SebfrahifiReviewer justifies the laggy, poorly implemented UI with comment(s) to the effect of "it's only $400, you get what you pay for"; blatantly ignoring the fact there are dozens of DAP's at a fraction of the cost that are absent lag and have improved UI functionality and features. Since when did simple navigation hinge on the cost... I backed this drop because if AR does fix the ongoing issues, it's a phenomenal deal, but the fact is: AR hasn't released a patch for this thing since August.

rapoonI was about to join the previous drop of this dap but.... unfortunately searching a bit on the official AR site found out that even when using the latest FW Update lots of issues occures during the playback.. Knowing that this is a fact I finally got Colorfly C20 but still interested on M200... Any news when AR will fix those issues??

alexandrosBe glad you didn't join. I received mine and no matter what format I attempted to play, the player would freeze within 10 minutes. Massdrop was kind enough to allow me to return it. I haven't heard anything regarding when/if AR will update their player(s) firmware; they're not communicative on headfi, and after my abominable experience with this player, I'll never purchase another product they manufacture.
