Qualcomm Unveils S7 Pro Snapdragon Sound Platform With Micro-Power Wi-Fi and 24-bit/19kHz Lossless Streaming
audioxpress.com
During its Snapdragon Summit event Qualcomm unveiled the latest S7 and S7 Pro Gen1 Sound platforms, which will soon power a new generation of advanced audio products. The new platforms offer five times the compute power, three times the DSP processing power, and almost 100 times on-device AI processing power compared to the previous generation. A real differentiator is the use of micro-power Wi-Fi to extend wireless audio range and support for up to 192kHz lossless music quality in the S7 Pro.

This new S7/S7 Pro platform (not to be confused with aptX Lossless) allows headphones and speakers to connect to phones using “micro-power” wifi for up to 192kHz lossless music quality in the S7 Pro. Some other features includes better adaptive ANC and more powerful DSP.

    I do think there’s still a major difference between Bluetooth and lossless on high-quality speakers or headphones, and once this is figured out then it will obsolete the need for wired connections.
