thank you Linux for giving a damn about Bluetooth headphones

For context, LDAC is one of the few wireless audio codecs stamped Hi-Res by the Japan Audio Society and its encoder is open source since Android 8, so you can see just how long Windows is sleeping on this. I'm excited about the incoming next gen called LC3plus, my next pair is definitely gonna have that.

Where the hell do you still buy Anker headphones? I'm in germany and holding on to my soundbuds flow because nothing else even comes close to comparison. I get Anker chargers and adapters and cables and whatever but nothing audio related to a point I thought they gave up on the whole branch.

They use the Soundcore branding currently for their audio products but it‘s the same company

Good to know. Might have to check them out then as my older Sonys die. Iirc DankPods "reviewed" some Soundcore headphones as an alternative to Raycons a while back.

Micro center carries soundcore products. Where I bought my current P2-L headphones, couple years back.

If you're looking for a replacement for Soundbuds Flow (i.e. ~€20), you'll be disappointed. For me, Soundbuds Flow were perfect for workouts. Cheap and I didn't care too much about sound quality. Anker rebooted their audio line and focuses on mid-range to high-end products.
