I don't use Spotify. Good it came as more choices.

For the moment I use Apple Music and Tidal.

The Google Play Music now only radio and totally free. Sound quality is so so la. It do sound like radio... I want it able to purchase album and better quality.

You can try for one month free. After a month just decide continue subscription or not.

They is two subscription, normal or HiFi. Both type can try for free one month.

Wait ... I know what you mean, no free stream quota for it from Umobile. Haha!

It is user preferable.

The only 3 common brand I not suggest is Oppo, Vivo and Asus.

Oppo always over price with middle range spec.
Vivo is much cheaper and sometimes even came with better spec but the build quality is not the same level as Oppo. Even though both from same father.

Asus too many bloatware. Asus no need recommended already a lot people reject it now because it do famous once and that famous make people though Asus phone battery very bad thanks to Intel power hunger and bad power management. Intel out from mobile market is a great choice.

HTC? Sorry to said HTC already dead after HTC M8.

Sony is good but not great. I never recommended and never ask people ignore also. Those love Sony still can consider it as it still a decent phone.

I highly recommended user get Samsung, iPhone & Huawei for flagship phone.

For middle range, Mi is the well recommended brand. Honor also not bad.

Yup. I already subscribe to it. ☺

Tidal HIFI is lossless quality, totally uncompressed like Audio CD.

Battery consumption I had no idea, I never bother check battery, as long the phone last long me a day it is very fine already.

I can tell the differences in between of them.

I can even tell the Spotify lossy quality is worst than Apple Music quality. That the reason I don't choose Spotify because it sound bad, it got some weird shaking sound output.

Since got such compression format sound, I already cannot accept Ogg Vorbis format because of that shacking sound output and Spotify is using it.

That AKG you can throw aside, it sound very bad. Tune by AKG, hmm...

I dunno AKG this brand and I only know it because of S8/S8+, AKG sound to me not a very great quality already because AKG can tune out such bad quality headset.

Xiaomi headset is a brand that cheap but not means output is cheap. It is a very decent headset, off course it is not the best but great enough for most user.

Also that UHQ+ turn on not necessary sound better. The Adapt sound is good additional add-on.

But I actually do turn on the Tube Amp Pro, I find this added more smooth bass and vocal. I very like it. Still I find it is not good enough. I really want to know LG G6 sound are. I know Mi itself very well done to it own headset when plugin to Mi phone itself.

It depends on the aspect ratio of the video. Not all will auto full screen but certain match ratio only.

Probably because it is only half baked. Haha!

But half baked only.

The FAKE S8 color is so nice!
It is nearly 90% looks like already, just they can't have rounded corner screen yet.

First not much people root already, secondly it is well know already at XDA only Exynos edition can root as the Snapdragon edition is still locked for the moment.

Yup, big credit to those doing clone phone. It needs some work, knowledge to cheating on it.

Very fun watching it actually, haha! and for that price, it actually not bad.

Pretty sure much better version will out soon. Who knows they can make the infinity display later. Haha!

I think since S6, Samsung always did better for it own Exynos version.

Haha! but Snapdragon is target for US market, dunno what their thinking of, maybe they want to find a great reason to ditch the Snapdragon one day.

After few days testing, I think I am set to below setting.
It is not perfect but closed to the best I can get.

I find it smoother to me, even though it sound lower than actual but you can tune up the volume a bit and it will sound very nice.


It emulate the sound output of those tube system.
