How many people are using Bluetooth with their computers? Most wireless keyboards/mice usually include their own receivers which plug into a port. And 3.5mm audio jacks are still a thing on the think pad, so you can get a cheaper, higher quality headset for this device which unlike Bluetooth ones does not run out of power every couple of hours.

> How many people are using Bluetooth with their computers? No idea about the numbers, but my n=1 uses Bluetooth a lot. I use my Airpods Pro on my laptop all the time, for calls and music and watching videos with others in the room, the noise cancelling is really good and I don't have to drain my phone battery as much. I really like the Magic Mouse, which is Bluetooth as well, and I have a keyboard with 3 Bluetooth IDs that I can switch back and forth between my phone, gaming PC and laptop with a single keypress, and I use that a lot and would use it even more if it could handle five devices instead of three. Apart from that, I have a stationary bluetooth speaker I often stream music to from my laptop to conserve my phone battery, and, finally, one of my electronics projects that I never seem to get around to finishing is a lipo-powered glove-shaped bluetooth midi controller. Macbooks do retain their 3.5mm jacks, but I hate that I have to be mindful of the cable (i.e. can't move around the room), and good wired headphones tend to be bulkier. I don't really mind a 10-15 minutes charging break every couple of hours, and sound quality and noise cancelling are really good for my standards.
