    Theres a massive issue with bluetooth: It does not have enough bandwidth to support a discord call and the game audio. When on a discord call, it drops the quality of the game audi as it shows the mic-speaker paid a handset allocated to "Default communications device" and if the mic usage is off, it switches to "Default Device" and there is clear and true sounding audio. Can you test for this with and without the 2.4ghz dongle, and latencies ingame?
    Can you do that test with this, and the 2.4ghz dongle?

      Thats what the dongle is for, it offloads the input stream to be handled by software through the Asus audio drivers that support this headset. It's not using bluetooth at all, it's using a type of adhoc wifi network dedicated to the dongle and nothing else.

    I will say that I do still want a nice solid pair of wireless gaming buds because I don't always want a headset on my head. I'm waiting to see if I can get the inzones at a steal of a price through Amazon Renewed. I may add these to that list too.

    I just plugged the dongle in the back where you plug the charger on the case it's actually pretty secure and mine hasn't fucked up yet I throw mine in a bag it's actually dropped quite a few times with the dongle plugged into the back it won't fry it because power goes into it doesn't come out and yeah besides that I love them they're great they're awesome for gaming and the bass sounds really good it's actually just perfect I think and in armory crate there's a quite a bit of settings a good selection I would say to set it up the way u like it or to what You're listening to and by the way good video i enjoyed watching it Also sorry for the word salad i'm u Also one thing you gotta remember everybody's hearing is different I noticed you know so this sum it might sound OK to others this will sound great I get that a lot
