Bluetooth 5.2 Wireless Audio Adapter for Xbox Controllers

I really wanted to use a Soundcore Bluetooth headset with my XBOX so I decided to try this one as it had some great reviews and others who had problems. I was determined to make it work. The adapter requires no batteries and has a digital interface with a screen and easy to understand tactile buttons. As many of the reviews state, it paired effortlessly, but alas had very low sound. It didn't make sense to me that the adapter itself would cause the volume to change. So I spent maybe an hour checking my game settings, my headphone settings and finally the XBOX settings. The fix is in the XBox settings. You must adjust the volume settings hidden in the Xbox menus. First pair up your headphones/earbuds. The small adapter has a digital readout that shows it is paired, the microphone status and the volume level. Once paired, go to the Xbox menu "Games and Apps" - go to Apps - find the "Settings" app. Chose the Audio section. Once in there, you will see multiple choices. The trick is finding the right sub-category that has a hidden volume control. Once you see the volume control slider you are in the right place and can adjust it. My sound worked perfectly once I turned up the volume for the xbox. Before I adjusted this I had a very low volume and it only came out of one ear. Again that was an Xbox error not the adapter.

I bought this in conjunction with new Audio-Technica ATH-M20 BT headphones with Bluetooth 5.0, which are $89.00. This YOCOWOCO, your new friend. Plug her in to the controller. Careful to not force it, it is a little weird to line up. At first, there was a latency delay, but I enabled the headphones' low-latency mode... viola! The controller audio 3.5mm plug sounds converted to bluetooth, no latency that I can hear! Finally what my ears wanted to hear and head wanted to feel. No dang cord! I can do dishes and listen to Xbox Spotify. No degradation of sound quality. You can set up the Xbox to not mute the TV Speaker sound when you have the audio port plugged in, then just mute your TV, then never unplug this handy device! I always used the Xbox menu volume slider before, it is annoying to navigate to, but crank that and you should have volume. Not sure why people are confused about this?? Also, it has a screen! I thought that was painted on and permanently said "Air-pods", ha ha. I used to use 14+ year old wired headphones for a few years, the sound was fine, but now finally wireless freedom! And I am side-stepping Microsoft/Xbox's proprietary headphones/custom 2.4ghz frequency nonsense. The Official Xbox Headphones are round... not oval, so they press on your ears for no reason other than a stylistic choice when they designed them. It hurts the ears, I tried some JBL headphones like that, had to return them. I also tried a cheaper Xbox 3rd-party green headphones with the controller attachment. Connection was fine, but the headphones were awful, cheap feeling, bad sound quality, rickety trash. But YOCOWOCO and nice headphones, works for me, so far! Headphone quality matters, and Bluetooth 5.0+ with low-latency mode matters, remember that!! ALSO, I don't use the microphone, why would I want to talk to random people on video games internet? I don't want to talk to people. So I can't comment on that, sorry. Update: Apparently, my headphones do not support the AptX-LL (low-latency) codec which this unit supports for lowest possible latency with Bluetooth... but I can't tell. So...get AptX-LL headphones if you want to? Not sure what games the can't-stand-Bluetooth's-latency crowd is playing, but my experience is fine. I can, and you can, and everybody can also plug in corded headphones, mine have a wired connection, but you are here because you want to lose the cord, so YOCOWOCO! Probably don't try connecting to your TV or soundbar's Bluetooth, that is a one-way ticket to Latency City!

Works great and is easy to set up. I use it with a Bluetooth speaker. I don’t notice any latency. It won’t work on every controller so make sure it’s compatible with yours. Overall great buy.

I had high hopes for this adapter, but it didn’t deliver—especially for party chat use. 🔇 Poor Microphone Performance The built-in mic picks up every click from the controller, and in party chats, others said I sounded distant and muffled. It also captures a lot of background noise, making conversations frustrating. 🎧 No Support for Quality Headset Mics I tried using my Beats and AirPods (both with great mics), but the adapter overrides them and forces you to use its own low-quality mic. On my Xbox Series X, the mic wasn’t even detected in the console settings, so I couldn’t adjust sensitivity or improve the sound. 🎮 Only Useful for Game Audio If your only goal is to hear game audio through wireless earbuds that aren’t compatible with Xbox or PlayStation, this might work. But honestly, you’re better off connecting your earbuds directly to a Bluetooth-enabled TV. That’s what I ended up doing—and it worked perfectly without needing this adapter. 💸 Overpriced for What It Offers This product didn’t meet my expectations, and I’ll be returning it. One star because I found a better solution that didn’t cost me anything extra.

