Bluetooth works great for me (good enough quality, no stuttering) - what kills it is latency. Latency makes watching videos very uncomfortable. There's also faint static in nearly every pair of bluetooth earbuds I've tried (and not just cheap ones, $100+ ones do this too).
- loeber 9y agoHave you considered that the problem (static, etc.) might not be on part of the bluetooth earphones, but rather on your phone's bluetooth hardware? I use an iPhone with bluetooth earphones all day and it's a great experience.
- ReverseCold 9y agoThe ones I currently use have the same issues on both MBP and Nexus 5X, so I doubt it.
- kbyatnal 9y agoI haven't had any of those problems with the AirPods. No static, no latency. There's some issues with reliably connecting though.
- ClassyJacket 9y agoI had barely any issues with Airpods on iOS 10, but iOS 11 absolutely made them terrible. Constant stuttering, disconnecting randomly, falling to connect. Shame. I'll be moving to an Android now.
- dpkonofa 9y agoNo issues here connecting at all with the AirPods. iPhone 7, Apple Watch, iPad, Nexus 5X, and even my old Nexus tablet all work beautifully.
- iaml 9y agoThe only issue I have w/ airpods on iphone 6 is stuttering when walking away from subway. What's up with that?
- enraged_camel 9y agoThe problem I have with bluetooth is that it's a noticeable drain on battery. That's why I keep mine off all the time and avoid bluetooth devices.
