Can Bluetooth headphones be connected to an Xbox One console?

Before that, we have to make a clarification. While the Xbox One does not support Bluetooth technology, the Xbox One S does.

Unfortunately, this does not mean that you can pair your headphones to the console directly.

To connect your Bluetooth headset to an Xbox …

You will have to do it through an accessory or additional Bluetooth device that allows you to connect to the 3.5mm audio jack.

What you didn’t expect (HERE COMES THE SURPRISE …) is that these adapters can allow you to connect more than one headphones and this is perfect for your split-screen games.

So for the price of an adapter, two people connect and you do not have to buy two headphones, yes, it is possible that the audio quality will decrease.

With these devices you have two options:

• Take the audio directly from the Xbox controller.
• Take the audio from the output of your TV.

Bluetooth to 3.5mm audio-jack adapters use a small cable that then leads to the device as such. It is useful to buy double-sided tape or stickers with glue on each side for greater comfort in using the control.

The Twelve South AirFly Duo sends the sound signal from the control socket (audio-jack) to your Bluetooth headphones. You can also connect two headphones, it charges via USB-C and has 20 hours of battery life.

• Pros: 20-hour battery life. High quality.
• Cons: It only comes in white and visually doesn’t work out very well with the Xbox controller. In addition, it does not have a volume controller although many of the headphones already come with that, it is not too much.

The MESEVEN transmitter can be used both as a Bluetooth signal transmitter or receiver, it is USB-charged and easily handled with phones, PCs, audio players and other devices.

• Pros: Affordable Price
• Cons: Low battery life

And the best for last, the Ugreen Bluetooth Transmitter.

A high-quality device at a good price that easily adds the audio function to your Xbox controller or any other device such as computers and televisions.

It also connects up to two headphones at the same time which can be very beneficial for your split-screen games.

• Pros: Best value for money. It supports up to two headphones at the same time and is quite aesthetic.
• Cons: It is not intuitive in its set-up but with the installation manual in hand it is achieved.

Yes, it is possible to use Wireless Headphones (not Bluetooth) for Xbox One.

As you already saw, although it is not possible to connect Bluetooth directly to your controller or the console, it is true that some manufacturers have decided to produce wireless headphones that are compatible with the Xbox One standard.
