I'm pretty sure the crappyness you're experiencing is software related.

I've got a lot of tech, bt stuff everywhere and the ones that work the best have the best switching software.

one of the most solid pieces of bt management software is in the Samsung necklace headphones.

these things flawlessly switch between devices, rarely ever skip much less drop a signal.

they're now about 30 bucks, crappy physical design makes them too uncomfortable sadly.

compare with a set of headphones with supposed latency software built in, avantree makes a set of these headphones.

avantree couldn't code themselves out of a wet paper bag, so they ruined a perfectly great pair of headphones because they hired some random company who doesn't know bt programming and so those headphones are great for about 15 minutes and then memory leak or something and they start sucking like all the other bt devices with crappy software.

IMO bt sucks because people can't code and there isn't a OSS client software bt solution that fixes it, so far. and getting Samsung to hook it up with their headphone code base is probably not gonna happen.
