To use Bluetooth headphones with a Samsung TV, first check Settings > Sound > Sound Output for Bluetooth Speaker List. If it appears, put the headphones in pairing mode, select them in the list, and choose Pair and Connect. Menu labels and feature availability vary by TV model, software, and region, so use your model’s manual if the path differs.
Check whether your Samsung TV supports Bluetooth headphones
Open Settings > Sound > Sound Output and look for Bluetooth Speaker List. Samsung says that this option indicates Bluetooth support. Its absence does not by itself identify which alternatives your TV supports; check the model’s manual and inspect the actual ports before choosing another connection method. Samsung’s US Bluetooth-device guide explains how to check support and what to do if the TV lacks Bluetooth.
Pair Bluetooth headphones with the TV
- Put the headphones into Bluetooth pairing or discoverable mode. The method differs by headphone model; consult its manual if needed.
- On the TV, open the Bluetooth audio-device list. On many recent models, the path is Settings > All Settings > Sound > Sound Output > Bluetooth Speaker List.
- Select your headphones, then choose Pair and Connect when prompted.
Samsung’s US general route is Menu > Settings > Sound > Sound Output > Bluetooth Speaker List, but it notes that pairing varies by model. Samsung Australia lists these year-based menu paths for Australian products; they may differ in other regions:
- 2023–2026: Settings > All Settings > Sound > Sound Output > Bluetooth Speaker List.
- 2022: Menu > Settings > All Settings > Sound > Sound Output > Bluetooth Speaker List.
- 2018–2021: Settings > Sound > Sound Output > Bluetooth Speaker List.
- 2017: Settings > Sound > Sound Output > Speaker List.
- 2016: Settings > Sound > Expert Settings > Wireless Speaker Manager > Bluetooth Audio Devices.
- 2015: Menu > Sound > Speaker Settings > Bluetooth Headphones.
These paths come from Samsung Australia’s headphone instructions, which state that their information applies to Australian products. For another country or a model whose menus have changed, check the TV manual or the local Samsung support instructions.

If Bluetooth headphones do not appear or connect

- Some headphones made exclusively for mobile devices may not pair with a TV.
- Bluetooth audio can have lip-sync errors. The connection may also drop if the headphones are too far away; walls, corners, furniture, and radio interference can affect the signal.
- Samsung Australia says Bluetooth audio cannot be used at the same time as Wi-Fi Speaker Surround Setup (also called Surround) or TV SoundConnect. This is regional guidance, so verify the limitation for your model.
For device compatibility and troubleshooting guidance, see Samsung US and Samsung Australia.
If your TV does not have a Bluetooth option
A Bluetooth audio adapter may work if the TV has an audio output that matches the adapter’s input. Samsung identifies a 3.5 mm audio port and standard left/right AUX ports (red and white) as possible connections. Check the TV’s actual ports and the adapter’s stated input before buying; Samsung’s guidance does not establish compatibility for any particular adapter, range, codec, or latency.

Samsung describes an adapter connection as an option in its Bluetooth-device guide. For TVs with an optical output, Samsung also documents connecting an optical cable from DIGITAL AUDIO OUT (OPTICAL) to an external device’s optical input and selecting Optical under Sound Output. An optical cable alone is not a headphone connection. If using an optical-input Bluetooth transmitter, verify that its input and supported audio format match the TV and headphones. See Samsung Malaysia’s sound-output instructions.
