Bluetooth 4.0 Adapter Review

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.

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 review was collected as part of a promotion.] The Belkin adapter is a great alternative to Bluetooth, and for good audio systems, the quality improvement of the Belkin AirPlay2 is clearly noticeable for any genre with wide frequency ranges, nuanced sound stage, and high dynamic ranges. Particularly with my 300B equipped tube amplifier and full-size speakers, this adapter does not suffer from Bluetooth compression that otherwise requires well-implemented DSP algorithms on the receiving end to mitigate...and that can be hit-or miss. The Belkin adapter is a hit.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Great little Bluetooth adapter to connect to my audio system. Although my receiver has built-in Bluetooth, it is very finicky to connect to. This unit solved the problem. I like that it has an optical cable connector to make the connection to my receiver.

You may want to consider a Bluetooth adapter for your headphones rather than this. They are harder to loose and more convenient.

Very useful adapter for laptop w/o Bluetooth. Easy to install, and works great.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Just upgraded to the Samsung 980 PRO PCIe 4.0 NVMe SSD (1TB), and it's a game-changer! Here’s a quick review of my experience: #### Blazing Fast Performance This SSD is insanely fast! With sequential read speeds up to 7,000 MB/s and write speeds up to 5,000 MB/s, it’s perfect for gaming, video editing, and any data-intensive tasks. Load times are practically non-existent. #### Reliability & Endurance The build quality is top-notch. Samsung has included advanced thermal control with a nickel coating and heat spreader to keep things cool. Plus, it comes with a 5-year limited warranty, which is pretty reassuring. #### Easy Compatibility It fits into most desktops and laptops with an M.2 slot, and while you’ll get the best performance with PCIe 4.0, it’s backward compatible with PCIe 3.0 systems too. #### Handy Software Samsung’s Magician software is a nice bonus. It helps you manage firmware updates, run performance benchmarks, and keep an eye on the SSD’s health. #### Pros: - Lightning-fast read and write speeds - Great thermal management - Reliable with a 5-year warranty - Useful management software #### Cons: - A bit pricey - Need PCIe 4.0 for maximum speed ### Bottom Line If you’re looking for top-tier performance and reliability, the Samsung 980 PRO is worth every penny. It’s a solid investment for gamers, content creators, or anyone needing a high-performance storage solution.

Having a bluetooth adapter on my PC has made things so much easier. Amazing price. Works wonderful.

Purchased a Bluetooth adapter just to see what all the fuss was about ..Sent a few files to my computer.. Could have done this through Email :-) Only con i found is when I paired this with my Bluetooth headphones, my wifi connection would become choppy..
