I swap between my phone and laptop a lot. When I turn on my Bose QC35ii, they automatically pair to both devices. To swap between them, I just hit pause on my laptop and hit play on my phone and the transition is seamless.

With the XM3s, I have to turn off bluetooth on my phone before I can connect to my laptop. Then I have to switch off bluetooth on my laptop and reenable bluetooth on my phone and manually hit connect before I can switch back.

This is terribly slow and completely unusable. A $15 pair of bluetooth earbuds can do this with no problem.

I plan to return the headphones unless this is resolved soon.

Any fix for this planned?

Thanks
