How to setup
Connect headphones to smartphone Is one thing, but setting up a headset is a completely different matter. Before using standard wired headphones on Android smartphones, it is necessary to identify the compatibility of devices:
- You want to view a metric headset resistance... It is indicated in ohms. Its digital value is located on the headset packaging. Headphones with an impedance of 16-32 ohms are ideal for smartphones. Some models of smartphones can be in contact with a headset with an impedance range of 50-64 ohms. Modern smartphone models do not have an amplifier. If you connect a headset with a high impedance level to your smartphone, the sound will be faint and indistinct.

If you can hear the interlocutor well during the conversation, there is no interference, then the headphones fit perfectly and went through the required setting. If suddenly there is no sound, you should check the health of the audio jack or the microcircuit operating the sound effects of the phone.
- After connecting the headphones, you must check if the smartphone has recognized the new device. Quite often, when a headset is connected, a headphone icon appears at the top of the phone's operating panel. If it does not appear, then you need to check the tightness of the plug into the connector. As an additional check of the functionality of the purchased headset, you need to take other headphones with the same type of connection. If the other headset works perfectly, then the purchased headphones are faulty.
- After checking the fit of the headphones and determining that the headset is working, you need to go to the sound setting. To do this, you can use a standard equalizer or an additional application corresponding to the operating system. It's worth noting that third-party apps are the best customization option for smartphone users. They can be used to change the general nature of the sound reproduction, increase the standard maximum volume, add bass, and much more.
But the owners of a wireless headset for smartphones with the Android operating system are doubly lucky:
- A wireless headset is most convenient for continuous use, although it requires timely recharging.
