How to Change the Bluetooth Name on an Infinix Phone

Bluetooth remains one of the most reliable features found on smartphones today, including Infinix phones. While it may not be the top choice for large data transfers, Bluetooth isn't just for sending files, you know.

It’s commonly used to connect your phone to other devices like smartwatches, wireless earbuds, Bluetooth speakers, and more. However, there's one small detail you shouldn’t overlook, your Bluetooth name.

By default, the Bluetooth name is usually based on your phone model. This can be confusing, especially in crowded areas where multiple people might have the same phone. To avoid connecting to the wrong device, it’s recommended to change your Bluetooth name to something more recognizable.

If you're unsure how to do that, don’t worry! In this article, we’ll guide you through the simple steps to change your Bluetooth name on an Infinix phone.

How to Change the Bluetooth Name

Changing the Bluetooth name on a phone is actually quite easy, including on Infinix devices. To make it clearer, follow the step-by-step guide below:

1. Open the Settings menu, either from the notification bar or directly from the app drawer.
2. Tap More connections to access additional connectivity settings.
3. Select Bluetooth to open the Bluetooth settings.
4. Make sure Bluetooth is turned on.
5. Once it's active, tap Device name.
6. Enter your preferred Bluetooth name.
7. Press RENAME to save the changes. Your Bluetooth name has now been successfully updated.

How to Rename a Connected Bluetooth Device

Besides changing your own device’s Bluetooth name, you can also rename connected devices. This is useful for identifying them more easily, especially in crowded environments.

However, note that this change only applies to your Infinix phone. It won’t affect how the device appears on other phones. Here’s how to do it:

1. Go to the Bluetooth page as shown in the previous steps.
2. Tap the bolt icon next to the name of the connected device.
3. In the top right corner, select the pencil (edit) icon.
4. Enter a new name for the device.
5. Tap RENAME to save it.

And that’s it! Renaming Bluetooth devices makes it easier to distinguish between multiple connections, avoiding confusion, especially in public spaces.

Although Bluetooth may not be the fastest option for transferring files, it remains a frequently used feature on smartphones.

For instance, when you're in a public area, Bluetooth allows you to connect your phone to wireless earbuds or pair your laptop with a Bluetooth mouse. This shows that Bluetooth is still essential for many users who prefer wireless convenience over tangled cables.

With Bluetooth, you can enjoy more freedom and comfort while doing everyday tasks.
