I set up bluetooth drivers (Blueman) on my Linux (Pop OS) computer, but the high-fidelity codec has a noticeable latency which makes it unfit for gaming. There is a "handsfree" option that has no latency but sounds like a walkie talkie. Is there some other codec I can download that has an in between quality?

@maxthefox apart from already suggested good options of checking if the situation is slightly better with SBC (in pavucontrol there is a switch to flip between codecs), have you checked how high is the load? (for some funny reason I do have the problems like yours with pulseaudio, but not with pipewire + wireplumber under high load). sometimes bluetooth works much better just if you switch to cable, because the card itself is shared with wifi module.

as has been said already, it's a mess, good luck!
