HiBy R6
Made by Hong Kong based HiBy Music, the HiBy R6 is an Android-based audio player that is powered by a Qualcomm Snapdragon 425 SoC with 3G RAM, and a Quad-core 64-bit Cortex A53 processor. It runs on Android 6.0.1 with custom direct transport audio architecture so you can get bit-perfect non-resampled output from your music player app (save what the app itself applies).
It comes with 32GB of internal storage, and supports microSD cards up 2TB in size. That’s a good amount of storage, and we like that HiBy has chosen to use a sim-card like slot to store the microSD rather than the spring-loaded one, as you don’t bear the risk of your microSD card flying across the room when you’re trying to eject it.
The HiBy R6 comes with a 4,000mAh internal battery that is said to give up to 12 hours of playback time using the single-ended output, or 7 hours if you’re using the balanced output.
There’s also a type-C USB 2.0 port for both transfer and charging. This features QC3.0 quick charge capabilities, so you can get a full charge in about 140 minutes, and 70% charge in about 70 minutes.
