Microsoft Wireless headset on PC

Hi carty1974! My name is Ricardo an independent advisor ready to help you with this situation!

The Xbox Accessories app does not currently support headset connections via Bluetooth. To manage your Xbox Wireless Headset settings on your PC, connect the headset via the USB-C cable, or using the Xbox Wireless Adapter for Windows.

Yes, you can use the Xbox One wireless headset chat mixer on PC if you have the USB wireless adapter.

To do this, you will need to follow these steps:

1. Connect the USB wireless adapter to your PC.
   
2. Turn on your Xbox One wireless headset and hold down the power button on the headset until it starts flashing. This puts the headset in pairing mode.
   
3. Press the pairing button on the USB wireless adapter until the LED starts flashing.
   
4. Once the LED on the USB wireless adapter stops flashing and stays lit, the headset is paired with your PC.
   
5. Open the Xbox Accessories app on your PC, and click on the "Xbox One Wireless Controller" device.
   
6. From there, you can adjust the chat mixer settings to your liking.
   

Once you have completed these steps, you should be able to use the chat mixer on your Xbox One wireless headset with your PC.

Hi there,

According to Corsair HS70 WIRELESS Gaming Headset specifications, that headset
is only compatible with PC and PS4.

I used the wireless adapter to connect the the joystick to the PC, with that done all i needed to do was connect the headset to the controller and the windows would recognize it as Headset (Xbox360 wireless receiver for windows). But i contacted microsoft
support about the X1 headset and i was told that it will work fine as well, and i already ordered it. When it arrives i will report the result here.

I get what you're saying but my point is that Microsoft, being the creator of Xbox & Windows (the latter being the preferred OS for gaming), is ultimately responsible for failing to incorporate a broader range of support for wireless headsets in their console.
The headset has zero problem connecting to my PC wirelessly through the USB unit. I don't think it'd require much effort on Microsoft's part to expand Xbox One's ability to do the same. One could enlighten me though.

You tell me which is more likely; A) Microsoft will buy every company that makes headsets and force them to make headsets based on their products (kinda like what apple did with Beats headsets) or B) Microsoft will provide each specific headset manufacturer
that wants to make a headset for the Xbox One, the specific to make a wireless communication necessary to communicate for the Xbox One, as Microsoft has already done for numerous headset manufacturers.

If you want a wireless headset for your Xbox One, you can buy one right now. Just check with the headset manufacturer first. I doubt Sony is going to reach out to Microsoft/Xbox and say "Hey, we'd like to make a headset that works with your Xbox" but it's
up to Sony to do that. Blaming Xbox for not working with brand "XYZ" headset doesn't seem feasible to me.

And in regards to PC headsets, well again, its the headset manufacturer that has to make their own drivers for their own headset to work on a PC.
