APEKX Clip Bluetooth Audio Adapter for Headphones, Headset, Speaker, Wireless Receiver with MIC for Hands-Released Call and Music

I've used a few consumer bluetooth headsets. I never felt good about the two-piece kind, they felt insecure and the touch surface control was hard to work with. I use several of the ones on a cord, but even then, they have been uncomfortable and if I lay down on them, I keep pressing buttons. A while ago, I got a set of KBEAR KS1 Ear Monitor Earphones for another purpose, but found them so comfortable, I began using them for casual music listening. Wouldn't it be great if they were bluetooth enabled? I looked for an adapter and found the APEKX. It was small and seemed like it should do everything I needed. It's been perfect. The cord on the earpieces is not a problem at all and the APEKX either clips onto something or goes in a pocket. The KBEARS are so comfortable I can lie down in bed and listen without any discomfort or muffled sound all while using bluetooth. Working around the house is also trouble free. Battery life has not been a noticeable problem. I have run them down after falling asleep, but the useable time is more than I'd expect and not a problem. Pairing has been easy with multiple devices. No different than other bluetooth devices. I thought I had a problem with the volume up button not working, but it turned out to be sticking and a good firm press freed it up. Others complaining about the buttons might try that. All in all, the APEKX has lived up to all my expectations and is well worth the price. The small size and convenience is exceptional.

This solves all of my problems with hooking up my phone to an audio device. The most reliable bluetooth pair of earbuds could be very expensive and also could get lost easily. Then there are the wired kinds that I have to stick through my shirt so they don't get caught and even then there could be risks. This economically efficient tool requires only the cheapest headphones without the mic and volume keys to be used and it works wonders. It is good for working out as well as sharing music inside cars.

Works great, like the clip. Battery doesn’t last all day.

Solid product that allows me to use the few earbud designs that fit my ear (all wired). Easy to use and works as advertised, with clear sound and decent microphone performance. I've been using this device heavily for almost a year, and I'm looking for a replacement as the battery life has degraded. I wish they had made it a little bulkier and chosen a higher quality battery. I'd pay extra for the convenience of not having to shop for a new one; especially as it seems there are several almost identical-looking options on the market now.

The build quality seems solid and the buttons provide a distinctive tactile (but silent) feedback when pressed. I'm hoping that the battery and electronics stand up to the ravages of time: I like this little device! Power on/off & Pairing: After turning it on, the device paired almost instantly with my phone. The documentation was a bit vague on the process, alas, though in retrospect the implementation makes sense: The instruction on powering the device on are after the part that talks about pairing, and the pairing instructions don't refer you to powering on the device. As the device had a little blue dot glowing after I charged it, and I had not explicitly powered it on, I was wondering what action I should take to actually start the pairing process. After turning on the device the pairing process was almost instant and smooth as silk, however. I powered off the device and then on again, and it connected to my phone within a second or two. Audio quality: The audio quality from my phone is perfectly clear, and loud enough that I could probably cause myself hearing damage if I turned up phone and headset volumes to max. Audio controls (possible problem, though it might be my phone): I cannot seem to get a response from the volume +/- buttons. I suspect that the device does not regulate its own volume internally but transmits volume commands via bluetooth to my phone, and my phone ignores these. I can change volume on my headset directly, and on my phone as well, so I am not affected. Bluetooth range: Audio cuts out abruptly at a distance of about 20-25 feet (6–7½ meters) which is less than advertised but I do have several computers and a fish tank pump running along the measured path. Minor UX gripe: The large center button (play/pause) is also used to power on/off the device (press and hold for 3+ seconds). If you do not have headphones connected, you cannot hear the on/off chimes, nor can you see the status lights change under your thumb to know whether you've pressed the button long enough.

Risolutivo, ottime prestazioni, con cuffie Bose, nessuna perdita nella qualità del suono. Connessione con IPhone nessun problema. Combo perfetta per le mie sessioni di trail running!

La verdad me sorprendió la calidad, muy buena ,venía muy bien empaquetado,se escucha muy bien los auriculares, no es verdad lo que dice un comentario de más abajo, de seguro sus auriculares son chafas o algo asi.11/10

It works pretty good even when you are far away from it and even when there are objects between the phone and the bluetooth's device

No llevo auriculares bluetooth para correr (y he probado muchos) por dos motivos: no encuentro ninguno que no tenga que estar constantemente ajustando al oído para que no se caiga y todos han acabado fallando por el sudor. Por ello prefiero usar un receptor bluetooth de pinza, que coloco a salvo del sudor, y unos auriculares "de patillas" como los Philips de la foto, baratos y muy duraderos. Este modelo concreto que uso hace un par de semanas me está gustando mucho, es ligero, tiene buena autonomía (no hago salidas de más de dos horas...) y botones de acceso directo a tema atras, adelante, volumen arriba, abajo, ok Google... que en otros que he probado requieren utilizar los mismos botones con varias pulsaciones en función de lo que quieras hacer. Mucho mejor un botón por función, corriendo es más sencillo acertar... El sonido está muy bien, increible en esta gama de precio. Respuesta plana en todo el espectro, sonido muy claro y techo de volumen muy alto. Compra recomendada, sin duda. Única mejora que propondría: toma de carga USB type-C, la micro USB ya apenas se usa.

Mini-TRS-uttaget (3,5mm, 3-pol, Tip Ring Sleeve) är inte kompatibelt med nyare hörlurar med mikrofon som har mini TRRS-kontakt (3,5mm, 4-pol, Tip Ring Ring Sleeve). Man kan komma runt detta genom att dra ut kontakten ca 2mm eller bättre, komplettera med en 3,5mm TRRS till TRS-adapter. (Bäst vore om tillverkaren gjorde som andra och anpassade uttaget för båda kontakttyperna.)
