Fiio supports LDAC on CSR chips (like CSR8675), not on QCC line. But there are products around with QCC and LDAC, so this looks doable. But again - I may be missing something, so best to hear anything officially.

For ex., IFI Audio Zen Blue is also using qcc5100 for bluetooth connectivity (unfortunately, not sure which exact version) - but it does support LDAC and HWA. So, doesn't look like a Qualcomm issue... This is why it is good to hear an answer from Fiio itself - with explanation, or excuses, or...

however, that makes utws5 technically less competitive for around 1/4 of smartphones in the world :) and talking about Samsung - yes, it is a political decision, but this is something that most probably will not change anywhere soon. LDAC support on TWS side gives a good advantage

on other hand - most popular smarphones (samsung) does not support anything higher than old plain aptx (no hd, or adaptive). but they perfectly support LDAC.

@FiiO Willson Any chance that UTWS5 will get LDAC in the feature? Or this is not possible? Currently using my lovely BTR5, but want to go away from the wire at all. And LDAC support is the show-stopper for me, i'll have to stay with btr5 until somebody will release tws adapters with ldac (going...

So, looks like old customers are as usual... To not say incorrect, just forgotten? No more updates for us?

I can confirm that in 3.34 we have degradation with DAC functionality. This is very sad, can we hope about new version with fixes?
