Creative BT-W6 Wireless Bluetooth 5.4 and LE Audio Transmitter with Snapdragon Sound, aptX Lossless, Low Latency and up to 24-bit / 96 kHz Audio, Works with PC/Mac/Gaming Consoles

Impressive item to have a portable Bluetooth device, much better than its direct competitors such as Fiio EP-11 Eppfun AK3040 Pro MAX and FMA120. Probably not better than Questyle QCC Dongle Pro which costs double and new Fiio Air Link which has same price range with much better features. For desktop use, there's nothing better than Fiio BTA30 Pro and iFi Blue Zen 3 as Bluetooth transmitters. Impressions: - Very Small, Solid performance with some few annoying glitches same as BT-W5. It's not compatible with all TWS's such as Jabra, SoundPeats and Sennheiser TW's doesn't work properly(fixed). - There's a 1~2 seconds delay after you hit pause to your audio reproduction. - Creative App is an impressive app which allow you to tweak/adjust your EQ settings and other useful functions like GMAP and LE Audio: Broadcast mode. - There's also an option for Preference for Aptx Adaptive and Aptx Lossless which allows you to select between Low Latency and High Quality. - Audio Reproduction is crispy clear with high quality audio reproduction, specially from sources like Tidal and even YT Premium 4k music videos. - A few bugs here and there that hopefully Creative will keep updating its amazing Creative App for Windows 11. Some of the bugs on BT-W5 have been worked out on BT-W6. LDAC codec is not supported which is big limitation for those who like myself who has a few LDAC BT devices. - Some issues pairing and reconnecting SoundCore Speakers, I tested 3 of them, all different models(fixed) - Some issues pairing and reconnecting SoundPeats TWS with Creative App.(fixed) Tested it with 2 fast Ryzen 7 and Ryzen 9 PC's. Update on 2025-10-11, after doing a firmware update and updated creative driver to latest 3.5.1.0, 1~2 seconds delay issue has been fixed. I also noticed some improvements on audio quality thru all my sennheiser TWS's and Soundcore BT speakers. There's some new features on software also like "acoustic engine" and "sound mode". Highly recommended BT audio device for the serious listener on a budget. Update on 2025-12-28, after hitting on Creative App the option to "Reset Bluetooth List", I couldn't pair any of the same BT devices have been working with before. I contacted Creative tech support and they sent me a bunch of steps to troubleshoot, none of them worked. I simply fixed it by unplug it and plug it back on another USB-C port on my PC. I was able to successfully pair two(2) of my previous BT devices, a Sennheiser CW Plus and SoundCore 3 BT speaker, however when I attempted to pair any of my SoundCOre Motion plus BT Speakers, it bugged out by showing me the option to pair but didn't work. After that bug, I'm unable to pair anything else on BT-W6. Just ordered a couple of FiiO Air Link BT transmitters and should arrive tomorrow. I'm guessing Creative should release soon a new dongle with LDAC support like Fiio Air Link and QCC Dongle Pro do, if they come out with a BT-W7, I'd buy it right away. - Another glitch with BT-W6 when I click on another YT video, sound volume decreases by 4, randomly, it doesn't happen all the time but is very annoying. I already reported all those issues with BT-W6 to Creative tech support. For a solid troubleshoot-free Bluetooth transmitter with the highest possible BT audio quality, look no further than iFi Blue Zen 3 which is able to store up to 8 paired Bluetooth devices or the amazing Fiio BTA 30 Pro which only disadvantage is that it can only store up two(2) paired Bluetooth devices, but also costs much less than current champ in BT transmitters for desktop use(Blue Zen 3) because they're not portable to use on a smartphone.

Good product

Great product. Great sound. Would have been a 5 star if the setup was simple. Followed the instructions, but took forever to get the app to sync with the device. And this needs to happen, because the firmware needs to be updated, for the product to work properly. There must be some bug with this device, bucause every time I connected it, my WiFi went of and the I had to wait sometime for it to connect. Had to restart the computer, so many time, because without WiFi, the firmware can not be updated. I nearly gave up, and then it came right. After the firmware update, the device works much better and connect to the application easily.

I got this because I got a set of momentum 4 headset to use on the ps5 & It's a game changer for Bluetooth audio, & it doesn't interfere with standard BT on your PC for controllers or KB&M because it's registered as a sound device

I got the Creative BT-W6 Bluetooth adapter to connect my laptop to my Bose Soundlink Flex 2, which supports AptX via Snapdragon Sound. My laptop’s built-in Bluetooth only allowed SBC or AAC, causing lip sync delays and choppy connections—frustrating for watching videos. The moment I plugged in the BT-W6 and selected AptX Adaptive Low Latency in the Creative app, everything changed. The connection became stable, and the audio-video sync was finally perfect. I can finally watch movies and music without any interruptions or lag. This adapter does exactly what it promises, and I am very happy. Highly recommended! Update: I really like it, so I bought a second one for my office. Now I can use my Bose speakers at both home and office PCs. The only minor issue I am having is that it is not easy to connect and disconnect different bluetooth speakers. It reconnects easily to my Bose speakers, but if I try to reconnect to my Soundcore Motion Plus speaker, the app freezes or gives an error that it cannot connect. Then I have to reset the dongle and connect from the beginning, which is annoying.
