Is it possible, if using an android phone and a surface book to connect the earbuds similitaniously to each of those devices?

Having the surface audio app installed on both devices, it's still hard to quickly change audio between the phone and the laptop.

    Microsoft,

    Frankly, I feel in love with the quality of these buds and the sounds they produce. The controls and the feel of them and especially how they lock in the ears with that twist is phenomenal. With such a great product why do we have this limitation of 1 active device at a time.

    I connected these buds to Surface Laptop and my Samsung Galaxy S10. But shuffling between these two devices is a pain. Please fix this so I can recommend these great buds to others.

    I have the same question....Come on Microsoft, we know you can do it so lets just do it.

    I will say, other than that they seem great so far.

    When can you have this fixed? Should be an easy software fix. I need to be able to switch seamlessly between my Win10 PC and my Android phone..otherwise i will have to return these.

    Hi,

    oh man. I ordered the Surface Earbuds just a few days ago and now becoming aware of problems I hoped to solve with this new device. Not being able to switch between multiple devices is really a pain and it is a tie breaker for me as well. I actually don't need it to be have multiple established connections at the same time but it needs to be easy to tell it to connect to a different device easily. Like a gesture which iterates through all paired devices in order to try to establish a connection.

    I really hope that this gets introduced before I receive my devices.

    Take care!

    Alex

    That's too bad. That's a deal breaker. I cant recommend these to any of my users. Multipoint has been a part of Bluetooth for 10 years. We will have to stick to Jabra earbuds for now.
