UGREEN Bluetooth 6.0 Transmitter Receiver, Dual Connection, 18H Long Playtime, Mic for Calls, 2-in-1 Wireless Aux Bluetooth Adapter for TV, Airplane, Headphone, Airpods, Speaker, Car

The UGREEN Bluetooth 6.0 Transmitter Receiver to use alongside my Fosi Audio BOX X1 phono preamp, and it’s been a solid choice so far. My goal was simple: get audio from my turntable (via the Fosi phono preamp) to my active speakers without running long cables. Setup was straightforward. I connected the line-out from the BOX X1 to the UGREEN unit using the 3.5mm input, switched it to transmit (TX) mode, and paired it with my speakers. No app needed, just buttons and LEDs, which I actually prefer. Sound quality is better than expected for a small Bluetooth unit. The audio is clear and stable, with no obvious noise or dropouts. Yes, Bluetooth is technically lossy, but in real-world listening the loss is mostly academic. Sitting back and listening to records, it sounds perfectly fine and enjoyable. I wouldn’t feel like I’m missing out unless I was directly comparing it to a wired connection. There is a slight delay, as you’d expect with Bluetooth, but in this kind of audio-only setup it really doesn’t matter at all. Once everything is paired, it reconnects automatically and just works. Battery life is also good, I easily get long listening sessions without worrying about charging, and the unit feels well made for the price. Overall, this is a flexible and reliable Bluetooth transmitter/receiver that pairs very well with a budget phono preamp like the Fosi BOX X1. If you’re looking for an easy way to add wireless audio to a turntable or hi-fi setup, this is a good buy. Pros • Easy setup, no app required • Stable Bluetooth connection • Sound quality is more than acceptable • Good battery life • Useful TX and RX modes Cons • Bluetooth is still Bluetooth (technically lossy) • Small amount of latency (not an issue for music) I’d happily recommend it for similar setups.

I bought this specifically to use with my Ableton Move so I could travel without wires or bringing two pairs of headphones, but I was almost scared off because the product description explicitly says it doesn't work with AirPods Pro 2. I decided to risk it for £15, and I’m glad I did. The Compatibility Myth: Despite the warning in the listing, it pairs fine with the airpods pro 2. The trick is you just need to ensure both the dongle and your AirPods are in pairing mode at the same time. It connected on the first try. You don't get Spatial Audio (which makes sense), but the Noise Cancellation still works, which is all I really needed for travel. For music production and live performance, latency is the enemy. The reality is It’s not "zero," but it is absolutely "good enough." I was able to tap out beats and could adjust for the slight delay without it ruining the flow as It has been consistently stable. There is no Airplane Adapter included and It’s sold as a travel solution but doesn't include the two-prong airline seat adapter. I didn't buy it for that, but it’s a cheap omission. It’s great that you can use it while it charges (so it never dies), it's super small and very "pocketable" however it doesn't have inbuilt volume control. Battery life was in line with the claim. If you need a cheap way to get your AirPods Pro 2 working with hardware that doesn't support them, ignore the "incompatible" warning. It works, it’s cheap, and the lag is low enough to actually get work done. Plus this is bluetooth 6 so in theory will be future proof even if the airpods don't support it yet.

Great range, at least 30meters transmitting line of sight with no walls in between. Sound quality is very acceptable. Battery life is as advertised. Some might find the lag at around 1/4 second annoying or even unusable with video so 4 stars because of that. It pairs very easily with my JBL headphones. Made of plastic and seems robust.

As usual, UGREEN has knocked it out of the park with this one. The device is very easy to connect to. I use it to pair my Bluetooth headphones with my PlayStation Portal, and there's no noticeable input lag, which is very important for gaming, so this product is ideal if that's what you're looking for. The sound quality is also excellent, I didn't notice any degredation in the sound of my headphones when compared to a standard connection to my phone. There is a very slight hissing noise, but this is only noticeable when there's no other sound being played, so it doesn't bother me. Overall, this is a great product. I've tried a few Bluetooth transmitters that were cheaper than this, and none of them worked properly. I'd say go ahead and buy this UGREEN one if you want something reliable and well made.

So this seemed to work quite nicely, at least the TX mode I tested initially. Then came the day I wanted to use it for headphones on my computer. I connected this to my headphone jack, and connected my Bose QC II headphones. I played a YouTube video, and the volume was massive. I snatched the headphones from my head, and I could still hear the sound louder than some BT speakers I have used. So I turned the volume down, and then put the headphones back on. Disgruntled, but now listening to music again. The came the MAJOR problem with this device. When the first video ended, a new video loaded and started to play - AT FULL VOLUME. It was ear-shattering. I have tried various other options, and only with this device does the volume revert to MAX. So if you are using something which needs full volume, have at it. If you want to keep your hearing, avoid this like the plauge.

I must admit, I had my reservations about this device as I always do my research before purchasing hardware and the reviews on Amazon were mixed. However, uGreen has been gaining traction in the tech market over recent years so thought I'd give it a try. For reference, I've had numerous uGreen devices in the past and they are all pretty well made and tend to perform well - this device included. It has a plastic casing with, what feels like, a (1 inch) braided cable to the 3.5mm jack. With the jack cable laid straight, it's around 115mm x 29mm x 11mm. The cable is bendable though, due to how short it is, there's not much play, so I suspect trying to bend it 180 degrees back on itself might eventually cause a break in the cable. It's got a USB-C charging port on the end of the device which, according to the manual, allows you to fully charge the device from zero in 2 hrs. There is a slider switch on the side to change between receive and transmit modes, and a main button on the top which you can use to turn the device on and off (by holding it for three seconds) and also for pairing it to your bluetooth device of choice. Once paired, the light around the main button will intermittently illuminate blue to inform you that it's connected. It's not that distracting though might be a problem for some people who are, for example, listening to music in the dark! It's on for about three seconds then off for about nine. The reason I needed a device like this was for a DAB radio (which was bought for me by my other half, though she didn't realise it only had BT receive capabilities), so that I could listen to it using some BT v5.0 EarFun Air Pro buds. To be fair, this device does a pretty good job considering the price. The sound quality is fairly good, it's easy to setup and use and seems to hold charge fairly well. I haven't used it extensively but I assume the "about 28hr" transmit usage that it states is going to be under peak conditions - i.e. after it's been fully charged straight out of the box and only on a low output volume. As I haven't had this device long, I unfortunately can't confirm this either way though I think it will do what I need it to do. I also can't test all connectivity permutations though it apparently uses SBC codecs for transmit and SBC and AAC for receiving. I've not had any drops as yet, though I have mainly only used it to listen to the football coverage and for around an hour before bed so not really had chance to test how the connectivity is affected when the battery charge depletes. So far so good though! One final point is that I have tried it with my XBox Series X controller while playing Battlefield. I'll put it out there now, it's not perfect. There is a slight latency which I think some hardcore gamers would find challenging. However, I've played it for over an hour and I think it's acceptable. It's all personal preference though - if you're critical about issues like that, it isn't for you, but I personally think it's an acceptable tolerance. All in all, a nice little device. It was around £18 when I bought it so, for me, this is a relatively inexpensive option that gives you BT transmitting and receiving capabilities for your 3.5mm jack devices. : )

Usual high quality of Ugeeen products. Good quality finish and nice audio quality. Easy to pair with AirPods. Unfortunately the 3.5mm jack snapped during use inflight. Very weak jack and unable to be easily replaced.

A great price. Read the instructions on the little quick start card. I did nt find it until the second time I used it works perfectly. I could nt guess the sett up sequence. Great for making the most of in flight entertainment.
