Feiao, as an old audio factory in China, needs to make flexible changes to ensure the activity of the brand in the face of new brands that are constantly pouring into the audio circle. Just as the Fei Sheng EA3 (Fei Aozi Brand), which was started for my brother a while ago, is a cost-effective new brand product line facing more young consumer groups. It has to be said that the domestic audio market seems to be a small group, but the undercurrent is surging.

in fact, there have been too many new audio products in the past two years. Bluetooth earphones, real wireless earphones, multi-unit earphones, Bluetooth earphones, portable earphones, and players of different grades are all blooming. It is definitely not easy to win the first place. I started with Feiao M11, the main character of this article, at the end of 2019 in the lunar calendar. Since its entry into Japan, it has achieved obvious results. At present, it has achieved good performance in the price range of 3,000 stalls (the first place in kaku DAP is iBasso DX220, which is priced at 6k). I have to say that the current "national brick" has gradually broken away from the old impression of "old, more attention has been paid to design aesthetics and materials and workmanship.

M11 is the first high-end HiFi player in Feiao M series. It is unique among many players with its full body technology and outstanding 5.15-inch full-screen appearance. The flagship Exynos 7872 master dual-AK4493EQ DAC chip configuration enables users to feel extremely smooth operation experience, and has three interfaces of 4.4 balance/2.5 balance/3.5 single-ended, which provides more ways to play.

M Series

the X series led by the old flagship X72 slowly faded out of the market, the M series gradually became the backbone.

I have to say that the M series is becoming more and more mature and stable, and the packaging design follows the simplicity of the X series, but the deep background blessing two small gold labels and VGP gold medals show their outstanding product strength both inside and outside. Stepping on the selling price within 3,000 yuan, it is not difficult to see that M11 is the top soldier of Feiao's real M series. At the same time, the tide of full screens on smart phones has also blown into the player market, and M11 has also become the cheapest full-screen high-end player product that Feiao can buy at present.

bucket machine that can "live a good life"

found that there was no surprise in accessories. They were basically ancestral sets. At the protection level, the front of the screen has been pasted with a film, and the clear water sleeve has been directly "upper body", which belongs to the standard of ready-to-use. The clear water sleeve is tight, slightly higher than the plane of the screen, and the horizontal grip does not stop the hand (the four corners are slightly pointed). Compared with the previous X53, the texture of the clean water jacket is definitely weaker, but its good toughness and wrapping are better than those of the X53 leather jacket. However, Feiao also has a separate leather case for sale (price 99, model SK-M11). Since the bottom is still not protected, the choice between leather case and clean water case lies in the balance between texture and safety.

does not have one of the short boards-configuration

M11 master uses Samsung Exynos 7872, which has the same performance as Qualcomm Xiaolong 625. The 14nm process will perform better in terms of power consumption. Although it is currently at the level of a thousand yuan in the mobile phone circle, it is enough to Hold as a more professional and dedicated music player. Coupled with the configuration of 3GB RAM and 32G ROM, to be honest, it is still easy to face multiple applications as an Android device alone. The AK4493EQ of the two DAC chips is the hardware foundation that professional players should have. (compared with AK4497EQ * 2 used by M11Pro, AK4499E Q * 2 used by M15)

No Short Board II-Design

M11 comes down in one continuous line with its hale and hearty style, one can see that it was designed by Feiao. The front and rear double glass and the back plate PET coating have improved the overall grade of the machine a lot. The 5.15-inch large screen on the front is used as a facade, and the ratio of 18:9 is very high. The visual experience is really much higher than that of a player with a small screen. The resolution is 1440 × 720 pixels per inch 312ppi plus the operation that supports 10-point touch, which is good with the hand feeling, and there is no feeling that large screen and low matching are easy to jam.

-expansion

M11 uses an open Android 7.0 system, and the experience is no different from ordinary Android devices (except for no speakers), but M11 has surpassed the size and weight of X72, which is obviously not suitable for playing with it all the time. The layout of the key interface is basically the same as that of X53. Double hidden card holder, 2.5 balance/3.5 single-ended/4.4 balance earphone output interfaces are all available, supporting coaxial output decoding and AirPlay retention. In addition, the larger and heavier M11 is obviously not suitable for one-handed operation, so the overhead power button becomes a place to adapt.

