Lasted roughly 2 years - great product but not much life in this Switch adapter.
I would recommend but I would also like something that could work for more than 2 years.

This bluetooth adapter is amazing! I use it all day (in home office) to connect my bluetooth headphones with my laptop, since it's bluetooth connection is better than my Laptop's. Additionally, switching to my Switch (no pun intended!) is super easy, since I can simply unplug my Genki Audio form my laptop and plug it into the Switch and the headphones automatically reconnect (without turning them off, etc.). I just love it!

Great addition to my switch accessories . Easy connectivity
The product took 1 month to arrive, I had to pick it up at a warehouse and the product was damaged.
Hi Zoe - we sincerely apologize! Mexico delivery has been relatively unstable during COVID and I can only begin to imagine what adventure the Genki Audio had to take to get to your place. Please reach us at genki@humanthings.co and we'll take care of this!
Ordered GuliKit along with the Genki to see which one is better and I honestly couldn't believe how easy it is to use and connect to compared to the GuliKit adapter. It connects with my AirPods in seconds after I turn my Switch back on, the latency does exist but compared to GuliKit it is almost unnoticeable. It's never disconnected for me, and the design is also great. The fact that it sticks out so much from the Switch was annoying me at first as I felt uncomfortable placing it down onto my duvet or blanket but it seems absolutely fine if you are careful with it. Also, the fact that you can charge your Switch whilst still using the adapter is, once again, great but I do sometimes feel like the movement of it when plugged into the Switch could potentially damage the USB C port, so you have to be careful with that. I would certainly recommend spending a little extra on this adapter.
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.
