"Airpods (when connected to iPhones or iPads) have very low latency, not detectable by humans. " "Linux bluetooth is hahahahaha sorry I forgot what I was going to say." Makes me seriously doubt any other latency measurement done by him. The AirPods (even when connected to an iPhone) are said to have a latency of around 250ms [1] with the Pros having around half of that, 120ms. This makes both of them terrible as far as wireless headsets go. Even within Bluetooth headsets, the original AirPods are absolutely terrible, with the Pro now being in a much better position, but still nowhere near "low latency". No surprises, since AAC is nowhere near a low-latency codec (this is not AAC-LD, it is plain old AAC-LC). The latency actually _improves_ when connected to BlueZ [my experience], likely because SBC is actually a much better codec when properly configured, something that few Bluetooth stacks do [2].

Still I would say most likely not noticeable in a meeting room environment, except for one-person videoconference.
