Unfortunately, the forthcoming XBox One X is not a full 4k product. It's a half way house until something better comes along. For gaming XBox One X looks great, but for media it's in the dark ages before it has been launched. There will be NO 4K passthrough on the One X, which means that...

I never use any insider builds either on the fast or slow rings, I prefer to only update to stable. That said, my current build is .29 and its been that way for some time. Unsure as to whether I am not picking up an update? Whats the latest build for non insiders?

Audioengine D3.. as per discussion further up in the thread. Works fine for me, but does drain power. About 7hrs from 100% to off.

I am still on .29 firmware and the battery is just getting better and better with time, i am about a couple of months into ownership now. Thats about 41 hrs (it's now 1:42AM on Saturday morning in the UK, with my last charge at 8:45AM on Thrusday morning) and still over 30%. I am a moderate...

Strnage - I dont get any volume drop off at all. In fact, very slightly louder to my ears via the DAC. Which app(s) were you using? I wonder if the usb-c to usb-a adapter can make a difference? I wouldn't have thought so, but there are so many potential variables within the 'chain'. There...

How long have you had it ? My battery seems to be getting better and better, just over a month in now. My last charge was at 7:30pm yesterday, some 21hrs ago and I am currently on 46% battery life left - that is with a fair bit of podcast listening and calls and bit of browsing, plus 3 app...

You dont have to turn everything off. I have all the important background apps running and get decent battery life. It's about the same as my previous phone , an iphone 6 (and of course an iphone 6 has no concept of things like live tiles) Coming here and stating 'W10 is a fail!' makes you...

On light usage , yes I am getting 36 hrs.

Yep - that one has very good reviews. If it doesnt work you can always send it back!

How often do you sync you emails? I have mine set to every hr, but think the default is 'based on usage'.

Some music creation, yes, but very much hobby based. In terms of the battery drain using the DAC, it is working out at 14% per hour, so c7hrs of music plating through the DAC on a full charge.

I have had my phone for nearly a month now. My current battery life is about 30hrs on a full charge (still running .29) - a few calls each day - its used for business - web browsing in the morning for 30 minutes or so with sporadic browsing daily. - hourly checks of Tweetium - about 2hrs...

Hi - my PC is currently running off the motherboard integrated sound. So when I say high end, I mean high end of a motherboard (!). Mobo is an X99 Extreme which uses the Crsytal Sound 2. I am moving to a Presonus sudio interface and powered speakers (KRKs), so the DAC I bought is mainly for...

The DAC is the one in the link in an earlier post - Audioengine D3. Here again : Audioengine D3 Premium 24 Bit Digital Anaolgue Convertor (DAC) USB Audio Amplifier: Amazon.co.uk: TV The adapter is this one: TROND? AC6 USB Type C Cable Adapter , For Apple MacBook: Amazon.co.uk: Electronics...

Here is the pic The two lights on the DAC represent power and also that music is playing @24bit, 96khz.. The latter surprised me a little as wasn't sure the 950 would stream at that level (music in the pic is coming from Groove - it might be the DAC upscaling I guess?). I went for the...
