Bluetooth 4.0 Adapter Dongle

I bought Waves NX Head Tracker to use it with Logic Pro X in a Mac Pro Mid 2010 OS El Capitan and Bluetooth 2.1 I needed Bluetooth 4.0, so I bought this StarTech adapter. Plugged into my computer, but it was not recognized as BT 4.0. Then I downloaded Hardware_IO_Tools_for_Xcode_7.3.dmg, and installed Bluetooth Explorer in the Applications folder. Opened it, Tools menu and choose HCI Controller Selector, I clicked at the arrows and selected Broadcom Corp and clicked Activate. Done My computer recognized the StarTech adapter as Bluetooth 4, and I was able to use my excellent Waves NX Head Tracker.

It's very small handy, but powerful. I'd recommended to use it with the bluetooth dongle.

Great high-quality dongle/adapter

Bought the headset about a month ago, needed a replacement for my JBL Quantum 200's. Overall the product is top tier, the sound quality is crisp, clean, and (often times) very loud. Pros: - Long battery life (while wireless), in my experience it gets a solid 30-32 hours whilst connected to the included dongle, and right around 43 hours with Bluetooth only. The headset can be connected via Bluetooth AND the dongle at the same time. Note; I do have the RGB function disabled on my headset, which extends the battery life by a *ton*. - Good range on the wireless connection, both Bluetooth and dongle. - Capability to be wired with USB-C (console), or 3.5mm jack going into a headphone/mic splitter (PC) - Amazing mic quality *while connect via wires*. Honestly the mic's balance and quality is on par with some dedicated desk/boom mic's that I've had in the past. - Very comfy fit, I can easily wear them for 5-6 hours straight with no issues. Very little wiggle on my head, even when vigorously shaking or bobbing my head. - Active noise cancelling is so good that it's almost disorienting. Being able to hear most of the environment around you just vanish really is a harrowing and alien experience after never having used it before. The noise cancelling is togglable from a button on the left earphone. There is also a Talk through function, for when you need to hear everything around you or carry on a conversation. - Audio has next to zero delay whilst wireless. I've played quite a few CS:GO and Valorant games, relying almost entirely upon audio cues/footsteps. Not once did I notice any delay that ever affected gameplay. Con(s): - Uhm... Mic quality whilst wireless decreases substantially? Less of a con, more of a side effect to ANY wireless connection. Over all; If I could give this headset a 6/5 stars, I would. It really is one of the most versatile pieces of tech that I own.

Does exactly what you’d expect it to do. Dongle dongle y’all.

Mini USB Bluetooth® 4.0 Adapter is a fantastic product! Better working range than other Bluetooth receivers/transmitters. Works great with Sony MDR-10R after checking ALL of the configuration for USBBT1EDR4. You MUST install ONLY the last version of the CSR Harmony software; if you have an older version installed, you MUST uninstall the older version first. The new version unfortunately does not include drivers for all of the older transmitters and you can't have more than one version installed at the same time. I highly recommend this product.

This is not my first but is the first I bought with the charging case. If you buy the headset and charging case separate you don’t get the Bluetooth dongle which is another $50. If you buy it as a package, you get the charger, headset and Bluetooth dongle for less than you would pay for it individually. A good deal and a great headset.

Headphones albeit a little heavy are well made and appear so. They sound phenomenal like everyone says. Got some wicked cooling ear cups that literally just rotate on and off. So super easy to replace ear cups and head band just pulls off with force. Battery life is awesome, have played probably over 30 to 45hrs of games and haven't had to charge yet. One thing to note is when using the dongle and Bluetooth together it will play sound from dongle connection until the Bluetooth goes off then it shuts out dongle sound to play Bluetooth sound. Haven't used boom mic as haven't played online with anyone yet. Have taken a phone call with the in built mics and the caller said I sounded clear just picked up a lot of noise around me, not sure I had sound suppression on which had a low and high mod and can help that I hear. If it works with in built mic and not just the boom mic. Overall: heavy price, heavy headset, phenomenal sound and battery life, customizable equalizer from app, and premium feel. Winner winner chicken dinner is the feeling anyone should get when wearing this amazing headset/headphones.

I upgraded to the MX Master 3S because I wanted BlueTooth with out a dongle. It was easy to set up and connect. I like the way my hand cups the mouse as well.

Replaced mouse on Intel Zeon Mac Pro. Added KINIV Bluetooth dongle. Works great! Easy to get touch top used to. Fits hand comfortably. No track ball to get gummed up.
