Can You Connect Bluetooth Headphones to the Xbox Series X|S?

Gaming headsets deliver immersive audio while allowing you to use your voice to communicate with other players. Wireless headsets offer a degree of freedom that wired ones can’t match, but most require a dedicated USB dongle to ditch the cable.

  • Bluetooth Headsets Not Natively Supported

Microsoft made the decision not to support Bluetooth headsets in the Xbox Series X and S consoles. That means that you can’t natively connect your Bluetooth headset to your console or controller. You can still technically connect a Bluetooth headset to your controller’s 3.5mm stereo jack (which passes through audio) if you use a Bluetooth transmitter like the Uberwith Bluetooth Xbox One Transmitter.

Aftermarket Bluetooth transmitters are best avoided. They often introduce latency, which is disorientating in single-player games and could put you at a serious disadvantage in multiplayer.

This solution will need to be charged periodically, and there’s no support for headset microphones (Instead, you’ll find a microphone on the transmitter itself.).

How to Find Values With INDEX in Microsoft Excel
