If you're a tech enthusiast or someone who loves to jam to music, then you're perhaps already familiar with AirPods. There are very few brands that can compete with the audio quality that these wireless earphones can provide.
They are top-of-the-line products that are worth the investment. Very few people have ever gone for an alternative after purchasing them once.
You may also be the proud owner of a Dell laptop or have at least heard of the brand. Today, we are going to tell you how to connect AirPods to Dell laptop to get the best out of both devices.

Now let's get one thing straight, right from the get-go. If you don't have a pair of Airpods, they're not technically wireless earbuds. Sure, the cords are gone, but there is still an open circuit with a portion that's wire-framed and sits behind your neck. Don't be surprised if this wire gets caught in your collar or starts to chafe at some point. It's also a bit annoying when you get caught on door handles and such, which is why it's great that the Airpods sit so well in your ears. If they get stuck, all you have to do is pop them out of your ear and shake them free - no tugging or pulling involved!
While we're on the subject, you'll also want to keep an eye on how well your Airpods stay seated in your ears. A lot of earbuds come with different sized end pieces that can help to create a better seal for increased sound quality and/or noise cancellation. With Airpods, they're all one-size fits all (for now), so while the fit might be snug enough to not fall out, it's possible that you'll go for a run while having them in and they could pop out of your ears. It's happened to us before, but not often!
As for sound quality, Airpods are pretty much on-par with industry standards. Some people might say that they're lacking in bass, and others say they're totally crisp. All we can tell you is that we've found them to be very comfortable, and the sound quality is good enough for us regardless.
Many people are using the Apple AirPods to consume audio content, but a lot of Dell laptops ship with a single 3.5mm headphone jack. This means that you will be required to use a dongle for any device that does not have a Lightning connector, which includes the AirPods. There is an interesting article on how to work around this from another website, but I found the information there a bit scattered. This post will be a bit more focused on providing some solutions for those of us looking to connect our AirPods to a Dell laptop.
First, the most common route people go is using a 3.5-to-3.5mm adapter. This doesn't solve the problem, since the Dell laptop still only has a headphone jack for one of its jacks. There is an easy workaround though, just get a 3.5-to-3.5mm adapter and plug it into your AirPods' charging case's lightning port. I understand this isn't everyone's cup of tea, and having to bring an extra adapter along with you is kind of annoying.
There is another route that can be taken as well, using Bluetooth. It isn't the best method in terms of sound quality, but it will allow your AirPods to sync up with your Dell laptop and play audio for both ears. The only downside is that you will have to deal with the occasional stutter here and there.
AirPods require a device to have Bluetooth connectivity to connect with them. Thankfully, all the recent laptops by Dell have this feature, so they are compatible with these wireless earphones. Follow the given steps and you will easily be able to use it on the laptop with ease.
The first thing that you need to do is go to your laptop's device settings. You can quickly access it by going to the start menu. In case your device has a Windows 10 OS, you will be able to find the settings right on the corner on top of the power sign resembling a cog.
Click it, and you will find the main menu. Access 'Devices' from it.
Once you're in the sub-menu, you will find many options, through which you can connect different gadgets to the laptop. One of them should be labeled 'Bluetooth & other devices.' Click on it, and you will find the option to connect to the AirPods.

In the 'Bluetooth & other devices' section, you will find a gigantic plus sign with 'Add Bluetooth or other devices' written next to it. Before you click on it, turn on the feature by pressing the button right below it. Once you click on the sign, it will automatically start looking for other devices with the same feature.
Soon enough, you will see another box open up that shows all the devices within the vicinity of your laptop. You need to identify your AirPods by their device name and press on it. Then, you will see the connect option that you will have to press to connect the laptop to them.
Within a few minutes of pressing 'Connect', the laptop will finish pairing up with your AirPods. Once the process is complete, take out the earphones from the casing and plug them into your ears. You will hear a sound, which is a sign that the earpieces have acknowledged the Bluetooth connection.
Finally, open a soundtrack you want to listen to or a movie you want to watch. The audio will come streaming through the earpieces.

We need to inform you about some of the most common problems you may face when using these earphones. Keep on reading to know more about these issues and how you can solve them.
AirPods are considered to be one of the best options among its competitors. It provides crystal clear sound that fully immerses the user. Therefore, the audio quality turning patchy or the presence of foreign sound are clear indicators of the product underperforming.
In case this issue turns up, see if any devices or structures are blocking the way between the earpieces and the device to which they are connected. Remove them, and the audio quality should improve.
If the problem persists, see if you're too close to the Wi-Fi or a microwave. Move away, as it can interfere with the performance of the AirPods.

One of the niftiest features of AirPods is its ability to sense when you put it into your ears. It plays and pauses the music depending on the earpiece being inside your ear or not. The only reason the detection feature won't work is if it isn't enabled on your device.
To fix this problem, simply access the Bluetooth settings of your device and turn on the feature. The auto-detection mode should work smoothly and without any issues afterward.
Users often seem to find their AirPods not connecting to their devices out of the blue. Well, no need to panic. The solution is quite simple. Start with putting both earpieces to the charging case and let it sit there for 10 seconds. Then bring them out and try them on your ears.
In case it still isn't working, just restart the Bluetooth in your device and repeat the previously mentioned method. In most cases, your problem should be resolved.
The Dell Inspiron 17 has the multimedia power to provide you with such an experience. But why should you enjoy this high quality audio only when watching movies on your laptop?
Well, what if we told you that you could have the best quality speakers on a laptop, but you could also use them to your advantage when listening to music from your Apple Airpods?
It's true! By connecting your Airpods to a Dell Inspiron 17 or another compatible device, you can have that great speaker sound without having to carry around an extra Bluetooth speaker with you.
In the past, you might have been under the impression that AirPods only connect to Apple products. Now that we have shown you how to connect AirPods to Dell laptop, you can easily use it on such gadgets.
If you think the process is too complicated, don't worry. It's just a one-time procedure. Next time, turn on the Bluetooth of both devices, and they will connect automatically.
Now, you can stream your favorite songs on your AirPods regardless of the device your using. Enjoying your tunes will never seem more heavenly!
