Range very low, slow to process
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I was feeling excited to find a well priced, minimalistic Bluetooth USB adapter. We got home, installed it and while checking it out, the range was no more than 4 feet (even if it should be closer to 30 ft) and when we sent to print, it took forever. Just to do my due diligence, I connected the printer with an unsightly USB cable. Sent to print, and immediately started printing. Our idea of printing without wires got crushed by a tiny USB adaptor, and we continued to use the ugly cable.

Choose a different adapter
||Posted . Owned for 6 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Bought it, tried everything & couldn’t get drivers installed let alone found. Seems many others who recently purchased have the same issue. I grabbed an Asus one and it worked flawlessly with windows 10. Spend the extra $5 and grab the Asus one.

So handy!
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Such a cheap but useful add on to my computer! Everything can easy be connected now hassle free!
I would recommend this to a friend Good, but slow transfer speeds.
||Posted . Owned for 1.5 years when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Transferring a photo to my phone takes a very long time proportionally, compared to what Bluetooth is capable of. However, receiving a file through this adapter is really quite fast. Bluetooth audio headsets work fine as well.
I would recommend this to a friendJust find something else....
||Posted . Owned for 4 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Cant say i would suggest this... after several months of dealing with issues, i had to remove it. Bluetooth keyboard keeps cutting out after about 5 seconds and this makes it impossible to do any kind of production work that requires the keyboard. Also, using Sony bluetooth headphones is impossible as it continuously stutters. Using another bluethooth plug and my phone in the same area gets perfect sound... so it's definitely this adapter that is the issue. I'd say dont get it until they update the model and hopefully make it better.

Works, but not the best.
||Posted . Owned for 3 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.It works, with ease. Range is pretty poor though. Unless there’s unobstructed line of sight with the device. Don’t count on it to always stay connected.
