Method and apparatus are provided that may help improve user experience during a media session when a mobility procedure of a user equipment (UE) involved in the session causes disruption in reception of packets. According to certain aspects, upon detecting an event indicating a mobility procedure is likely to occur, the UE may increase size of a buffer used to store packets during the session and/or reduce the rate at which packets are played out from the buffer to reduce service (e.g., voice/data) interruption.
