@@Kartoshka177 It is something to do with the SoC being the Exynos 7872, so that's effectively the main engine of the M15. You can download the Apple Music app from the Playstore, but you can never log into it. When you submit your user credentials, it just loops back to the log in screen. I don't really know what the issue is, but I'm guessing it has something to do with cryptography / security used by Apple accounts that is not supported on this SoC.

Iirc the official apple dongle is has a very good DAC and is better than the iPhone 6 built in?

[@jar3datkinz]

Man, I’d love to see a studio tour!!

i have watched every one of your videos atleast 8 times now, they're always the highlight at the end of my week, thank you for the amazing content you provide to the platform

[@Astronimus123]

This man made me a snob for high end audio when all I have is a gaming headset

[@quartzofcourse]

Man I wish I had your audio setup

[@sennecox]

Man, I recently came across your channel and binge watched a lot of your videos! I love that you're so humourous and still provide a useful insight about the tech. You deserve way more subs!!🙏

[@OrganNLou]

LOVE YOUR HUMOR!!!! I just bought one, CAN'T WAIT TO HEAR IT!!!

[@kevinkris]

This is so enjoyable to watch, can't belive that more people won't watch videos about dank pods.

[@Chillysky-ch9mp]

It’s a very good day when dank pods posts!!

[@MaximNightFury]

I love how even you're up to date on Exynos crappiness

[@hamish3999]

Finally more content, I have been craving this for a very long time. My yearning for aussie-accented tech garble has gone on long enough. I shall indulge in the best 20 minutes of the week. Thank you, Dankus Podsian.

[@SylveonPlays316]

I just bought a modded 5th gen iPod, thanks for getting back into iPods, mate!

[@danosbon9063]

Jesus, now I want one. Great job Fido! I’ve never really had a DAC (outside of the one built into my mono) but this lil guy as me drooling.

[@williamwells5915]

Damn you Dank, since I've found your channel, I've bought those TaoTronics earbuds you tested, i drink Tooheys by the litre (not really, can't find it in the States), and I'm looking at old iPod's to buy. (Shakes fist towards the ground, in anger!)

[@floof5359]

"oh this is sweet should do great with my 6xx's" *checks price, at 1,299.99 american shillings** "nevermind"

[@NEEDbacon]

Gotta pay to play.

[@arnox4554]

There is one thing though that I could argue in favor of this. You buy this, you'll be set for life for pretty much anything audio related.

[@helloworldstein]

@@arnox4554 My only worry would be that FIIO seems to have used really cheap eMMC on this and those things wear out really quick. Wouldnt be surprised if the internal memory on this thing gives out relatively quickly. Happens with cheaper phones and laptops all the time.

[@aquos_fox]

Eh... I'll stick to my 200€ Walkman

[@Hansengineering]

@@arnox4554 Five years, tops. There's way too much software in there that while it COULD be kept up with evolving standards, it won't be.

[@whatever63644]

I genuinely come to you for audiophile content and oh boy I'm loving it. Keep up the content m8

[@piromansadran]

I like how passionate you sound, it shows that even if the videos arent the best quality they are still good. LIKE I MEAN even though i dont understand shit when it comes to music stuff i still find your vids entertaining, which for me means that the videos are good

[@smelvin7]

[@targetbuddy5]

Oh man, I love the DT 770s, they're a phenomenal bang for the buck.

[@norftrain]

Mr. Dank, I love your channel, thanks to you I'm now the proud owner of my first two iPods, a first and second-gen na no. Now for the bat-trees... UUUUUGGgghhhh...

[@spartanretro]

I have three different Nanos- the teeny tiny one with no actual controls, a 6th gen, and a 7th gen

[@norftrain]

My Nanos quit on me a while back, never plugging them in again... They have since been replaced by a 4th-Gen Classic, so it's all good.

[@jamiegilis3657]

“You could plug them into your mums shuffle” my mum actually has that 😂

[@UNSCPILOT]

I still have the 1gig shuffle, the silver version of that and it still works XD. Course, it's been retired by a Fiio m3k now so it doesn't get used... at all anymore...

[@Sofspot1]

Ngl, I just use Wired apple earbuds bc they're affordable and sound good enough for me. But hearing you talk about things you're Passionate about is wonderful. I'm so happy you decided to make a channel, you're in my top 5

[@callumharris3798]

James marriot uses huh duh six hundos as his PC headset and it really seems like using a 500kg hammer and 9 inch nails to put up a picture frame

[@noahpaulette1490]

When a 12oz hammer and some finishing nails would be sufficient kek.

0:10 now i can die happy knowing that melty blood somehow appeared in a dankpods video

[@mfultimate]

I'm not even an audiophile but I've never wanted something more

[@orlandoarroyo7278]

Y'know, another tech channel called Shortcircuit reviewed it a 3 weeks back. and called it a BASIC IPOD. Truly an insult. Nice video btw.

[@bilalrasool1]

I recently bought real high quality AKG headphones because of this channel that were at a really good price, but then needed an amp for it. So I spent a total of 3 hours over a week looking for an amp, I looked at all models on Amazon, I looked at amps on the manufacturer's site (I almost got a fiiO because how simple and good their stuff is). But I basically learned everything I needed to about amps, so me being me, I bought the cheapest one that could do what I needed. Also you should talk about watts as well, the AKG were only 60 ohm, but that's 60 ohms at 0.2 watts, no affordable amp could deliver that. Even ones that went to 200 ohms, their watt output was low.

Haha him trying to figure out how Android UI worked reminds me of when my friend let me use his iPhone for a bit.. I couldn't even figure out how notifications worked at first..
