UGREEN Bluetooth 5.4 Adapter USB dongle for PC

This compact USB Bluetooth dongle brings Bluetooth 5.4 connectivity to desktops and laptops, improving wireless reach and reducing interference for streaming audio and gaming. If you need a small, plug-and-play USB Bluetooth dongle for PC to connect controllers, headsets and peripherals, this adapter aims to simplify pairing and keep multiple devices active at once.

Key Points

The adapter supports both classic BR/EDR and BLE modes, which helps when using a mix of older and newer Bluetooth accessories. It can maintain simultaneous connections with up to five devices, allowing a controller, headset, mouse, keyboard and smartphone to be linked at the same time. This makes switching between tasks easier without constantly re-pairing devices.

Plug-and-play compatibility is provided for Windows 11, 10 and 8.1, so setup is usually immediate on those systems. Consider that drivers are required for Windows 7, and the adapter is not compatible with Linux or macOS according to the manufacturer. The product can interface with PS5, PS4 and Xbox controllers through the PC, but it does not function directly with the gaming consoles themselves. 🎮

Range and stability have been improved compared with older Bluetooth versions, which can help when moving about the room or when using wireless speakers at a distance. The dongle is tiny and light at 20g, so it stays discreet in a laptop or desktop USB port and is convenient to carry for travel. 🔋

Benefits

Because the adapter uses Bluetooth 5.4, latency and interference are reduced in many typical home and office environments. This is useful for low-latency audio and responsive input when gaming with controllers linked via the PC. The support for BLE also helps preserve battery life on connected peripherals and mobile devices.

Its small footprint reduces the risk of accidental damage when a laptop is moved and avoids blocking adjacent USB ports. The ability to keep several devices connected at once cuts down on the time spent re-pairing and improves workflow for multimedia and productivity tasks.

Usage Recommendations

Place the adapter in a rear or top-mounted USB port if possible to reduce obstruction and keep a clear line of sight to paired devices. For gaming, pair your controller through the PC rather than attempting console pairing, since the dongle does not work directly with PS5, PS4 or Xbox systems. If you plan to use the adapter with older operating systems, download the necessary drivers beforehand to avoid setup delays. Also, consider that performance can vary in environments with many competing wireless signals, according to the manufacturer.
