Tbh it's kind of strange that it's 2021 and we still can't have good quality bidirectional audio over bluetooth.
WHY?
- ChrisMarshallNY 6y agoMostly because of the need to keep BT a low-energy medium. Bluetooth was designed for embedded devices that need to conserve power. That said, I know that there's active work going on, to improve this exact thing. Might be a while before we see video over BT, though.

- ChrisMarshallNY 6y agoThe nice thing about BT (in particular, BTLE), is the “light-touch” pairing. A lot simpler than most WiFi connections. Apple has a system that basically combines all of the available connection options, so it can appear as if BT is being used, but it’s really WiFi. Not sure if this type of “zero config” stuff is available in non-proprietary form, though.
