500+ Head-Fier
Hi
I'm thinking about purchasing a NC wireless headphone to replace my Bose QC wired.
I mainly use it for air travel (though there isn't much of it at the moment) but also would like to use it for TV and occasional music. I've narrowed the choice down to the Sony product, either the current WH-1000XM4 or the superseded WH-1000XM3 model. However I noticed that while the XM4 supports SBC, AAC and LDAC streaming codecs, it doesn't support AptX whereas the XM3 does.
My bluetooth device is the Avantree Oasis Plus which supports aptX, aptX LL and aptX HD but doesn't say if it supports any of the other codecs.
So the question is would the XM4 still work with Avantree device? And regardless, are there any advantages to sticking with aptX rather than AAC or the other codecs?
Thanks
