I use a "rugged/armored" computer in the field and it is dust tight......unless the USB port door is open. So to eliminate the possibility of causing a problem of dirt depositing into the USB ports I thought Bluetooth devices would be an excellent means of mitigating this problem. I ordered both a Bluetooth mouse and a Bluetooth keyboard (Anker Bluebooth Ultra-Slim Keyboard for iPad). I attached both and the devices worked erratic, froze up randomly, and the mouse did not work smoothly but would spastically move across the screen.
I noticed that the issues were amplified if I was trying to run multiple Bluetooth devices. Looking online, Bluetooth should operate up to eight devices simultaneously and I had three in operation.  Should not have been an issue if the information on the web was accurate.
I am using Window 7 Professional 64 bit. Maybe the devices would work better with OS 8. I don't know. I am disappointed in the performance of these two devices. I would not buy again.

I found that the headphones and microphone input should not be shared. When using multiply USB devices the ports are sometimes too close

It works.  The CON is the cover over the USB port - poorly designed.

I needed to be able to hook my speakers (<a data-hook="product-link-linked" class="a-link-normal" href="/Logitech-Speaker-System-Z313/dp/B01LW71IBJ/ref=cm_cr_arp_d_rvw_txt?ie=UTF8">Logitech Speaker System Z313</a>) to the bluetooth receiver that came with them and to my desktop PC at the same time. This does the job, but it drastically reduces sound quality, especially when using the bluetooth device (even though my computer is turned off).

I've settled on unplugging it from the device I am not using, but leaving the designated jack right next to to the designated port, so that it is at least easier to switch back and forth than before. When it's only plugged into one device, it doesn't seem to reduce the sound quality.. but that defeats the whole purpose of the product.

Also, there is a lot of resistance when plugging a jack into the female jack of this product. At first I thought it was messed up. Just needed to push quite a bit harder than with a standard female jack.

I would have given a 5 star but after rare use the headphone stop connecting to Bluetooth devices on my families iPhones

Bought this item as part of the USB 3.0 hub and Bluetooth USB adapter, but I only really wanted the USB 3.0 hub to be able hook up my drives for data transfer purposes.  Unfortunately, after I connected 3 USB 3.0 external drives and 1 USB 2.0 external drive, the connections to all the drives kept dropping at random.  I dropped it down to 2 USB 3.0 drives and 1 USB 2.0 drive before things were happy.  I think it may be a power issue to the hub that the included adapter may not be able to supply enough juice to the USB 3.0 connectors on the hub.  I know it's not the cables or connectors to and from the drives since they were just out of the box and work fine when connected to all my remaining USB ports on my desktop.

It was a cheap price for the item so I can still get some use out of it.  But if you're looking for something that can truly handle 4 USB 3.0 connections, you may want to look elsewhere.

The Kinivo Bluetooth adapter works as advertised, but isn't as plug-and-play as expected. While Windows recognized the drive and could install the  drivers, to actually connect a Bluetooth headset required the install disk. Not a problem, but newer laptops may be missing a drive.

The USB ports are a little close together; some flash drives cannot be plugged in to adjacent ports.  Works fine for regular USB cables.  The buttons are a convenient way of disconnecting a device without having to unplug it.

Ailment:  Too many USB devices to connect and not enough ports -- especially 3.0 ports.
Treatment:  This Hub solved all of that.  It is small and lightweight enough to tuck out of the way.
Prognosis:  All of my devices work like a charm and are expected to survive.

works well except when the device is charging via the USB port, there is static

It is all right,  At first I got a bluetooth notice that there was a problem.  But it works now. The problem was solved.

A nice cheap bluetooth adapter for short distance use of bluetooth devices. Plug it in, sync it with your device and forget about it.

I bought this for two features - USB 3.0 and 7 USB ports.  I have three USB 3.0 drives connected, a Logitech mouse and a cell phone.  I plan to add a Blu-ray drive in the near future and an external keyboard, so all of  the ports will get used!  All of ports work, but with a caveat that the hub doesn't always support hot insertion of a device. The disk drives transfer data a lot faster (I have a Win8 Ultrabook with a USB 3.0 port that shows the transfer speed).

I gave it four stars instead of 5 because of the hot switching issue.
Update August 2013 - This hub has stopped working as a hub. I can only connect one device to it. If I connect more than one device the hub stops working. Power cycling helps for a little while, but I think this design is flawed.  Too bad.

I love bluetooth headphones for the fact that you never worry about a cord being attached. These are the second pair of bluetooth headphones I have tried. They are easy to use, I didn't have to read the directions to figure out how to use them. The sound quality is pretty good, I didn't have any problem with that.

There were two problems in my opinion. One is the voice prompts when you pair them with a device or turn them off. I personally find voice prompts very annoying. Most other bluetooth devices have a simple beep or series of beeps. Another problem is that I could not keep them in my ears at all. The cord that connects them together rubs on your skin a bit, which gives it enough friction to pull them out of your ears when you turn your head.

Another suggestion from me would be to offer other colors besides lime green.

Nice idea, but it causes bluetooth receiver/player to hiss when plugged in. Can't use it.

Great product that protects the USB port from collecting dust.

The product works as intended. The need for an internal USB port (which is different from an external USB port) for Bluetooth wasn't an issue, as it was completely unused. The Bluetooth works great, and I had no connectivity issues. The device also comes with an antenna which sticks to magnetic computer cases. This is used to connect to Wi-Fi. I did sometimes have my Wi-Fi cut in and out, but it only happened for about a day a week after I got it, so I think it was just my internet being weird.  If you need a decent Wi-Fi/Bluetooth card for a custom computer build, I would definitely recommend this.
