Hi Michael, There is more to bluetooth lag than the version of bluetooth. First of all, you may not percieve any lag with some of your devices the way you use it, but the lag is there in all bluetooth devices. Secondly, I can say from my own experience that I have had a Plantronics relatively high-end stereo headset which used Bluetooth 4.1 and it had absolutely horrible lag whereas I have a bluetooth speakerphone (I think it's a Philipps or Logitech) and it is Bluetooth 2.1 and there is almost no lag. Bluetooth is up to 4.2 and Bluetooth 5.0 is rolling out, maybe some day they'll figure it out, but for now there always is some lag and from some of the early reviews of the Apple Airpods or some of the new Beats headsets which probably are the most advanced bluetooth earbuds/headsets out there the lag still exists a little bit as well.

One thing to really be careful of when choosing headsets is to make certain they use the latest possible Bluetooth version. The Titaniums use 4.1 and I don't experience any lag whatsoever with Voiceover use. Same with my new Aukey speaker. I made damned certain it used 4.1 and there's no lag. My Logitech UE Boomb sits unused despite being durrable, having a great super battery and sounding great due to the annoying lag. It uses version 4 of Bluetooth.
