## Description

Creative BT-W5 Smart Bluetooth 5.3 Audio Transmitter with aptX Adaptive, High-Resolution 24-bit / 96 kHz Audio, Device-Switching Function, Works with PC/Mac/Gaming Consoles

Review: This unit works well with a cellphone, yet has blown away my initial impressions on the phone when I plugged into a windows 10 or windows 11 PC. This unit does an authenticated 24bit 96000hz. Anyone hesitating about buying the BT-W3 get the BT-W4 instead it rocks. Comes with USB adapter to C works on PlayStation and anything I have tried it with. No other device I have tried works so well at the price. Don't believe other reviews, try this!
Review: Truly blown away by the improvement in sounds quality from stock pc Bluetooth connection. Also it just works, plug it into ps5, windows pc, macbook you name it, it works like a charm, no headaches. Absolutely worth the cost.

## Features

- RELIABLE HIGH-RESOLUTION 24-BIT / 96 KHZ AUDIO STREAMING - Enjoy consistent high quality audio playback for work and gaming. Featuring the latest aptX Adaptive codec that monitors signal levels within your environment, and the type of content being played, the audio transmitter dynamically adjusts streaming bitrate to consistently deliver robust, high quality and low latency audio playback
- SMART CODEC WITH AUTO-ADJUSTING BITRATE - Enjoy enhanced listening experience for your movie, music, and games, allowing it to sound just as great on wired headphones or speakers. Coupled with Bluetooth 5.3, it also automatically chooses the best available audio codec supported by your device, so you are guaranteed reliable and stable wireless audio each time you are connected
- EASY DEVICE SWITCH - Easily switch the output device you are connected to, without the hassle of needing to disconnect from your current device in order to switch to another device. Simply press Creative BT-W5's multifunction button to switch. The audio transmitter remembers up to 4 devices at a time. You can also do a manual switch or view the devices remembered via the Creative app
- CONVENIENT VOICE CHAT - Communicate clearly with your team over Bluetooth instantly with little to no disruptions in between. Enter Hands-free Profile (HFP) mode by pressing the multifunction button twice, to answer a quick phone call using the built-in mic on your headset
- PORTABLE, PLUG AND PLAY READY - Connect the audio transmitter to an available USB-C port and you're all set.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: According to creative site, chat/voice mic will only work if your bt hdset supports aptx-ll (not regular aptx) or faststream**
A: that is correct, make sure to buy a headset with the aptx-ll and not just aptx or the mic won't work.

**Q: Will this work with a bose ae2w headset to ps4?**
A: I have found that it works on a PS4 and will pair with a Jaybird X2. I can't guarantee that it will work with the Bose ae2w.

**Q: Creative - why do reviews say the mic does not work for ps4 when this is advertised to support communication over bt headset? FastStream codec req?**
A: Most likely, the headphone that they are using doesn't support Fastream or Aptx-LL voice back which is needed in order to use the mic function of the BT-W2.

**Q: Would this work with sony wh-1000xm2 and xm3?**
A: Hi! 
Tried to use Sony WH-1000XM3 with Creative BT-WT3. They work together, but I spend a lot of time to get why my headphones connect only over SBC.
The headphones has "Sound Quality Mode" settings with the following options: 
1) "Priority on Sound Quality"
2) "Priority on Stable Connection"

If you using the second option, they will connect over SBC only, and you can't change codec.
However, if you will choose the first option, you can connect over aptX (green led)
