iPhone 12 bluetooth not pairing

My new phone will not pair with my Trekz headphones. The bluetooth worked with my old phone but will not show up on the 12. I've rebooted both devices and it still does not work

iPhone 12, iOS 14

Bluetooth ISSUE Hello, I am having Bluetooth connection issues with my iPhone 12 Pro Max. I could not been able to connect my iPhone to my headphones. (SCALCANDY). My iPhone does not see my headphones. Below what i did before asking this question. I checked my headphones with my iPhone XR - It works. I checked my headphones with my One Plus - It works. Then i checked Bluetooth versions - both iPhone 12 Pro Max and my Headphones support version 5. Lastly - i restarted my iPhone, updated to last version of iOS, reset network settings, but Bluetooth of my iPhone Does not see my Headphones. What is wrong with it? Why such expensive phone, do not see my headphones, but my old iPhone does? Both have the same iOS 14.2.1. (P.S. - could not select iPhone 12 Pro Max in device field, it does not exists here)
