Topic: Bluetooth Adio causes Input Lag

I have a really noticable Input Lag with my Controllers when i use my Bluetooth Headphones.

Does somebody else?

Edit:
But it seems not be there every Time.
Strangely. Haven't changed anything.

I would recommend using bluetooth audio mostly with handheld play. When playing with the joycon attached/on the lite.

Having audio and controllers at the same time seems to cause problems.

@Azuris I haven't try'd it yet, as I use handheld when I use bluetooth, But have you try plugging the controller in? maybe it will help?

Bluetooth is just laggy. It was never intended to be used for gaming. Listening to music is different, as you don’t notice the lag. Gaming though… you’d need the very latest codecs of the very latest Bluetooth version and even then you’d be battling 50 ms lag.

Get a headset with dedicated wireless dongle. Or better yet, go wired. Sennheiser 560S is probably the best headphones you can buy under $200 imo.

@Eel
it really seems that the Bluetooth Device of the Switch isn't as great.
No Wonder they waited so longt to implement it.
I remember those News Controllers losing their Synchroniation back then, maybe no coincidence

@JaxonH @Snatcher
Problem is, the Switch and the TV are more than two Meters away, my Intention was to not have such a long cable

But seems that i have to get one.
My Sony TV only Supports a special Kind of Bluetooth Headsets and i don't to buy another pair only because they make such strange Decisions (we have 3 in this Household).

The Bedroom is next to the living Room, can't watch or play on the TV when my Girlfriend is going to Bed.
Thats why it came Handy that they now support Bluetooth

@Azuris since no one knows what model of BT you have asking for help is going to be lossless as no one can diagnosis the problem.

Austin John did a decent job covering bluetooth audio weaknesses, I thought. He covers the lag, but also shows what setup worked best.

Yeah, It is more evident with rhythm games, I played Crypt of the Necrodancer and I often miss the beat by a few milliseconds... but I'm pretty sure there's a sort of delay with using BT audio as against speakers itself...
