Apple AirPods Work on Bravia OLED TV

I thought I'd share a tip.

Are you aware that you can set up and use Apple wireless AirPod in ear headphones on a Bravia TV?

At least I can on my Sony Bravia 55’ KD-55AF8 OLED TV running the Android 7.0 software update.  There is no conflict between the Android and Apple systems as Bluetooth is universal.

Select Settings, select Bluetooth settings then choose Add device.  After setting up it is just a case of picking the AirPods icon from the list when needed.

This allows late night use without disturbing others and is ideal for those rare YouTube videos that suggest using headphones for the best effect.

The TV remote changes the sound levels within the ear phones.  However, the "Hey Siri" voice control options are disabled whilst in TV listening mode as this is a function of AirPods when connected to a suitable mobile device.

Hope you find this interesting.  Vince
