Qualcomm S7 and S7 Pro Gen 1 Sound Platform Delivers Next-Level Audio
In particular:
- The Qualcomm S7 and S7 Pro Gen 1 Platforms use an unprecedented amount of artificial intelligence (AI) on the smartphone to provide the most innovative, individualised, and responsive audio experiences we’ve ever offered.
- The next generation of platforms offers compute power that is six times higher, artificial intelligence power that is approximately one hundred times higher, and a new category of ultra-premium performance that draws very little power.
- With support for up to 192kHz lossless music quality, the S7 Pro Gen 1 Sound platform is the first to integrate Qualcomm Expanded Personal Area Network Technology (XPAN) and micro-power Wi-Fi networking to increase audio range throughout the house, building, or campus.
Today, Qualcomm Technologies International, Ltd. made the announcement that they would be releasing the Qualcomm S7 and S7 Pro Gen1 Sound platforms at the Snapdragon Summit. These are the most powerful audio platforms we have ever created, and they were designed for earbuds, headphones, and speakers.
They combine high performance with low power consumption, on-device artificial intelligence with advanced connectivity in order to spark a new age of audio innovation and provide ground-breaking user experiences. Users will be able to move freely about a house, building, or campus while listening to music or making calls thanks to the S7 Pro Gen 1 s inclusion of micro-power Wi-Fi, which significantly increases the range of audio devices beyond what is currently achievable by merely utilising Bluetooth.
These systems have established a new standard for high-performance sound while using an extremely minimal amount of electricity. According to Dino Bekis, vice president and general manager of Wearables and Mixed Signals Solutions for Qualcomm Technologies, Inc., “They are packed with premium technologies that work together with on-device AI to deliver immersive and personalised audio experiences wherever you go – whether in a meeting, socialising, gaming, listening to music, or just needing some quiet time.” These headphones have a number of features that make them stand out from other headphones on the market.
“The S7 Pro Gen 1 Platform with our micro-power Wi-Fi and the revolutionary Qualcomm XPAN technology further transforms the sound experience by enabling whole home and building audio coverage, support for up to 192kHz multi-channel lossless music streaming, and enhanced multi-channel spatial audio for gaming.”
Our Snapdragon Sound Technology is included in our most recent Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 Mobile Platform as well as our Snapdragon X Elite. When this technology is connected with a consumer device that is powered by either the S7 or S7 Pro Gen 1 platforms, the customer will hear sound in a manner that was previously not conceivable.
Seventy-three percent of respondents to our most recent State of Sound Report said, “he make sure that sound quality on my devices gets better and better with every purchase.” This finding revealed that premium audio experiences are at the forefront of listeners’ minds. Sixty-nine percent of respondents listed lossless audio quality as a buying motivator for their next pair of earphones, indicating that demand for high-quality music has reached an all-time high.
The Snapdragon Summit Event Hub will also provide material from the event, as well as additional information, livestream replays, and recordings of the event.
