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! Read more

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. Read more

It works for chat but the game sound has a 1or 2 second lag so it doesn't match up. Read more

This is the best value for money! It fit perfectly in controller, has a built in microphone, can sync to anything bluetooth with speed! The battery life is almost infinite. I love the touch screen and quality and the speed of syncing! Read more

First off, for all those people who keep complaining about how you cant use your airpods mic and how its such an amazing mic but you cant use it, its impossible. Its just impossible to stream high quality mic audio, and high quality bluetooth audio at the same time, with little latency. Its not gonna happen. When you use the mic on your airpods, they switch to hands free calling, it makes the audio quality worse so that it can fit the mic data. Airpod mics are made for phone calls, or meetings, your meant to hear voices, not gaming sessions with minimal latency and crystal clear quality. And other headsets are able to achieve this because they use something either completely different than bluetooth, like 2.4ghz or a special radio signal like xbox's official wireless headset. Now, let's say that it was possible to get amazing mic audio and sound, great, everyones happy. But now you're battery is gonna die in probably an hour. Read more
