The connectivity type of the headphones.
Bluetooth is a wireless technology standard that allows data transfers between devices placed in close proximity, using short-wavelength, ultra-high frequency radio waves. Newer versions provide faster data transfers.
aptx Adaptive is an audio codec for Bluetooth devices that is developed by Qualcomm. It has a variable bit rate (between 279kbps and 420kbps), which means it can adjust the bit rate for different scenarios, such as listening to HD audio or reducing interference from other devices.
aptX is a codec used for transmitting audio wirelessly with Bluetooth. It is developed by Qualcomm, and supports 16-bit audio at a bit rate of 384kbps.
LDAC is a codec developed by Sony for Bluetooth audio. It is capable of a very high bitrate of 990kbps, which provides high resolution audio. It can also automatically adjust to a lower bitrate of 330kbps or 660kbps to increase stability.
aptX Low Latency is a codec developed by Qualcomm. It uses Bluetooth 5.0 technology to provide low latency audio (around 40ms), which is useful when you want to avoid audio lag (e.g. when playing games).
aptX HD is an audio codec for Bluetooth devices that is developed by Qualcomm. It supports high quality 24-bit audio (at a bit rate of 576kbps).
aptX Lossless is an audio codec for Bluetooth devices that is developed by Qualcomm. It supports high quality 16-bit/44.1kHz audio (at a maximum bit rate of 1200kbps). This codec provides CD-quality audio without any loss of data.
AAC is a codec that is used for Bluetooth audio. It supports 24-bit audio at 250kbps. Because it uses psychoacoustic modeling, it can provide better results than other codecs at a similar bit rate.

Good sound headphones

For someone who likes the default settings without adjusting the EQ, this would be overall good headphones. Its sound may not be as loud when compared to Sony XM4. I use them purely for music and the sound is really good. Its good headphones if they are on sale and they feel really comfortable on the ears and can listen for hours with it. The battery is really good too. I personally don’t use ANC or the Ambient sound, but the ANC setting is really good, im quite sensitive to how the pressure of ANCs have o the ears and this headphones does not have that strong pressure you get from the Sony XM4 ANC setting. Although without music playing, you can feel the pressure but bot as bad as the others. The downside to it (although not a deal breaker) is that the touch panel settings for it can sometimes pause your music when you slightly touch it. Overall, its really good headphones and you should get them if they are on sale and at a good bargain.
