Features that need a specific device
ASamsung Galaxy Buds4 Pro
| Feature | Needs |
|---|---|
| Ultra High Quality audio up to 24-bit / 96 kHz | Galaxy S26, S25, S24 and S23 Series, Z Fold7, Z Flip7, Z Fold6, Z Flip6, Z Fold5, Z Flip5, Tab S11, Tab S10 and Tab S9 Series with One UI 6.1.1+. UHQ is off by default. Use phone settings on One UI 8.0+ or Galaxy Wearable on earlier versions. |
| Super wideband calls | Samsung March 3, 2026 chart lists S26 / S25 Series, Z Fold7 / Fold6 / Flip7 / Flip6, Tab S11 / S10 Series, S25 FE / S24 FE, A57, A56, A37, A36, A17 and A16. Maker product FAQ requires One UI 6.1.1+ and warns that support also depends on the mobile network. |
| 360 Audio | Samsung Galaxy smartphones and Galaxy Tab devices with One UI 3.1 or later, and selected Samsung TV models |
| Head gestures | Compatible Galaxy device with One UI 8.5 or later. Feature is off by default and requires setup. Samsung account required for Galaxy Wearable settings. |
| Advanced settings | One UI 8.0 or later, or the Galaxy Wearable app on Android 12.0 or above with at least 1.5 GB of memory. Not supported on iOS |
| Gaming mode | Samsung mobile device |
| Interpreter | Galaxy smartphone with Galaxy AI on One UI 6.1.1 or later |
| 24-bit / 48 kHz audio | Samsung March 3, 2026 compatibility chart lists Galaxy S25 FE, S24 FE, A57, A56, A37, A36, A17 and A16 as 24-bit / 48 kHz hosts, not 96 kHz hosts. |
| Saved settings on iOS or other Bluetooth devices | First enable Adaptive Noise Control, Adaptive ANC/EQ, Equalizer, Voice/Siren Detect or Voice Command through Galaxy Wearable on Android. These enabled features persist on other Bluetooth devices until disabled through the same Android process. |
| Auracast | Galaxy or other Android source device with Auracast capability. Samsung March 3, 2026 compatibility chart does not support Auracast on iOS or other Bluetooth devices. |
| Auto Switch | Samsung account registered through Galaxy Wearable. Samsung chart supports Galaxy and other Android devices, not iOS or other Bluetooth devices. |
Source3Maker product pagesamsung.com/us/audio-sound/galaxy-buds4-proRead 8 October 2026Current FAQ retains S23/S24, Fold5 / Flip5 and Tab S9 among 96 kHz hosts absent from the shorter March chart. UHQ is off by default. One UI 8.0 refers to settings location, not eligibility. SWB also depends on network support.6Owner's manualdownloadcenter.samsung.com/content/UM/202603/20260311043809413/WEA_R540_R640_EN_UG_YLA_022626_FINAL.pdfRead 30 September 202612Maker spec sheet (PDF)image-us.samsung.com/SamsungUS/home/mobile/audio-sound/galaxy-buds4/Buds4F-Available-Features-by-Device-As-of-2026-03-03.pdfRead 8 October 2026As of 3 March 2026. Page 2 distinguishes 96 kHz hosts from S25 FE / S24 FE and listed A-series 48 kHz hosts, which also support SWB. Page 1 footnote **: listed Android-enabled settings persist on other Bluetooth hosts until disabled in Wear. Product FAQ separately lists older 96 kHz hosts absent from the shorter chart. No custom-profile capacity or firmware-independent storage claim is inferred.
BSennheiser MOMENTUM True Wireless 5
| Feature | Needs |
|---|---|
| aptX Adaptive high-resolution playback | Compatible aptX Adaptive source and high-resolution audio. Select 24-bit/96 kHz in Smart Control Plus. Native iPhone Bluetooth uses AAC or SBC. |
| aptX Lossless playback | Compatible aptX Lossless source. Separate 16-bit/44.1 kHz lossless mode, not 96 kHz lossless. |
| LE Audio and Auracast | Maker FAQ says future firmware will enable these hardware capabilities. No released enabling firmware is proven as of this research. |
| Bluetooth multipoint | Enable in Smart Control Plus. Two concurrent source devices, six saved pairings. Only one device plays audio at a time. |
| High-resolution playback from USB sources | Optional Sennheiser BTD 700 Bluetooth transmitter on compatible Android, iOS/iPadOS, Windows or macOS USB ports. This is a Bluetooth audio path, not direct earbud USB or proprietary 2.4 GHz audio. |
| Sound Personalization | Smart Control Plus and a Sennheiser account. |
