Hi,

My PC have a 4.1 bluetooth adaptor. Now, these new headphones are bluetooth 5.0.

Can I connect to a v5.0 device using a v4.1 device?
 
Solution
Bluetooth is backwards compatible, so you can continue using your existing Bluetooth 4.2 and older devices with a Bluetooth 5.0. And, when you buy new Bluetooth 5.0-enabled peripherals, they’ll work better thanks to your Bluetooth 5.0. Therefore, they still should work with your 4.1 device but would be better/more beneficial if you had v5.0.
