"However the Bluetooth connection is abysmal. ... Constant audio drops and glitches and pops. ... I've adjusted every conceivable setting, priority to stable, AAC instead of LDAC etc.... but it's just shit."
"I’ve had some Sony link buds s before that did pretty much the same thing. ... whenever im outside the audio cuts out or glitches. ... Most of the time this is on the aware mode. But i realized the other day that it happens on noise cancellation aswell. Less often but still happens. ... It’ll cut out with the slightest noise ( like the wind is barely blowing or a car drive by) ... I’m not even in that noisy of an environment. For example a single car will go by like every 10 minutes or so. ... Just getting fed up with the audio cutting out for a second or 2."
"with the sony the multipoint is hit & miss (unreliable)"
