Griffin iTrip Clip Bluetooth Headphone Adapter with Controls - Play, Control and Talk on Your Smartphone Without Wires

Fantastic item. Incredibly small. It worked with my iPhone 7 (no thanks to them for removing the headphone port and consolidated it with the lightning charger port!) Since I had to choose between charging my phone OR using the headphones, I decided to go with this little item. Now I can charge my phone at Starbucks AND watch my videos without disturbing anyone around me. This is handy for those who still have 3.5mm headphones and don't want to shell out money to buy NEW bluetooth headphones to replace it. Whether you NEED this item like I did, or you just want it so you don't have to buy new bluetooth headphone replacements, this headphone adapter is PERFECT! However, you might have to fidget with it for a while for other bluetooth devices, like my Nexus HD7 tablet where I had to change the settings to connect.

This makes the switch from headphone jack to wireless headphones so much simpler. It works exactally like it ought to. However, minor flaws make it lose one star. The control panel on the device works... Most of the time... But it could be done better. Adjusting volume and skipping to next song/podcast is easier to operate on the phone than on the device. Battery life is actually awesome. Usually lasts a full day of medium to heavy use. Bluetooth connectivity works perfectly... I wait to do my reveiws for at least 2 weeks because yesterday I found that the device connected but wasn't receiving audio. I eventually got it to work through dis/re connecting a few times but it wasn't seamless. Phone calls are a bit hard to advertise because the mic doesn't actually go through your headphones, it goes through the device. So you need to either hold the end of your headphones up to your mouth, or clip it to your shirt just so you can talk. Overall, this has been the best accessory I've spent my money on for my pixel 2 sinoky because it makes it easier to use a device that ditched the traditional headphone jack. Not easy, but easier.

Excellent solution for using your own favorite wired headphones/earbuds over Bluetooth. Tiny, sounds great, nice clip, plenty of controls. Using it with a Pixel XL (gen 1) and all the controls (including access to the Google Assistant and phone calls) work great. I was worried about the loudness--don't, it really cranks out the volume. I destroyed my wired jack by using it at the gym and this solves that problem in a very affordable manner. Be sure to read the instructions and this product will be your favorite new friend. I also tried the BlueAnt Ribbon but the Griffin is far superior in audio performance that it's no contest.

Absolute garbage! IT connected to my PC using a BT adaptor, but sound quality was muffled, like an old AM radio, and the delay from video is ridiculous! As a comparison, I have a pair of Kinivo BT headsets that connect to the PC throught the same adaptor and sound is good and video delay is unnoticeable. So those reviewers stating that video delay is inherent with BT have obviously never used a decent pair of BT headsets. FYI, the Kinivo's are only $20-$30, so definitely not high-end. The Griffin would not connect correctly to my phone (Moto X Pure). It would pair, but then they would not be accepted as a headset or headphones. Apparently the BT drivers used in the Griffin are ancient. Their useless tech support simply blamed the phone. Again, the Kinivo's connect just fine to the phone and have no video sync issues. Tried to return only to have Amazon return to me saying I didn't send to the correct address EVEN THOUGH I USED THE STINKING LABEL AMAZON PROVIDED!!!! Of course I had to pay for shipping for the return, so now I'm out the original cost plus another $7 due to Amazon's stupidity!

Product: Griffin iTrip Clip, $20, BlueTooth mid low-fi receiver with remote control functions for volume, track selection, call receiving, pairing, on/off. Background: I'm an acoustic engineer, recording engineer, broadcaster, musician, loudspeaker engineer, inventor. Summary This is a very cute integrated product. The button functionality works well. Instructions in & on the package are non-existent. You must go to YouTube to watch the instructions for about 3 minutes. I would recommend this product if you are using in-ear 'phones of low quality ($30 or less), or you don't have refined ears. Audiophiles must look elsewhere for good sound. This product only delivers so much: volume, fidelity, time. What it does deliver is delivered in an ideal form factor: small size, good functional keys. Low volume output, hence the caveat to use very efficient headphones, or in-ear 'phones, only. At this price point, it's going to be impossible to find high power output, or high fidelity, or long battery life. This is a regular consumer product that stands out for convenience, size, functionality. Situation = Compact Product = Usual 30' broadcasting radius = Instruction available on YouTube: TheRealGriffinTech: iTrip Clip = Can be used as low fidelity BlueTooth receiver for hours for anything, including: earphones, very efficient closed headphones, headphones with amplifiers, active speakers that don't already have BlueTooth Pros + Good functionality + Works well for voice in telephone calls + Good keys + Reasonable price + Stays paired between on and off on my Samsung Cons - 4 to 6 hour run time is all you could expect for such small battery size, light weight, compact size. Battery is not replaceable. - General distortion: suitable for lower quality equipment, earphones, cars. - Bass Distortion, will not pump out much volume. Not for bassheads. - Requires equalization: 2 lowest musical octaves missing. - 1 highest musical octave missing. - Remaining treble has no phase coherence, transient response, et cetera. - In-ear beeping when you change anything, including volume, can be annoying. This is not audiophile quality gear.

It says on the packet makes any wired headphones wireless but it doesn’t! All it does is remove need to plug into a phone but you still need your wired headphones.

