This is the best player you can buy for under $900
I am very happy with my Hiby R6. The build quality is slightly better than my Astell and Kern Kann. This player is so fast- no lag playing dsd files- my Kann takes a full 4 seconds. I have also owned a Fiio X5iii and a Onkyo Dp-X1A- ( I can't stand the file management system). The Hiby R6 is better than both of those. I am not really an EQ guy, but Mage Sound Eight Ball is pretty amazing. It allows you to adjust the sound more intuitively than an EQ. Nice, quiet background- firm bass, nice highs that don't fatigue your ears and strong, lush, accurate mids. Hiby Music works well as the music app, there has already been 3 software upgrades since I have owned the player- these guys are primarily a software company used by all of the high end manufacturers to solve their code issues. So, you know their software is top notch and well maintained..It comes with front and rear screen protectors, with an extra front one, even. Battery times has been at least 12 hours. My only complaint is the bluetooth could be a little bit better, but still works well. I have a 400gb card in my player and it works very well. I own the stainless steel version- it is beautiful- totally worth the extra money. Also- don't worry about the impedence- I run Noble Kaiser 10 customs and Campfire audio Polaris and Cascades- they sound amazing- large soundstage, upfront with really nice imaging. I totally recommend this player to people looking for a great android player in the $500-900 range.

Excellent Android DAP
My overall impression is that this is an excellent Android DAP for the money. Personally, I like the resolution, detail, and tonality of the Astell&Kern DAPs better. However, the A&K DAPs do not support Tidal offline mode. This is a restriction from Tidal and not A&K. The HiBy R6 allows access to the Google Play store where you can download Tidal - thus Tidal offline support is available. The excellent value for the money plus Tidal offline support is why I decided on this DAP,Pros:Build quality - Very good. I have the stainless steel version. Comfortable to hold and operate with one hand.Performance - Very good. No delays or screen lags. Smooth operation.Battery life - Very good.Sound - Enjoyable. Detailed in all frequencies, full-bodied, dynamic and reasonably punchy with a decent soundstage.Things to note:- Still some software issues to be worked out. On a couple of occasions, two songs started playing via Tidal at the same time. I'm not sure if that was a bug with Tidal or the DAP. The good thing is that the DAP software (and Tidal) receive regular updates.- The output impedance of this DAP is 10ohms, which is interestingly high for a DAP. An impedance that high can change the tonality of low impedance IEMS/earphones/headphones. I purchased the iFi IEMatch dongle to eliminate this issue (works like a charm). Without the IEMatch, the sound coming from the R6 through my headphones sounded too bright/punchy. Again, the IEMatch corrected this and all is good. I can't say this is really an issue with the DAP per se as much as it is an issue with IEM/earphone/headphone design. I asked HiBy why they designed this device with such a high output impedance and they replied 'to protect against device short-circuit'. At any rate, I thought this was worth mentioning. Most DAPs have a very low output impedance so people don't come across this issue.

Best Android Based Music Player
The HiBy R6 music player way surpassed my expectations. Sound is fantastic, controls are convenient and always respond, battery life is good, and the stainless-steel version is a work of art. The only place where there is room for improvement is that I wish it had two micro SD slots like the Onkyo/Pioneer android music player, which I also own, but the HiBy R6 wins in all other areas. It runs a stripped-down android version, but the play store is there and I had no problem putting my favorite android media player on it.

Better than expected
New to the DAP market. This exceeded my expectations. Stainless steel model is heavier than I expected, but not an issue. Had an AK70 MKII but it ran too hot and you could not download Tidal. Returned it for the HiBy. It's been pleasure to use.

Unreliable device
Bought as Bluetooth player in my car, keeps stuttering, plays files for a few seconds and skips to the next where it does the same until the device is restarted. Also will at times not find the SD card. Cannot comment on sound with all this happening ugh.

It's a great sound but needs work "Buggy"
To be fair I think this player has a lot of potential. The UI is fast and snappy nice 8.1 Android, But the firmware is very buggy, it constantly disconnects while trying to transfer music, crashes while playing back, and it seems to make it's own mind up on certain file formats, so many little bugs in the UI. The biggest complaint I had was initially setting up as the inclosed instructions are not clear as in USB charge mode to USB file transfer mode which is another bug it just keeps switching back to charge mode. Luckily I've found a forum where other users have found work rounds to a lot of the problems but the general consensus was that not much support from Hiby, and promised updates have still not addressed problems. I've had this for two days now and when it works the sound quality is surperb but I'm not sure if i can put up with all the nonsense that comes with the unit, so it will probably be returned.

