I had a POLK ZX Striker headset for my XBOX One but it stopped working in about 3 months. This new Turtle Beach Headset is so much better. It is comfortable when im wearing it. It can totally isolate the the CHAT and VDIEO GAME music from each other so that I only hear the chat and not the game. The ZX didnt do that. It has an on/off mic switch that is lit so you know when your muted.It has a bass boost button that gives you 3 ranges of bass boost. It also has detachable boom mic.The headstrap is also adjustable to your head. I have had it for a few weeks now and im very happy with it so far. It is so much better than the POLK ZX headset that I had.

I have an ASUS bluetooth adapter that looks the same as the Insignia adapter and performs the same functions, but the Insignia seems to be better in a few ways when I compared them. The insignia seemed to pick up devices quicker and then run my Bluetooth operations quicker as well, operations such as syncing devices to the pc and photo transfers. It also seems to have better range.

I had a Fitbit Charge HR before I owned this activity tracker and I like the Garmin much better. The only thing I liked more about the Fitbit was its app and it seemed to count stairs better. This Garmin does a terrible job at counting stairs climbed, it might give me 1 set of stairs climbed out of 4 so I dont rely on it for counting stairs climbed. I checked it against my old chest strap Heart rate monitor and it kept an almost perfect pace with my chest strap Heart rate monitor. It also has alot of user options on the tracker that are very helpful, but some of the options need to be changed with a PC usb link or bluetooth if your device supports bluetooth settings changes. I found that my battery lasted a great deal longer when I turned off the "Move" feature and the auto backlight feature. The "Move" feature just tells you move every hour or so if you have been sitting. The auto backlight feature is for when you flick your wrist upwards it lights up so you can see the face lit, it turns on alot when moving and lights up using alot of battery power. What I like most is that has so many more customizations on it when compared to the Fitbit and it also has a Constant heart rate monitor option for when your working out. Also it is waterproof.

What's great about it: convenient
What's not so great: confusing
I bought this for my XBOX One. I was watching a YouTube video that said if I plugged this into my 3.5mm headphone jack on my controller that I could split the sound on my mic and my headphones. I cant get it to work though and im not sure what im doing wrong. The adaptor itself is built well and sturdy and seems to be good quality but I think that it needs a special type of jack to work or maybe a special driver.

I have this hooked up to my XBOX One. I have an older surround sound system that only has the red/white AV hookup. This is converting the optical sound signal from the XBOX One and sending it to my my older analog sound system. It also has a reverse option on it as well and you can make it convert analog to optical as well. There is a switch on the side of it that controls the conversion, if your converting optical to analog you switch it to the optical side, if your converting analog to optical you switch it to the analog side. I can now listen to my XBOX One on my old sound system.

How much bigger is the extra large from the regular one

I had the reg size one and when I tightened it I only had about 4 notches left, I bought the extra large one and now when I tighten it I have about 12 notches left and I feel that the difference between reg and extra large is a big difference I think the strap is about 2 inches longer on XL one which is very noticeable when on your wrist.

How accurate are step and distance counts? I often push a wheelchair and my arms don't move much..

If you find that it is not measuring steps and distance to your satisfaction you can change how it measures the steps and distance in the device setting option on your Garmin profile to make it more accurate. It has a default setting for measurements that I find to be very accurate for me most of the time. If i count my steps and then check the tracker it is usually only off by 1 or 2 steps at most times. You can change how it measures though.

Will this work on Olevia TV?

I have an older TV with analog input (red/white cables) and a new Directv Genie box that is digital audio output (orange plug). Will this device solve my problem? Currently cannot get sound to come out of TV.
The orange plug is not the same as this. Optical and orange cable are different. You need to convert the analog to the orange plug and not optical.

Anolog to optical

I bought a sound bar that has optical jack, but my TV does not. Will this work to bridge the gap?
It will if your TV has the red white analog hook up on it.
