Hi, I saw that the new H7 is coming with Bluetooth 4.1. The H8 has still Bluetooth 4.0 - and many Problems with the Bluetooth Connection. Any Idea is a update coming - soon?

Thanks Thomas

This has NOTHING to do with the Bluetooth specifications!

Look for example at an older Sony Ericsson MW600 Bluetooth Stereo Headset adapter. It has "only" Bluetooth 2.1 and works even in very crowded places withouth any problems! - and it's from 2011!

But I agree: We can only hope that B&O find's a way to fix it - which they should have done BEFORE releasing it to the market.
