If you’re wondering how to connect AirPods to Asus ROG Ally then look no further.
The ASUS ROG Ally is a welcome addition to the handheld gaming market. This thing is packed to the teeth with high-end specs and impressive features. The ROG Ally functions essentially like a portable gaming PC and so has brilliant connectivity. We’ve already seen how you can hook up a PS5 controller, run Steam games or dock it to a monitor or TV.
Well, the good news is that this extends to being able to connect AirPods to the device. They are even arguably some of the best accessories for the ASUS ROG Ally. Let’s break down how to do it.
How to connect AirPods to Asus ROG Ally
Because the ROG Ally runs on Windows 11, the process of connecting any external BlueTooth device, including AirPods, is pretty simple.
- Go to the Windows 11 Desktop and click the Start Menu.
- Type in ‘Bluetooth’ in the search bar and select ‘Bluetooth & devices’.
- Activate ‘Bluetooth’ by pressing ‘Add device’.
- Open your AirPods case and hold down the button on the back.
- A green light will start flashing to indicate that they are in pairing mode. They should then appear as a BlueTooth device on your Ally.
- Click on your AirPods from the listed devices to pair with them.
Your AirPods will now be connected to your ROG Ally. They should by default be selected as the sound output device. While other picks from our list of the best headsets for the ASUS Rog Ally might have superior gaming ability, there is no denying that Airpods are among the most portable. If you’re going to be sneaking a quick gaming session in on your train to work, you don’t want to be hooking up a set of Turtle Beaches.
If you are intending to take your Ally on the go regularly make sure you invest in one of the best cases for the ASUS ROG Ally. This will ensure it is kept well protected as, unfortunately, it does not come with a case included.
