aptX on Pixel 2?

[AstroStrat89]

Can cnyone confirm or dispel whether or not the P2s have support for aptX? Losing the 3.5mm jack was almost a deal breaker but decided to try out some decent BT Cans with aptX.

Be a real bummer if they killed the jack but not add some higher end wireless audio support.

GSM Arena Claims:

Bluetooth 5.0, A2DP, LE, aptX HD

It's the only one I've found.

it should I mean I'm so sure it does that I ordered a pair of rha ma750 wireless.

Sweet! Paired my Sony MDR-1000x to find it supports HD Audio: LDAC. Noticeably better audio than the Galaxy S8. I was close to returning the headphones but definitely a keeper now.

If you connect a Bluetooth device to any Pixel phone, right now, that uses the APTx codec, then you will see the option in the Bluetooth stack for that particular device. See attached....

Thanks! Curious if my LG Tone Infinims 900 will do this. I believe they have APT-X as it's been advertised on the LG neckbands for quite awhile if I remember right.

Glad I found this thread. I'm not big on audio, but it's good to know that the Pixel 2 supports aptX in case I need high-quality BT audio with less latency.

If you look at the Bluetooth window click the gear icon you will see if the device is compatible it'll say aptx.(Screen shot below)

Otherwise go into developer options scroll and you will see Bluetooth audio Codec. (Screenshots)
