Whats the audio quality like using bluetooth on the Infuse? I only use high quality music files, mostly FLAC via a AUX cable in my vehicle currently.
lol i thought i was the only one using FLAC still these days but Bluetooth quality sucks on a lot of headphones since it made Wireless not for Quality so since you have FLAC i would go with Wired Headphones that have a mic on it
I was researching bluetooth receivers for my home stereo and came across ones touting aptX audio codec for hi-fidelity sound over bluetooth. I then wondered if my RMHD was capable of it. I did not see it listed in the specs, but I went to csr's website and it is listed as having aptx codec. http://www.csr.com/technology-solutions/av/audio-products-powered-by-csr-aptx/smartphone
I have been avoiding bluetooth audio because of the loss of audio quality. Does anyone have experience with aptX? Is it as good as hardwired as it claims to be?
I stream Pandora via Bluetooth.. sounds fine
And no messy wires

Having 24-bit high-resolution sound with Dolby Audio™ Surround, built-in DAC and high-output amplifier makes this device appealing to me. Do you get the benefits of High-Fidelity sound over Bluetooth streaming?
In My opinion no, it is only hi-fi headphones AMP.

One of the reviewer mentioned its very useful when you play via Bluetooth speaker or even the normal headphones play boosted up sound. Can someone check this?
With stronger amplifier, it will be better normal headphones sure.

I can't get the BoomSound with my SG4 headphones. Need something else?
Works with my htc m7 headphones. It makes the music louder. Sound quality is a little better with it on, but I have trouble distinguishing if it's just because the volume is louder. I wonder if having it on would drain the battery faster.
Hi, can you tell if bluetooth codecs like Aptx hd and aptx adaptive from the developers options menu were added ?
LDAC, SSC, SBC, AAC and AptX are present.
AptX HD is likely not supported. Never has been.
Well, it sucks.
The Buds+ (SSC) are excellent for calls, and very good for music using Poweramp's graphic equalizer. Double as noise plugs. Very long battery life.
A LDAC headet from Sony or Panasonic be the next step up.
All are inferior to a hardwired headset.
Samsung had room for the 3.5mm jack and the damn SD card slot.
It's netted them a lot of lost sales from me. I now have 2 N10+'s and don't intend to buy any new smartphone for 2-3 years.
Other than battery replacements the N10+ can easily last 3+ years. This one I'm using is 2.5 yo, in mint condition with one battery replacement.
Still running on Pie, current load will be 2 yo in June, still fast and stable with minimal maintenance. Security is simply not an issue.
The N10+'s color rendering index and white point exceed the newer variable refresh rate displays.
It gets 10 hours battery life. It's still a blast to use which is why I got a backup one... whatever
"Samsung should add the aptX HD, aptX Adaptive and aptX TWS+ Bluetooth audio codecs to their line of Galaxy S products."

All aptX Bluetooth audio codecs on Samsung Galaxy S devices

You should care people, because there's no more Jack 3.5mm...
Bluetooth on this phone is trash
The last time we had AptX HD was during the S8 plus with Oreo.
They supported the Level Headphones with UHD and AptX HD.
Then when Pie came, they discontinued the headphones and they removed AptX HD.
People with such headphones made petitions in the Samsung community forums and samsung finally resurrected the AptX in the Note9. During this time, samsung pushed the Samsung scalable codec for all the new wireless headphones and true wireless headphones.
But dont expect samsung to bring anything back, they are now supporting their own codec and devices. Still LDAC works well.
Listening to music via BT is trash anyway, whatever ther codec, so why care?

You're totally wrong, it sounds even better via BT than wire for most of BT headphones because they use their own DAC. The KBPS does not make everything, If you have at least 500 KBPS is way enough for sound quality, most important is DAC and of course the Headphone itself.
Boom player, neutron, poweramp or stock samsung music player. And for best sound you need best earphone (bragi dash pro)I use.

U'd better study a little...
All BT codecs are compressed (even aptx HD) and lossy and cannot reach HiRes quality. If u listen to Spotify of course you're already using a very bad source.

Damn you understood nothing, what I said ?, Which sound better between listening 320Kbps MP3 in a AUDI A8 with Bang&Olufsen audio system and a wired JBL headphone with MASTER TIDAL 24 bits music etc... Can you answer which is the best experienced, after you can tell me u'd better study a lot.
Depends on how u connect headphones to smartphone, if dac of the dongle kn MQA certified (oh and btw MQA is compressed a d lossy)... There is no BT that is bit perfect, and if u listen to mp3 quality the codec is insignificant... even if you listen to Cd quality, since no bt codec can match...
U can have the best dac in the world, but garbage in garbage out... Take a 24bit 192KHz FLAC and play it via aptx hd and your hear trash... play it via any other bt codec a d you hear slightly worst trash... it's still trash so why care?
Trying to find info about the BT codecs it supports, and not having much luck.
When i look in developer menu, aptx and ldac are both there, no aptx hd though? i don't have any ldac headphones.. will they actually work (full ldac support) on this phone if i did buy some?
Also, my Pixel 3a xl would output 48khz when in aptx, but it only shows as 44.1 on this phone?! cannot pick 48khz, not that i'd probably hear the difference
Thanks for any info.
LDAC works on both my WH-1000XM3 and WF-1000XM4. Sad that aptX HD doesn't work (at least, there is no way to tell whether it is HD or just normal aptX).
For most music though, 44.1khz is better than 48khz since CDs are at 44.1khz.

That's good to know about LDAC working ok.
Thanks for the reply.
Thought i'd add a confirmation from myself.
Recently got a pair of Sony XM4s, and LDAC is perfect on this phone..when you've enabled it
Lovely headphones btw..
