STEPS TO CHARGE BLUETOOTH EARPHONES
Here’s a detailed step-by-step guide on how to charge Bluetooth earphones:
Step 1: Charging Bluetooth Earphones With a USB Cable
- You can charge your earphones on any electronic device that supports a USB port. All you’ll need is a USB cable.
- You can charge it with laptops, gaming consoles, TV, speakers, and others.
- There’s no need for your earphone’s compatibility with these devices, granted they consist of a USB port.
- You can also use your phone or tablet to charge the Bluetooth headphones. For this option, you’ll need an OTG cable.
- Check what type of USB port your headphones have. If it’s USB type C, you’ll need an OTG cable with a USB type C connector on one side and a USB 3.0 male connector on the other.
- However, if your Bluetooth headphone features USB 3.0, you’ll need an OTG cable with USB 3.0 male connectors on each side.
- You’ll have to connect the OTG cable, one end with the headphones and the other one with the phone. After finishing this connection, make sure the headphones start charging.
Note: Every smartphone doesn’t feature OTG support. In that case, this option becomes non-applicable to charge your Bluetooth earphones.
Step 2: Charging Bluetooth Earphones With PC or Laptop
- If you use a PC or laptop to charge your Bluetooth earphones, there won’t be any need for an OTG cable.
- You can use any standard USB cable with USB 3.0 on one end and type C on the other. Make sure both ends have male connectors.
- Connect one end to your earphones and the other to your laptop or PC.
- Once done, they will start charging instantly.
It’s imperative to know that charging via PC, laptop, or phone doesn’t damage your earphones. Bluetooth earphones from top brands like GOVO have advanced mechanisms and technology that take care of the energy overflow and prevent any damage from charging.
Note: if you use a laptop or phone to charge your headphones, their (phone and laptop) charge will likely drain out soon.
