    The only thing I don't care for about the Skull & Co AudioStick Bluetooth 5.0 Adapter for Nintendo Switch/Lite is how far it sticks out from the console. I like the size better of the Genki Audio Lite Bluetooth 5.0 Adapter for Nintendo Switch/Lite better. That one does for me just what I want/need it to whole stick out from the Switch to much. Sure it only allows you to connect one pair of headphones at a time but it is compatible with bluetooth speaks, built-in mic of bluetooth headsets too. I am sure it will work with everything the Skull & Co adapter does just need the right adapter for it. The one I was going to get if not for the size of the one from Genki would have been the one from Skull & Co. Afterseeing your review of it, It seems like the Skull & Co & the Genki 50. bluetooth adapters are two great choosed for adding bluetooth to a Switch/Lite and other devices.

      The only way it would do that is if there was... crud, what's it called... CEC, that's it, if CEC is enabled for that HDMI port it could possibly turn the tv on when the Switch is docked and turn it off when the Switch is removed.

    • @RoXolid
      @RoXolid  3 ปีที่แล้ว

      I haven't noticed a major difference, and there's no charging at all it just takes voltage from the Switch for power (no battery). You figure the speakers draw power to work, the BT adapter draws about the same or possibly less.

    I noticed there seems to be two different revisions of this adapter. On another review video I saw, his adapter has the "LL" instead of the mic icon on the right side. Does your voice chat on the PS5 work well with your airpods/airpods pro? In another other review, he mentioned that the user must change the mic input to the dualsense controller. On amazon reviews, people are reporting dropped audio quality when using voice chat. Seems there may be some discrepancies and I'm trying to figure out if newer adapters are resolving the issues reported.
