Spotify's lossless HiFi update might be coming very soon

It seems Spotify HiFi might be dropping sometime in the near future, if the latest leaks are to be believed. Spicetify, which is a command-line interface tool for the desktop Spotify client, has posted multiple images on its social media account that have mentions of this upcoming feature within the latest v1.2.66 update. Spotify 1.2.66 mentions lossless in more parts of UI 👇#NewSpotify #SpotifyLossless #SpotifyLossless (pigeon) is mentioned in "Connect to the device" sidebar & under the artist in NPB (Now Playing Bar)Lossless will be available up to 24-bit/44.1KHz (FLAC + Widevine). Lossless… — spicetify (@spicetifyapp) June 19, 2025 For starters, the most obvious giveaway is the presence of a new option within the Audio quality setting dropdown, which includes a Lossless setting that can provide up to 24-bit/44.1kHz audio in FLAC. The onboarding for the app also includes mentions of lossless audio for Premium subscribers. Aside from lossless, it seems Spotify also has some new audio features up its sleeve, which, when paired with a compatible pair of headphones, claims to offer "cleaner, more natural sound". Digging further into the code also revealed mentions of spatial audio without further elaboration. What's not visible in these screenshots is what technology is being used for spatial audio, as there is no mention of specific codecs such as Dolby Atmos. It's possible the aforementioned cleaner, natural sound feature could be using Spotify's proprietary spatial audio tech that only works with select headphones. Moreover, there is also no mention of high resolution audio, as sampling rates seem to top out at a decidedly CD-quality 44.1kHz. Spatial Audio is mentioned in the code, however, I don't think it's Dolby Atmos. I don't see any UI or feature regarding Spatial Audio either, just that it exists in code interacting with the player so, don't expect it anytime soon — spicetify (@spicetifyapp) June 19, 2025 Of course, this was all dug out with the help of the override product state feature in the Spicetify tool and none of it is accessible in the current app. Even with the tool, you can only see mentions of the new features and not actually use them. Spotify announced its lossless HiFi feature all the way back in early 2021. While the company didn't provide a date, it was clear that the feature was imminent and most likely coming at a higher pricing tier than regular Premium. Then, Apple decided to rain on Spotify's parade and launched its own lossless audio feature, complete with high resolution audio and Dolby Atmos, for no additional cost. This likely took the wind out of Spotify's sails as the company immediately dropped all talks of the HiFi feature and adopted radio silence. It seems it was completely caught off guard and since then has been trying to formulate a viable plan to finally launch the service. It's possible the company might still end up charging more for the HiFi plan but we have heard over the years that there will be additional content included to justify it and the company has been building quite the content library outside of just music. As for now, we still don't have an exact date, so this feature could either drop tomorrow, two months later, or never. Source

Motorola Razr 2025+ review

Razrs aplenty, more so in the US than anywhere else. The Razr+ 2025 is another entry in the Motorola clamshell foldable lineup, a middle ground between the vanilla model and the high-end Ultra. Razr+ 2025 (left) next to Razr 2025 This particular model is seemingly a US-exclusive - not even Motorola Canada appears to be selling it. Both the US and Canada are getting the plain Razr 2025 and the Razr 2025 Ultra, so there's no shortage of North American Razrs. This year, there's no direct international counterpart to this Razr+ - the non-plus and the Ultra have their Razr 60 alter egos. Motorola Razr+ 2025 • Motorola Razr 2025 • Motorola Razr Ultra 2025 That said, it's worth keeping in mind that the Razr+ 2025 is in many ways the same phone as the Razr+ 2024, which, in turn, is the North American version of the Razr 50 Ultra (reviewed here). We'll be coming back to these comparisons along the way, as well as when we get to decision-making time. Motorola Razr+ 2025 • Motorola Razr+ 2024 • Motorola Razr 50 Ultra As the middle option in the roster, the Razr+ 2025 has a beefier chipset than the vanilla model, but not the current flagship Snapdragon that the Ultra gets. Another inbetween solution can be seen in the displays - main one is almost like on the vanilla model, the cover one is the same as on the Ultra. The camera system is another area where the plus is bridging the gap, relying on the same main camera as the Razr 2025, but paired with a telephoto instead of an ultrawide - the Ultra makes do without a zoom camera, but features nicer main and ultrawide modules. There's a minor upgrade in the ingress protection, same move to IP48 that we saw on the Razr 2025. However, there's no change to battery capacity, unfortunately.

