I'm half looking for a dac/amp want something to use either in car rca input, via iphone to remove carplay 'lossless' from the signal path,
or to use at home/office from a laptop/phone into home system aux in.
Mojo battery lifetime seems a concern, without a clear diy/reasonably-priced mftr process to replace it; but, if it fails could subsequently use a powerbank;
as I would be doing from the outset with other products, maybe it's internal battery may provide a smoother supply.
The new fio ka17 looks interesting, with a on the go usb connector on the phone.

(I don't understand if apple otg connector will directly send current directly via usb to the dac or, if the current go to the phone which then sends it back to the device,
such that phone might complain that dac is consuming too much ?)
I suspect mojo priced reduction was more as a result of competition, not the cheaper semi-conductors post covid excuse.
optical input on mojo is nice to have though, as could use on streaming dongles chromecast audio or wilm
