The instructions are one page, use this app - it assumes that you have an apple (r) (tm) or google (r) (tm) phone. I have neither, I don't want my soul and my data to be up for sale. You can't use the phones without a smartphone, this wasn't advertised, I'm sending the phones back.
I have a desktop and a laptop and a dumbphone which work perfectly well with Bluetooth, but I can't even pair them to the phones without an app. How dumb is that?
I solicit suggestions for noise-cancelling headphones that don't require apple (r) (tm) or Google (r) (tm) to work.
Hi JP,
I have the PX7 (not s2), and they connect fine to my desktop and laptop using bluetooth. I can't see why your s2 wouldn't connect to a dumbphone - it's just a Bluetooth device. Also (almost more important for flying) you can use the included cables to connect to the audio socket on the plane, or a USB socket on any device.
You don't need an app to use the headphones.
