Sony headphones are known for their high-quality sound and advanced features. However, if you’re new to using Sony headphones, you may be unsure of how to pair them with your device. In this step-by-step guide, we’ll walk you through the process of pairing your Sony headphones, specifically the Sony WH-CH710N and WH-1000XM3 models.
Step 1: Turn on your headphones
The first step to pairing your Sony headphones is to turn them on. For the WH-CH710N model, press and hold the power button on the left earcup until the indicator light starts flashing. For the WH-1000XM3 model, press and hold the power button on the right earcup until the indicator light starts flashing.
Step 2: Enable Bluetooth on your device
Next, you’ll need to enable Bluetooth on the device you want to pair your headphones with. This can usually be done through the device’s settings or by swiping down from the top of the screen and tapping on the Bluetooth icon.
Step 3: Select your headphones from the list of available devices
Once Bluetooth is enabled on your device, it should start scanning for available devices. Look for your Sony headphones in the list of available devices and select them to begin the pairing process.

Once your device has successfully connected to your Sony headphones, you should hear a confirmation sound or see a notification on your device. Your headphones are now paired and ready to use.