Works as advertized. Trigger and clicking comes through the speakers as sound. But this is the best product I could find for the money. I would recomend this product to a friend.

Its easy to connect to the controller, and not to difficult connecting to my Beats headphones. This does drain your battery and prevents the controller from turning off from inactivity. The sound is OK but at times cuts off, but its manageable. The mic i struggled with at times, it seems like the closer I had the controller to my headphones the better it picked up my voice, this was a pain at times.

For what this item for is mainly to connect Bluetooth headphones with no mic to your controller. There is a half second to a second delay in audio, but this is normal considering what it’s for. I have not used it for too long, but for the headphones that I connected, it worked as intended. Some of these fancy headphones don’t have a mic and they’re maidenly use for music. This one works as a good option instead of buying a wired headset. I have yet to test out the microphone, but even with the microphone, turning it on and turning it off for a quick conversations should do the job. This is a definitely a nice solution for a Bluetooth headset that is not normally paired to an Xbox controller. Hopefully this design can be refined a little bit more good job

Works very well with the Xbox elite series 2 controller and Samsung Galaxy Buds Pro3 earbuds.

Fantastic device to allow you to use Bluetooth wireless headsets with your Xbox. Very easy to fit and set up, and works brilliantly. I would have given this five stars easily, I know I’ve given it five stars but I almost didn’t because it doesn’t support the AAC codec, so if you’re using Apple AirPods - AirPods Max in my case, it doesn’t support your headphones with a low latency codec and you have to use the higher latency SDC codec - however, we ‘re talking milliseconds of latency so the average person probably wouldn’t even notice. The difference is so minimal, I’ve kept the device instead of returning it because everything else about it is absolutely brilliant. I have another similar device from a different manufacturer that supports AAC but doesn’t have the digital readout, so I swap and change the two as needed. If your headphones support AptX LL, then you will experience minimal latency through sound travelling from this device to your headphones. Note to AirPod users, your headphones don’t, so you’d be using the SDC codec with this device. If you need AAC, I’d suggest looking at the Skull & Co version of this device. As I said before tho, most people won’t even notice the extra few milliseconds of latency, so if you like the look of this and you’re using AirPods, you won’t be unhappy with your purchase - the sound quality is amazing, allowing you to make the most of your headphones, enjoying the 3D audio positioning of Dolby Atmos or Dolby DTS on your Xbox, so you can hear exactly where your enemies are coming from in your game. You don’t need to charge the unit, and it doesn’t take batteries - it’s powered by the controller it’s plugged into, and switches on when you turn on the controller, going into sleep mode when the controller’s off. I haven’t noticed any change in how long my controller batteries last since I started using this, the power it uses is minimal. The digital display is a great feature and allows you to see which device is currently connected and the audio codec being used. Connecting to your Bluetooth headphones is a doddle, taking less than a minute. It also shows an icon when the mic is muted. This device doesn’t support the onboard mics of Bluetooth headphones, but it solves this by having it’s own built-in mic that you can use for voice chat during your game - it works really well too, I was praised for its volume and clarity when playing Sea of Thieves yesterday. There’s a mute mic button for those times when you don’t want to be heard, but I’ve found I haven’t really needed to use it. This is a fantastic little device, and if it’s improved by adding support for the AAC codec for Apple users, I’ll start referring to this as an essential piece of kit for any Xbox gamer who’d like to use his or her expensive non-gaming headphones for gaming. It is excellent value for money for what it is and does, and I’ll happily recommend it to anyone who cares to listen. An easy two thumbs up👍🏼👍🏼 p.s. It’s not dusty in the photo I posted, that’s a reflection - it’s very shiny and reflective!

I ordered this one, because I wanted to use it with my Soundcore In Ear earphones with noice cancelling. As expected, there is a short delay, which is mostly noticed when shooting. I'm not going to replace the earphones because of that. Currently I'm playing Far Cry New Dawn and I can localize enemies very quick by their noises. The connection ist established very quick and reliable. I had only once a problem with reconnection when I went with my earphones too far away, but I solved this quick by removing this dongle and placed it back again. I definitely recommend this one!
