Products from Samsung, Google, Sony, or Bose are common among Android users. They usually don&#8217;t grab AirPods because Apple&#8217;s earbuds and headphones don&#8217;t play nice with Android or Windows devices. Beats, being owned by Apple for over a decade, unfairly has a similar reputation.<\/p>\n<p>Yes, Beats is an Apple company, but the brand&#8217;s headphones and earbuds work superbly with Android phones. In fact, you&#8217;ll find that most Beats products support more Google-exclusive features than some dedicated Android audio products. For example, there are Beats headphones and earbuds with Google Find Hub, Google Fast Pair, and Audio Switching support. The integration runs deep, and it makes Beats a joy to use on any Android device.<\/p>\n<p id=\"elk-402ae9e6-5081-4543-bd21-7bddcfea5cb9-2\" class=\"paywall\" aria-hidden=\"true\">These are the four Android features you probably didn&#8217;t know Beats products had, and how to use them.<\/p>\n<p><span class=\"inline-flex items-center gap-1.5 text-sm font-article-heading capitalize leading-5 text-white whitespace-nowrap\"><span class=\"jwp-carousel-title-mobile\"\/><span class=\"jwp-carousel-title-desktop\">Latest Videos From<\/span><span class=\"jwp-carousel-brand inline-flex items-center\" aria-hidden=\"true\"><\/span><\/span><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" data-new-v2-image=\"true\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net\/flexiimages\/c8t5znsqpd1648225513.svg\" data-pin-media=\"https:\/\/cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net\/flexiimages\/c8t5znsqpd1648225513.svg\" class=\"rounded-[var(--image--border-radius,0)] max-h-12 w-auto\"\/><br \/>\n        <span class=\"\n            flex\n            after:content-[''] after:flex-1 after:ml-4 after:my-[0.7rem] after:border-t after:border-solid after:border-t-[#ccc]\n            before:content-[''] before:flex-1 before:mr-4 before:my-[0.7rem] before:border-t before:border-solid before:border-t-[#ccc]\n            font-article-heading pb-0 text-[length:var(--article-river-title--font-size,1em)] uppercase sm:text-[length:var(--article-river-title--font-size,0.875em)] font-bold\n        \"><br \/>\n            You may like<br \/>\n        <\/span><\/p>\n<h2 id=\"google-fast-pair-3\">Google Fast Pair<\/h2>\n<p class=\"vanilla-image-block\" style=\"padding-top:56.25%;\">\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"Beats Solo 4\" srcset=\"https:\/\/cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net\/v6rLDhot5kVNSMaj4u4vvL-1200-80.jpg 1200w, https:\/\/cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net\/v6rLDhot5kVNSMaj4u4vvL-1024-80.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net\/v6rLDhot5kVNSMaj4u4vvL-970-80.jpg 970w, https:\/\/cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net\/v6rLDhot5kVNSMaj4u4vvL-650-80.jpg 650w, https:\/\/cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net\/v6rLDhot5kVNSMaj4u4vvL-480-80.jpg 480w, https:\/\/cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net\/v6rLDhot5kVNSMaj4u4vvL-320-80.jpg 320w\" sizes=\"(min-width: 1000px) 970px, calc(100vw - 40px)\" loading=\"lazy\" data-new-v2-image=\"true\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net\/v6rLDhot5kVNSMaj4u4vvL.jpg\" data-pin-media=\"https:\/\/cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net\/v6rLDhot5kVNSMaj4u4vvL.jpg\" class=\"rounded-[var(--image--border-radius,0)] inline\"\/>\n<\/p>\n<p><span class=\"credit\" itemprop=\"copyrightHolder\">(Image credit: Tshaka Armstrong)<\/span><\/p>\n<p id=\"elk-8bc57079-fa5c-49f1-b5cf-304fdd2178b9\">Google&#8217;s Fast Pair system is one of the best parts of using a pair of Bluetooth headphones or earbuds within the Android ecosystem. Simply power on a set of supported wireless headphones or open the case of a pair of wireless earbuds, and they&#8217;ll automatically enter Bluetooth pairing mode. Tap the pop-up on your Android device, and the headphones or earbuds will instantly connect.<\/p>\n<p>Better yet, the Bluetooth device will be registered to your Google account. That means it&#8217;ll automatically connect with any device signed in to your Google account using the Fast Pair feature. Sure enough, many Beats headphones and earbuds support Google Fast Pair. That list includes the Solo Buds, Studio Buds Plus, Solo 4, and Studio Pro.<\/p>\n<p>All you need to do is open the case for supported Beats earbuds or turn on Beats headphones, and you&#8217;ll be able to use Fast Pair to quickly connect and seamlessly switch between Android phones&#8230;<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.androidcentral.com\/accessories\/headphones\/beats-headphones-and-earbuds-surprisingly-support-these-android-exclusive-features\">Source<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Beats headphones and earbuds surprisingly support these Android-exclusive features https:\/\/www.androidcentral.com\/accessories\/headphones\/beats-headphones-and-earbuds-surprisingly-support-these-android-exclusive-features Publish Date: 2026-05-10 11:10:00 Source&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":243037,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"fifu_image_url":"https:\/\/cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net\/gCEUCVnEG4Xv8pnVU9Pgtd-2560-80.jpg","fifu_image_alt":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[46],"tags":[70,86,102],"class_list":["post-243036","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-android","tag-google","tag-samsung","tag-sony"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/243036"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=243036"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/243036\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":243038,"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/243036\/revisions\/243038"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/243037"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=243036"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=243036"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=243036"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
