If you are looking for a pair of the new Samsung Galaxy Buds 2 Pro, then you no doubt have some questions. Perhaps one of the most important is finding out which audio codecs your earphones support, as the codec can make or break your audio experience. If you have a Samsung Galaxy device (like the new Samsung Galaxy Fold 4 or Flip 4, for example), you’ll be able to take advantage of the company’s high-quality “Scalable” codec. Alternatively, for other devices, you will be able to use AAC or SBC.
For the technical side of things, Samsung’s scalable codec supports up to 24-bit HiFi audio with a maximum bitrate of 512kbps and 88kbps. In contrast, AAC broadcasts at up to 264 kbps, and SBC broadcasts at up to 328 kbps, although a weaker compression algorithm results in worse sound quality. As a result, you’ll have the best audio experience if you have a Samsung smartphone, but you can still use these earbuds with just about any device if you want thanks to our comprehensive coverage of both AAC and SBC.
Keep in mind that there are no other codecs like LDAC or aptX. If you want a slow audio transmission or a very high transmission rate, you’ll need to look elsewhere.
Samsung’s latest high-end wireless earbuds fit better, sound better, and will work with almost any of your devices thanks to global AAC support.
If you’re looking for a pair of these headphones, the Samsung Galaxy Buds 2 Pro will be available for purchase from August 26, starting at $230. These headphones were also launched along with the Samsung Galaxy Watch 5 and Samsung Galaxy Watch 5 Pro, which you might be interested in as well as an additional accessory.
