Bluetooth Dual Audio: Car + headset?

[binba2]

I have a 2016 VW Jetta. I also have a single-ear, road-legal Bluetooth headset with excellent sound quality. I'd love to be able to use both.

- I understand that the Dual Audio feature is the best for such a scenario?

- Does it mean the new Samsung phones are the best choice (I am in the market for a new phone, and was already considering the Galaxy 10e)? Pixel devices don't have this feature?

- Do all the involved devices have to support Bluetooth 5.0? Because then there's no way... I don't believe the 2016 Jetta head unit can do 5.0.

- Any idea if it's robust? I don't want to be futzing with settings while on the road.

- How does it work with two devices that both have microphones? You choose which one is the mic source?

Thanks!

The only question I can answer with certainty is the last one - the device paired as the phone device is the active mic.

(Bluetooth Multi Connect may work for a Pixel. For a 2016 head unit? Maybe. It's free - try it.)
