| Description | The 3GA format is an audio file format primarily associated with Samsung mobile devices. It is a variant of the 3GP (Third Generation Partnership Project) format, typically used for storing audio recordings captured on Samsung smartphones or other devices. 3GA files usually contain audio data encoded using codecs such as Adaptive Multi-Rate (AMR) or Advanced Audio Coding (AAC). These files are commonly used for recording voice memos, interviews, or other audio content on mobile devices. While 3GA files are compatible with Samsung devices and certain media players, they may require conversion to more widely supported formats like MP3 or WAV for playback on other devices or software applications. |
| Technical details | 3GA files typically contain audio data encoded using the Advanced Audio Coding (AAC) codec. AAC is a lossy audio compression format known for its high-quality sound reproduction at relatively low bitrates. |
