what is this mystery "iphone" connected via bluetooth? there's no "i" icon next to it so when I tap on the device, nothing happens. It auto connects when I'm at work and at home. This only happens on my work phone. It still shows when I turn my personal phone bluetooth off and I've never tried to connect the two phones anyway. how do I find out what device this is and how to delete it?
iPhone 14 Pro, iOS 26
Check at Settings > Privacy & Security > Bluetooth. An app that has been given permission to access Bluetooth can add a device where you will not see the info button in bluetooth settings to remove it. You would remove it in the app or you can turn off the Bluetooth permission for that app in the Settings noted above and the device will be removed immediately.

Are there any profiles (MDM) loaded on either phone? (Settings > General > VPN & Device Management)
It’s a Low Power Bluetooth device. It’s not paired or synced to your device. It’s operating as expected per Bluetooth specifications. Low power devices are things like AirTags, Bluetooth speakers, auto entry systems etc. This is nothing to be concerned about.

I’m within range of an AirTag (1st gen, synced), and don’t see it shown.
It’s probably because it’s a known device (synced) and not displayed in the Bluetooth settings. I suspect it shows up in Find My.
Jim, I suspect a company managed device that is using some sort of BLE network to allow the company to track the device.
