Hello all

As odd as it may seem I still use a wired pair of EarPods for calls. For my iPhone X I had an Lightning-3,5mm adapter but for my 16 Pro I have bought this Ugreen Car adapter with BT5.3.

The audio quality is OK (not great), the connection to the phone is stable and battery life is excellent. The one thing that doesn't work is the EarPods's microphone. The adapter defaults to its own little microphone which means that it's pretty useless for handsfree calling.

So the hunt continues — does anyone know of similar BT adapters that actually work with microphones on wired earphones?

Cheers
Philip
