I have an ASUS Zenfone 8 and I love that even the latest version still has a 3.5mm out, but I just started poking around in the settings for my Samsung Galaxy tablet and realized that Samsung Galaxy devices get Dolby Atmos. (Movies have never been better!) It got me thinking, what phones do other auditorily-inclined people use? Does AptX/LDAC support matter to you? Does audio go into your purchasing decisions at all?

I use my oneplus 6t with a dongle as my DAP since my fiio x1 finally broke.
I would absolutely not use a phone as a music player cause

  1. you use up battery you need for phone to function as a phone
  2. unless your music horizons are non existant or you only stream, your phones memory is used up with half your library
  3. the solders on ports will work harden and will break leaving you with a very expensive brick

Just get a dap for 300 that will last you a decade.
