If it was a cheap USB dongle then it probably wont support Aptx since it probably has a licensing fee to use. SBC if I'm not mistaken is like MP3 and pretty difficult to protect as easily.
That said, just hope it sounds decent. Be sure to tweak the settings with the adapter to get the best quality possible.
At the very worst you have a decent pair of BT headphones for your phone.
I personally have a $30ish BT amp I got from Amazon and some Koss KSC75's for $15 and I use it with my FireTV at night when my wife is sleeping to watch TV or whatever. There's a slight delay by a few hundred milliseconds but it's not a huge deal considering I'm completely wireless.
At the end of the day if it sounds good then who cares if it has the newest technology... I'd rather have it than not but my Nexus 6 doesn't support aptx and I'm not crying. Not that it'd matter even if I did.
Aah nice yeah I feel the same way in order to get rid of the wires I would happily sacrifice some SQ especially when I am traveling I have a Nexus 4 phone. Having listened to a number of different headphones over the years high end headphones that is, and realizing there is no difference between FLAC and 320k mp3 to the human ear, or realizing most headphones above $100 hardly has any improvement in quality I think I will make do with these Sony.
If the battery lasts me 4 years I am cool with that won't bother replacing it by that time we will have Bluetooth 5.0 or whatever and i am certain way better stuff so when that time reaches I am sure I would end up investing a lot more into a much better wireless setup
