Mac Mini M1 - Bluetooth Drops & Wake Thunderbolt Display

Same for me. Screen doesn't wake out of sleep (connected with USB-C) and a lot of Magic Mouse/keyboard disconnects and reconnects...

I got the same issue but it is a M1 Pro 16GB/256GB. It would never sleep. if i sleep it it will freeze. if i reboot it will Boot-Loop. I had to return my MBP Because of this. Waiting for Next Gen MBP

Same here, I have to reboot to wake up the Mac mini

Similar issue here. I have a 8GB ram + 512 GB HDD Mac Mini M1. The screen does not wake sometimes. I am using Logitech Unifying Receiver for my keyboard/mouse so my case seems not a Bluetooth issue. I have to use the power button at the back of the machine to force reboot it.

Try this, instead of putting the Mini to sleep, select Lock Screen

instead. After some time the image will go black (preventing burn-in)

but should be re-enabled by mouse or keyboard and then log in again.

As for sleeping the new M1 Mini at all, it has such a reduced power

consumption compared to the Intel Minis that it really

isn't all that necessary. Also, using the lock screen approach,

you are instantly back where you left things instead of waiting for

the Mini to "wake up".

I have the same issues with my M1 Mac mini: significant Bluetooth problems – mouse, keyboard and AirPods all stuttering – and it sometimes won't wake my LG Ultrafine 4K display. The HDMI display I also have connected works fine on wake.

I have read that the best option is to use Apple Thunderbolt 3 (USB-C) to Thunderbolt 2 adaptor. I use it with Mac Intel Macbook Pro 2016. I can use webcam, Ethernet, USB and all ports on the Thunderbolt display. I am thinking of buying the new macbook air m1. I hope I could still use all ports.

Same here - Macbook Air M1 8/256

erratic connection problems with my Airpods Pro (short interruptions of the signal or acoustic noise) every ~ 15min, at least once a day signal loss on the external monitor (Dell U3419).

I hope this is just a software problem

I've been having these same problems on my brand new M1 MacMini 8GB/512GB: Constant Bluetooth dropouts affecting my trackpad (keyboard is wired), trouble waking from sleep (taking forever to process my password before fully waking), and trouble with my second monitor coming back on after waking from sleep (primary 34" ultrawide Samsung monitor connected via HDMI; second monitor is an older model Samsung 27" model connected via USB-C port with an HDMI-to-USB C adapter).

I worked with Apple Support and they went through a variety of troubleshooting (e.g., SMC reset). None worked. Then she suggested creating a second admin user account, restarting and signing in as that new user. Sure enough, the Bluetooth problem went away, and the second monitor worked from sleep as you expected it would. Then she had me fast-switch back to my regular user account, and everything continued to work swell from there.

It's been about six hours since this troubleshooting and so far everything's working great. I hope you others find this helpful.

i would say you should call apple sales support , to start the return process. They’ll send you a return label . Depending if your city has covid-19 restrictions, normally you can return it back to any Apple store even if it’s an online order . That way you get your refund faster.
