Qualcomm Announces Snapdragon Sound S7 Pro Audio Chip for Extended Wireless Headphone Range

Qualcomm has announced the Snapdragon Sound S7 Pro, a new audio chip for mobile headphones.
The chip uses Wi-Fi instead of Bluetooth to extend the range of wireless headphones.
The Snapdragon Sound S7 Pro is expected to deliver high-resolution audio, low latency, and improved power efficiency.

Qualcomm, a leading semiconductor company, has announced the Snapdragon Sound S7 Pro, a new audio chip for mobile headphones. The chip is designed to significantly extend the range of wireless headphones, potentially transforming the user experience. The Snapdragon Sound S7 Pro uses Wi-Fi to achieve this extended range, a departure from the traditional Bluetooth technology used in most wireless headphones. This new technology is expected to allow users to move further away from their connected devices without losing audio quality or connection. The chip also promises to deliver high-resolution audio, low latency, and improved power efficiency. Qualcomm has not yet disclosed which headphone manufacturers will be incorporating the new chip, but it is expected to be available in devices by the end of 2023.
