About ASUS USB-BT500 Bluetooth 5.0 USB Adapter
Overall Feedback:
92% positive
77% liked the high-quality build, but 23% experienced durability issues
The adapter has been rock solid since I started using it. It connects to all my headphones as soon as I turn them on and the sound quality is excellent.
I am disappointed with the product. It was a letdown, despite usually loving the Asus brand.
91% liked its compatibility with multiple devices, but 9% had issues with certain brands
The adapter has an ultra-compact design and is perfect for laptops and PCs where USB space is limited.
I bought the adapter mainly to reconnect my pro controller to my PC, but it didn't work.
88% found it easy to install, while 12% had trouble with the process
Setting up the ASUS USB-BT500 is very easy and it is a true plug-and-play device.
Downloading and installing the driver was easy. It prompted me to do it and I just had a few clicks and it was done.
I faced difficulty in installing the Bluetooth adapter and was close to returning it.
86% praised for its extended range, while 14% experienced connection drops
The range of this adapter is definitely an upgrade over my old Asus BT400 and Plugable bluetooth usb 4.0 adapter. I did encounter audio drop outs and range issues with the old adapters in a few spots, but the BT500 adapter kept the audio going in those areas.
The Bluetooth range is only about 10 feet, which is much less than what I get with other Bluetooth devices.
My adapter's range is poor as it completely cuts out if my hand is in front of the headset.
82% appreciated the fast transfer speeds, though 18% experienced lag
I have not noticed any lag issues while using the Bluetooth adapter. File transfers are OK and it works great for mouse & keyboard.
I found that using the bluetooth-network-adapter provides faster transfer speed and functionality up to 6m without walls compared to using a wire.
I have experienced consistent and fast pairing with various devices, including headphones, speakers, and smartphones, thanks to the stable and efficient connections ensured by Bluetooth 5.0 technology.
Reconnecting to BLE devices with this dongle takes 2-3 times as long as it does on its no-name counterpart.
The adapter has been rock solid since I started using it. It connects to all my headphones as soon as I turn them on and the sound quality is excellent.
After posting my experience, Plugable contacted me and pointed out that desktop components without integrated bluetooth don't often bother with shielding to prevent interference.
