It’s not yet considered a major issue as it has yet to be addressed to our knowledge by Apple. However, this is not the first time Apple has had Bluetooth connection issues. Previously in 2014, there were Bluetooth connectivity issues reported after the OS X Yosemite update. Consumers experienced problems trying to connect to Apple’s Magic Mouse, Magic Trackpad, Apple wireless keyboard, and other third-party wireless accessories.  All this has left users wondering if the flaw lies within the newly released M1 processor or Apple’s MacOS Big Sur update.

We will be keeping an ear out for more information as it becomes available.
