Smartphone for the audiophile?

i have an HTC Incredible 2 and i hate it. This has nothing to do with audio, i use an iPod for that. Just wanted to vent, sorry.

I had the iphone and am now on the second generation of the Droid.
The Apple device sounded better, but I have hooked up the Droid to my main rig via USB and am surprised at how acceptable it sounds playing mp3 files.
I don't know why anyone would use a phone in a high end system anyway, but if that is what you intend to do, I'd go Apple.

Richard, I have no intention of using a smart phone as a source in my main rig for any form of serious listening, but would possibly use an app to control other devices. Can you get digital output to work with your rig from your droid phone? I thought this can be a problem. What phone are you using?

I use my Android phone to control J River Media Center on my PC using the J River developed app Gizmo. It does not run on iPhones. There are iPhone apps for this, but not from J River. So, you may want to narrow down just what you want to control and see what apps are out there for the major ones.

I had an HTC Arrive which was basically a Windows phone + Zune. It bettered the iPod touch for fidelity but my son will never let his iPhone 4S out of his hand for me to compare :<). Note that processer power and battery power are the key limiters for both Apple and Msoft portable device's audio fidelity
