It'd be nice if something was done about the extra 100-200ms (!!) of latency that Bluetooth headsets can add[1]. I understand this is largely a problem from the manufacturer problem, but I'd love to see Google lead the way with some sort of certification program, or even make their own low cost BT chipset for 3rd party headphones to use, to improve the situation.

Of course Android is already world's better than desktop, where 200ms is seemingly closer to average than an outlier.

It is also kind of cool that perusing that chart, it seems headsets connected to Android have, on average, lower latency than when connected to iOS!
