Best phone for bluetooth performance?

[scaryjim]

I'm aware that bluetooth is usually baked into the chipset so within phones sharing a chipset there won't be much difference, but - are there any phones out there with a good reputation for BT? Or any chipsets to favour/avoid?

background: my road bike has a BT speed and cadence sensor, and a cateye Padrone Smart cycle computer. Both these are BT 4, and as well as pairing them to each other, you can also pair both to your phone (with the cateye app), which records your rides AND sends real time data to the computer, so you have a conventional cycle computer head unit to get info while you're riding. When they pair to each other the connection is rock solid, and when I pair either of them to my phone individually the connection is stable, but when they're both paired to the app it's a bit of a crap shoot whether they'll stayed connected or not.

I'm suspect that my now aging blackberry keyONE is the crux of the problem, and since it's due for replacement anyway (and ride tracking is one of my main uses for my phone) it'd be good to get something that should be more reliable when paired to multiple devices.

So, what've you got for me?

Samsung smartphones show themselves well. Their performance is good. If we take a powerful model, then there is enough RAM to process several processes at the same time.

My LG V30 glitches and pauses/buffers/stutters any playing bluetooth audio whenever it connects or disconnects to wifi...annoying when you go out of the house with headphones on or drive away.

EDIT: it has Bluetooth 5.0, A2DP, LE, aptX HD (according to GSMArena) My guess is they're BT & WIFI are on one chip and it doesn't deal well with the connection dropping.

I can recommend huawei mate 20 pro. Aptx (Samsung doesn't have). Works great
