Hi guys, recently I've purchased the Sony WF-1000XM3 earbuds and I'm wondering does it support APTX HD Bluetooth Codec? Cause I Google searched it, many sources said that they're bringing it in via software updates. Any WF-1000XM3 users can confirm? Thank you 😁

No aptx hd. But its not a big deal. It sounds amazing with AAC.

However, due to the fact that TWS earphones only have about half the wireless bandwidth (as the bandwidth is split by the 2 sides) as normal BT adapter, they can't use high bitrate codec like aptx HD or LDAC, so the best they can get so far is aptx. We might have to wait till BT5.2, which will double the current audio bandwidth, or a new TWS optimized codec, before we will see further improvement. wkkm007 liked this post
