I have airpods and although the _initial_ sync is magical, it's just like every other set of bluetooth headphones when you've got more than 1 device to choose from. If I have my macbook and phone side by side and put in my airpods, they always connect to the phone. I have to go to the mac's bluetooth menu to choose airpods if I want to listen from my mac (icloud sync doesn't seem to work).

- 1123581321 9y agoI see. I think I would like it if they could play all audio from all devices at once. Similarly, it would be nice to control phone audio with the Mac volume and pause keys while using AirPods. I didn’t expect any of that, though.
- Domenic_S 9y agoThey don't show up there. I've deleted them and re-paired, but they never have. I also have Beats with the W1 chip, and they don't show up there either.
- canuckintime 9y agoMany other Bluetooth headphones have a variation of a feature called 'multipoint' which allows you to be connected to both devices at once so you don't have to choose and switch choices each time