At the same time, M11 has also joined the Hi-Res Audio Wireless small gold standard certification in order to meet the needs of the mass market,

supports Bluetooth 4.2 protocol and LDAC two-way Bluetooth. Like M5, it can realize very easy-to-use and practical Bluetooth transceiver and high-definition Bluetooth coding.

Why upgrade to M11

The reason why everyone says M11 "bucket" is because there is no obvious short board, there is everything, and it is worthy of the price-this is why it becomes a "bucket.

, let me tell you why I upgraded M11 this time. X53 is a product of three years ago (at the end of 2016), but in fact the product upgrade will grow grass with the change of usage demand. The X53 main control chip is low, Android is 5.1, and the storage is only 1G. Although the feeling of the card is not as strong as that of the mobile phone, it is inevitable that the card needs to be upgraded gradually.

facts have proved that it is a very wise choice for me to directly upgrade to M11 across X7. High screen ratio screen, resolution upgrade, dual-band WiFi, support for 4.4 balance and universal Tpye-C port are actually my upgrade requirements. The larger body also increased the M11 by 400mAh while improving its endurance performance by nearly three hours. The disadvantage of not being able to operate with one hand is realized by double-clicking the wake-up screen, which is obviously more convenient for daily use.

need to spit out is that the X53 standard leather case needs to be purchased separately when it arrives at M11. However, I also observed the users on the post bar. Those with clear water case want leather case and those with leather case want clear water case, which is really tangled.

, it should be mentioned here that the screen color effect of M11 is redder than that of X53 and colder than that of iPhone. The real picture is not as obvious as the color temperature difference than the real human senses, but M11 intends to adjust the brightness and sharpness. This style should be as much as possible to give users the first eye-catching feeling, which is the same as Samsung used strong to impress some consumers a long time ago.

sound is well-known and remarkable.

, I have to say that the 7872 CPU 3G RAM is really fragrant. It is still 7.0 used in the era of Android 9.0. It is undoubtedly to weaken the concept of Android system for player products, but to maintain a certain high compatibility of Android. Sound quality can only be discussed under the premise of good hardware, which is why there are more and more earphone manufacturers, but there are actually fewer and fewer players.

is the bottom noise. First, under the six-unit BGVP DM7, M11 is very pure. I can hardly believe that this is still the performance after M11 upgraded the wireless module. We should know that wireless has a great influence on the bottom noise. So one of the big reasons for upgrading high-end players is here. By the way, I basically listened to the 2.5 balance port in the two weeks after I finished shooting the picture. Compared with 3.5mm, the M11 can reach 550mW output power under 32 ohms load, which is really a bit tough.

for a heavy balance stopper like the gray oriole, the upper hand "bucket" M11 is just right. In fact, pure moving iron is good, and the ring iron plug actually needs to pay more attention to the front end. M11 can basically push the high quality of the bird plug to a position of appropriate benefits. Compared with the degree of separation, the resolution is more than one and a half points higher than the previous X53 and M5. The high frequency does sound a bit "stinging", but it is not "harsh". The high-frequency M11 with high resolution of the bird plug is in place. The low frequency has also become interesting. M11 can give full play to the advantages of gray bird's low frequency diving and good elasticity, and the low frequency quantity is much relieved.

In addition, the M11 gameplay is still endless. In addition to the upgraded car mode, there is also a USB DAC. To tell the truth, I personally think that using M11 does not need to add "little tail", just listen to it. However, this USB DAC needs to be connected, which is more troublesome than the wireless mode operation of the car. However, for those who love good music and do not want to buy more equipment, this is not a matter. It is king to make the best use of everything. M11 provides a wealth of menus to choose from. Users can switch freely in PC interconnection, APP streaming media and local lossless music files to easily enjoy a good music time.

overall evaluation

M11 belongs to the level that can be attacked and defended. If it is not enough, there are still two big brothers waiting. But for me now, the performance of double AK4490EQ is already very good. There is no difference in appearance between M11 and M11Pro. In the big screen era of Yan Value Online, it catches the user's psychology well. M11, as the "first brick" of the new era of Feiao high-end player, retains the high quality and high compatibility performance of steady progress. I believe this will be a good start. Even now, 2020, the feeling M11 gives me is still obvious.

, it is suggested that all students who start with M11 must go to the balance port, and the listening surprise is far greater than that of single port. If you have a balance plug, you can find a place to try M11. Playability will be greatly improved, and the sense of hearing can also be sublimated.
