Dualshock 4, Windows 10

Purchased for use with a Dualshock 4 controller. So far it's working great on Windows 10. I haven't noticed any input lag or disconnects in games even though I'm only 4 feet away from this adapter. I'm using a USB 3.0 port. To connect a Dualshock controller via Bluetooth: 1. Plug in the adapter and turn on Bluetooth in Windows 10 (click the notification popup on the taskbar to open the switch menu)2. Press and hold the Playstation button on the controller to turn it on3. From the notifications…

Pros
  • Consistent test results
Cons
  • Off fashion

Bluetooth adapter for Windows 7 that works!

For those of you looking for a Bluetooth adapter compatible with your Win7 (64-bit) operating system, good news: ONE WORKS! After trial and error (multiple) I finally figured out the correct setup sequence to pair BT with my headphones. Cable Matters support was fantastic and they went out of their way to help which was appreciated. Here are my steps to get the pairing right: How to set up Bluetooth on a Windows 71 64-bit system Follow the download instructions (Cable Matters) and install the…

A little work and this adapter is worth it!

I bought this adapter specifically to use my Beat headphones with my PC (Windows 8). When I plugged in the adapter, it recognized itself immediately and installed without needing the CD that came with it. Unfortunately, it didn't recognize my headphones right away, but later I was able to install them. I've had a few issues that I've seen in other reviews, but I've been able to fix them all so far! 1. Headphones connected but no playback. I opened the audio settings and found my beats connected

Garbage drivers in network adapters

The card worked for almost a year, although it never automatically connected to Bluetooth devices (must be connected manually). To solve this problem, I tried reinstalling the driver (and first completely uninstalling the previous driver from Device Manager). When I use the driver from the website (which hasn't been updated since 2017) I can sometimes connect but the sound is really choppy. Also a lot of strange things. Whenever I turn on Bluetooth in Windows, an unnecessary map window pops up…

Pros
  • Special offer
Cons
  • Makes me angry

Works great at a great price

This adapter works great on my Win10 PC. Plugged it in and it automatically installed the drivers and worked great by plugging in whatever I threw at it. I currently have 2 soundbars, 2 phones, several wireless headsets and various other 'unknown' devices that seem to be around and will work out of the box with this adapter. The active transmission range leaves a lot to be desired, so I might invest in a Bluetooth extender in the future. I plugged this into the rear USB port on my PC and am…

Pros
  • Good stuff
Cons
  • No insurance

Small, cheap, works great

The device works and works well. You simply plug it into a USB port, let Windows detect and install the device driver, and you're up and running in seconds. It comes with a device driver disk, but you don't need it if you have an internet connection. I bought it for my brand new 8th gen "Coffee Lake" processor 370 chipset system. I ordered a different brand Bluetooth adapter (plugable brand) but I had many problems with it because I couldn't detect Bluetooth devices(!) to crash iTunes and slow…

Pros
  • Inspires confidence
Cons
  • Negative impression
