The Switch 2 might be Nintendo’s most powerful system to date, running plenty of current-gen games like Street Fighter 6. Whether fans use it as a home console or a handheld, there are plenty of ways for gamers to get the most out of this system. Naturally, some players will want to use this system’s Bluetooth capabilities.
It might seem hard to believe, but the first Switch didn’t have Bluetooth earphone support until a few years into its existence. Nintendo has learned from this, as their new console will have the feature at launch. Here’s what fans need to know about connecting their Bluetooth devices to the Switch 2.
How Do You Connect Bluetooth Earphones to the Switch 2?
To connect Bluetooth earphones to the Switch 2, follow these simple instructions:
- Turn on the Switch 2 and head to System Settings
- In System Settings, head to the Bluetooth Audio section
- On Bluetooth Audio, pick “Pair”
- Turn on your earphones, and they should connect to the Switch 2
Switch 2 will be home to games with great music like Persona 5 Royal and Cyberpunk 2077, so wireless Bluetooth headphones could be essential. There’s also a headphone jack for the regular wired versions, so fans have multiple options. Either way, gamers will be able to enjoy some Nintendo jams on this system.
What Kind of Bluetooth Earphones Do You Need for the Switch 2?
Although specific models aren’t important, players will want Bluetooth earphones with low latency.
There are times when Bluetooth earphones with higher latency can cause sound delays. It’s not the worst, but it might ruin your gameplay or music experience. Just to be safe, make sure your wireless earphones have a gaming mode or low-latency mode, which will ensure a smoother experience.
