If you’re after a uniquely portable way to get decent sound quality out of your smartphone (or any other USB-C -enabled device, for that matter), the FiiO QX13 has plenty to recommend it. The door, however, has been left open to any number of equally accomplished alternatives…

- Very fiddly to set up and operate
- Far from the only option in town
