Do they plug in the headphone slot or is it an hdmi thingy?

    Headphone jack or Bluetooth (if your laptop has BT). USB speakers also exist, but those aren't a good choice.

        Just fyi, if you're trying to game you might have some horrendous lag through Bluetooth.

        You put whatever BT device you're trying to connect in pairing mode and then add them in the Bluetooth settings on your laptop. The device you're trying to connect will have instructions on how to enter pairing mode.

          just to add in to this, once you do this the first time, those blue tooth speakers will automatically pair to the laptop when powered on and in range. which is convenient, but also leads to hilarious stories where people blast stuff to speakers in another room accidentally instead of discretely into their headphones.
