Q: iPhone SE Bluetooth issues

You're right Grant. And guess what? It makes phone calls on BT! Can your SE do that yet? Ha ha . Here's your sign!

Hey DS I have a 5s cause my SE had problems and I returned it, so yes it can.  It also has 8.2.1 which has a better App Switcher and its faster IMO

Cool. Thought you had an SE and was one of the many people on here defending that junk. My bad. All my best.

My SE makes BT calls

NOOO... the screen was worse (red tint) the sound was worse (noticeably lower and less clear from built in speaker,  headphones and through BT) and the battery was no where near what Apple stated.  I also hated iOS9 .  Why pay for something that is a step back.  One thing that was an improvement was the antennas used, seemed to cover more areas and connect back quicker after dropping out of a no service zone.  Not worth it for me when the iPhone 7 is just around the corner, I could still probably run my 5s for another 1.5 to 2 years with no problems

Grant I'm with you on SE quality. About 30 pages ago in this tread I laid out my story. In a nutshell - I was suckered into going from my 6 to SE because of size, processor etc. I paid $150 to do so when it first came out - cheaper than eBay/craigslist to get the smaller phone. My experience went downhill from there. Apple wanted to charge me ANOTHER $150 to switch back to the 6. I was stuck. So that's the back story. After a relentless pursuit to get them to waive the $150, today they finally did. I couldn't wait for the 7 because I needed this now. The specs of the 6 are fine with me. It was the size that I didn't/don't like. I'll live with it for now, but I'm not likely to get another iPhone when this one is obsolete. I keep phones about 3 years on average.

9.3.2 is now out for public download. Don't forget to post about your BT perfomance after you install the update. From the release notes:

"iOS 9.3.2 fixes bugs and improves the security of your iPhone or iPad. This update:

• Fixes an issue where some Bluetooth accessories could experience audio quality issues when paired to the iPhone SE"

Downloading it now - funny how they put it: "fixes an issue where some BT accessories experience audio quality issues...."

Yeah I see that. Unfortunately I literally went this morning and exchanged my SE Junk back to an iPhone 6 at no charge. I hope this works out for those who kept their SE, but I fear it's a sign of things to come with this version. Oddly enough, no one knew at the store this morning, when I asked, if an update was due. That is what happens when you have a company ran by a bunch of young people who really lack the experience to deal with the public - they're all clueless. One would think at least a manager could've said "We anticipate an update release later today or this week." But NO. No one below Mr. Cook has any idea what is going on.

Yep. It's the #1 item, yet, walk into any store and ask - they are all clueless. Great product, lousy leadership. The product sells itself. Everything up to this SE has been top quality. This thing has been and I think will be a disaster. Apple isn't even shipping them, they are so terrible. I stopped in a Verizon store in the mall just to see and the salesman said "We can't get them and haven't been able to for a long time. We stopped promoting them to customers." Sad.

And everything after it will be too, phones and Apple hasnt been the same since Jobs died and the stock price is showing it.  Days for Apple is declining, early prototypes show the 7 will be like the 6 - 6s with different antenna lines and different OS, that aint going to cut it.  It takes someone like Jobs with OCD to stay on top of stuff like this and to get the products we want

still downloading the 9.3.2. Its been 10 mins...

Is it working for anyone else?

I upgraded. It's fixed.

It took them one month approx, not bad as they had to test final version, but they fixed this in beta within 14 days? Not bad...

Regarding being so silent about it, I believe there is company policy and admiting such software bug would have big impact on stock price.

Not so happy with their approach, but kinda understand it.

Wow, you must've been sitting in your car, checking for the upgrade, downloaded and installed via carrier then made a phone call all within 30 minutes since this just released at 1000 PST.
