Qualcomm looks to fix truly wireless headphones with its TrueWireless technology
Truly wireless headphones are the holy grail for Bluetooth headphone companies, but with the exception of a couple of models — like Apple’s AirPods — it seems like most of the industry is still trying to figure out how to get them to work.
Qualcomm is trying to fix that with an update to the TrueWireless Stereo technology that the company employs on its Bluetooth chips for headphones, like the recently announced QCC5100 series. This could solve some of the issues that have plagued truly wireless headphones for a while now.
The updated TrueWireless Stereo adds a few small but crucial updates to how headphones that ship with Qualcomm’s latest chips handle Bluetooth audio.
