Qualcomm Technologies International, Ltd. revealed a new platform for its Qualcomm S3 Gen 2 Sound Platform. This recently improved solution is designed with gaming in mind. It delivers ultra-low latency of less than 20ms for lag-free wireless audio with a speech back-channel for in-game conversation by fusing Snapdragon Sound with LE Audio. The latency is even lower while only supplying game audio.

The solution will also support the most recent LE Audio Auracast broadcast capabilities for dongles and adapters, which may turn a variety of devices into premium broadcast platforms, including Televisions, phones, laptops, PCs, consoles, and a wide range of other audio equipment.

Snapdragon Sound and Qualcomm’s aptX Adaptive audio technology allow 24-bit, 96kHz high-resolution Bluetooth streaming for music listening. Listeners may hear every nuance of their song just as the artist intended it to be heard because of Snapdragon Sound’s premium music playback capabilities.

“We have reduced latencies and enhanced audio quality with each version of Snapdragon Sound, and with this most recent addition to our Qualcomm S3 Gen 2 Sound portfolio, we are delivering our greatest wireless gaming experience to date.
