For a better viewing experience, typically the user is not too far from the smartphone, i.e. the wireless headset is not too far from the smartphone. During the process of watching the video, sometimes the user leaves the smart phone for something (such as going to a restroom), so that the wireless headset controls the electronic device to lock the display screen.
