But what I don't get is APTX adaptive, it was launched last year and to this day 3 pair of headphones and 2 Android phones from Asus is the only devices that supports it.

Is this codec dead? Or What is Qualcomm doing? Also what's the point of promoting this feature if barely any devices supports it? There's no way to connect it to any device except 2 phones from a rather small player in the Android world.
Qualcomm doesn't seem to have an ordinary customer support either for us mortals.
Would love to have this codec available on both my PC and phone as i experience the usual Bluetooth audio delay.
I believe the snapdragon 855 is the first SOC to support it and its optional, up to the phone manufacturer to support it. As for bluetooth chipsets, only the last gen flagship QCC5100 family supports it and so far the new B&W headphones and sports earphone are the only products on the market that use it. I believe there are some chi-fi phones coming too but they're the linked sports kind
