Samsung gear iconx incompatible with my Google pixel 2 XL

[UltraCLD]

I recently bought myself a pair of Samsung gear iconx 2018, and I'm having a really weird issue.
The headphone connects to my phone, stay connected for a few seconds and then disconnect and reconnect, and then stay connected for a few seconds and then disconnect and reconnect, over and over and over again. The weirdest part is that once I start playing music while it is connected, the connection turned stable and not disconnecting again.
The issue will come out once I disconnect manually and reconnect the headphone.
I'm rocking Android 9 pie on my Google pixel 2 XL.
The headphone is working really well on my MacBook pro and on some other Android phones which are rocking Android Oreo or even older version of Android.
Anyway to fix missing compatibility issue?

Mine work just fine, I have the 2018 edition iconx's. I switched from a s8 to a pixel2 for a week and then to a pixel 2 xl. They worked fine in both phones but seems like the bluetooth range isnt as strong in both the pixel 2's compared to the s8. I get distortions at shorter ranges but notthing close to what you describe.

Did you install the latest version of the samsung gear app?
