[Electronics-Talk] Good bluetooth earphones for every day use

[Lori Motis]

Are you looking for an ear piece that you can use for both your Mac
and phone at the same time? Some of the single ear pieces will say if
you can do this. Otherwise you might want to have a bone conduction
for your Mac and a separate single ear piece for your phone. Also,
most bone conduction headsets can be heard by others while in use.
