Can Bose SoundLink
®
on-ear Bluetooth
®
headphones be used for gaming?
Gaming consoles that have Bluetooth technology typically use HFP for
communications. We are unaware of a console that implements A2DP,
which is necessary for audio. So, Bose SoundLink
®
on-ear Bluetooth
®
headphones would only work for communications.
In general, the audio/video delay for gaming could be annoying. This is a
subjective measure. Customers who play games where their actions are
synchronized with audio will most likely notice the A/V delay. Customers
that play more casual games with sound effects (like Words with Friends)
will most likely not have an issue.

apps?
Yes. Pressing the multi-function button for 3 seconds will initiate voice
recognition on mobile devices that support this feature.
Can Bose SoundLink
®
on-ear Bluetooth
