Hi all,
if I connect my Huawei MediaPad M3 to the Bluetooth headphones TX Concerto, the speed of the WIFI drops dramatically, preventing me to watch a movie in streaming without continuous buffering. This behavior is often associated to interference in the 2.4 Ghz between Bluetooth and WIFI, but unfortunately my router doesn't support 5 Ghz (and I'm not sure my tablet does it), so I couldn't test this solution.
However, I was confused when I connected the tablet to the Bluetooth Bose SoundLink, since in this case there are no issues! Distance does not matter: either close or far away, I always get issue with the headphones, none with the speaker. I haven't done specific speed tests yet, but the differences are clear (buffering vs no buffering with the same other conditions).
On the other hand, my Samsung Galaxy 10.1 tablet has nos issues in either cases, so it's definitely something related to the MediaPad (and likely other devices), but I don't understand why only with the headphones and not with the speaker.
Do you have any suggestions?
Thanks,
Stefano

I've tried two Motorola and one Jabra bluetooth headset with my Fuze (and with a Touch Pro 2) and regardless of the device and headset the bluetooth range is maybe 20 feet. At that point it gets weak and ends the connection. On the TP2 I can even see the signal strength die as I walk using the built in software. This is without walls both indoors and outdoors.
Are you guys seeing similar results with bluetooth headsets on these devices? Any suggestions?

no it's the hardware spc of the bluetooth in the phone
bluetooth is close range it only send with ½watt
thanks. I could deal with the 32' they mention...I'm 1/3 less than that but I guess it is what it is...
I have the same problem with my jawbone2, even just walking with
the phone in my pocket the sound through the bluetooth sounds terrible on both ends is there a tweak for this or certin settings....on my moto q9h the sound was unbeatable
Hi, I make my comparisons versus my Gear 2 and just what seems reasonable.
With my Gear 2 I could be in another room in the house, a good 15 meters away and no issues, with the S2 (especially with the new function of vibrate on disconnect) it constantly drops when I move room even sometimes for no reason.
Also setup the WIFI option as a backup but again half the time it shows the WIFI signal as poor and I am sat right near the router, which is working 100% fine with everything else (i.e. mobile, laptops, tablets, tv.)
i get the same, bluetooth just disconnects , don't know why. also bluetooth music earphones cut out and range poor
I have exactly the same range problem on galaxy s6 edge plus with all bluetooth devices.
It's shocking , if Samsung don't fix these issues soon , will switch to fist android wear device with lte , there lucky the urbane 2nd got discontinued
A hard reset helped but still disappointing
I have a UK Galaxy S7 and I am wondering if anyone has had any issues with the bluetooth being perhaps a bit low powered. I have a Bose QC35 bluetooth headset and it works perfectly with my iPhone 6. I recently bought an S7 and the range seems to be awful with it cutting out anything more than a meter away. I have tried different orientations and it starts to stutter with my hand over the top of the phone (I assume the antennas location) specifically with it on my left side. I assume this is because the antenna in the Bose Headset is on the right ear cup. I don't have this issue with the iPhone so it must be a problem with the Galaxy S7. I returned the one I bought as I wondered whether my phone was specifically faulty and the issue is just as apparent on the new one. I have rooted my phone so I cant send it back and just wondered if anyone here had any ideas on what might solve it (can I lower the bitrate of the bluetooth compression some how?).
This video demonstrates how awful the stuttering problem is. The phone is within 1m range at all times and this cut out is obviously not acceptable. Here's a demo if it isn't clear.

same issue still can't find a solution...
i do have the same issue, post about it here :

my wifi reception is also bad, i get max 50 mbps on a 1gb fiber connexion, my old s4 is doing everything better and faster than the S7, i don't get it...

Ref the WiFi & cell signal I did notice my previous A5 2016 was reporting slightly stronger signals than my new S7. Tried another & it was the same. Weird.
I remember it was worse when I had a back case on it which I later lost getting into the Gear VR & that not accepting one. Not sure what you could use as a reference point though as the 'bar' system is frequently criticised for it's inaccuracies & there are a lot of signal apps out there to choose from.
Ref the WiFi do you have your router transmitting 5Ghz A/C? Only that's where the best speeds would be to be had with the S7 supporting A/C. Using my TP-Link VR600 transmitting a 5Ghz A/C 80 MHz signal referencing the Network Cell Info app I get about -40dBm with 866 Mbps link speed which gives me access to the full 80/20 offering of my fibre. With Wireless N rather than AC & on a 20Mhz 2.4Mhz channel I would be looking at a Link Speed somewhere in the region of 54Mbps. I wonder if that's where you are?

I have found that my bluetooth range and connectivity is quite poor.
If I have the phone in my pocket and am walking, there are times that audio will cut out and crack. When I have the phone in the car or on my desk, the bluetooth performs normally.
Anyone else experiencing any bluetooth issues like this?

In some areas WiFi interference is pretty bad; perhaps this phone is especially susceptible to this? I've noticed that it works both ways; i.e. the phone (when using Bluetooth) will cause some WiFi connectivity for other devices (laptops etc.) to slow down drastically.
Hi, I got NC2 earbuds, when I make Whatsapp video calls the communication is cut, it appears the message "poor connection" and the Wifi on the phone is taken down, and sometimes also in the whole house. I have to reset the router to restore the Wifi. The Internet speed is around 90 Mbps.
The earbuds are paired to my phone with SBC. I suspect there is something related to Android 11, because I tried this scenario in another phone with Android 8 and all was good. My phone is Xiaomi Mi Note 10 with Android 11. Any idea guys?
Thats really strange does it happens when using the earbuds in other apps?
How far away are you from the router when this happens?
Does it happens with other phones?
I mean other phones with android 10+ os version
This is quite strange. I'm about 2 or 3 meters away from the router, I start a Whatsapp video-call by using these earbuds and everybody loses Wifi at home and I have to reset the router. I can't figure out until now how this can be possible.
Taking a Wild guess I would assume that the frequency is causing an interference with your router.
Heres more information.
