I have these paired to an LG V30. connection was simple and quick. Signal strength is great if you're within line of sight to the device. I used these while washing car with device in front pocket and would lose signal while crouched down cleaning the wheels, but I guess that's an issue with all Bluetooth signals not being able to go through the body. While standing and running perfect connection. Sound quality is acceptable. Sound volume seems a bit weak compared to a standard pair of wired buds, but not bad. The charging case is solid and feels great. While charging the IEMs they create a high pitched tone similar to Coil whine and only stops until fully charged. I noticed if I removed the right piece while the left is charging and re connect it, the noise seems to calm down some. The buttons are worthless for music control, pressing them shoves the piece uncomfortably into ear would only use them to manually pair to device. Over all these are ok for the price. They look great build quality is good. I would buy them again just because of battery life, low profile and great fitment.

SUC817The disconnections are most likely your phone. LGv30's are known for having shoddy bluetooth. But you get what you pay for I guess. https://www.technobezz.com/fix-lg-v30-bluetooth-issues/

smallbitWot? Are you trying to direct traffic bc of a vested interest or something? The V30 has strong BT connection in my experience. And I don’t see anyone mentioning particular issues apart from that weird website you linked, which btw doesn’t actually give any pointers towards “solving” issues. For my money, and especially since we’re commenting inside Drop’s Audiophile section, the V30 was the best flagship all round when it came out, and is still my phone & DAP, a beast for both wired and wireless use.

SamsaraTYou have to put a /s at the end of posts like that so people know you are being sarcastic... Unless you really think I am a billionaire who has a "vested interest" in the LG V30's demise. But hey if you like it, I don't really care. https://www.androidauthority.com/problems-lg-v30-fix-808232/

smallbitThe page you linked yourself tells the impartial reader everything he needs to know about the relative validity of your claims. Between that and the relevant Head-fi threads I’m confident prospective owners have the data at hand to make an informed purchase decision. I don’t care either whether you like the V30. Or LG in general. The V30 just solved many problems at once for me, as it does for others, and their series will continue to do so for the foreseeable future. I wouldn’t want anyone to get robbed of this wonderful all-in-one solution by posts such as yours above, so at odds with the user experience of everyone I know with this phone that it makes me suspect the most outlandish explanations. Your post appears all the more unacceptable because of its scornful phrasing - “you get what you pay for”?! What a deeply unpleasant, not to mention misinformed way of referring to a very capable flagship phone. Compared to my experience with a Samsung flagship, I for one would describe the V series as a vast improvement. Using an iPad at home didn’t diminish my esteem for LG either - if anything it increased it, esp. on the audio front!

smallbitI was going to drop this - I was; trashed the mail from Drop letting me know you’d replied and everything. Especially since now you’re the one asking if I work for a troll team :D it’s not like anyone cares about our off-topic discussion anyway. Just out of curiosity I checked your links. Dude - you have to READ what you link! Not only is it anecdotal - providing a grand sample of about 12 people with issues doesn’t a point make. But more importantly and ironically 90% of the reported problems end up fixed through a carrier update, or a BT reset, or evaporate by themselves, or go away when ppl unpair another problematic device. so yeah @SUC817 the issue is probably not your phone, rather the Chi-fi end of the pairing I’m afraid. and as to @smallbit I’ll just walk away now chuckling softly at the notion that you are the one calling me a troll

smallbitThe first article you linked is more than an year old, and clearly states that this is a software issue. The second article you linked is also just an year old, and is more of an "what if" article rather than clearly stating that there is a problem. And those reddit posts you've linked are just a few special individuals that have a bluetooth problem, and doesn't account for the majority. The LG V30 has had many software updates since then (20h for US998, 22j for H930), so all of those articles do not apply anymore. In fact, I own an LG V30 and haven't had a single issue with bluetooth connectivity at all. Clearly you just googled "LG V30 bluetooth problems" and cherry picked which one that aligned with your argument. I'm sorry but I'm gonna call "confirmation bias" on this one. Please feel free to indulge yourself with more logical fallacies and hypocrisy though, I'm sure they'll help prove your unsubstantiated argument even more. (Ah, just trolling? Never mind my intellectual comment then, I'll reserve that for the thinkers.)

