Common problems and solutions for wireless bluetooth headphones

Check the manufacturer’s recommended pairing process. Not all Bluetooth headphones will connect with your phone in the same way; sometimes, it’s as easy as just turning on your headphones; other times, it’s a bit more complicated. To avoid any issues with pairing your device, carefully read through all the details on what you should be doing.

Try turning them off and on again. It’s an old method, but let’s face it – sometimes it really does work.

Turn off or remove any interfering devices. It could be that, for some reason, your headphones are trying to connect with another device instead of your smartphone.

Move away from the Wi-Fi router. It could be that your Wi-Fi router is using the same spectrum as the headphones, and thus causing some interference.

Ever since Apple released its AirPods, consumer demand for true wireless headphones has shot up. Despite their technological advancements, Bluetooth headphones sometimes suffer from annoying issues. In this article, we take a look at the most common Bluetooth headphone problems and easy solutions to fix them!

It also happens quite often that when you try to pair your headphones and smartphone together, you’ll either be greeted by an error message, or the pairing process seems to run forever – without actually pairing the two. The simplest solution here is:

Delete any unused or unnecessary Bluetooth connections. Some devices start acting up if there are too many devices in your Bluetooth connectivity list.

If this fails, you can try any of the other solutions we’ve already listed.

Reduce the distance between your smartphone and your headphones, as this also helps reduce (or even solve) any static.

These are all proven methods of getting around some of the more annoying Bluetooth issues, but this isn’t a catch-all list. If none of these troubleshooting methods work, it’s best to contact the manufacturer directly.
