The Xbox One console does not support Bluetooth audio natively , so you cannot directly connect Bluetooth headphones to it via Bluetooth

. However, there are several workarounds to use Bluetooth headphones with Xbox One:

Methods to Connect Bluetooth Headphones to Xbox One

• Use a Bluetooth Transmitter:
  Plug a Bluetooth transmitter into the 3.5mm headphone jack on your Xbox One controller. Then pair your Bluetooth headphones with the transmitter as you would with any Bluetooth device. This is the most common and reliable method to get wireless audio from Xbox One to Bluetooth headphones

• Connect via TV Bluetooth:
  If your TV supports Bluetooth audio output, connect your Xbox One to the TV via HDMI, then pair your Bluetooth headphones directly to the TV. The game audio will come through the TV to your headphones

• Use the Xbox App on PC or Mobile:
  You can stream your Xbox One to the Xbox app on a Windows PC or mobile device connected to the same network. Then connect your Bluetooth headphones to that PC or mobile device to hear audio and chat (though game audio and chat may not work simultaneously)

• Use Xbox Wireless Headset:
  Microsoft’s Xbox Wireless Headset connects directly to Xbox consoles using Xbox Wireless protocol, not Bluetooth, but it also supports Bluetooth for mobile devices. This headset is fully compatible and offers the best experience, but it is a separate purchase

Important Notes

• Bluetooth headphones cannot connect directly to Xbox One because the console lacks Bluetooth audio support

• Using a Bluetooth transmitter or TV Bluetooth connection only transmits audio; microphone functionality may not be supported unless using specialized equipment

• The Xbox app method allows chat through Bluetooth headphones connected to a phone or PC but does not transmit game audio directly to the headphones

In summary, to use Bluetooth headphones with Xbox One, you typically need a Bluetooth transmitter connected to the controller, connect via your TV’s Bluetooth, or use the Xbox app on a PC or phone. Direct Bluetooth pairing with the console is not possible. For full wireless audio and mic support, consider an Xbox Wireless Headset.
