either should work great but if you are driving anything demanding I would go Q! so it doesn't drain your phone's battery. apparently it has issues if your using android but it could be fixed now. other reccomendations would be the Fiio BTR3 because it has bluetooth  capabilities with LDAC and APTX but it can also act as a usb dac. What headphones are you using?

The Bluetooth on sounds better than the dongle. But that was just another suggestion.  But the fiio q1 I said would be my pick.
