Does N9 support AptX ?
 
Hi everyone,
I suppose someone should have a definitive answer as to whether N9 supports AptX by now. If someone already answered this question elsewhere please point me in the right direction and feel free to remove this thread. I couldn't find it on my own :-)

Do you mean this AptX?
If yes, then NO it is not supported.

Doubt it, heard zilch about it, would be nice.

Actually now that you mention that...
I recall it being discussed at one point in the epic thread.
Hmmm, wonder what came of it

@Hurrian: Yes, that's the AptX I meant. Do you know that as a fact or is that your best guess? Darn, I want it to support AptX so much..

Anyway, I just wrote to nokia asking about it. So sometime next week we could have an official response.

Mention those two links I linked-to above when you ask them.
They did say they had licensed it, & that ad sure look like it's implemented on some devices!
Pretty sure that's all there was in the thread search...

I asked nokia some time ago, it does not support apt-x. I was pissed off cause they show all their apt-x gadgets in combination with the N9. E.g. in the ad for the wireless music receiver (apt-x) they talk about cd quality etc. and the phone they use is the N9. Cheaters.

The be honest though bluetooth from my N9 sounds a lot better on my apt-x creative speakers than from my pc (don't have an apt-x dongle)

Impressive....
But what sort of BT & sound-card does your PC have?

A lady from nokia just called me. As Rugoz said earlier the Aptx codec is not supported at the moment. But they are considering implementing AptX to N9 and some other phones. Too bad she didn't say which ones and when.

If it's not clearly on the road map "now" or not implemented by now.
Then its never gunna happen IMO...

We need something more concrete from them than that.
Oh well, one can dream.....
