What is the LHDC codec and what Xiaomi devices have support and compatibility

In the last year, it is very likely that you have heard of LHDC , an audio codec for transmission via Bluetooth that we no longer only find in more advanced gadgets and mobiles but also in several of the latest Xiaomi wireless headphones and smartphones .

In detail, LHDC, from Low latency and High Definition audio Codec, is an audio codec born in order to compete directly with SBC, one of the most widespread but basic codecs that we can find on the market today.

Unlike SBC, LHDC offers us a much higher sound quality , even reaching 900kbps of transfer via Bluetooth. In contrast, the SBC codec fails to exceed 329kbps, thereby limiting the maximum quality.

LHDC, more efficient and with less lag or lag

In addition, the LHDC codec offers better energy efficiency, making the Bluetooth connection stable even while consuming less energy. To this is added a sampling frequency of up to 96kHz at a bit depth of up to 24 bits , guaranteeing almost lossless quality.

Advantages of LHDC compared to other codecs.

Beyond this and perhaps one of the most important characteristics is the low latency or delay that this codec offers. Unlike others, LHDC manages to maintain an almost negligible level of lag, especially when viewing videos or playing video games where video / audio synchronization is essential.

In short, the LHDC codec is at the height of the SONY LDAC , yes, unlike this in that it is not exclusive to a brand, but has the support of a wide variety of technology firms of all kinds.
