Citation needed. Have you actually used Bluetooth headsets? Unless the phone has unimpeded LOS to the headset, expect the sound to drop samples, or introduce static, or otherwise be shitty and horrible.
Have your phone in a pocket on the other side of your body from where your headphones' antenna is? Enjoy shit audio.
Did someone turn on a microwave in the same area code? Enjoy shit audio.
Did you run by a new Wi-Fi network? You get the idea.
- r721 10y agoAdditional problems: 1. Hassle with batteries 2. I'm not really sure but from quick research it seems most of wireless headphones still use lossy codecs for signal transmission.
- rufius 10y agoI think you're right regarding codecs. Either way, not enough to convince me to carry one around due to my own experience.
- zepto 10y agoThis is FUD. I have a pair of jabra revo Bluetooth headphones and absolutely never experience any of the problems you raise here.
