FiiO M33 R2R Review

The chassis is made of solid aluminum alloy, sandwiched between a 5.5-inch full-HD touchscreen and a tempered glass back, printed with logos and text. I like the lines on both the left and the right side. The corners and edges are subtly chamfered, making for a refined feel.

My review sample came in black, but the M33 R2R is also available in blue and titanium gold. The finish appears to be anodized.

The M33 R2R is a mid-sized DAP with dimensions of approximately. 138.2 x 71.5 x 17 mm, and moderate in weight, approximately 258g.

In my opinion, it hits the sweet spot for Android-based DAPs: neither too small, too big, nor too heavy to bring along on long trips. The size allows for a screen that makes controlling the Android operating system easy.

The M33 R2R 5.5-inch touch screen has excellent brightness, color, contrast, and viewing angles. The color accuracy and refresh rate are good.

I estimate the screen refresh rate is 60 Hz, but I would love a 120 Hz refresh rate like on my phones; however, 60 Hz is acceptable and the current norm for Android DAPs
