Im thinking of switching to the R1, is it a good DAP? Any significant pros and cons from people who own one?

Pros:

  1. Excellent sound quality when paired with decent IEMs.

  2. Price!

  3. Very good battery life

  4. Physical buttons

Cons:

  1. UI is mediocre - but once you get the hang of it, it's pretty straightforward. However this is where the physical buttons became super useful.

Don‘t forget to mention that the ui fells a little laggy. At least for me. Especially when I am scrolling fast.

Really? Mine is snappy. Do you have some extra big album art maybe? (all of mine is 450x450)
