Hi guys,
Having the phone for about a year, everything is OK at this price point, I can even say that camera pleasantly surprises me. Except extremely annoying issues while connecting to my bluetooth devices.
I use on a daily basis 2 devices:
1 - Headphones. Bose NC700. They support only AAC and SBC. It requires 3-5 toggles on/off of BT of the phone to make this thing to connect to headphones. Always. Very annoying. Phone tells it’s connected - but no sound, and players (Tidal & Aimp) even don’t resume/start playing tracks.
2 - BT DAC. Qudelix 5k. DAC supports everything 😅, so phone tries to use Aptx HD. Issue some times is as with headphones, but more often is first 20-30 seconds sound is terrible. It’s low bit rate, crackles, interrupts. I tried different modes. Just SBC, just AptX, just AptX Adaptive and AptX HD (DAC allows enabling/disabling supported protocols).
Also some times I connect it via android auto to my car. There in most cases it connects fine. In rare it requires same actions as with item #1.
I have 2 more phones (Samsungs). And none of those has any similar issues. They don’t have issues with BT at all.
Please assist.
