My spouse and I have separate iPhone 8’s but share an identical problem.

Bluetooth enables itself on both our phones. We don’t use Bluetooth and haven’t for at least 2 years. I disable it, but it will re-enable itself again at some point. Searched online for a fix and disabling BT in settings and then doing a restart can supposedly help. Have just done this.

We each have the same unknown device listed under Bluetooth: [TV] Samsung 7 Series (70). We’ve never owned a Samsung TV. Even stranger is that today the unknown device actually paired with my phone. Wtf. I then selected “Forget this device.” Went out of Bluetooth and back in - and there it was listed again!

Any help is appreciated.
