. Since each micro SD card slot supports up to 256GB cards, the X5 3rd gen is able t carry up to a whopping 544GB of music - enough to store up to 130, 000 songs. Side-facing Volume Knobe New to the X5 3rd is a physical volume knob, which is slightly recessed within a gaurd so as to prevent accidental volume changes but is still easy to manipulate. The volume knob contains several of Fiio's characteristic design traits, such as the 45 grooves on the volume knob as well as the rigid lines and smooth circular elements which complement each other for a striking and uniqued look. 2 Modes of Charging to Quickly Get Back UP and Running The X5 3rd gen contains a 3.8V 3400mAh battery that provides more than 10 hours of playing time. But when you do run out of battery, the new X5 has new rapid charging technology wit temperature detection (with an on-screen indicator) that not only supports the typical BC 1.2 USB charging specification but also supports 9v/12V high-voltage rapid charging. When charged at the maximum current rate of 1.2 C, the X5'a battery can be filled in a mere 1.5 hours. Meticulosly Detailed, Inside and Out The upgrade in the feel and grip of the X5 3rd gen's body over the previus X5 is immediately apparent. In order to achieve a smoother finish, the front panel features a suble dot matrix pattern, while the rear and gold color paints perfectly harmonize with each other to give the X5 3rd gen an understated yet luxurious appearance.
