Yes it does. Also the app cycles through the correct serial numbers for the case and each ear bud.
Going fully Wireless IEMs. Too soon? Or are we there yet?

Yeah sounds like you are good. My replacements arrive tomorrow. Waiting to hear from apple on the first set.

I was over generalizing a bit but there are plenty of $50 or under iems that are easily better than their $200+ tws counterparts. I just got my truthear zeros in a couple days ago. They are unmatched in terms of SQ compared to any tws, to my ears.
At a certain point thought I think there’s such thing as “good enough” and the convenience of TWS takes over. I love my the tonality of my Blessing 2 Dusk. But the AirPod Pro 2 is good enough and has waaay more functionality.

I mean, do they have Bluetooth, anc, making phone calls without extension mics? Tws is not just about sq but other functions too and they keep improving the sq departments over the time with new codecs.

Slightly off topic but my son want some over the ear Bluetooth headphones for GBP50 or so. To use in gym. Is there an equivalent thread for this as I’ve not been able to locate to much content searching for Bluetooth in the Headphones. Id imagine there are plenty in here who have some in their collection by the looks of it! Thank you in advance.

Over ear for the gym can be tough since they fall off if you move. I do see people rocking bose etc in the gym and always wonder how they stay put. Maybe I'm just not cool enough to pull this off.

PX8 in the house. GD these things are smoooothh!. I think I'm in love. Got them in the classifieds for $500. Feels worth that price.But, you know, you could always flip them to cover some cost!
Turning to the Nuras, I'm torn. They do sound good but if I'm being honest, I'm not sure they sound any better than the QCII to my ears. In fact, they sound quite similar and the Bose offer that monster ANC on top. I'd probably give the Nuras a very slight edge in SQ due largely to the spatial audio mode. Maybe that would increase with the dongle. More time needed.

Since when did Bose sound good?
I have the QCii now and they sound poor (U shaped?), but I got for the ANC and if they would seal (I have the Extra Fit Kit), I could see if the ANC is that good but then again it has annoying white noise.
My old wired QC20's were better with their all-in-one earfin/tip instead of paper thin eartips.
Poor battery life esp. as they cut AAC bitrate down to try get longer, 192k is kind of lame and ANC or AMB no OFF.
Windows Vol13 so well below the claimed 6hours AAC+ANC @50% Vol the buds died within 2min of each other so made it one screen
When/if these get the aptX Lossless update it will be more like 4 hours if you're lucky.

Hard for me to believe anyone would consider the SQ of the QCII to be "poor". I could understand, colored or not particularly accurate or not tuned to my liking but poor? Not sure what that would be based on. Everyone gripes about the sucked mids on Bose - just bump them on the EQ. To each their own - as an all arounder they are really hard to beat. Interesting on the bit rate however.Since when did Bose sound good?

Bose and Sony are not good sounding IMO and many say the same (they have their own kind of sound) they are about ANC, if you like SQ go with others like MTW3 etc
Soundpeats did the same with their new Mini Pro HS (LDAC), the AAC bitrate is even less (156 AFAIR) < I would need pair them AGAIN and see for sure as I forget.

Are you sure the throttling of the bit rate is not tied to the source rather than the headphones?
