Qualcomm has announced their successor to the QCC5100 and QCC30xx series Bluetooth audio SoC, called the QCC514X and Qualcomm QCC304X respectively. It offers many improvements like increased battery life and comfort, integrated dedicated hardware for Hybrid Qualcomm ANC, Voice Assistant support, premium wireless sound and more. One of the highlight technologies that has been developed for the new series is Qualcomm TrueWireless Mirroring technology. With it, only one earbud remains connected to the device while the other mirrors the connected earbud. The cool part is that it can rapidly swap the connection between the earbuds at any time and also manage a single Bluetooth address so that only one “device” shows up on the phone. Both SoCs' integrate Qualcomm's Hybrid ANC technology, which also offers super-low latency leak-through of the outside environment. Power consumption has also improved, with Qualcomm estimating 13 hours of playtime based on 65mAh battery. Other features include, Always on Voice activation in premium QCC514X chip and push-button voice activation in the lower end QCC304X chip. Commenting on the launch, James Chapman, vice president and general manager, Voice, Music & Wearables, Qualcomm Technologies International, Ltd. said: Customers rely on us to help them deliver premium sound with long battery life and robust truly ...
