Can put 2 64GB MicroSD Card......................

What brand / model of MicroSD would you recommend?
Do faster speed cards improve the performance eg. browsing/playback, library scanning, etc.

I think the SD one should work fine as well.

Do you guys leave the screen protector on?
Does the rear glass panel scratch easily? Is it made from similar quality material like gorilla glass?

IIRC, there was a discussion about the changing sound signature from vanilla v1.00 to 1.32 to 1.33.

So to owners who have updated to v1.37, are there any significant difference (or none) comparing to your previously used versions?

Too early to tell.

However, I can confirm that 32 bit music is playing. I do find a bit of a lag though in the overall UI responsiveness.

I feel greater lag with this update.

Already big lag with the older software when playing dsd/dff.

Now same for 32bit stuff.
