The platforms S5 Gen 2 and S3 Gen 2, which have low power consumption and are rich in tools, add new features to the snapdragon sound, including spatial audio with dynamic head tracking, lossless music streaming, and 48 millisecond latency between smartphone and headset for lag-free gaming.

Qualcomm invited the Bose, an American company specialized in audio quality, to talk about the integration of its products with Snapdragon Sound.

We will deliver the best wireless audio quality to date, providing an unprecedented wireless audio experience.”

Nick Smith from Bose

Great news for s of mobile devices such as smartphones and headphones who may experience problems such as dropped connectivity, audio dropouts and latency frequently. Learn more about performance gains for each item Next!

O spatial audio is seen as one of the top trends among must-have features for next generation audio devices. A survey carried out by Qualcomm showed that consumers are becoming much more tech-savvy.

“Through our consumer research State of Sound By 2022, we know that more than half of consumers say they will look for for spatial audio in their next set of wireless headphones.

James Chapman, Vice President and General Manager, Voice, Music & Wearables

In a nutshell, the spatial audio amplifies the sound, giving the feeling that sound is coming from every possible direction. With dynamic special headphone head tracking, it gives you a much more immersive experience. As the moves, the technology fills different parts of the entire experience with surround sound, making you completely immersed in a full 360º sound field.

The solution is optimized to work between the smartphone and the headset, in order to generate a very natural and immersive audio experience, through extremely low latency. On mobile, spatialization and stereo rotation are ed by the platform Snagding Schedule.

Meanwhile, on the headset, the platforms S5 and S3 offer head orientation algorithm for head rotation alignment. So the technology uses information from both earbuds to get a very accurate classification of where your head is positioned, as well as having full 3D sound field rotation and lower power consumption for the earbuds for longer periods of listening. use.

Three major benefits will be implemented: spatial audio, improved latency for games and lossless audio for mobile devices.

Various market segments are striving to integrate spatial audio into a variety of
in multimedia ways. The music industry is producing content to enhance the experience for fans of their favorite musicians, enabling more realistic virtual concert performances.

Spatial audio is also being used by filmmakers to create soundscapes, especially for home theater systems. By integrating headtracking to deliver spatial audio, game content providers will be able to create more immersive gameplay, especially in VR.

The company also identified that there is a growing number of smartphone s who are using their devices for online and competitive gaming on a regular basis🇧🇷 With the new platforms working together, it will be possible to further reduce latency, from 89 milliseconds of previous generation Snapdragon Sound, to just 48 milliseconds.

This latency borders on the minimum disparity between the devices, which results in immersive gains for games and video viewing.

With the new platforms, the company will also implement the audio features for mid-range headphones for the first time🇧🇷 This will be possible because the platforms are able to provide the additional computational power needed to high quality audio resources.


Another interesting resource for consumers is the adaptive active noise cancellation, which adjusts to the 's external environment, ensuring smooth transitions between a very immersive noise canceling experience and natural sound leakage when a listener needs to hear the world around them. For audio device developers, this improved technology helps solve common issues such as wind noise, howling, and adverse events.

So, the platform snapdragon sound brings together the best in innovation, performance and connectivity for audio. the sound platforms Qualcomm S5 and S3 Gen 2 will be available in commercial products expected in the second half of 2023.

Updates to audio technologies are just some of the announcements made by Qualcomm during the Snadragon Summit 2022🇧🇷 You can check out all the news here at showmetech!
