In an exciting development, Samsung has announced a firmware update that promises to elevate audio quality across two fronts: the Galaxy Buds 2 Pro and select Samsung smart TVs. This update, heralded for its LE Audio enhancements, showcases Samsung’s commitment to pushing the boundaries of audio technology.
Details of the Buds 2 Pro and Smart TV update
The focus of this update lies in enhancing LE Audio capabilities. Galaxy Buds 2 Pro users can anticipate a transformative experience as the update unleashes a host of features that enrich their audio journey. Meanwhile, Samsung smart TVs, including the 2023 Neo QLED 8K and 2023 MICRO LED models, stand to benefit from the upgrade.
A pivotal aspect of this update revolves around “Auracast broadcast audio technology,” which amplifies audio transmission to nearby Bluetooth devices. This extension of LE Audio capabilities to Samsung TVs ushers in a new era of immersive sound, catering to a diverse range of multimedia experiences.
Among the innovations is the introduction of 360 Audio Recording, a cutting-edge LE Audio-based technology. This innovation empowers Galaxy smartphones to capture positional sound in videos without the need for additional hardware. The Galaxy Book 3 devices are also set to receive lower latency, enriching multimedia consumption and gaming.
Taking a step further, Samsung is expanding the horizons of audio connectivity. After the update, the Auracast broadcast for the Galaxy Buds 2 Pro and supported smart TVs will enable users to connect multiple buds to the TV, a feat that previously limited to two. This advancement promises a shared audio experience like never before.
As anticipation builds, Samsung’s unveiling of these enhancements, along with other innovations, is scheduled for this year’s IFA event in Berlin from September 1 to 5. This showcase promises to be a testament to Samsung’s dedication to enriching audio quality and elevating the overall user experience across their range of devices.
