Pairs easily, works well with no detectable lag
I purchased this repeater for my upcoming trip to Florida and paired it with the Bose Quiet Comfort headphones. Initially, I had some trouble pairing the device; however, as the pairing instructions recommended, I made the connection after turning off other Bluetooth devices.
Before the flight, I fully charged the device and my headphones. During the 5-hour flight, the repeater worked quite well, not once dropping the connection or experiencing issues. Not having wires hanging around ready to tangle you to the seat was immensely liberating.
The sound quality was good, and I did not notice any lag. After the flight, the repeater was still close to full charge, so I did not charge it for the return flight home.
Overall, I am pleased with the device. The easy-to-read charge level is a nice touch, and it works well with my headphones. Pairing with two Bluetooth devices is a nice addition for those traveling with kids.

âï¸âï¸âï¸âï¸âï¸ Works Perfectly for In-Flight Entertainment!
I recently used this Bluetooth adapter on a flight, and it was an absolute game-changer. Pairing was seamless when set up ahead as the instructions mention. My wireless headphones (Bose Quite Comfort Ultras) were connected, and the audio quality was clear with no noticeable lag.
The compact design is perfect for travel, and the battery life easily lasted through my entire flight. And! The color matches my headphones love the aesthetic. If you hate dealing with being tied to the seat in-front of you with a cord or the cheap airline-provided wired headphones, this little device is a must-have for frequent flyers! Highly recommend.

Fantastic product, fantastic packaging, fantastic manual
This is one of the best Chinese manufactured USB transmitter that I have ever used. The packaging was very well designed and the manual was one of the best manuals Iâve ever seen. It includes a QR code to guide you through the installation and the printed manual was easy to read without a magnifying glass and very concise and straightforward. The installation worked on my very first time. I would endorse Avantree and will look to purchase future products from. Two great big thumbs up.
Oh, I forgot to mention that the product comes with a very nice small travel bag for the transmitter and cables, and an adapter plug for certain AirLine watching. Unfortunately, it did not include any charging provisions.

needs a good imput power level
Works fine, pairs great and easy, battery holds up. I use it a the gym with Bluetooth headphones If I get a treadmill with a weak audio output jack this gadget will not boost it up to acceptable levels. Easy solution, moved to a different piece of equipment.

Provides Old TV a Bluetooth Speaker
I love this thing! I leave it plugged into my old bedroom TV (2010 LG Model) with the USB charger cord plugged into the TV, too. I have been blown away with the sound quality and extreme low-latency. Plug and play, no audio/lip sync BS, stays on so no steps after setup to bother with, etc. I have an old Sony SRS-XB01 Bluetooth Speaker on my nightstand I paired this with and leave plugged in and turned on. No issues with anything, and so freaking cool!

Great device for using your own earbuds/earphones
Saw a similar product on a Facebook ad. Don’t really trust FB for ecommerce so I found this. Easy to pair and worked great. I connected this to my sound cancelling earphones and it worked great. The flight was 7 hours and they held their charge. Even if they were close to losing power, if your airplane TV screen has a USB, you can use the charger cable to keep them going. But again, after 7 hours they were still connecting. No more cheap airline earphones.

Works well, pairs easily!
I purchased this before our trip to Europe so we could use our bluetooth headphones with the airplane entertainment system. It fit into the outlet and easily paired with our headphones. The battery lasted quite a long time, and we were able to use it while it was charging when it finally ran out. I bought my husband his own for Christmas because he liked it so much! I liked that it is very compact and came with as small bag which holds it and its charging cord which easily fits into my headphone case! Highly recommend!

Almost a great product
Never knew something like this existed but after using it in my 17 hrs flight from us to india, i liked it a lot. I was able to connect my airpods with the entertainment system and it was game changing. I was able to watch the movies and listen to music with noise cancellation. Now it works great when it does but all of as sudden it looses connection and them you have to do the connection process again. Although it happened once during the whole time i was using it, it did make it a little unreliable. i also felt some latency while watching few movies so that is also a big negative. For music, it doesnât matter. Overall a good product with potential to be great.

These came in very handy on my last trip. It was compatible with a iPhone and a Samsung. The range seemed pretty good we had no issues. It connects super easily and is way better and more comfortable than the AirPod wired headphones they give you. Has good volume control and made of great quality. Good price too!

Compact, simple, pratique, bref, excellent produit.
J’en ai 2, et les 2 présentent parfois quelques déconnections intempestives, pas grave, on éteint et rallume et c’est reparti.
