AUDIO
Real-time Audio Sync with aptX® Low Latency
With traditional Bluetooth dongles, you sometimes experience instances where the
original audio is not in sync with your headset. Creative BT-W2 adopts the aptX
Low Latency codec to eliminate that annoying lag you can get and ensures smooth
transmission.
Keep the original audio source in sync with your Bluetooth device using BT-W2.
aptX Low Latency technology is cleverly designed to overcome bandwidth constraints and latency issues so you can stream audio without any interruption or noticeable delay*. aptX also enables higher level of audio detail so you can listen to great sound quality all the time.
*Receivers need to support aptX-LL audio codec for optimum audio performance.
VOICE COMMUNICATION
True Bluetooth® Voice-back Channel for Voice
Communication
Unlike other Bluetooth transmitters, Creative BT-W2 features a Bluetooth
voice-back channel that transmits voice back to the transceiver over Bluetooth
when used with compatible headsets*. Enjoy effortless, clear communication as
you dodge gunfire and call for reinforcement.
*Paired device needs to support Bluetooth FastStream codec to utilize Vocal Back channel.
CONNECTIVITY
Plug and Play Functionality
Simply plug Creative BT-W2 into your PC or Mac and instantly play audio over
Bluetooth and straight through your Bluetooth-enabled device. No extra steps, no
additional software installation, and no charging required. The BT-W2 draws
negligible power from your device so you can focus on the important things.
Emerge Victorious!
