    I just want a headset that doesn’t descend into hissing at me in mono over a crackly 1940s phoneline whenever I dare to use the microphone.

      Check what BT profile your OS is switching the headset to (and what your headset can actually support). I use HSP/HFP with mSBC codec and it keeps pretty OK sound while in “headset mode”

      I have some B&W Px2s and they’re fine when using the microphone, although the sound quality is the main selling point.

      Any of the AirPods that go in your ear have exceptional microphone quality.

      I find it hard to believe every pair of headphones you’ve ever tried has been trash, unless you’re just buying trash quality and expecting amazing hardware.

      Both of my Galaxy Buds sporadically losing signal when I have my phone in a pocket.
