How to inspect wireless Bluetooth headsets through China Inspection and Quarantine Inspection, Factory Certification, and Testing? Headphone inspection standards and methods

Walking on the road with my headphones on, the hustle and bustle of the world seems to be cut off from me. A few years ago, wired headphones dominated the market. Now, with the rapid development of technology, wireless Bluetooth headphones have rapidly captured the market with their convenient user experience and strong sense of technology. So, how do wireless Bluetooth headphones undergo a rigorous inspection process from production to delivery to ensure their quality? What are the inspection standards and methods for wireless Bluetooth headphones?

1. Bluetooth headset inspection sampling standards and plans

Third-party inspection companies usually follow international standards ISO 2859-1 Perform sampling inspection to ensure that the results are statistically representative. Common sampling plans include:

• Inspection type : Normal inspection, one sampling

• Sampling level : G-III or S-4

• Acceptable Quality Limit (AQL) :

  • Extremely severe defect: 0 (not allowed)

  • Serious flaws: 0.25

  • Minor defects: 0.4

• Sampling quantity :

  • If level G-III is implemented, 125 items will be sampled;

  • If the S-4 level is implemented, 13 items will be sampled.

This sampling method is widely used in factory inspections and bulk cargo inspections to ensure that quality assessments are both efficient and well-founded.

2. Basic safety, function and workmanship inspection of Bluetooth headsets

During the inspection process, inspectors need to conduct a comprehensive inspection of the product, covering packaging, appearance, assembly, function and safety.

2.1 Sales Packaging Inspection

• Check whether the color box/PVC bag is intact and without damage;

• The printed content is correct and free of defects;

• The barcode is clear and scannable, and the information is accurate.

2.2 Appearance Inspection

• The body has no scratches, paint peeling, color difference, mildew or rust;

• The structure is free of deformation, cracking or damage;

• There are no abnormalities in buttons, switches, knobs, screws, etc.;

• There are no foreign objects or obvious workmanship defects overall.

2.3 Component and Assembly Inspection

• All accessories (such as instruction manual, warranty card, earphone case, etc.) are complete and without omission;

• The assembly structure is stable, neither too tight nor too loose;

• The shell seams are tight and well aligned, and the product is placed stably.

2.4 Cleanliness inspection

• There is no dirt, glue marks or color spots on the surface of the product;

• No injection molding burrs or flash.

2.5 Label and tag inspection

• All labels must not be missing, mis-attached, upside down or in the wrong position.

2.6 Printing and surface treatment inspection

• The printed pattern is clear, without missing, blurring or misregistering;

• The paint/plating layer is uniform without peeling, accumulation or missing parts.

2.7 Basic Function Test

• All advertised functions must be tested in practice to ensure there are no defects or faults;

• No noise, abnormal vibration or key failure;

• Repeatedly turn the machine on and off 5 times without any abnormality.

2.8 Safety performance inspection

• Good waterproof performance, no risk of leakage;

• No accessible hazardous parts or sharp edges;

• The structure is solid, the safety lock is effective, and there is no safety hazard caused by looseness.

3. Internal process inspection

During factory inspections or random disassembly inspections , a detailed assessment of internal processes is also required:

• The solder joints are even and firm, without cold solder joints or false solder joints;

• The internal circuit layout is neat, and the wire duct is smooth without sharp edges;

• The grounding is reliable and the power cord is effectively fixed;

• There are no extraneous foreign matter, loose parts or structural defects.

IV. On-site test items

Inspectors will simulate user usage in the actual environment and perform multiple on-site tests, such as:

1. Barcode scanning test (outer box and sales packaging);

2. Odor inspection (product and packaging);

3. Nameplate wear test (water rub and hexane rub);

4. Dimensions and weight verification ;

5. Verification of complex functions (such as noise reduction and voice assistant);

6. Assembly and drop adaptability testing ;

7. Electrical performance test : input voltage/current, efficiency, output power, temperature rise, etc.;

8. Charging and discharging test (earphones and charging box);

9. LED indicator and button operation test ;

10. Tighten/release test (to test structural durability).

5. Choose professional third-party inspection services

This type of professional Internet+ testing platform provides one-stop quality services covering product inspection, factory inspection, customs clearance , etc. Its advantages include:

• High cost-effectiveness, fast order scheduling, and same-day reporting ;

• The LBS positioning system enables accurate matching of service areas;

• Online video inspection allows real-time viewing of the inspection site and improves transparency of inspections.
