NoshowJones Posted January 1, 2022 Share Posted January 1, 2022 I use a Bluetooth headset, with earplugs. Can I use the same headset on different devices, ie on my desktop, laptop and smartphone? I understand each device will have to be set separately, right? Sorry about asking such a simple thing, there are no farangs I can ask near me.

VocalNeal Posted January 1, 2022 Share Posted January 1, 2022 Yes but only one at a time? Meaning you have to turn off the pairing on the other the two. I believe. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
recom273 Posted January 1, 2022 Share Posted January 1, 2022 Yes, of course you can. For instance, my iPad has a profile for my BT headset in settings, when I need to move to my Mac, then I go to settings and disconnect from the iPad and connect to the Mac mini. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes Also, there are some headsets that have something called Multipoint where you can have your Headset connected at the same time to your (for example) TV and also to your phone. https://www.soundguys.com/bluetooth-multipoint-explained-28601/ 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If your headset DOESN'T have multi-point capability, then you have to disconnect from one source before making a connection to a different source Edited January 1, 2022 by MJCM 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MJCM Posted January 1, 2022 Share Posted January 1, 2022 @Mavideol The maxi pairings that your device however could be limited, how many depends of course on your device. Mine can have 8 pairings max, if I want to connect to nr 9 it will replace the device that was first paired of the existing paired devices. (I Only have 3 pairings, Phone, AppleTV and PC) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
