Currently, many are the laptops available on the market that offer us bluetooth as standard, as long as we do not search among the most basic range of laptops. A few years ago, the only utility that bluetooth had among users was to transfer images, videos and the calendar between mobile devices, in addition to the infrared port, in those devices that have it. But for some time now, the use of this technology expanded to include wireless devices that allowed us to make calls wirelessly through a headset with a microphone, that small device that became so popular in the early 2000s.
Bluetooth technology has improved a lot in these years and currently we can find mice, speakers, headphones and other devices that connect thanks to this technology, which has also greatly reduced consumption compared to the first versions, so deactivate bluetooth in our mobile devices does not currently save energy. This type of device can quickly connect to our Windows 10 PC, so that they allow us to work or interact with them without having to have additional cables or USB ports.
Connect a bluetooth device to Windows 10
- First of all, we must have the device that we want to connect to our PC plugged in.
- Second, we must activate it so that it starts looking for devices to associate with. As a general rule, these devices usually have a specific button or a combination of keys so that he begins to search with whom to link.
- At that time, the device will begin to flash intensely.
- Now we go to the Start menu> Settings> Devices> Bluetooth.
- At this point the computer will start looking for devices to associate with. The name of the device will appear on the screen of our computer.
- Click on the device in question, click on Pair.
- It is likely, depending on the type of device we want to pair, that it does not request that we write a code on the screen of it. If so, we will write it down and the device will automatically be paired to our Windows 10 PC.
