Snapcast – Synchronous multi-room audio player

I use both AirPods and Powerbeats Pro with my iPhone, Watch, AppleTV and MacBook Pro. Most of the issues are when I am switching between the devices. Admittedly, this is something ordinary bluetooth headphones would not be able to do at all or be extraordinarily difficult pairing/repairing across devices. So I give latitude to connectivity in these scenarios. But when they fail to switch or when AppleWatch fails to connect, it is a pain to "solve".

I’ve had to replace two pairs of AirPods for connectivity issues. The Apple store didn’t even question when I asked for a replacement pair - just a silent acknowledgment that there can be issues with phone calling and the AirPods can’t be repaired.

I have a pair of Sony Bluetooth headphones and they were paired across several devices without any difficulty. And not just my phone and laptop either. My kids borrow them a lot.

I have had great experiences across multiple Sony BT products.
