Qualcomm Bluetooth audio solution among first to deliver certified LE Audio
Great sound is fundamental to connected experiences, and Qualcomm Technologies is at the forefront driving innovation for premium wireless audio – applying our complete, end-to-end system approach across mobile devices, earbuds, headphones, and speakers. One of the latest innovations in the Bluetooth audio industry is LE Audio, and the new LE Audio standard will enable a whole new era of listening experiences – including audio sharing with broadcast audio capability.
Qualcomm FastConnect 6900 system, our premium connectivity system, and our flagship Bluetooth earbud platforms – Qualcomm QCC5151 QCC5171 and Qualcomm QCC305x QCC307x (Editor's Note: the product numbers were updated 04/11/2022 as QCC5151 and QCC305x no longer support LE Audio) – are among the first solutions to have been qualified by the Bluetooth SIG for audio sharing with LE Audio, enabling end-to-end broadcast audio experiences.
Broadcast audio allows smartphone users to wirelessly connect their audio stream with the earbuds of friends and family, so everyone can enjoy a shared listening experience. Users can connect an unlimited number of earbuds to their phone so they can share a song with friends, watch a movie together without a wired splitter, or even host their own silent disco.
Innovation applied across Bluetooth standards
Our Bluetooth audio innovations are designed for real-world use cases. Enhanced Bluetooth robustness and compatibility with traditional Bluetooth technologies are vital to ensure that new-era Bluetooth devices work in real-world use cases as the global ecosystem evolves. With our end-to-end optimized tech, Qualcomm Technologies is bringing the best LE Audio features together with the best traditional Bluetooth features so that manufacturers can design and deploy their audio products with confidence.
