I agree with Chris. I currently have five different devices, and none of them has any lag with typing, etc. This did used to be a big problem, but I think it is the devices that have improved and not Apple because if you go back to an older device it will suffer the same lag time.

Maybe Allen doesn't notice it the way he uses his phone, but it is present and one of the reasons why I don't like to use Bluetooth earpieces or headsets if I really have to navigate and type a lot. I just invested a fair bit in both a new Bluetooth stereo headset (the Plantronics Backbeat Sense) and a Bluetooth earpiece (the Plantronics Voyager Edge) and I am curious how much better (or not) the lag is with these new Bluetooth 4.0 devices. Anyhow, mostly I use the earpiece when I'm walking and want to hear the GPS or take a phone call and the stereo headset I would use mostly at home when I'm doing stuff around the house and just want to listen to an audio book or music in good quality and maybe also take the occasional phone call. > > > Regards, > Sieghard > > -----Original Message----- > From: viphone@googlegroups.com [mailto:viphone@googlegroups.com] On Behalf Of Kayaker > Sent: Sunday, April 17, 2016 2:30 PM > To: viphone@googlegroups.com > Subject: Re: bluetooth headset recommendations > > Hi, Allen, > > I’m giving you a friendly I don’t believe you.