FAULTY ON RECEIPT
Faulty from the word Go. Only partly Booted Up then refused to switch off. After a while it would switch off and then refused to switch back on. this happened on 2 or 3 occasions, at this point I decided to return the item for a refund.I have purchased a number of players over the years from £100 to £800 and have never had any problems before.Amazon refused to offer a replacement for the Faulty player, ??

Guter HighRes-Player, allerdings mit Abzügen in der B-Note.
An sich ein sehr gute HighRes.-Player, allerdings mit kleinen Schwächen.Ich besitze ebenfalls den Fiio M9 u. M11. Diese sind zwar etwas neuer, aber bieten leider keine Google Services. Mir fehlt dort im Endeffekt der Google Play Store. Diesen bringt der Hiby R6 ja mit. Was für mich einen großen Mehrwert darstellt.Nun zu den Pro's:- sehr gute verarbeitungs Qualität.- liegt super in der Hand.- Tasten zur Lautstärkenregulierung. Bei Fiio gibt es da leider ein Scrollrad, welches mir persönlich nicht so zu sagt. Geschmackssache halt.- sehr guter Equalizer. Fehlt leider bei Fiio.- schönes und farbenfrohes Display.- Musik kommt klar und sauber rüber.- Hiby Musik App gleich vorinstalliert. Habe ich aber auch bei den Fiio's genutzt.- Play Store und Google Services integriert.- Android 8.1 vorinstalliert.- regelmäßige Updates, musste etliche installieren nach Erhalt des Hiby R6. Hoffe das bleibt so.- eigentlich rundum ein gutes Produkt.Nun zu den Contra's:- Sicherheitspatch vom Dezember 2017. Das geht Mal gar nicht.- Display reagiert eher schlecht auf Eingaben. Man muss schon ordentlich drauf drücken.- Panzerglasfolie ist mit dabei, bedeckt aber leider nicht den kompletten Screen.- beigelegte Schutzhülle ist ein absoluter Witz. Sitzt absolut ungenau und sieht aus wie ein Sack Sülze. Die Hülle vom R6 Pro ist da wohl besser, wie ich im Netz sehen konnte. Habe mir nun eine Lederhülle eines Drittanbieters besorgt. Die ist wesentlich besser. Dadurch entstehen leider Extrakosten. Für ein Gerät von 699,- € ein absolutes No-Go.- Akkulaufzeit geht soweit in Ordnung. Allerdings schlechter als bei den Fiio Geräten.- Bluetooth Reichweite ist in Ordnung, aber reicht nicht so weit wie bei den Fiio Geräten.- leider musste ich feststellen, das die App Samsung Warable welche ich zum Verbinden meiner Galaxy Buds benötige, nicht vom Hiby R6 unterstützt wird. Ich kann Sie zwar installieren, aber Sie wird immer sofort automatisch beendet. Das ist sehr schade, da ich so leider nicht das volle Potenzial meiner Galaxy Buds ausnutzen kann. Das scheint aber bisher die einzige App zu sein, welche Probleme macht.- Systemstart bei ausgeschaltetem Gerät dauert ebenfalls länger als bei den Fiio Geräten. Ist aber noch OK.- das Verbinden in mein WLan-Netz dauert sehr lange, beim einschalten. Das können die Fiio Geräte besser und wesentlich schneller.Fazit:Kann ich den Hiby R6 weiterempfehlen. Im großen und ganzen ja. Allerdings nicht zu einem Preis von 699,- €. Stainless Steele Version. Ich habe 299,- € bezahlt und das geht auf jeden Fall in Ordnung. Der Hiby R6 ist ein sehr schöner HighRes. Player. Er macht vieles richtig aber auch einiges Falsch. Ich nutze ihn nun seit ca. 2 Wochen und bin zufrieden. Wie schon gesagt, die Google Services und der vorhandene Google Play Store, haben mich bewogen, den Hiby R6 anzuschaffen. Der Klang ist meiner Meinung nach ausgezeichnet. Der vorhandene Equalizer, welcher bei den Fiio Geräten fehlt ist ein Plus. Die mitgelieferte Schutzhülle, ist eine absolute Lachnummer. Keine Ahnung wer da zu viel Bar auf dem Kessel gehabt hat, aber sowas geht bei einem so teuren Produkt Mal gar nicht. Der nicht so komfortabel reagierende Screen, schmälert das Nutzungserlebnis allerdings doch schon merkbar. Ich kann mir nicht erklären, woher es kommt.Daher muss ich leider ein Stern, in der B-Note abziehen. Trotzdem würde ich zum Preis von 299,- € noch eine klare Kaufempfehlung aussprechen.

HIBY R6
Dirò un spettacolare lettore con un suono veramente molto buona , chiara e nitide però ho messo 4 stelle perché il Android che monta con 3 gb di ram ogni volta si ferma e non risponde insomma , la consegna sempre a la ora giusta , grazie amazon .
