Can Apple Vision Pro be used with Bose or other non apple including beats head phones

I have tried pairing multiple listening devices that are not Apple. At first I assumed the issue was my devices are much older, so I ordered a new set of Quiet Comfort Ultra over the ear head set and straight out of the box not recognized by apple vision pro.


any maybe have an answer? I am sooo trying to look past all the issues with the Vision pro, but if I can not listen in privacy, Then I guess I have to return them.


Apple support for the vision pro is extremely underwhelming. I own Mack books, apple watch iphones, air buds. The vision pro so far is a disaster.

They do work with the Apple Vision Pro. However, you do not add them from the Bluetooth menu. Instead go to Settings > Accessibility, and add it as a Other headphone device. It will then pair. You will get a pop up stating the Bose headphones are not optimum for the Apple Vision Pro. There will be no spatial sound stereo. But they do work. I thought I wanted them for the airplane with the Apple Vision Pro, however I will probably use the AirPods instead since they support the spatial sound.
