I have owned 3 pairs of the Anker Soundbuds and each one has has the same problem:
When I am commuting to/from work on the train, no matter where on my body I have my phone (Galaxy S6 with Marshmallow), the earbuds sometimes cut out briefly, and then when they start playing sound again (half-second to full second later) they speed up the playback to catch up in real time. This happens 6-10 times per hour of audio playback, even on a full charge.
Locations of where I keep my phone on my person: my front pants pocket, my back pants pocket, my side-front jacket pockets, the chest pocket of my jacket and the inside pocket of my suit jacket.
In all of these places, maximum distance of 4’ or so, these “sputters” occur.
Here have been my troubleshooting steps:
- Restarted my phone
- Un-paired and re-paired my Ear buds
- Updated my latest Android version
- Fully charged the earbuds over night
- Paired with an iPhone, and had the same issue
- Happens with the native music player, podcast apps, and even the YouTube app.
- There is plenty of RAM space and storage available on the devices as well.
This hasn’t happened with my iPad at all, just phone devices.
Is there any sort of firmware on the earbuds to update or any other things I should be checking?
Thanks,
