Bluetooth issues after 10.13.3 update

After this update i'm having Bluetooth issues with all devices i have connected ( Master MX 2s, BeatsX headphones and Sony MDR-XB950BT ).


First everything lags and then they disconnect. My solution is to toggle Bluetooth (which happens every half an hour).


Anyone having the same problems?

MacBook Pro TouchBar and Touch ID, macOS High Sierra (10.13.3)

Possible cause: USB 3.0/2.0 devices causes strong interference with the wireless built-in devices. That was my case. My particular solution: a powered usb 3.0 hub wit shielded cable far away the Mac (a tp-link UH700 or similar).


Info about the interference:

Logitech

WIRELESS PRODUCT NOT WORKING PROPERLY WHEN ALSO USING A USB 3.0 DEVICE


Apple Support:

Bluetooth: Unreliable wireless performance may occur when USB 3.0 external devices are close


Why do I have difficulty with Wi-Fi or Bluetooth devices when USB 3 devices are attached to my computer?
