What earphones does Fitbit Versa pair with?

[Syga]

Hi, I have Betron BR-74 earphones, specifically bought these for my new Versa, however when I try to pair them my watch doesn’t find it. Is there a list of what brand earphones work with Versa? I find it ridiculous that you have to try your luck, instead of actually knowing...

Has anyone successfully conected Bbetting to Versa before?

I just successfully paired my Versa with these:

Sony SP600N Wireless Noise Canceling Sports In-Ear Headphones, White (WI-SP600N/W)

The only hard part was finding the Setting icon on the Versa (swipe right a couple of times from the Apps screen.) The other trick was to put the headphones in pairing mode (by holding down the power button for 10 seconds) before choosing the Bluetooth setting to pair a device.

Thanks Straz, I’m doing everything correctly. I am probably unlucky with my earphones brand being incompatible with my watch...

Hello @Syga, 

I successfully connected my Ionic with a couple of supercheap Chinese made earphones without any single problem (apart my trusty Flyers and Bose QuietConfort) so it looks really strange.

Did your try to connect your earphones to your smartphone to see if they are the culprit?

Hi Giampi,

Yes, it is strange. The earphones work with my Iphone, and the watch seems to find other audio devices (like tv etc), but my earphones.

I'll try to google more, see if I can do anything else, otherwise, I'll just have to return the earphones.

Thanks

Hi Guys,

An update for you. Of course there is always something wrong with a process rather than devices.

I have successfully paired my watch with earphones. The issue was that my earphones kept automatically connecting to my phone, which I wasn't aware of. Once I disconnected it from my phone, I was able to pair it with my watch.

Thanks everyone for your support.

Thanks for the update. I accidentally did the same last night. My Versa couldn't pair with my headphones because they were instead pairing with my cell phone.

Excellent news guys!

I want to highlight that the Fitbit Flyers can keep two connections at the same time.

holding down the power button for 10 seconds works perfectly to connect BT device with Versa.

Thanks so much you helped me Pair my watch and the headphones I bought thinking it was broken and not compatible. Sad that the Instructions are not clear in the user manual.

Syga,  You are a genius! I thought I had wasted my money on earphones, but you saved me!

I wish the fix was as simple for me. I've been trying for days now and still doesn't pair.