Misc: Fingerprint reader (side-mounted); stereo speakers (with Dolby Atmos). Motorola Razr+ 2025 unboxing The Razr+ 2025 showed up in a box no different than the one we got the non-plus in. It's a graphite-colored cardboard package with not a whole lot inside. There's no charger, but you do get a USB-C cable, and it's an e-Mark-ed 5A-capable one, unlike the plain 3A cable of the Razr 2025. The Razr+ 2025's bundle doesn't include any form of protection, which was also our experience with the non-plus. North American models seem to be treated this way, while the rest of the world typically gets two-piece snap-on covers. Page 2

Samsung faces a deadline to choose which processor will power the Galaxy S26 and Galaxy S26+

There is a lot of pressure on Samsung to design a more than merely capable Exynos 2600 application processor (AP). After all, the company is looking to deploy a homegrown Exynos SoC inside next year's Galaxy S26 and Galaxy S26 + flagship models in the vast majority of markets. Due to yield issues at Samsung Foundry, during the last two years Samsung had to dig deep into its pockets and pay more to equip all of its flagship series phones with the latest Snapdragon chipsets instead of using its own Exynos APs. Samsung had to pay $400 million to use the Snapdragon 8 Elite AP across the entire Galaxy S25 lineup. | Image credit-Qualcomm The reason that yield is so important is that the figure is a percentage showing how many usable dies have been created against the maximum number that can be diced from a silicon wafer. Samsung Foundry was rumored to have a 30% yield for production using the same process node earmarked for the Exynos 2500. A low yield increases the number of defective dies and decreases the number of usable ones. As a result, not only does the price for working chips rise, at a yield of 30% it was possible that Samsung would not be able to build enough chips to cover the amount it needed. Samsung reportedly started manufacturing a prototype of the Exynos 2600 AP and the results of the chipset's first Geekbench run through was impressive with a single-core score of 2400 and a multi-core tally of 10200. The impressive part was that the multi-core score topped that of the A18 Pro. We should point out that the latter chipset, used to power the iPhone 16 Pro and iPhone 16 Pro Max, is built by TSMC using its second-generation 3nm node; the Exynos 2600 is produced using Samsung Foundry's 2nm node which uses Gate-All-Around (GAA) transistors that reduce current leaks and improve the drive current producing improved performance and energy efficiency. Also, to make this a fair comparison, the Exynos 2600 AP's benchmark scores should be compared with those of the yet to be released A19 Pro. That chipset will be built by TSMC using its third-generation 3nm process node and will debut later this year on the iPhone 17 Pro and iPhone 17 Pro Max. Another point to consider is that tweet from tipster @OreXda doesn't mention the efficiency of the Exynos 2600. As a result, it is a possibility that in order to achieve the high mjlti-core benchmark results, the chipset had to use an unrealistic amount of power, certainly more than the component will be fed if used to drive the Galaxy S26 line when the phones are released during Q1 next year. An interesting change in the configuration of the Exynos 2600 AP was mentioned by @OreXda. Originally designed with 10 cores (giving it the "decacore" designation), the tipster says that the Exynos 2600 will feature two Cortex Prime "X" CPU cores along with six Cortex-A cores. That would make the Exynos 2600 an octa-core AP. If Samsung Foundry doesn't improve its yield, Samsung would have to consider using the Snapdragon 8 Elite 2 for Galaxy to power all of the models in the flagship series with Qualcomm's flagship processor. The phones won't be released until next January or February but because of lead times, Samsung will have to decide by the end of this year whether yields are sufficient (60%-70% and higher is required) to allow Samsung Foundry to manufacture enough Exynos 2600 SoCs to power the Galaxy S26 and Galaxy S26 + units in all markets other than the U.S., China, and Canada. In those countries, the Galaxy S26 and Galaxy S26 + will be powered by the Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Elite 2 for Galaxy AP. The top-of-the-line Galaxy S26 Ultra will sport the Qualcomm SoC in all markets. Secure your connection now at a bargain price!
