Audio specs of the Moto Z

[joe_var]

Hi guys,

I have been looking all over the Internet for the audio specs of the Z... with no luck.

Does anyone knows which DAC is used in the Z?
or if Hi-Res audio is supported, or which level?
Last, if APTX is also supported?

This is keeping me from getting one, as my Z3 is slowly dying, and I would like to keep a good sound quality.

Thanks in advance.
Joe

If you look at the Pocketnow review, they show that the signal to noise ratio/harmonic distortion of the Moto Z is about equal to the LG V10 (and slightly better than GS7 and G5). Unfortunately, I don't think Moto is supporting aptx anymore on its phones (possibly not for a couple years now?).

And if you think you need "hi-res" (a marketing term) audio, then go read Monty Montgomery's articles and watch his media primer videos until you figure out why you don't. (Sorry, I can't link)