Récepteur de petite taille, bonne autonomie, idéal pour écouter les podcasts. Fonctionne bien évidemment également sur Android (dans mon cas le Samsung S7 Active) ! Sa conception légère avec pince intégrée permet de l'accrocher un peu partout sur des vêtements ou à sa taille, avec ou sans ceinture. Bien sûr il n'est pas aptX "low latency", et un léger décalage son/image se fait sentir à l'écoute lors du visionnage de vidéos, mais pour écouter de l'audio cela est très bon. Pour des podcasts cela est parfait, pour de la musique, on préférera peut-être un modèle beaucoup plus cher avec Bluetooth 4.2 et aptX de façon à profiter d'une bande passante un peu moins compressée. Le low latency serait lui utile pour réduire le retard audio lors du visionnage des vidéos. Les gros + : - Le prix = ~10€ ! - La différenciation de boutons volumes (+ & -) des boutons sauts avant & arrière ( │<< & >>│ ) Cela évite qu'en jouant avec le volume on passe accidentellement à la piste suivante. - La compacité - L'autonomie constatée de 6 à 8H - La légèreté (qui limite un décrochage accidentel : l'adaptateur reste fixé au cordon du casque, son poids ne le fait pas décrocher de la prise) - Le système d'accroche - La bonne qualité audio avec des basses présentes mais de façon raisonnable. (Utilisé avec des in ear Bose sans télécommande) Le - : Les fonctions avance & retour rapide ( │<< & >>│ ) ne fonctionnent pas sur le lecteur Youtube, mes lecteurs de podcast (Podcast Republic) ou audio (Foobar). Seuls les sauts de pistes sont pris en compte. Cela semble dû au fait que les 4 boutons (volumes et AV/AR) ne génèrent qu'une seule courte impulsion, même si une pression longue est prodiguée. Il n'y a pas de répétition automatique de la commande. Si quelqu’un avait un contre exemple à ce sujet, via notament un player particulier, je suis preneur. Deux regrets : - L'absence de signalement audio (série de bips par exemple) à la fin décharge de l'accu. Lorsque la batterie est déchargée, l'adaptateur s'éteint sans prévenir, sans bip, mettant toutefois en pause le fichier multimédia en cours de lecture. Un signal sonore bref, distinctif, indiquant 5 minutes d'autonomie restantes serait un gros plus. - J'adorerais que ce récepteur possède un simple interrupteur marche/arrêt à glissière au lieu de devoir maintenir un appui sur le bouton play/pause pour l'éteindre. On serait rassuré visuellement de son extinction sans devoir remettre un écouteur à l'oreille et jouer avec le bouton play. Les remarques de certains concernant la difficulté de réglage du volume n'ont pas été constaté : le volume peut se régler complémentairement par le smartphone (volume émission bluetooth) et l'adaptateur (= ~ pondération).

Odio gli auricolare BT da orecchio preferisco il modello da agganciare al bavero della camicia o maglione, ormai ne esistono pochi, dopo una delusione con altra marca ho preso questo modello. mesi che lo utilizzo e devo ammeteere che da soddisfazione, lo carico una volta la settimana, certo che faccio si e no 10 telefonate al giorno, ma la batteria dura, la voce è chiara ed anche il microfono funziona bene. l'aggancio è ottimo e resistente. Se si usano auricolari con mic. incorporato, lo stesso viene escluso e si inserisce quello del griffin.

Works great, moderate battery life, decent sound quality.

UPDATE: Nach zwei Jahren immer noch im Einsatz wie am ersten Tag! UPDATE: Nach bald einem Jahr immer noch absolut überzeugend! + Gute Verpackung +Material und Verarbeitung nicht hochwertig, für den Preis aber gut. + Sehr leicht, hängt fest an der Kleidung. + Kurze, leicht verständliche Anleitung auf Englisch und Französisch. Die Bilder sprechen im Grunde für sich. + 2 LEDs (blau, rot), die beim Einschalten, Verbinden und Aufladen visuelles Feedback geben. + Einschalten, Verbinden und Ausschalten durch Gedrückthalten der Play-Taste (3, 7, 5 Sekunden) + Sprachbefehle möglich (2 Sekunden drücken) - habe ich aber nicht versucht. + Verbindung sehr schnell und stark. Die angegebenen 10-15 m kann ich bestätigen. + Tonübertragung sehr gut, klar und ohne Rauschen. Mit durchschnittlichen Kopfhörern und keinem besonderen Anspruch bemessen. + Tasten klicken gut. Tastenverbindung ist gut, wenn auch mit leichter Verzögerung. + Bei Audible lösen die Vor-und Zurück-Tasten 30-Sekunden-Sprünge aus, bei Spotify Liedersprünge. Weder bei Spotify, noch bei Audible kann gespult werden. - Gerät hat eine eigene Lautstärke-Regelung, d.h. es wird nicht die Lautstärke am gekoppelten Gerät bedient. Für volle Lautstärke muss man also beides voll aufdrehen. - Sehr nervig sind die Voice-Over-Statusmeldungen [Bereit zum Koppeln], [Gekoppelt] etc. Die Frauenstimme ist sehr laut und kann weder abgeschaltet, noch reguliert werden. Alles in allem erfüllt es seinen Zweck sehr gut für die 20 €.
