LE Audio SDK on nRF5340

[Sylvio]

Last post regarding LE Audio was from 7 months ago and SDK for LE Audio wasn't available.

1) Is the SDK for LE Audio ready and available?

2) Is there any smartphone (Android/iOS) that can stream audio over LE Audio BLE 5.2 already? Or this is ongoing stuff from vendors and SIG?

Thanks.

Hello,

We have not yet released any LE Audio SDK, no.
We also do not discuss future releases or roadmaps here on the forum, so I would recommend that you direct these inquiries to your Regional Sales Manager (RSM). If you do not know who your RSM is, please send me a direct message with your location so that I may provide you with their contact information.

Regarding the second question; the LE Audio Specification from SIG is finalized, but it still remains to be implemented by most phone manufacturers / vendors.

Best regards,
Karl

I have regularly been looking for BLE audio products endpoints for the last few years. I still really only find silicon vendors and articles hyping the "new" standard.

Even in hearing aid area where BLE Audio is meant to be a real benefit I don't see much.

Are there any true BLE audio earbuds out there?

Is 2022 going to be the year we see real products?

Join the question.
Interested in: when is the SDK for LE Audio planned? Is there a guide for using LE Audio in the nRF5340 now?

There is currently no guide for this, no. The LE Audio SDK will encompass it all once it is released.

As mentioned in my previous comment you would have to inquire with your RSM about this, since we do not discuss future roadmaps and releases here in the forum.
