yeah i agggggggggggggggggggree

Getting bluetooth audio devices that don't have a whole second of delay feels like winning the lottery. I have bluetooth earbuds that have nasty unusable delay, but bluetooth over-ear headphones that have basically none. Both Sony, released in the same year. No idea how or why they got it so different between the two

I have a Bluetooth Lenovo mouse that randomly crashes and resets instead of left clicking and I was so pissed off I got a USB Lenovo mouse that also randomly doesn't left click. I think I get why people preferred IBM's Thinkpad. You could say it clicked.

My Mx Master 2S has been pretty darn good. Its BTLE is fast at connecting/switching hosts, and its latency is acceptable. Bluetooth Classic was hoooorible for mice, and it is sometimes acceptable for keyboards. I think Logitech finally just came out with a BTLE keyboard, in the YOOL 2003Q3.

Gosh I wish that some (any) BT stack would treat a lack of communication with a keyboard as meaning "no we should not start autorepeeeeeeeeating keys yet".

it's a bad scene

(then there are confusing outliers like the DualShock 4 that is said to have among the lowest latency of common controllers, wired or not)

Yeahhhhhhh lmao just the other day my Bluetooth controller decided to start re-enumerating ITSELF every five seconds, so not only can I not use, add, or remove Bluetooth devices, but my device manager would constantly refresh in an infinite loop until I managed to right-click on the bastard fast enough and disable him. Now I just… don’t have Bluetooth.

I recently got a new wireless gamepad with a 2.4ghz wireless dongle just because everything else that used Bluetooth would end up just getting plugged in with how inconsistent connecting to it could be
