Is it just me, or is Bluetooth flippin useless?

Never had such a problem.

Either the headset, phone, laptop, or OP is defective.

Sounds like either user error, or your laptop has a shitty bluetooth stack installed.

My bluetooth keyboard and mouse work perfectly ever time I use them...and I have no issues with the bluetooth in my wife's car (or my old vehicle...current does not have bluetooth).
