    LG G7 cannot be switched to LDAC as its Bluetooth Codec

    This was the solution: The changes have to be made not only in the developer options but in the Bluetooth menu too: In the Bluetooth menu I clicked the options of the connected headphone then clicked connectivity and then best sound quality. Now I can use LDAC on all my tested devices: LG G5 and...

    LG G7 cannot be switched to LDAC as its Bluetooth Codec

    I bought an older LG G7 as my mobile music player (It is on Android 10). As I have two decent Bluetooth headphones from Sony and Shure I tried of course to pair these with LDAC. I enabled developer options, then either in Bluetooth Audio LDAC codec "best effort" or "optimal for audio" then in...

    Which not too expensive Phone has NFC, SD Card support and LDAC Bluetooth?

    I found some cheaper (and newer) phones roughly on par with the music oriented older LG phones like the G7 or V40: Xiaomi has a bunch of nearly identical phones for me: MI 10T lite = Redmi Note 9 Pro 5G, Redmi Note 10 Pro and the cheapest: Poco X3 NFC and Redmi Note 9T 5G. All of them are a tad...

    Which not too expensive Phone has NFC, SD Card support and LDAC Bluetooth?

    A few days ago I bought a backup smartphone. To my surprise it does not support NFC paying (I only learned this in a supermarket). Now I need another one: Besides NFC it must accept my music on a 512 GB SD card and should be able to send it via Bluetooth to my LDAC headphone (so far I only have...

    What LTE Tablet that can send music with LDAC or LHDC codec?

    High fidelity music never was big. It always was a niche. But some things have changed over the decades: music (and videos) are not only consumed at home but with mobile devices "everywhere". Since the early days of the walkman from Sony and the invention of MP3 the quality has improved. Some of...

    What LTE Tablet that can send music with LDAC or LHDC codec?

    I was a little bit astonished that such a simple technical question regarding media consumption, which is basically the reason for tablets (and smartphones practically too) found no answer here. And nowhere else, I asked this in several english and german forums. Well tablets are going down the...

    What LTE Tablet that can send music with LDAC or LHDC codec?

    I finally had success: After Chris advised buying the Lenovo P11 Pro directly from China as XiaoXin Pad Pro I bought one for online reading. After two weeks it arrived. And to my surprise it has all current Bluetooth-Audio-Codecs: SBC, AAC, aptX, aptX HD, aptX Adaptive-Audio, aptX TWS+Audio...

    Best bang for your buck used flagship.

    Sometimes the old ones offer more than the new ones: I found out that the best (and cheapest) phone for me as a music capabla backup for my main phone is not a cheapy new phone a quite old LG G7: It had NCF, a microSD-Card slot, a fingerprint sensor and good Bluetooth-codecs, even a very good...

    What LTE Tablet that can send music with LDAC or LHDC codec?

    Finally I want to try to go wireless with my music (512 GB microSD card). At least partly. I do not want to have another Bluetooth headphone (I have some on ear and IEMs) but this time I want to try a Bluetooth receiver to feed my wired IEMs or over ear headphones. My favourite so far is the...

    What Music App supports 5-Star-Ratings?

    I have put all my ripped CDs and downloaded music files on a very big microSDXC Card and stuffed it in my dedicated music player to listen to my music even when I do not sit in front of my Windows machine. A lot of the albums I have not listened to so far and now want to rate my music in those...

    Browser with real tabs?
