I am not sure what you mean by "better".

OpenSL ES is an audio API added way back in android 2.3 but it was significantly improved in android 4.3.

While AAudio is a pure native API designed for high performance applications (that require low latency). It was added in Android 8. It's great for high performance applications but for media players, it is almost the same as AudioTrack (as Max said).

 

The latter API allows Float32 output format and high sample rate (Hi-res) which OpenSL ES lacks in Poweramp.

Ah I see,  thanks for the explanation

Is AAudio's way better than OpenSl ES?
