I have experienced annoying Bluetooth connectivity issues on my iPhone 6 ever since I upgraded to 8.0.2:
- Bluetooth connection to Kenwood car stereo drops when I receive a call (exactly when I DON'T want Bluetooth to drop!)
- Bluetooth connection to my Plantronics Backbeat Fit wireless headphones drops randomly
Looks like we need to wait for iOS 8.1 and hope that Apple resolves the Bluetooth issues in that release (without creating new bugs).
