    Works really well but it didnt like my front side USB ports, had to use a port in the back. Now with using Windows Phone Link I can make and take calls through my PC using my very comfortable gaming headset instead of having my phone on speaker nor have to use an annoying bluetooth headset that get painful to wear for long periods of time. My work is 90% home based.

    I chose this particular one from the recommendation of the Best Buy associate. A nice compact smart ready Bluetooth adapter. I didn't have Bluetooth on my new gaming computer. It is easy to use and connect. It performs well, connected easily on my computer, and made adding Bluetooth devices very easy.

    Bought this for my son's gaming PC, so he could have his noise canceling headset and even his ear buds paired with his PC so he could game without filling the entire upstairs with loud game sounds/music. This BT adapter, worked straight out of the box, no drivers needed PNP on Windows 11 worked flawlessly. Paired with his noice canceling headset and even his Anker Soundcore X20 ear buds connected first time, everytime.

    This is a quality low-profile Bluetooth adapter. It has reliably connected with all of my devices, including my Logitech MX Keys, and there haven't been any observable disconnections. I also purchased another for an older laptop and it's barely noticeable, and inobtrusive enough to leave inserted.

    I recently bought a Bluetooth mouse, but didn't realize that the laptop I was going to put it with didn't have Bluetooth! The first thing I did was got on the Best Buy website and did a search for a USB Bluetooth adapter. I immediately found this awesome Asus part that does exactly what is needed! Just plug it in and go. It doesn't get any better than that! I am very happy with this purchase.

    Perfect plug and play Bluetooth adapter. I mistakenly purchased a motherboard for my PC that didn’t include Bluetooth connectivity. This little adapter saved me a lot of money and frustration fixing I mistake I didn’t realize I made.

    It was very easy to install, and already had its drivers. I installed this in a Dell Optiplex 9010 that had no Bluetooth and it worked perfectly out of the box.

    Works on the first time plugging in. Didn’t have to load any drivers or fiddle with any settings. All my devices can see it with no problem. Of course Asus is a trusted brand, and this doesn’t disappoint.

    Had to purchase this after Best Buy installed a motherboard without Bluetooth (and didn't tell me). This Bluetooth adapter works great! Very easy to set up and picks up everything that my laptop does without fail! Great piece of equipment to have if your device needs Bluetooth!

    Does exactly what it's supposed to, gave me bluetooth 5.0 connectivity on my PC that previously had none. The range is pretty impressive for such a small device, it can reach about 30+ ft from my bedroom to my Kitchen before it starts cutting out. Very easy to use, just plug in and let Windows 10 do the rest.

    This USB-based BT is SO handy. I found out my motherboard didn't have BT or wi-fi the hard way... This little adapter has been a lifesaver! And very cost effective as well. No Bluetooth issues that I haven't had with literally any other BT device I've owned.

    My motherboard’s Bluetooth/Wi-Fi kept crapping out on me mid game so I went to get this dongle. After disabling my Bluetooth in bios, this dongle was plug and play. I use the Xbox controller on my pc and it has not shown any noticeable lag. Great product for $20

    This is an awesome adapter for desktop/laptop to use wireless headphones or connect to your phone or tablet to send files. The quality is there because when I tried my wireless headphones on my desktop, I had no lag on the audio, which means you do not hear the audio first and then see the person's lips move or vise versa. It works with Linux, which best buy brand Insignia used to work with Linux but nowadays Insignia bluetooth adapter says that it will not work with Linux. *the price of desktop/laptop computers, you might think bluetooth would be in them but nope.

    Product works pretty well, but the only issue I have is a mild latency that makes caming with controllers a bit difficult. If you can wire in for gameplay do it but for a casual game night works amazing!
