So this manual transfer thing is so weak. I was writing a review for the AirPods originally and going to give them a 5 star rating based on my first 24 hours use. But once I got to work trying to use them with all this manually connecting and such I’m deducting 2.5 stars until they install multipoint support and join the 21st century with everyone else. Literally every other bluetooth headset does this better than Apple. That’s such a poor performance. As someone said though I forget it if it was you or not it’s the first run at the product. Multipoint or something better may be in the works so I will hold out for a while . It’s to bad to because they are so great in absolutely every other way.
