[SOLVED] Need a decent pair of Bluetooth Headphones for TV

[bamitscon]

Can anyone recommend a decent pair of Bluetooth Headphones which will connect to a TV and a Tablet, fairly low priced between £30/60.

TaoTronics TT-BH090 or an Mpow one, Anker also has some cheaper models. In that price range they are all about the same quality.

They are mainly going to be used for in the living room when watching TV. So needs to be able to Bluetooth connect to the smart TV, and have a decent sound cancellation and audio

I have not tried the myself, just going by brand reputation and review recommendations. Any of the closed headphones will block sound decently, without active noise cancelation, but you won't find anything good with active for this cheap. Anker or TaoTronics would be my pick for the cheaper models.

How sensitive are you to lip sync issues? I’m yet to find a Bluetooth headset that doesn’t have some lip sync issue when used with video. How much delay will depend on which Codec is used.

The low latency ones with aptx (on both transmitter and receiver) are not bad. But I should have mentioned that in the replies to watch out for this.

So look out for headphones that say low latency and aptx?

Yes, and the bluetooth transmitter has to have the same features.

Oh I need a transmitter? The Samsung tv that the headset will be pairing to will already have Bluetooth built in?

Not if what you are using already has bluetooth, but if it's not low latency you will have noticeable delay for the audio.

How do i go about finding low latency headphones now, i was looking at buying the :
https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B07NM3RSRQ/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_fabc_.3BSFbQ625BEK
but i dont know if they will be low latency and if they are only suitable for music. i need them for mainly TV and video watching use.
was wondering if any headphones would go down in price that are quite good for Black friday/cyber monday but im not sure which.

So basically need a decent pair of headphones worth around £50 which supports 5.0 Bluetooth and has APTX, maybe something a little more expensive which will get reduced on black friday.

Bluetooth 5 has better latency than older revisions, but same thing goes for that and APTX, both the transmitter and receiver has to match for low latency, you can't just have one side be faster. https://www.reviewgeek.com/38434/why-do-bluetooth-headphones-lag-while-watching-video-or-gaming/
