    LG G5 with the attached Hi-Fi Plus module (32bit Hi-Fi DAC + Amp)

    Has 4GB ram, dual sim, expandable microsd slot up to 256GB, dual camera set-up with 135/75 degree cameras in its 16MP f1.8/8MP lenses, NFC and good speaker.

    You'll have to compromise on the screen size at 5.3" and the average battery life though the latter is removable so you can carry another one.

    From my personal experience I must say that sound quality depends on Head Phone not device. I suggest you to buy any HTC device then go for a high quality Head Phone.
