After we experienced some issues, we want to know your experiences with using wireless headphones with the Nintendo Switch.
Are you experiencing problems using the new Bluetooth audio feature on your Nintendo Switch? If so, you’re not the only one. Over four years since its launch, the Nintendo Switch finally comes with Bluetooth audio support, allowing you to use the handheld console with a pair of wireless headphones for cable-free sound. It’s a feature users have been practically begging for since the Switch first appeared in 2017 – but now that it’s here, we’ve noticed some issues with the technology. Having tested it out for ourselves, we found the over-ear Sony WH-1000XM4 sounded great, while the true wireless Sony WF-1000XM4 suffered from a persistent crackling sound. We had the same problem using the Beats Studio Buds; meanwhile, the on-ear Beats Solo Pro worked just fine. Initially, we thought the issue may be down to a problem with true wireless earbuds specifically, but using the Switch with the Lypertek PurePlay Z3 didn’t come with any audio distortion at all.
