I'm no expert, but getting Bluetooth wireless phones and.or buds to work
with sufficiently low latency is (based on my limited
experience/research) dependent upon BOTH the BT version/capability
(hardware AND software) in BOTH the phones/buds AND the BT
receiver/transmitter in your device (laptop/desktop, et al).
I DO know that even my very nice and up to date Jaybird earbuds which
are awesome for music, et al. do not work with sufficiently low latency
on my Dell E6540 Laptop with the Intel Wireless AC and Bluetooth card I
am using.... I suspect it is a problem with the BT implementation used
by the slightly long in the tooth Intel BT card...

Looking through the archive, I didn’t find much info about what units people
are using. I did, however, notice several caveats about the latency of
Bluetooth headphones, especially for CW.
It looks like there are now several BT headphones on the market that claim to
have low latency, which may or may not be suitable for amateur radio use. Of
course, an external BT transmitter would have to be plugged into the rig’s
headphone jack.
One item that looks promising is the Avantree unit:

Has anyone tried this or something similar?
