Title: iPhone 16e Has a Bluetooth Audio Problem Post by: HCK on March 15, 2025, 04:05:06 pm iPhone 16e Has a Bluetooth Audio Problem
In the two weeks since the iPhone 16e (https://www.macrumors.com/2025/02/19/apple-announces-iphone-16e/) launched, some early adopters of the device have experienced a Bluetooth audio issue. (https://images.macrumors.com/article-new/2025/02/iPhone-16e-Feature-1.jpg) According to complaints from affected users across the Apple Support Community (https://discussions.apple.com/thread/255996256), Reddit (https://www.reddit.com/r/iphone/comments/1j2m0mr/iphone_16e_bluetooth_problem/), and X (https://x.com/FatherShed/status/1898418475581723007), audio being streamed from an iPhone 16e to a Bluetooth speaker periodically stutters or cuts out. It is unclear how widespread the problem is. One affected user said the issue has persisted even after updating the iPhone 16e to iOS 18.3.2 (https://www.macrumors.com/2025/03/11/apple-releases-ios-18-3-2/), released earlier this week. It is unclear if the issue is or will be resolved in iOS 18.4, which is currently in beta and will be released in April. Some affected users said the issue appears to arise when the iPhone 16e is connected to multiple Bluetooth accessories simultaneously. Given that some of the affected users have contacted Apple's support representatives about this issue, hopefully the company is aware of the problem and working on a fix, which should arrive in a future software update.<div class="linkback">Related Roundup: iPhone 16e (https://www.macrumors.com/roundup/iphone-16e/)</div><div class="linkback">Buyer's Guide: iPhone 16e (Buy Now) (https://buyersguide.macrumors.com/#iPhone-16e)</div> This article, "iPhone 16e Has a Bluetooth Audio Problem (https://www.macrumors.com/2025/03/13/iphone-16e-bluetooth-audio-problem/)" first appeared on MacRumors.com (https://www.macrumors.com) Discuss this article (https://forums.macrumors.com/threads/iphone-16e-has-a-bluetooth-audio-problem.2453051/) in our forums Source: iPhone 16e Has a Bluetooth Audio Problem (https://www.macrumors.com/2025/03/13/iphone-16e-bluetooth-audio-problem/) |
