What model? I was shipped an Oryx Pro for work and it's given me exactly zero problems in 11 months. I've got a wireless USB mouse, wireless USB keyboard, USB smart card reader plugged in through a hub, and an external monitor connected via HDMI in extend the screen mode. Even with an NVIDIA discrete GPU, every single thing has worked plug and play on the first try. I use a bluetooth headset for all meetings and it also works perfectly fine, paired in exactly the same way as it does on any other platform. The Linux bluez stack definitely supports headphones.
Ironically, the only gotcha moment I have ever had was when plugging my iPhone in to charge it, I kept noticing my network connection would get wonky, and I eventually realized Apple puts code injection into its USB cables that include a setting to automatically tether a device an iPhone get plugged into to use Ethernet over USB, so I was being disconnected from my WiFi access point and then being tethered through the iPhone back to the same WiFi access point, except mediated through the iPhone as a relay. Yet another user-hostile, annoying on by default Apple setting I had to discover by accident and then turn off.
- istingray 5y agoIt's a Linux + bluetooth problem, not a computer vendor problem. Bluetooth microphones are basically impossible to get working on Linux. That's what I was told by vendor support as well, just get a wired mic as bluetooth headphones+mic are unreliable. I was attempting to use Sony XM3s. Glad to hear you have some headphones that work, what model?
