How To Use Android Phone As Computer Speaker by Opistorincos(m): 12:44pm On May 21, 2016
So I was watching a really interesting movie on my laptop yesterday when 'my village people' decided to attack my laptop speakers thereby making it useless i.e. it stopped working in the middle of operation, I was so devastated not because I do not have the money to repair the spoilt speaker nor the absence of an earbud that I can easily connect to my laptop earpiece jack in order to continue my movie, the problem was the fact that I am not the earbud type, I prefer watching movies with loud speakers in order to enjoy the actions to the fullest. My Bluboo X550 that is equipped with a really good and loud speaker(the type that can be used for a house party) was right beside me, it was just lying there with nothing to offer, then reality struck me, if I should repair the laptop speaker for the amount i see as a token, I will be 2k poorer that week and as a student there is the need for me to improvise in order to minimize my expenses while maximizing my savings. I picked up my phone, headed straight to Google in order to look for ways I can possibly use my phone's speaker as my PC's speaker. The result of my search is what brought about this tutorial which is about how you can use your android phone as a computer speaker, simply follow the comprehensive tutorial below and you will never have to worry about defective PC speakers anymore.