TanvirK175Oh the irony. A conversation not worth having is @SamsaraT having to put up with @smallbit's failed attempt at trolling. Oh and by the way, the V30—objectively speaking— was and still is the best all-rounder phone of 2017. Whether you like to believe in the truth or not, that is up to you.

AudioNinjaphileI also had a quip in there about how you own the V30 so you are biased and ignorant to the competition in terms of ownership, performance and usage; but what might be more important is that you apparently completely ignored the samsung lineup from that year which introduced waterproof phones and apple's iphone 8. Lil' Wayne is in the canoe with Wesley snipes. WHAAAAAAAAAAAAaaaaaaat https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ISH0Wo9mwwc

smallbit> so you are biased to the competition in terms of ownership, performance and usage Yeah, so what? Do you expect a person who owns an iPhone not to be biased towards an iPhone? It's innate human tendency to have some degree of bias towards something they own or use, otherwise we'd be robots. However, the ability to rationalize our biases is what gives our opinions a sense of validity. > but what might be more important is that you apparently completely ignored the samsung lineup from that year which introduced waterproof phones  First of all, phones aren't really "waterproof", they are just water resistant to a certain degree. Second of all, the LG V30 has IP68 water resistance, the same rating found on all recent Samsung Galaxy flagships. Third of all, you ignored the one thing that Galaxy phones do not have: a dedicated quad DAC. It is this part that truly makes the V30 a "jack-of-all-trades" phone. However, admittedly Samsung wins in a lot of other departments such as the screen and camera.

smallbitLOL suit yourself kid. You just skimmed over the rest of my intellectual response and called me an "angry troll" just because you didn't like how I started my sentence. Hilarious! If this is what you call "winning an argument", then clearly you have mastered the opposite. Your reluctance to engage in intellectual discussion is even more disappointing than your hypocrisy. If anything, you certainly seem to be affected by my comments, otherwise you wouldn't have ended this discussion so quickly, lol. Defense mechanisms, am I right?

AudioNinjaphileWell lets do some math Mr. Intellectual. You have 10 visual upvotes on this page. Your user only has 8 points next to the name. That means you have stroked your own ego at least twice, just in this conversation. Pathetic.

smallbitOMG, you just exposed me! What shall I ever do now? Cower in fear!? Alright let's just get this straight, you just redirected this entire conversation from me simply pointing out the flaws in your assertions, to questioning my personal integrity and calling me egoistic, and on the basis of what? My upvotes? Hmmmm, that sounds oddly familiar doesn't it... Starts with an Ad, ends with a Hominem. As Wikipedia states: "ad hominem is a fallacious argumentative strategy whereby genuine discussion of the topic at hand is avoided by instead attacking the character, motive, or other attribute of the person making the argument, or persons associated with the argument, rather than attacking the substance of the argument itself." For this whole entire time, you've just been attacking my character, but little did you try to disprove or to concede with what I said. I think it's pretty obvious now who is really the pathetic one here. Anyways I'm done with this thread, enjoy your L.

DeliriumTriggerBecause he was spreading misinformation, and I was simply calling out his BS. I wasn't defending LG phones like some fanboy. I own the LG V30, I know that it is flawed in many ways (screen, software), but bluetooth problems isn't one of them. Those "bluetooth problems" he mentioned have long since been fixed by software updates. The only gripe I have with the LG V30 is the horrible AMOLED screen, it has terrible uneven backlighting when on low brightness. And unlike the bluetooth problem which was uncommon and temporary, this screen problem exists permanently on almost every V30 out there.

AudioNinjaphileDoesn't answer my question. Also I don't believe he was offering missinformation, he was offering incidental discussions of what the issue may have been. The links themselves discuss fixes and updates to the perceived issues, so they aren't even links of biased missinformation as you say. At least he was willing to put in the effort and address the OGs post with a potential reason. You really think this guy has anti LG agendas? Seems like a dumb stance to waste energy on.

DeliriumTriggerInformation does not need to be biased to become misinformation, it all depends on how the person frames/interprets the information. I get that he was trying to be devil's advocate, but the way he framed it made it sound like the V30 was factually a horrible phone because of this (currently) non-existent issue. Seemed like people blindly agreed with his faulty accusations, so I had to call out the BS. That was my initial logic, but realistically no one will ever bother reading this comment thread (plus the V30 is generally portrayed very positively in the media), so yeah, who cares I guess.
