This USB-C dongle adds Bluetooth audio to the Nintendo Switch
You Can Now Use Wireless Headphones With Your Nintendo Switch Thanks to This Dongle
Genki Audio only uses 0.02 watts, taking up less than 1% of the Switch’s battery life and in fact uses less power than if you were to use the built-in speakers.
Yes, this package comes included with a dock adapter that allows you to use Genki Audio with the USB ports found on the Covert Dock or original dock.
Yes, absolutely!
Genki Audio will work with any device that supports USB audio, this includes the PS4, MacBooks, iPad Pros, most PCs and Android devices. The XBox One and Oculus Quest do not currently support USB audio.
Genki brings audio sharing across two bluetooth headphones so it can be convenient when watching a movie with someone on a plane for example. It also brings lower latency for gaming if you have an aptX compatible headphones or speakers.
The passthrough USB-C port is fully PD compliant and allows you to charge the Switch at its full 18 watt max input as if it were charging directly through the console’s port.
While it will work with some enclosures such as the Satisfye grip, there are many cases that need a slight modification. Mostly it’s due to the bottom of the case being too thick and/or not being cut wide enough. You can simply cut out a wider opening and this actually fits snugger. We used to make extended versions but we found this to be overly complicated and that modifying the case has been a more reliable solution.
When a power source is detected, Genki Audio immediately swaps its power source from the Switch to the external power and is for that split second unpowered. Since there is no battery to have to charge, it will disconnect briefly.
