Next iPhone Could Bring Dual Bluetooth Audio Connection Support

I thought we would have dual BT headphone support in all BT5.0 Apple devices by now. E.g. from the ATV4, kids sleeping and we wanting to enjoy full audio with wifey - still no go. Or when sharing a large iPad Pro with wifey while flying. Dual BT audio should be fully possible with BT5 already now, no? Only a software development away...

Apple copying Sony!!!
Original walkman had 2 headphone jacks, thinking people want to listen together, then went on with 1.

Can we talk about how good MacRumors' renders look, regardless of people saying the phone will be ugly with the triple lens camera.

If it brought USB C support too, It'd be an insta-buy for me! (Not bloody likely.)

Long nights at Apple R&D to come up with this high level of innovation

And why would I play music in my ears and blast navigation directions to the car audio. I would obviously do it the other way around?

All part of the great upgrade roadmap. ie. Spread features out across as many hardware iterations as you can get away with to maximize profit. Gotta keep people wanting to upgrade every cycle.

This and two new colors for XR are the biggest new "features" so far. Great.

Here's a crazy thought. Buying something else has more impact than complaining on an internet forum.

Complaining about product faults or deficiencies, reinforced by taking one's business elsewhere, accomplishes two things - you let the company and its customers know the issues at hand, and by example let them know what you are doing about it. How the company or its current customers react is now in their courts - you've done all that you, as a now former customer, can do. My observation is that by complaining about legitimate problems one is having with a product, fellow customers will either react like you and wish the complainer would just be quiet, or they might just possibly use your complaint as a source of information influencing their purchase decision in the future. One of the main reasons I pay attention to forums like this is to gather evidence, both from the company and from its customers, about my future product decisions. For example, there is no way I'm going to plunk down several thousand dollars on the MBP's of the last few years. There have been sufficient complaints about faulty keyboards, faulty displays, expensive repairs, and cooling problems to deter my buying these laptops. The result is that Apple has lost my business with laptops produced since 2016. That alone won't deter Apple in product design and support, but if enough folks do as I have done, perhaps at least some small change might be effected. It comes down to the bottom line, and Apple won't budge until profits decline to a critical threshold. That takes time. I personally am thankful that there are forums like this one, which though focused on Apple products, allow both positive and negative feedback to flourish. For consistent positive commentary, go to forums under Apple's sole control such as "discussions.apple.com", where folks like Jessa Jones have been booted for questioning the company line on repair of iOS devices.

Finally. Technically this has been doable on BT for years. It's an obvious usage that people have been doing with wired headphones for decades. I listen to music with my gf every day with headphones and a splitter.
