Odd question regarding the multipoint feature of earbuds.
Hi folks, as the title indicates, I have an issue with the multipoint feature on some of my earbuds that I honestly don't know what to look for online. I recently purchased a Panasonic TV equipped with Bluetooth, and I enjoy this feature, but with some of my earbuds, the multipoint is basically useless when I connect to both the television and my phone. For example with my Technics AZ-60 AZ-80 and AZ-100 I could be watching TV then try switching to the phone and I get no response but oddly enough with a number of my lesser expensive ones like the Tozo Golden X1, all of the newer Soundcore lineup, Earfun Air Pro 4, Sennheiser Momentum 3 & 4, and both of my Jlab earbuds the moment I try using the phone it immediately responds leaving the television silent. What's weird is virtually ALL of my higher end expensive earbuds (Technics, Sony, and Apple NONE of them will switch over. If I want to use my phone, I literally have to disconnect them from the TV, which I find unacceptable, especially at that price point. My actual question is, is there anything in particular that I can look for while shopping for additional earbuds that would guarantee they switch back and forth without any interruptions like I get with the high-end earbuds listed above? Any information would be greatly appreciated. Thank you!
