The name of Zhuhai Spartak may not be known to friends. Now they are more familiar with their digital player brand, Cayin Cayin, who has attracted a lot of music enthusiasts after entering the market through solid N2 and N5 non-touch media players. . Cayin earlier this year decided to launch the first Android-based DAP and touch screen i5, located at 3000 levels. I said the competition because of i5 has many excellent features and good quality, and another slot full of domestic Android player fiio x7
In line with the development of Hi-Res audio, it is built on an Android 4.4 platform. It is actually designed in the same way as Fiio's x7 by Hippymus and vendors. It is now a hipymusic app on Android and iOS. It supports Android platform audio player, although it is a good player, but Haibei music is not very perfect, especially Android platform compatibility and stability, but x7 left me with a very bad impression, and mediocre Compared to the odd fiio's x7, what's remarkable about it? I5 is also located as a network DAP. Wireless integration through hiby music became possible, i5 able to stream and play remote files on your LAN or WLAN as well as services that support dlna, such as Baidu cloud disk (although it cannot be shared).
    The packaging does not have features, not on the map, inside the following packaging accessories:
Type C USB cable, Type C micro USB adapter, 3 x screen saver (with one pre-installed)
Quick User Guide Warranty Cards and Certificates.

Support dlna play, network streaming media is one of the characteristics.
Workmanship is the appearance of a more conservative, more prominent is the volume knob that the big knob, the rest of the button distribution, compared to fiio x7 is still more reasonable, personal prefer this steady shape, workmanship is Kai sound, key design, reflect The skills of established vendors. The volume control is very special, but the damping is too good and the amplitude is a bit large. The body material is made of CNC aviation aluminum chassis and carbon fiber backplanes. The N6 and N5 backplanes have the same backplane design. Weight 196 grams and 14mm thick, a little heavy on the hand, usb-c instead of micro USB connection and spdif output function. It just felt that the transmission speed did not improve. The memory capacity is 32g, and the memory slot is located at the bottom of the right panel, supporting a maximum of 200GB microSD card. OTG link large capacity hard disk can be provided. The real test, linking the computer's usb interface, copying music is very slow, 10g music takes half an hour, and the speed is appalling. The i5 uses a 4-inch TFT IPS capacitive touch display with a resolution of 800 x 480 pixels. The color saturation is good and the screen feels normal. Like the X7's screen, it is only an acceptable level. I5 uses 4800mAh 3.8v polymer lithium-ion battery, about 10-11 hours of battery life, in daily use scenarios, standby can be two to three days, I use down, may play dsd status in high gain, can only play 6 hours or so. Charge for nearly 4.5 hours.
Screen performance, viewing angle can also
The CPU is a quad-core Cortex A-7 processor, dual-core GPU and ARM 9 PMU, of course, quite well-known 32-bit AKM ak4490eq single DAC chip. If these sound familiar, this is because the decoding capabilities of the N5's AK4490's DAC are somewhat similar to the real ones. Native DSD support is impressive, DST encoding SACD, FLAC, ALAC, AIFF, M4A, WAV, WMA, WMA lossless, OGG MP3 and AAC
Cayin chose to focus on audio playback experience and reasonable distribution of music management, especially the playback interface and media management, reasonable and direct buttons, much better than the x7, such as the most important selection of the left and right buttons are not Will be very difficult to press like fiio, speed response in general, there is not much delay, boot time is a bit slow. And it seems that i5 has a warm-up process, although it has little effect on the playback sound.
The music library scan is very fast and the same 16g tf card is half the time faster than x7. The ability to browse all media is still through the traditional category of albums, artists, genres, tracks with previously used folder explore options (now home screen), instead of putting them on a single interface, this UI worker than x7 Still easier to use and reasonable.
The long list is also conveniently divided into two categories represented by two click menu options on the category; music list. Use the list option to add classes to favorites, files that are frequently and recently created, and playlists, or to your drive. It is still smooth when sliding, but not fast enough. You can enter the music settings by swiping left to the hiby music menu and from there you can choose to adjust the eq series of 9 presets or shuang your own custom presets or enter the music settings themselves for further adjustments. In the music settings, you can adjust the gain, either high or low, familiar with the digital filter options from N5, DSD gain compensation, SPDIF output conversion and default settings, no gaps and lyrics display.
Although the positioning is mid-range, its sound performance does not lose the same brand of machines. In contrast, the po output is relatively warm, but lacks a little cohesion. The large-scale music restoration is broken, but the details are somewhat hesitant to locate. Lo performance is even better, linked desktop amp with hd600, the details of the outstanding portrayal. In audition performance, folk acoustic guitar, vocal music and popular songs, compared with my favorite ZX1, it tends to be more precise and detailed in detail, especially lo is more resistant to hearing. Treble performance is more forward than ZX1 sounds vocal. It's just that I like the sound of i5, but it's just loose and it's a little heavier than the ZX1's tuning. It also works with Seashell music. Compared with fiio x7, I prefer cayin's tuning. Please allow the qualified students to listen to the two. If there is no comparison, there will be no harm. . . .
Can say about 3,000 yuan, this may be the best domestic Android player on the market. Relatively fiio X7 who is worth buying is self-evident, in addition to the transmission speed and slightly heavy point, thrust, resolution, human-machine interface and other are the i5 advantage, and both battery life is not satisfactory. It also sounds good, the sound is smooth, with westone w40 can be a few hours, feel tired tired said in front of lo is very musical taste. The national brick can be said to be very appealing to human ears. What disappeared was a sharp attack, a little more sound coming back, but with increased resolution. A wonderful i5 that supports native DSD sounds. Cayin has done an excellent job. He is not tired of listening, has details, has a good music atmosphere, and has a good combination of software and hardware. It is worthy of affirming that it is the official firmware update of Cayin. They said that system optimization and bug resolution are only possible after these problems are solved. Dare to open the USB DAC function. Lo has performed well and has demonstrated the skills accumulated by the big factories in decades. The disadvantages are battery life and transmission speed, especially the port speed of usb c is so very strange, the shape aspect sees it, and finally spit it down, I especially hope that the color is not such a low-grade copper color, and the other most important aspect is the conference. The network broadcasting function that emphasizes especially has contrasting x7 to have outstanding place, but the application of the actual meaning is not perfect, this one I hope this relatively outstanding product does not stop halfway.
