Great!
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.It basically does what’s supposed to do. I bought it to connect my Cricut to my computer, at first I had a hard time connecting both but I think it was my not so technical abilities.

Works great
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Plugged in, went to website & installed drivers. Windows 10 didn't see it. Had windows search for updates,and it found a good driver. Took a while to get headphones to pair, but now works great.

Works as intended.
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This adapter works for computer audio. Doesn't have much range past the desktop. I had purchased this to use in a home entertainment center, but the range wasn't good enough. The signal began cutting out when more than 6 ft away from the adapter.

BT Adapter returned...
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Nothing wrong with the adapter, but it would not work with these headphones. I returned it to Best Buy who refunded my purchase cost. Very happy with Best Buy and no fault of this adapter. Just not the right one for this set of headphones. Only gave 4 stars, as I was not able to justify keeping it.

Worked great. No complaints
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Had no issues with this little device. It's especially nice that it is so small so I don't have to dis-mount it from the laptop's USB port when I put it in the briefcase.

Avoid! No official drivers. Bad performance.
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Do not buy this. You will regret not just simply spending $5 more for an official Microsoft licensed product. Why is that? Well for starters, it HAS NO DRIVERS. Best Buy never bothered to put the drivers online, so in order to use this product you will need to track them down yourself. Windows is supposed to find them on it's own, but it won't. So you'll be pulling your hair out trying to find the drivers on the Insignia website. There are none. Your best bet is to use drivers from another device that uses the same Broadcomm BCM20702a0 drivers but you will have to download them off a sketchy site. Oh, and once you finally get the drivers from another 3rd party website, be prepared for this thing to intermittently fail every 20-30 seconds and cycle bluetooth on and off. Shame on you BestBuy for selling this product.

Powerful for it's size
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Received a Fitbit for Christmas, I was excited until I discovered that my computer was Bluetooth illiterate. I hopped in the car, at Best Buy the sales person said "NO PROBLEM". It wasn't, I came home plugged this little thing in the back of the computer. That's all, it worked, my daily stats are now on my desktop.

Does not work with Microsoft mice
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Try all you like, you'll have to buy a Microsoft BT transceiver to work with a Microsoft mouse. However, this transceiver works ok with other BT devices such as headphones. It is less expensive than Microsoft however.
