but can you switch between two devices without having to turn off/turn on the devices?
Yes, you can. If you check out the link I previously posted, there are instructions for enabling multi-point pairing. Once two devices are paired, they cannot both transmit audio at the same time, but when one isn't being used, the other will be. This might sound like a stupid question, but when you listen to music, books or just a screen reader using this headset, can other people hear what you're listening to when they are close; on the bus/train for example? The question is not stupid. If you are in a very quiet environment, there will be some sound leakage, but not much at all. On a bus or train, there isn't really any sound leakage. I wear these in the office, and people around me can't hear anything. Please, where can I hear how the microphone sounds? I demonstrated these on a podcast episode a few months ago. The easiest way to get to the content is to check out the YouTube video, and to skip to about 31 minutes into the video, as the first part of the video is dedicated to the Samsung S21 Ultra. The link to the YouTube version is at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BFKo_RiUUcc On Fri, Nov 5, 2021 at 4:08 PM Mária Orovčíková <maria.orovcik...@gmail.com> wrote: > Hello again, > thank you very much for your replies. > Nimer, you said that the OpenComm headset support multipoint pairing, > but can you switch between two devices without having to turn off/turn > on the devices? > This might sound like a stupid question, but when you listen to music, > books or just a screen reader using this headset, can other people hear > what you're listening to when they are close; on the bus/train for example? > Please, where can I hear how the microphone sounds? > Thanks. > Maria > > Dňa 5. 11. 2021 o 22:57 Nimer Jaber napísal(a): > > Hello Cristóbal, > > > > I am surprised to hear you say this about the OpenComm.
