I have a Sony bluetooth headset and it's amazing. It was around €65, lasts 40 hours of use (so charge once a week- every 2-3 weeks depending on usage), pairs with 3 devices and does it very well. I often move to another floor while having them on (construction work) or go out to the shed while the iPhone is in the bedroom on a charger, and it still works 10 meters in the yard. Best thing I've ever purchased, so there are good Bluetooth solutions.

If the device it was connected to last is available, it will reconnect to that.
To connect to a different one, hold the button longer and press connect on the other device.
I use it on my iPhone, Android tablet and Windows 10 PC

what do you mean by "pairs with 3 devices and does it very well"
So I have an iPad, macbook, and iPhone in my room all turned on at the same time. All with bluetooth on. All have been paired with the speaker.
I now turn on the bluetooth speaker.
How does it decide which device to connect to? Amazingly, it is always the wrong one. Every single time.
It gets wonky if that single speaker has paired with multiple devices before. For example in a home, where you've paired it with your laptop, phone, iPad, etc. Try it out. Audio will cut off sometimes suddenly when it decides to switch pairing partners as another paired device appears in range.
