Impressive
So my PC doesn't have a thing for Bluetooth and I wanted to use my Buds3 pro with it. Item was super easy to setup. What impresses me the most is the software. Acoustic engine feature is decently useful. The onboard equalizer is sick. I have been using that a lot. Only negative, probably my ear buds fault, is I have to pull the product out of my pc for my earbuds to connect to my phone.

Second time creative made an excellent uncommon product that saved my setup
Excellent. I'm normally too busy to write reviews but I'm super happy with my current audio setup thanks to the W5.This is the second time Creative made a product for an uncommon setup that I really needed to get the ideal configuration with the hardware. The last one was an audio dock/converter that allowed you to receive full surround sound via optical/coaxial cable with your 5.1/7.1 computer speaker system, brilliant. This dongle allows you to use Bluetooth with your Windows PC. Sounds dumb on the surface, like who's using a modern pc without Bluetooth? Wrong, I do enjoy using Windows over the years but the Bluetooth support is kind of awful and just barely there in terms of functionality, even basic stuff is buried deep in the old Control Panel instead of Settings. Anyway this product allowed me to get proper Bluetooth support that doesn't disconnect every so often or act weird because I accidentally tried to use the microphone (Windows just can't seem to do audio in and out at the same time at reasonable quality, despite Bluetooth supporting the standards for decades and getting better every few years).It's kind of jank sometimes but that could be the specific Bose Ultra Open ears I use. I use these while I'm at work because for my job I need to be able to hear if people need me. I've tried other open earphones and of course transparency mode on popular wireless earbuds and none of them work as well for my job or sound as good as these do. And sound good they do thanks to the W5 supporting multiple codecs and having several options. I mentioned some jank but I found the perfect solution I've been using for 4 days so far with zero issues or features not working. I plug the dongle in and immediately turn on my Bose ultras (by taking them out of the case) and they work 100% of the time. Before I tried leaving the dongle plugged in and would get issues connecting half the time. Not a problem anymore.They sound just as good connected to the pc or phone. The options can make the earbuds sound even better. I usually avoid audio presets but I tried the gaming preset and it sounds very good. Makes it sound more full, which is great for an open ear earbud. I work in a college, so imagine tons of wifi signals coming from the access points as well as students and signal strength is great.

Great for work
Works great, even on work computers with a lot of restrictions. Highly recommended. The range is quite large, as I am able to walk a few cubicle rows over and still hear everything crystal clear, though that might also depend on how good the Bluetooth of your headphones is as well.

Finally a simple HD stereo solution
There's no easier way to listen to your music than just to open up a folder and press Enter on whatever file you want to listen to. Yet for years it was impossible to do something this basic without compromising on fidelity. If you wanted HD audio you were mostly stuck having to buy something like a Bluesound and navigate your music collection through its horrible app interface. Finally there's a better option in AptX HD. If you have an AptX HD-compatible receiver or amp, you can play wireless music not technically lossless but still at 24bit better-than-CD quality - *almost* realizing the dream of pressing Enter in your Windows folders and having the file play through a real stereo system.The "almost" is because Windows itself has no AptX HD compatibility so you need a solution like this to take over. I bought it to pair with Emotiva's TA1 amp, which has a built-in AptX HD Bluetooth receiver so requires no extra hardware beyond this little dongle: the complete system is 1) laptop, 2) dongle, 3) TA1, 4) speakers. I did experience some frustration at first with Windows trying to output through its regular Bluetooth instead of this dongle, which seemed stuck in an interminable pairing mode. The solution, which the help line at Emotiva helped me figure out after web searching proved fruitless, is to turn OFF Bluetooth on Windows. Then you plug this thing in, it automatically takes over as the audio output source, the amp automatically finds its signal - press enter on a FLAC and a little orange light pops up confirming your 24-bit signal as your room fills with music. It's been working flawlessly and as an essential component in an HD audio system for twenty-five bucks, it's hard to beat the value.It also felt pretty good buying another Creative Labs product after my first SoundBlaster circa 1991.
