I am now hearing issues with BT disconnections with 16e. Is this a real problem for many users or only some reporting it ? I also saw 16 initially had same issues with BT but don’t hear any more on these now. Likely to be a software fix/ update for 16e’s new Apple modem ? Would buy new 16e except this is holding me back from changing from my 15plus as I prefer smaller phone
 
I am mostly using bluetooth for my earbuds on a 16e and have not had any problems in the month or so I've owned it.

The phone connects to my car without any glitches.
 
There have been complaints with multiple different iPhone models so it isn't isolated to the 16e. It seems to be a software issue that doesn't effect most users.. Also the C1 modem has nothing to do with Bluetooth

Good to know thanks
 
I had the same problem with my iPhone 16e (I previously had a iPhone 13 mini and never had any issues with Bluetooth). Installing version 18.4 RC fixed the problem. In my case, the audio or connection to devices would cut out; I always carry my Apple Watch and AirPods, and I listen to music via Bluetooth when I'm driving. The audio would cut out constantly and it was horrible, and sometimes FindMy would say I'd left my watch or AirPods behind because I'd lost connection. As I said, this has been fixed with beta 18.4.

Great I’ll purchase 16e once it is fully released
