Entry-level price

Flagship chips

An all-new processor beyond the average – inside the JM21 is the Qualcomm Snapdragon 680, featuring 8-cores based on the Kryo™ 265 architecture, clock frequencies up to 2.4GHz, and made on the 6nm fabrication process. Experience a significant performance leap with noticeably reduced power consumption for a silky-smooth experience.

Note: Due to the larger memory usage of Android 13, and the JM21 being limited to 3GB of RAM due to cost constraints, it is recommended to only install streaming music apps for optimal user experience. Other apps are not recommended for installation. Additionally, to ensure sound quality and performance, please avoid running multiple apps simultaneously.

Powerful penetrating sound

700mW power output

A specially-designed and tuned audio circuit allows the JM21 to achieve a balanced power output of up to 700mW+700mW within an ultra-thin body of only 13mm thickness. This ensures that it drives all kinds of headphones with ease.

3 gain levels

3 volume curves

The JM21 has 3 levels of low, medium and high gains, each gain level having its own volume curve. This allows the JM21 to give you a better listening experience with various types of headphones, whether you are using earphones or over-ear headphones.

Dual flagship CS43198 DAC Fully balanced design

Two Cirrus Logic flagship CS43198 DACs are paired with two high-performance SGM8262 op-amps in a fully balanced audio design. Thanks to our learnings from the development of numerous previous products, we have further optimized the segmented power supply as well as the front and rear stage gain stages for wider dynamic range and enriched musicality.

Segmented power supply

Shielded partitions

Shielded partitions

The main control, DAC, and headphone amplifier sections are separated into their own zones, each with its own shielding and isolation. This further reduces signal crosstalk and resists external signal interference, resulting in purer sound quality.

Segmented power supply

There are independent power supplies for digital and analog sections. The DAC, voltage, and current amplification stages each are handled by a dedicated stage in the three-stage segmented power supply. Each of the op-amps in the four- channel amplification stage is equipped with four independent LDO precision regulators.

Simply smooth

Custom Android 13 OS

The deeply customized Android 13 operating system is both intuitive and smooth. It also allows you to install major streaming music apps or any other kinds of apps.

Proprietary DAPS

(Digital Audio Purification System)

5th-gen FPGA + dual custom

femtosecond crystal oscillators

FIIO collaborated closely with its suppliers to specifically select for the JM21 10ppm low-temperature drift crystal oscillators with ceramic gold-plated bases and ultra-low phase noise. These custom crystal oscillators are screened at the femtosecond level to ensure consistent and stable output. The high-precision, low-jitter unified clock source ensures that digital audio signals are precisely handled as they go through the audio circuit.

SRC audio degradation

Neatly solved

Whether you are using FiiO Music, Apple Music, or other third- party apps to play local music, or even connecting to an external DAC through USB, the audio’s original sampling rate is untouched to ensure lossless sound quality.

Ultra-thin body

Music flowing through your fingertips

The JM21 features brand-new sky blue contrasting color design in a lightweight design that can be comfortably held with just one hand. Your fingers will simply glide over the 4.7-inch HD screen, allowing the JM21 to produce music that flows through your fingertips.

Say Bye to battery anxiety!

12.5 hours ultra-long battery life

The ultra-long battery life, enough for continuous listening for an entire day, ensures you can listen pleasantly without anxiety of running out of power.

Bluetooth can be HiFi

Two-way LDAC connection

Bluetooth reception: SBC/AAC/LDAC

The JM21 supports two-way Bluetooth 5.0, being able to transmit and receive Bluetooth signals.  This ensures stable yet high-quality Bluetooth audio.

Bluetooth transmission: SBC/AAC/aptX/aptX HD/LHDC/LDAC

Asynchronous USB DAC

Supports 384kHz/32bit

When connected to a MacOS or Windows computer, the JM21 can greatly improve your audio experience there with sampling rate support up to 384kHz/32bit.

*USB DAC functionality is designed for audio development purpose with slightly higher latency. It is not recommended to watch videos using this mode.
