With how smart phones are built nowadays, you would say that this would be the case. Kaso, these are dedicated music players, which have better sound cards and can maximize loseless audio. Pair it with audiophile headphones at para kang nakikinig live nung ni record ang music na pinakikingan mo. Let’s not hate on the product, kasi may specific target sila which are audiophiles and not ordinary consumers like you.
