    USB Dongle at a Super Valie!

    Plug n play (like most), but if you have to transfer over drivers (which is unlikely) they’re super easy to find unlike some other cheaper devices. Works great, and has a super low profile. A great buy if this meets your needs for a great value! Thanks Best Buy

    I got so used to my old PC, I forgot that building my own PC would not come with Bluetooth. So, I did some research and decided on this one. It works perfectly. Just plug it in and connect to any device you want.

    Win 11 64 running a generic Xbox Bluetooth controller without issue. The only issue I had was my connect button on the controller was sticky and I had to press it a few times, before I figured that out I updated the drivers (unnecessary) and reinstalled them since the reviews indicated a possible concern that made me distrustful.

    It works as a connector for BT devices, but when I tried using it with my controller on PC, it was dropping inputs. I tried updating the drivers, avoiding any obstacles between this receiver and my device, and staying about 6 feet away, but still didn't improve performance.

    If your computer lacks a Bluetooth feature, this will solve your issue. It's plug-and-play for adding Bluetooth connectivity to your computer. I recommend plugging it in to the front USB ports on your computer.

    First time building a pc and didn't realize the little aspects some might take for granted like Bluetooth and wifi lol. This little guy saved me tremendously on playing my games wireless. Switching to pc isn't easy. Definitely worth a buy!

    Got this so I could use a Smart Bike Trainer with my PC. It hooked up to my computer with no issues. However, I did have an issue with signal drop while training, not sure if it was the dongle or my trainer. I moved PC closer to the trainer and out from behind a desk and the issue was resolved.
