Hello,

 

I am just new on Apple World.

Does anybody knows if my MacBook 12 retina can work with Bluetooth Headset Sony SBH70 or should I buy specific product for this pc?

There's one way to find out.

 

 

Set up a Bluetooth audio device

  1. Choose the device from the Bluetooth status menu (Bluetooth icon) in the menu bar, then choose, "Open Bluetooth Preferences" If the Bluetooth status menu isn’t in the menu bar, choose Apple menu > System Preferences, click Bluetooth, then select the “Show Bluetooth in menu bar” checkbox at the bottom of the window.
    Note:    If you don’t see Bluetooth in System Preferences, your computer doesn’t support Bluetooth.

     

  2. Follow the onscreen instructions to set up the device.

Select a Bluetooth audio device as your computer’s input or output device

    Ask the third party manufacturer....they are the definitive source.
