While there's no official confirmation from Samsung, it's possible that future updates for their flagship devices could include support for aptX Lossless and aptX HD codecs. Here's why:
* Hardware Capability: The Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 chipset used in the S24 series supports these codecs, indicating that the hardware is capable of handling them.
* User Demand: Many audiophiles and users value high-fidelity audio, and the inclusion of aptX Lossless and aptX HD would be a welcome addition for those who prioritize sound quality.
* Industry Trend: Other Android manufacturers are increasingly incorporating support for these codecs in their devices, which could put pressure on Samsung to follow suit to remain competitive.
However, there are also factors that might prevent Samsung from adding these codecs:
* Licensing Costs: Qualcomm charges licensing fees for the use of aptX codecs, which could be a cost that Samsung might be unwilling to incur.
* Focus on Proprietary Solutions: Samsung has its own proprietary audio technologies like Samsung Scalable Codec (SSC), and they might prioritize these over third-party codecs.
* Limited Availability of Compatible Devices: The number of devices that support aptX Lossless and aptX HD is still relatively limited, which could make it less appealing for Samsung to invest in supporting them.
Ultimately, the decision of whether or not to include aptX Lossless and aptX HD in future updates rests with Samsung. While there's a possibility that they might add support for these codecs, it's also possible that they might continue to focus on their own proprietary audio technologies.
