Best hack I've come up with when I have to use Bluetooth headsets on calls is to use them unidirectionally by selecting my MacBook microphone as input (try option click on volume control in menu bar).
(... but mostly I go wired most of the time).
- carstenhag 3y agoYep, this is also what u do. On top of that, the MacBook mics are way better than any earbud mic.
- Pxtl 3y agoJust get a wireless headset that uses a USB dongle. It's archaic but it works. I can't stand to be tethered to my desk when I talk. It's annoying and silly how I have a BT headset and a USB-wireless headset on my desk at the same time and I switch depending on whether the call is coming over the phone or the PC, and theoretically I could get one device that does both with a switch (eg. my wife has a Logitech one that does that) but this approach works for me. I've literally gotten a compliment or two on how great the audio is when I'm doing remote presentations, but maybe that's because I often privately grouse about people who are using awful mic setups and so somebody was watching for that. I'm not using anything fancy, I just buy upper-mid-range gaming headsets (the $150US-ish ones that are good-enough that they don't cover them in neon plastic and LED lighting).
