by

The Skullcandy Sesh Evo wireless earbuds are an excellent choice for those on a budget, offering impressive bass and a host of features that make them a worthwhile investment.

If you’re new to Skullcandy and need assistance with pairing your Sesh Evo earbuds, this concise guide is here to help.

Most Sesh earbuds typically pair seamlessly, but occasionally, users encounter some common pairing issues. One such issue is when the music only comes from one of the Skullcandy Sesh Evo earbuds due to a mismatched pair.

This particular issue isn’t exclusive to the Sesh Evo; it can occur with other Skullcandy earbuds as well. In this guide, we’ll walk you through the steps to pair your Sesh Evo earbuds.

How to Pair Skullcandy Sesh Evo Earbuds:

Whether you’re using an Android or iPhone, pairing your new Skullcandy Sesh Evo earbuds is a simple process. Follow these steps:

  1. After taking the earbuds out of the packaging, put them into the charging case. Check that the red LED lights on both earbuds are illuminated. Keep the case open.
  2. Remove both earbuds simultaneously, and they should start flashing blue lights in unison. This suggests that they are in tune with one another.
  3. The left earbud will begin to glow red and blue alternately when the earphones have successfully synchronized and associated with each other, indicating that they are ready to be paired with your Bluetooth device.
  4. On your smartphone, navigate to the Bluetooth devices menu, where you will see the option for “Sesh Evo.” Tap on it to initiate the pairing process.
  5. You will receive a Bluetooth pairing request on your phone; simply tap “Pair.”
  6. Once the pairing is complete, you will hear a voice prompt saying “Connected” from both earbuds.

 

Troubleshooting Skullcandy Sesh Evo Pairing Issues:

While the standard pairing process should work smoothly, some users may encounter difficulties. The following are some fast remedies for typical pairing problems:

  1. Ensure that both earbuds are charged and powered on. If one earbud is off, press and hold its button for 2 seconds to turn it on.
  2. Try repairing the earbuds with your phone by accessing the Bluetooth menu and selecting “Forget this device” for the Sesh Evo earbuds. Then, follow the standard pairing process again.
  3. If the problem persists, restart your phone and attempt to pair the earbuds again.

Solving Sesh Evo Earbuds Not Syncing Together:

Both earbuds should sync with one another throughout the regular pairing process before connecting to your phone as a single Bluetooth device. Nevertheless, there are times when the earbuds don’t sync correctly, leaving the pairing incomplete.

This is a common issue with Skullcandy Sesh Evo and similar models. The reason behind this behavior is that Skullcandy has designed these earbuds to be used in mono mode as well, where each earbud can be paired separately to your phone and used individually. This may result in inadvertent pairing problems.

When both earbuds fail to sync before pairing, audio may only come from one earbud, often the left one. This can be confusing for users unfamiliar with the mono mode feature.

How to Sync Sesh Evo Earbuds Together:

The solution to this issue is straightforward—unpair the earbuds and perform a power cycle to start fresh. Follow these steps:

  1. Go into your phone’s Bluetooth list and take out your earbuds to unpair them from your phone. If you have two Sesh Evo devices registered, forget both of them.
  2. Turn off the Bluetooth on your phone after deleting the earbuds from the list (this step is critical).
  3. Power off both Sesh earbuds by removing them from the case and holding each earbud’s button for 4 seconds. The LED lights will flash red and blue before turning off. Repeat this process for both earbuds.
  4. Reset your Sesh Evo earbuds by touching and holding both earbuds together for 10 seconds. During the reset, they will glow blue first, and then red. Place both earbuds back in the case, where the red LEDs will indicate that they are charging.
  5. After the reset, simultaneously take out both earphones from the case. The blue LEDs on both earbuds will flash simultaneously as they sync.
  6. Once the earbuds are successfully synced, the blue LEDs will stop flashing, and the left earbud will begin flashing red and blue, indicating that they are ready to pair with your phone.
  7. Finally, enable Bluetooth on your phone and search for discovered devices in the Bluetooth menu. “Sesh Evo” ought should be visible in the list. Tap it to start the pairing process.

You will get two confirmation prompts during the matching process; be sure to accept both of them.

After a successful pairing, your associated Bluetooth devices will list two Sesh Evo devices—one for each earbud—both of which will display the message “Connected.”

Now, you can enjoy uninterrupted, high-quality music with your Skullcandy Sesh Evo wireless earbuds.
