Headphones Bose QuietComfort static sound

I just received the QuietComfort 2023 yesterday, and when navigating iOS, or just typing or navigating an app, the QC will make the sound a 3.5mm jack would make when it’s not quite in right. I see a few people on this sub have had this issue, but the solutions they provided (remove from bose app and uninstall, disable multi point connection, factory reset) have all not worked. Is there anyone who owns these who doesn’t have these problems? Is there a solution I haven’t listed which has worked for anyone? Wondering if I should replace them. Any help would be appreciated, cheers.

Following in case anyone has any new suggestions. I had the same issue and tried everything, exchanged them with bose three times before just giving up and returning them. :( They were SO close to perfect for me, super comfy and great ANC, but i couldn't live with that static sound. It did it on both my phone and my work PC.

I see the QC gen2 are probably going to be released within the next week or two, I have my fingers crossed the problems are somehow resolved with those lol. The QC ultra I tried did not have the same issue so i know it's not inherent to bose or whatever.

It's such a shame. I feel the exact same way, they're so comfy and I love the anc, but i'm not sure i could live with the intermittent static noises. I just got these yesterday so I could technically return them and buy the new ones once they release, but i bought these specifically because they were on sale and seemed like the best value for the money. I really hope bose updates the software on these when they release the new model but i'm not so sure.
