Featured Questions

  1. How can I enjoy Bluetooth LE Audio?

    To enjoy Bluetooth LE Audio, both your source (mobile devices) and your audio device (headphones) need to support it. Make sure both are compatible to experience this technology.

    With Creative Zen Hybrid ProClassic and Creative Zen Hybrid ProSXFI, you can enjoy Bluetooth LE Audio by plugging in the dongle on your device and pairing it with your headphones.

  2. Can I enjoy Bluetooth LE Audio with my phone?

    Whether you can enjoy Bluetooth Low Energy (LE) Audio with your phone depends on your phone's specific capabilities and features. Most modern smartphones released in the last few years include support for Bluetooth LE Audio.

    To determine if your phone supports it, you can check the device specifications provided by the manufacturer or refer to the phone's settings.

  3. What is the difference between Classic Bluetooth and LE Audio?

    Classic Bluetooth and Bluetooth Low Energy (LE) Audio differ primarily in terms of power consumption, data transfer rate, range, compatibility, and use cases.

    Bluetooth LE Audio is designed for low-energy consumption, prioritizing efficiency over high data transfer speeds and is optimized for short-range communication.

  4. What is the difference between LC3 and LE Audio?

    LC3, known as Low Complexity Communication Codec, is a specific audio codec used in Bluetooth LE Audio, enabling high-quality audio with low latency and energy efficiency.

  5. What is the difference between Unicast mode and Broadcast mode?

    Unicast mode refers to one-to-one communication, where data is transmitted from one device to another specific device. On the other hand, Broadcast mode refers to one-to-many communication, enabling a single source to transmit data to multiple devices all at once without individual connections.
