Beats Flex mode is a feature that allows your earbuds to automatically switch between earbuds and neckband modes. This mode is convenient for people who want to easily switch between listening to music or taking hands-free calls. However, some users may find it annoying or want to customize their listening experience. If you’re one of them, don’t worry – turning off Flex mode is relatively simple.

Canceling Active Noise Cancellation
When you’re in the midst of a noise-filled environment and Active Noise Cancellation (ANC) isn’t doing the trick, it’s natural to want to turn it off. But exactly how do you disable ANC on your Beats Flex earbuds or Beats Pro earbuds?
Disabling ANC on Beats Flex earbuds
To disable ANC on Beats Flex earbuds, follow these simple steps:
- Go to your Beats Flex earbuds and press the “b” button until you enter the settings menu.
- Navigate to the “Noise Cancellation” option and toggle the switch to the “Off” position.
- You’ll know ANC is off when you see the switch turn white.
Cancelling ANC on Beats Pro earbuds
If you’re using Beats Pro earbuds, the process is slightly different. To disable ANC, follow these steps:
- Press and hold the “b” and “c” buttons simultaneously until the LED light starts flashing.
- Release the buttons and then press the “b” button again until you see the LED light turn white.
- ANC is now disabled on your Beats Pro earbuds.
Remember, when ANC is off, you’ll still be able to hear ambient noise around you. But if you’re in a super quite environment and want to focus on your music, disabling ANC is a great way to do just that.
Adjusting EQ Settings
Did you know that equalization (EQ) settings can significantly impact the sound quality of your Beats earbuds? In this section, we’ll explore how to customize and reset these settings to get the most out of your earbuds.
Customizing EQ Settings for Sounds
The EQ settings on your Beats earbuds can be tailored to enhance specific sounds or music genres. For instance, if you’re an avid hip-hop listener, you might want to boost the low-end frequencies to feel the beat. Conversely, if you’re more into classical music, you may want to emphasize the high-end frequencies to bring out the nuances of the instruments.
To customize EQ settings for sounds, follow these simple steps:
- Open the Beats app on your device.
- Select the EQ settings icon (often represented by a graphic equalizer or a pitch curve).
- Tap on the “Customize” or “Edit” option.
- Use the frequency adjustment sliders to fine-tune the EQ settings.
- Save your custom EQ settings for future use.
Resetting EQ Settings to Default
Sometimes, you may want to start from scratch and reset your EQ settings to their default values. This can be especially helpful if you’re struggling to get the sound just right or if you’re using a new pair of earbuds.
To reset EQ settings to default, follow these quick steps:
- Open the Beats app on your device.
- Select the EQ settings icon.
- Tap on the “Reset” or “Default” option.
- Confirm that you want to reset the EQ settings.
- Your earbuds will now revert to their default EQ settings.
By adjusting and resetting your EQ settings, you can unlock a more personalized listening experience that matches your unique taste in music.
Disconnecting Beats Flex
When you need to take a break from your music or want to free up your phone’s resources, disconnecting your Beats Flex is a straightforward process. In this section, we’ll walk you through the steps to disconnect your Beats Flex from your phone and stop it from playing music.
Disconnecting Beats Flex from Phone
To disconnect your Beats Flex from your phone, simply go to your phone’s Bluetooth settings and look for your Beats Flex device. You can usually find it listed under Connected devices or Devices. Tap on it, and then select Disconnect or Forget device. This will sever the connection between your Beats Flex and your phone, and you’ll no longer receive any audio signals.
Stopping Beats Flex from Playing
Stopping your Beats Flex from playing music is just as easy. You can either use the controls on your Beats Flex earbuds or your phone to pause or stop the music. Here are a few ways to do so:
