Works well. The range is terrible.

I'm not sure why these tiny BT adapters are getting such rave reviews. All the ones I've tried (3 of them so far) have had terrible range. I tested this adapter with my new Sony WH-1000XM3 headphones. I have a Bluetooth adapter in a powered USB 3.0 hub on my desk. 3 meters from my head. Even if I turn my head away from the adapter, the connection breaks. I can barely use my BT mouse either. I ended up having to switch it back to the included radio adapter. And I'm sure it's not just my devices because when I connect the same headphones to my phone or laptop with built-in BT, I can use them around the house with no sound quality issues.

Pros
  • cool product
Cons
  • could have chosen a newer model
