DAPs generally have very poor battery life, with the exception of Sony ones, a mediocre UI/software/user experience (sluggish, unresponsive) and they barely sound better than a phone, if any better at all. The Android ones are all running on older versions of Android, not the latest of Android 14.
In terms of value you can get an LG phone that is cheaper than a DAP but has superior UI/software/user experience and battery life. My Samsung Note 9 does a pretty good job for music playback but is lacking in power/volume. I've ordered an LG V60 for test/comparison as I was curious. I might get the Fiio M23/iBasso DX260/DX320/Sony NW-WM1AM2 (Japanese uncapped) because I am curious as to whether they sound any better/noticeably better. I once tried a modded Hiby RS6 (£1400) and there was hardly any/barely detectable difference between it and my Hiby R5 Gen2.
In the coming weeks I'll be selling the Hiby R6 Pro II and the Hiby R5 Gen2
