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 problem is when the Skullcandy Sesh Evo earbuds fail to pair correctly, resulting in audio only coming from one earbud.

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:

Pairing your new Skullcandy Sesh Evo earbuds is a straightforward process, whether you’re using an iPhone or an Android device. Follow these steps:

  1. Remove the earbuds from their packaging and place them in 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 indicates that they are syncing with each other.
  3. Once the earbuds have successfully synced and paired with each other, the left earbud will start flashing red and blue alternately, signifying 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. Here are some quick fixes to common pairing issues:

  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:

In the standard pairing process, both earbuds should sync with each other before connecting to your phone as a single Bluetooth device. However, there are instances when both earbuds fail to sync properly, resulting in incomplete pairing.

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 can lead to unintended pairing issues.

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. Unpair your earbuds from your phone by accessing your phone’s Bluetooth list and removing the earbuds. If you have two Sesh Evo devices registered, forget both of them.
  2. After removing the earbuds from the Bluetooth list, turn off your phone’s Bluetooth (this step is important).
  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. They will flash blue and then red during the reset. Place both earbuds back in the case, where the red LEDs will indicate that they are charging.
  5. Remove both earbuds from the case simultaneously after the reset. 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. You should see “Sesh Evo” in the list. Tap it to start the pairing process.

During the pairing process, you will receive a confirmation prompt twice; make sure to approve both requests.

Upon successful pairing, you will see two Sesh Evo devices listed in your paired Bluetooth devices, one for each earbud, both showing “Connected.”

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