I use Bluetooth all the time for speakers and headsets, also the PlayStation 3 controller was Bluetooth, so would that not mean AI will be a top of the line tool in 2 years? I personally don't use it for anything at the moment, but in 2003 Plantronics released Bluetooth headsets for corporate environments (IP phones usually still used to this day).
Seems like more of a we aren't sure where this tool is most useful yet, but it will be used by many people around us.
That's very fair. I don't like how unpredictable Bluetooth is when you have multiple peripherals and multiple hosts paired to eachother and all within range of eachother.
Say what you want about bluetooth, but I'm amazed by the battery life of those devices
Having two pairs of AirBudz, one AirBudz pro, and an Anker speaker attached via BT to my phone and all of them function exactly when I want perfectly… Bluetooth works amazingly.
You never have audio coming out of a device you didn't expect?
Nope! The budz only produce audio when they’re in my ears or my partner’s. I can select to mirror audio to both of us at the same time when we’re exercising. The speaker only works when I turn it on, but it connects immediately every time. I suppose I forgot about my car, which works but has a delay cuz the infotainment system kinda sucks.
