## Description

Product description Smart Bluetooth 5.3 Audio Transmitter with aptX HD Step up on your wireless experience and enjoy seamless audio playback with Creative BT-W3X! With Bluetooth 5.3 and aptX HD codec, connectivity issues are reduced to a minimum. An intuitive device switching toggle allows you to connect to and seamlessly switch between up to 4 wireless receivers. IT’S SMART AND RELIABLE Creative BT-W3X offers high-definition 24-bit audio at 48 kHz when streaming with aptX HD. Along with Bluetooth 5.3, enjoy stable, high-quality, and reliable connection for your music, movies, and games. It also automatically chooses the best available audio codec supported by your device, so you are guaranteed the best possible Bluetooth audio every single time. EASY DEVICE SWITCH The intuitive device switching function on Creative BT-W3X allows you to easily change the output device you are connected to, with literally just press of a button. HANDS-FREE CALLS Double press on the Bluetooth button on Creative BT-W3X to enter HFP mode, and use voice chat with the built-in microphone on your Bluetooth headset. LIGHTWEIGHT AND PORTABLE Creative BT-W3X is extremely lightweight at just 3g and features a small build. It is also powered via USB-C and draws minimal power from your device so that you can continue to listen to high-resolution 24-bit audio on your Bluetooth receivers or devices.

Review: Tons of features, USB-C, and now an App that provides extra value - I own several Creative Labs products now, including speakers, headphones, USB DACs, and external Soundblaster sound cards. My opinion about the brand is always mixed and I often ask myself “why do I still consider this brand”. In terms of hardware, the Creative products are usually good. In terms of software, they have all been a disappointment. Enter the BT-W3X. Again, the hardware is great. In contrast to most available Bluetooth dongles, this one has USB-C, a status light for the codec used, and a physical button for additional functionality. It is a very complete package and works right out of the box. I especially enjoyed the status light – I never knew what codec my headphones use, now I do. I was apprehensive about installing the software. You do not need it, the product will run without software. However, the new Creative App was actually a positive surprise. It works! It adds more functionality to the product (such as a Equalizer and DSP called “acoustic engine”). Together with the working app, this product has more features than advertised and is just a joy to use. You can use this dongle to fix a broken Bluetooth adapter, upgrade your outdated Bluetooth version, and reduce the need for pairing your headphones again and again and again on different devices. To me, it was definitely worth its price.
Review: 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.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Good for Locked-down Corporate Laptops
*by W***D on December 31, 2024*

I bought this to enable use of my bluetooth headphones for my Zoom or Team calls for my Corporate job. This product has equalizer and mixer settings that will enhance your microphone voice to sound rich and strong. This product will pair 4 devices, and the companion app (i installed this on my personal computer) is how you would configure the dongle. I was able to configure HFP mode to automaticaly turn on when I join calls. So be aware you DO NOT have to always press the button twice to manually enable it. I don't have aptX earbuds, so cannot comment. What I can say is I tried also two other popular brands (I don't think Amazon will let me directly call them out) that are top results when searching for a solution to my problem. These others performed unacceptably or had technical problems with maintaining a connection. I was considering waiting for the Creative BT-W6, but my research shows there are some growing pains here, and I am not an early adopter. There are two competing manufacturers (Qualcomm and Mediatek) that seem to be building different implementations of LE audio in their chipsets used by these consumer product companies, so it will be a long time before I will have confidence in buying any dongle and LE device and expecting them to work together. So the Creative BT-W3x will have utility for me in the years to come. With information security lockdowns on corporate equipment likely to increase, the need for a solution to pair your personal headphone to the corporate equipment is going to increase. Good job, @Creative!
