No, it is a problem either with your iPhone, your procedures or with the devices you are trying to pair.


Follow these instructions→Pair a third-party Bluetooth accessory with your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch - Apple Support


And note that if the accessories have been previously paired with another iPhone or similar device they may need to be reset, because most Bluetooth accessories can only be paired to a small number of devices.
