Microsoft today unexpectedly announced a welcome new accessory for our Xbox: The Xbox Wireless Headphones will connect wirelessly to both our consoles (Xbox Series X | S or Xbox One)via the Xbox Wireless protocol, which to our PCs and mobile devices via Bluetooth.

These new headphones have an elegant design characterized by an original touch: to adjust the volume and chat /game balance there are no classic "wheel" present on the other headsets, but we will have to rotate the external discs of the headphones, as shown in the video below. Another touch of class is the retractable microphone for when we don't have to talk to friends; all with 15 hours of autonomy.

The headphones, which have an absolutely competitive price in their range, 99.99 Euros,will arrive on March 16 but are already pre-ordered from this page of the Microsoft Store.

We leave you below to the official details, the presentation video and a set of images.
