I am someone who A) likes control over my audio and, B) doesn't like vague descriptions. Right now UHQ Upscaler unfortunately both turns itself on any time UHQ itself is turned on, and doesn't really give any description on what it's actually doing. 

I know the Buds 3 aren't exactly audiophile headphones, but I've been using Tidal with them a fair bit recently and enjoying the quality with the buds 3. But the Upscaler confuses me, is it trying to upscale music that's already far past the 96 kHz sample rate? Is that draining battery being on? So I turned it off just so it wouldn't do anything, but I keep finding that it's turned itself back on. 

My actual suggestion is for an info button to be added with some clarity, and for this option to remember its last state. For the info, some clarity about what it does and what sample rate of music it does or doesn't affect. (i.e. "This affects any music at or below 44.1 kHz sample rate" or something like that.)

I'd just like it to be more than a button that somehow magically makes audio sound better (which is slightly noticeable sometimes, but especially when streaming already high sample rate music is completely unnoticeable in my experience.)

I don't think it's for the music itself, it's the quality of the audio being SENT to the Buds. I believe older Buds had lower quality audio sent to them. I noticed an IMMEDIATE improvement when enabling this on my Buds 3 Pro.
