I had at least hoped for FastStream. (Essentially bidirectional SBC for good quality audio while using the microphone)

I mean even Sony didn’t get it working on my XM4s, I don’t know why people expect it from $150 earbuds.

Hang on, is THAT why call quality is abysmal with practically every bluetooth device?

Yes. and why it’s wildly complicated on Windows machines where you have an audio output device for headphones and for headset, and once something starts using the mic the output device itself changes.

So joining team chat in a game will either make audio sound horrible or break it entirely if you had specified the output device instead of using default device.

How in the fuck is bluetooth even a competing standard? If it’s “good enough” than so is SD video and VHS tapes.

Bluetooth turns twenty-six this year, maybe we’ll be closer to good integration once it hits it’s thirties.
