Samsung is expected to include ultra-windband (UWB) support in upcoming audio wearable equipment. This data is said to improve transmission speed and offer defective audio distribution during more energy efficient. These features will require UWB support for paired equipment to work. The UWB is asked to support more bandwidth than Bluetooth and at the same time it can work. A new patent filing by the South Korean tech giant shows that it is developing wireless earphones with this technique.
Samsung can launch earphones with UWB support
Company Filed ,Through) For a patent to share audio wirelessly using UWB between a device and wireless earphone on Thursday with the US patent and trade office. The patent suggests that Bluetooth will be used to establish an initial relationship between the host device and the first earphones. Once both earbuds infection for a UWB connection, starting with primary and then secondary -acid audio transmission can begin.
According to Samsung’s patent, the UWB audio transmission will possibly provide less intervention and delay than Bluetooth connection. The company claims that the UWB allows for high-speed data transfer, especially up to 20Mbps, consuming low power, making it a power-efficient option. Additionally, fast speed may facilitate transmission of defective audio.
For UWB connectivity to function effectively with wireless earphones, host devices like smartphones, tablets, PCs, or smartwatch will also be equipped with UWB support. This technique currently selects smartphones, trackers, airpods and smartwatch. However, these devices use UWB for facilities such as tracking, access control and other things. UWB support for wireless audio transmission, if implemented, will be quite new development.
In particular, Samsung’s latest Galaxy S25+ and Galaxy S25 Ultra handsets come with UWB support. The base Galaxy S25 model does not support UWB connectivity. The previous generation Galaxy S24+ and the Galaxy S24 Ultra also have UWB support, as well as the Galaxy Z Fold 6. The Galaxy Note 20 Ultra was the first smartphone launched by Samsung with this technology.
