Abstract
Methods for communicating audio and voice signals as well as hearable devices therefor are disclosed. A disclosed method includes creating an audio and voice Bluetooth communication link between a computing device and a hearable device. The audio and voice Bluetooth communication link includes a downlink and an uplink. The method further includes configuring the downlink with a downlink audio codec and the uplink with an uplink voice codec and receiving, by the hearable device through the downlink, a channel of a downlink audio signal from the computing device. The channel is encoded with the downlink audio codec. The method further includes transmitting, to the computing device, an uplink voice signal by the hearable device through the uplink. The uplink voice signal is encoded with the uplink voice codec.
