    I’ve had none of those issues, nor the one described above with Sony earbuds. They’re the fastest connecting, least often disconnecting earbuds I’ve ever had. What device are you connecting them to? Could at least explain some of the connections issues you’re having if it doesn’t support the newer codecs it prefers.

      Pixel 8 pro, so yes, it supports everything. And the issues I’ve had are ones people have been complaining about for a long time. There are numerous reddit threads about them.

      Don’t have these issues with any other devices.

        Interesting. I have intimate knowledge of pixel devices, having been a Google certified technician and having gone beyond that to do component level diagnosis and repair. I can say, they are probably the worst put together phones on the market. They basically just cram as much shit in them as they can and hope it works. They don’t advertise it, but every single one has had major, serious issues. In fact, we were expressly forbidden from telling customers about known issues, and had to offer “one time exceptions” for all sorts of issues. So all that to say, I’m not surprised to hear about those issues on a pixel device. They’re not good devices. Even a $79 Samsung has better build quality and internal design. Android Bluetooth stack is notoriously terrible also, have you tried them with non-android devices, like a console, PC, Linux phone or iPhone to see if they persist?
