Not sure where to put that cable to charge your Beats Flex headphones? Your Beats Flex earbuds come with a USB-C charging cable that can easily connect to any USB-C adapter or port, including those in modern MacBooks. If you want to charge your Beats Flex by connecting it to a wall outlet, you'll just need a USB-C power adapter, available at Apple and any electronics retailer. This How.com.vn article will show you how to charge your Beats Flex earphones with a USB-C cable.

  1. How.com.vn English: Step 1 Turn your earphones off.
    On the right control module (it looks like a box that's found along the cord), press the Power button.
    • If the headphones are on, you'll see a light on the Power button that indicates how much battery charge is left. A white light means that more than an hour remains; a red light means there's less than an hour left; a blinking red light means that your Beats Flex needs to charge.
    • Any lights on it should turn off to show that it's off.
  2. How.com.vn English: Step 2 Plug the USB-C cable into the port on the other control module.
    This cable came with the earphones when you purchased it. But if you don't have the original cable, you can find a USB-C cable at any electronics retailer.
    • If you have an Android phone or tablet, you should be able to use that USB-C cable to charge your earbuds.

  3. How.com.vn English: Step 3 Connect the other end to a power source or adapter.
    You can connect the other side of the cable to your MacBook Pro if it also has a USB-C port for charging (you don't want to use your MacBook's 60w charger, but you can connect directly to your computer), or use a power adapter to plug directly into a power source.[1]
    • You can purchase a USB-C adapter at any electronics retailer. It plugs into the wall on one end and allows you to connect via USB-C instead of only connecting USB ports.
    • Keep these connected for about 90 minutes for a full charge. A quick 10-minute charge will get you about 1.5 hours of listening time. A full charge lasts for about 12 hours.
    • While your Beats Flex headphones are charging, the LED will flash red. When they are done charging, the LED will turn white.
