How to connect beats studio wireless headphones
Each path follows the same initial steps before the device-specific pairing process.
Before you start: charge and power on
Ensure your Beats Studio Wireless headphones have sufficient charge. Use the micro USB port to connect the charging cable to a USB power source. A quick 10-minute charge gives 3 hours of playback time. Once charged, press and hold the power button on the right ear cup until the indicator lights flash, indicating the headphones are powering on.
Enter pairing mode
With the headphones turned on, press and hold the power button for approximately five seconds. The Fuel Gauge lights or LED indicator will begin to flash, confirming the headphones are in pairing mode and ready to connect to any device.
Connect to an iPhone or iPad
Hold your Beats Studio Wireless headphones near your iPhone or iPad. If a setup animation appears on the screen, follow the on-screen instructions to complete pairing. If the animation does not appear, or for manual pairing, go to Settings > Bluetooth on your device, ensure Bluetooth is turned on, and tap "Beats Studio Wireless" in the list of devices.
Connect to an Android device
On your Android device, navigate to Settings > Connections > Bluetooth and ensure Bluetooth is turned on. In the list of available devices, look for "Beats Studio Wireless" and tap on it to pair. The connection will establish automatically.
Connect to a Mac or other Bluetooth device
With your Beats Studio Wireless headphones in pairing mode, open the Bluetooth menu on your Mac or other Bluetooth-enabled device. Select "Beats Studio Wireless" from the list of available devices to complete the connection.
Troubleshooting common connection problems
If your headphones do not appear in the device list, confirm they are in pairing mode (LED flashing). For connection drops, check the battery level and move closer to your device, away from potential interference like Wi-Fi routers or other Bluetooth devices. If pairing issues persist, reset by holding the power button for 10 seconds. To perform a factory reset, turn off the headphones, then press and hold the power button for 15 seconds before turning them back on and attempting to pair again.
