I am afraid you misunderstood me because of language barrier.

After I connect BTR3 to the wired headphone using 3.5mm jack it becomes a bluetooth headphone connected to my laptop. Can i then play games on my laptop using this headphone? Will windows output Game audio to this headphone? or is the BTR only used to connect to phones, tablets to play music?

Dear friend,

So your laptop have Bluetooth output, right? If it could connect to other Bluetooth headphone, it could theoretically connect to the BTR3. And you could connect your wired headphone to the BTR3 and make it becomes a Bluetooth headphone.

Just got one of these. Why does it seem like I have to use more volume on my topping nx3s amplifier when connected to the ubtr vs my el-cheapo mpow Bluetooth receiver?
love the range I can get with this and it is spectacular with my kz zsn pro’s plugged directly into it.

I don't know why, but on my unit the sound quality is not good at all, even compared to plugging in the headphones directly in my phone (which doesn't have any fancy DAC or audio chip) sounds much much better than the μBTR. The bass is very muddy, and there's no instrument separation whatsoever, everything seems to blend into one.

I guess its good for commuting or maybe going to the gym since its cheap and i wouldn't care much if it broke, but when you put it side with a wired connection the difference is very obvious

Dear user,

You are using APTX or SBC Bluetooth codec? If you are using the SBC Bluetooth codec, the sound quality may not have big improvement.
You could try to compare by using APTX Bluetooth codec as well.

Does anyone else find the mic on the uBTR really echo-y? Is there any way to fix this?

Dear user,

Do you mean that you could hear your sound from the headphone connected to the uBTR as well？

No... the person on the other end has a hard time understanding me and sounds very echo-y and distant. Any help would be appreciated. Love the device otherwise but it’s not proving effective for voice calls.

I guess my real question is would the BTR1K or BTR3K mic sound better?

Thanks.

Dear user,

Would it be better if you keep closer to the microphone in the uBTR?

No... I tried from every angle and a few distances. Ended up getting the BTR1K... much better mic. Thanks for the responses.

I just bought one of these little guys and received it yesterday. I was quite happy with the sound using my Pixel 2 and Final Audio 3000s. However, the ubtr died within 24 hours. It came charged to 70%. I played with it for a little while, then charged it to 100%. I listened for about 5 or 6 hours, turned it off, and the next time I turned it on, it was dead. I figured I had used up the battery and plugged it in. Nothing. It won't charge and it won't turn on. Is there anything I can try before sending it back?

Dear friend,

Please try to charge it using another charger and cable, then hold the power button for 15s to force a restart.
If the problem still remains, please contact support@fiio.com with receipt attached.

Does the uBTR have enough power to properly run the Koss PortaPro without being too low volume or losing on quality?

We did not tested the μBTR with the device you mentioned. But you could read the parameter to see if it helps: https://www.fiio.com/μbtr_parameters

Output Power

≥20mW (16 Ω/THD＜1%) ≥ 10mW（32Ω/THD＜1%）
