Yeah, but can it do Stereo Audio AND a mic channel at the same time?

If it can't, in 2025...fuck off.

This simple feature, is the reason why "gaming" headsets are still >$200

Isocronous Channels. It's been in the spec since 5.1 - 5.2. It's the same as with auracast. The spec can already do it, but no vendors are implementing it.

That is for bluetooth multicasting to multiple devices. Not stereo audio with mic channel. They STILL artificially limit you to EITHER Stereo Audio OR Mono Audio and a Mic.
