Hey Zhinc! 

I get it, it can be frustrating when pairing takes a while.

Here are some reasons why:

• While widely used, Bluetooth is still an imperfect medium. It is very prone to interference, which might be causing issues.
• Bluetooth tends to cut off even with minimal movement.
• Metallic stickers or covers may also be interfering with the Bluetooth connection.

As for the Toyota Audio issue, it must be because the two devices do not share the same Bluetooth codec. As you know, your Galaxy S23+ comes with Bluetooth 5.3 support. The delay might be due to your phone figuring out which codec to use with your Toyota Audio.

But I'd like to follow up - did you end up connecting your device?

Connected already.. thanks
