| PSA: Not all aptX Adaptive products are the same Posted: 22 Jan 2022 03:52 AM PST I did my homework and come to this conclusion. The second revision, r2.1 introduced with Snapdragon 888, increase the bitrate limits to 860 kbit/s with 96khz sampling rate. This revision is introduced to compete with other hi-res codecs and to replace aptX HD (QC previously claimed aptX Adaptive 420 kbit/s bitrate is equals or better than aptX HD 576 kbit/s, but apparently they changed their views). This is called "Snapdragon Sound" by QC as a way to ripe more $$$ license money instead of providing updates to old revision. The third revision, r2.2, is not yet introduced but presumably will come with "8 Gen 1+" (sm8475). The details for this revision is unknown but presumably come with aptX Lossless tech which have a variable bitrate between 140 - 1Mbit/s, as an update to the "Snapdragon Sound" moniker. Enough with the phones, now look at the audio products. From what I know most if not all of aptX Adaptive audio products on the market are first gen r2.0 (except the ones using BT5.2 QCC5141/44/51 and QCC3046). Most of them capped the sampling rate at 48khz, while some higher end maybe have their sampling rate available up to 96khz. Some even using chipsets not officially come with the codec but somehow have it shipped with questionable quality, for example products using QCC3040 that advertises aptX Adaptive. Now with the complexity of what is it called "aptX Adaptive", the sound quality will be hugely different between one sets of product compared to another. Many of the aptX Adaptive audio products nowaday are only first gen r2.0 when paired with the latest and greatest phones, cant offer the full sound quality and features that you paid for. The same opposite situation also happens when you are intentionally crippled your fancy "Snapdragon Sound" audio products when paird with early gen aptX Adaptive phones. For me this is outrageous and requires deep dive research before buying products because none of the manufacturers or Qualcomm willing to disclose the specfications unless asked directly. This made LDAC/LHDC seems a better choice here because of the fixed specs that you can trust it wont change in the future. Hope this informs your future purchases. [link] [comments] | ||

| Review: Hold on before picking Pixel 4a over iPhone SE Posted: 22 Jan 2022 04:25 AM PST After years using iOS I decided to go back to Android. However I only like Pixel Android. Im a fan of Google services and I believe their "stock" Android is the way to go. I really like Android 12 however things with this phone has not been perfect 1 - VÃdeo quality: After watching many reviews between Pixel 4a and iPhone SE camera, I got the conclusion that they were similar, both good enough for me. However in practice, this turned out to be very far from true. Posting videos in social media with this phone just... Sucks. Several person has commented on my Instagram stories saying my camera is actually bad. In what's app happens the same. Maybe Android apps compress video more? I don't know 2 - Editing videos: I have to be honest, it is very bad. I use Google photos. Cutting a video is just veeery slower than in other iphones. Even old ones. Sometimes the app just keeps loading and loading for something that iOS does immediately. 3 - Using the camera in apps: It's veeery bad. Sometimes I take a picture using What's app and it freezes, for a long time, sometimes I just cancel it and try to take the picture again. It's not realiable. I remember once I recorded a video from what's app about something important and then the video just... Dissapeared. Never happened something like that in iOS, the camera was always reliable and smooth. 4 - Sending videos: For some reason videos are sent slower than in my previous iPhone 7 plus. 5 - Calendar: Even tho I love Google Calendar (I love Google Services, I'm all about google), In iPhone I could mix my personal and work calendar, this was very handy, I liked to see what I have in a day, doesn't matter if it's work or personal. Now with Android there is this concept about separating personal and work apps, it makes sense, I understand why is it, is not that I don't like it at all, is just that for the calendar it was more comfortable to have it mixed. I don't want to be checking 2 apps. In conclusion: Compared to iPhone SE (2020), this phone is just crap for multimedia [link] [comments] |
