- FIIO M21 HI-RID Audio Player Price £ 279 / $ 329 (about AU 583)
- Quad-DEC Configure and two stages increase
- Desktop mode for hi -fi system’s LOPTIM improved output
The FIIO has been guaranteed to get our attention to the arrival of a new cheap audio player: When we reviewed the JM11 portable music player, we were blown up for its voice and its price. And now is a new player who is more powerful without being more expensive.
While JM11 is a dual DAC device, the new FIOM is the 21 quad DAC player. And double DACS does not mean double: where the JM21 is launched in $ 199 / £ 179, the M21 is $ 329 / £ 279.

M21 is a sleek visible thing with a large IPS touch screen of 4.7 inches in the front, the glass waist, and the octa core Snapdragon 680 inside it. This device operates Android 13 and comes with 4GB of RAM, 64GB internal storage with 52GB of use is available, and you can add up to 2TB via microSD. Bluetooth is 5.0 (SBC, AAC, APTX, Optics HD, LDAC And Lhdc).

The DAC has four serous logic CS4319s that arranges to minimize the crossistic and noise. The two -phase enhancement provides the first and current to the voltage, which says FIIO says a clean and dynamic sound profile creates a profile.
A key new feature is M21, the first for FIIO entry level Androids. It enables you to connect the USB-C supply and ignore the battery, which is transmitted to 21VPP peak voltage and 950MW per channel to 32 ohm. The desktop mode also enables you to use M21 as a high razor stream for a wider high -fi system.
The battery life in portable mode is 15 hours compared to 3.5 mm output and a balanced 4.4 mm output with 11.5 hours. And there is an optional retro case that looks like a cassette tape-this is a large metal color box that is sitting in the main image of M21.
There is no doubt that it looks amazing – and I suspect it will be better than JM -21 more than the maximum, when you give things too much crank, it becomes a bit embarrassed. And M21 at £ 279 / $ 329 still reduces many rivals high-residues audio devices-at least FIIO’s own M23, not another player we like.
Between this and the fake costume cos, I think Five has come here with a winning formula. The player is now available.
