Possible negatives of the Xbox One headset adapter

3.8
Not all models of headsets are compatible with the upcoming head adapter, many popular headsets are flatout unusable including even the official Xbox 360 Wireless Headset and the respective Bluetooth variation. Any headset that uses the connector shown in the below is also a NO GO for usage.

A 2.5mm-to-3.5mm adapter cable is included but will only handle chat audio, if you want game audio you need additional cables.

For complete details on the adapter please refer to the Microsoft accessory page for this product below.

Why can they not just make wireless headsets like they did for the 360. I loved the bluetooth looking one.

Aspers I think the new adapaters on Xbox One are just awkward, i dunno what was wrong with the 360 updated ones


Nothing was wrong with the 360 version.

There is no need to change something when it isn't broken.

PM-Kasper Hope this will work with my x12s


It will work with most turtle beaches and astro's . I have The adapter already and it works great with my X12s and A40s


Have it already? Yea right, how did you get your hands on an official xbox one headset chat adapter if it's not even due until march... ?



turtle beach was giving them away for free with proof of purchase of headset so it is possible
