Hello list, So, I’m in the process of trying out a couple of new earpieces to replace my Plantronics Voyager Edge. I’ve got them both connected to my personal iPhone SE and business 5S. Both phones have been updated to iOS 11.x. Although, this issue has been around with previous iOS versions. Maybe at the same rate or perhaps I’m just noticing it more now and am less patient considering this is occurring on both new earpieces, but on both phones, the bluetooth connection keeps dropping with both of these earpieces.
I’m always getting a phone one/ phone two disconnected/ phone one/phone two connected notice in my ear which is annoying to say the least. I used to get this on my old Edge, but I thought maybe it was a function of the edge needing to be replaced. I’m not so certain anymore. I also have a pair of Aftershokz Trekz Titanium bone conduction headphones only connected to my personal SE that gives me a bluetooth disconnected/bluetooth connected message as well. In fact, I got a warranty replacement for the Trekz since the first headphones kept on dropping the bluetooth, but these new ones are doing the same thing. To be clear, I do recall this occurring on prior iPhones I’ve owned and since it’s happening on all devices, I’m pretty certain it’s not an issue with one particular phone or earpiece. In this case, a Voyager 5200 and Voyager 3200 along with the Voyager Edge and Trekz. My impression is that the 3200 is disconnecting more frequently than the 5200, but that could just be me. I have done the whole forget this device on both phones and re-pared, but still the same issue. Bluetooth doesn’t seem to drop while using the earpieces (in a phone call or streaming audio of some sort), but rather when the phones are inactive. In my pocket, on the desk etc. Also if I wake the phone and try to unlock will the connection drop every now and then. On my trekz, the connection is always reestablished on its own right away, but with both these new voyager earpieces, I find myself having to press the talk button to trigger whatever needs to be triggered for the connection to be reestablished. Considering that I’m experiencing this issue with multiple earpieces and on multiple devices, I don’t know what to do since it doesn’t seem to be device specific. Phones are up to date, firmware on the earpieces that have firmware are updated and so on. Is anyone else dealing with this rather annoying problem and do they have or know of a fix for it?
