- Reviewed in the United States on April 22, 2021I’ve liked the products Skull & Co. puts out since their first comfort grip case for the Switch. Since then they have improved the design even further and it’s obvious they put a lot of thought and care into their products.
I had been planning on getting a Bluetooth transmitter from one of the other companies once I purchased a wireless headset. By this time Skull and Co. had launched their Audio Stick and again it was clear they took their time wisely figuring out the best way to incorporate their product to function well with the many options of cases and grips different people choose to use with their Switch/Switch Lite. It’s obviously designed to fit perfectly with their brand name grip cases for both Switch and Switch Lite by designing the transmitter to have a slightly extended male USB-C so the unit is flush against the case and the extended USB-C still fits all the way into the female port on the bottom of the Switch.
They also thought ahead about the limitations this would cause for those who don’t use a case at all or use others grips that aren’t full cases, leaving the bottom of the Switch open, like the Satisfye grip, which would result in about a 1mm gap between the Switch and the Audio Stick due to the extended USB-C design. To mitigate this they came up with the “plate design” where you are provided with a selection of plastic spacers individually designed for the Switch, Switch Lite, and a universal flat spacer plate to be used with other non-Switch products and they perfectly fill the gap.
It may sound like a hassle if you’re like me and don’t use a full grip case, because the other Bluetooth transmitter brands are designed to just fit as is and wouldn’t need an added spacer to worry about possibly losing. But because I respect the effort Skull & Co. puts into creating quality products I decided to deal with needing to use their device with the “Switch plate” installed. It turned out to be just perfect. The plate, once installed onto the Audio Stick is nice and snug and will not slide off accidentally, which was my main concern. The Skull & Co. Audio Stick fits on the Switch much more securely than any other brand would because the plate design has perfectly molded curves and includes the small bumps to fit into the two little holes on each side of the USB port as well as the rectangular notch on the back of the Switch. Unlike the other transmitters, any pressure placed on the Skull & Co. Audio Stick will not be putting stress on the metal USB piece and causing it to potentially break off inside your Switch. The plate’s added features for fitting the mold provides all the resistance you’d need if pressure was placed onto the device, so you’ll never have to worry about that either.
You’re also provided with a USB-C to USB-A adaptor with about a 4 inch cord so you can connect it to the dock without blocking the other USB port. They were also smart about their packaging... Knowing most consumers are not likely to be putting every spacer plate to use and Switch Lite owners won’t really have a need for the dock adaptor, they designed a little box that opens like a book and inside is a nice hard foam material with precise cut-outs for everything, the Audio Stick, the different spacers, and the dock adaptor, so everything can be kept organized in a nice durable package.
And in regards to the quality of the Audio-Stick itself, it works great! It has the ability to read and perform with the proper codecs for low latency devices that use features like aptX and has LED indicators to show which codec is being used. They state that this product was optimized for Apple Air Pods, which I don’t think are aptX, but only SBC. Regardless of the dreaded latency it seems everybody is mentioning when it comes to using Bluetooth audio while gaming, my inexpensive wireless earbuds cost a small fraction of the price of actual Air Pods, the codec LED indicator is showing SBC, and I have not been able to notice any latency at all. Everything works perfectly.
My only concern is regarding a full size wireless Bluetooth gaming headset I purchased from Turtle Beach. It is designed primarily for PS4 and PS5, but said that it works great with the Switch as well. It comes with it’s own proprietary USB-A dongle, and it does work great docked, and also portably, since I already had another adaptor that is the opposite of the Skull & Co. one, where it is male USB-C to female USB-A. I was really hoping the Skull & Co. Audio Stick would be able to recognize this headset but so far I’ve only been able to make it work with the dongle it came with. However, it’s not a big deal since I have everything I need to make both my wireless earbuds, and my Turtle Beach headset work well with the Switch, portably and docked. It would’ve just made it more convenient.
I have not yet tried connecting 2 sets of Bluetooth earbuds, or headsets to the Skull & Co. at once, but just like the other transmitters, the option is there. It has a built in microphone which I have also not tried using.
Overall, I think the Skull & Co. Audio Stick is the best of its kind out there. It’s basically the same price as the others, but provides a lot more in terms of features and functionality. It’s also nice and sleek, not bulky at all, and fits perfectly. Being all black with its small LED indicators and 2 buttons flush on the bottom makes it so you won’t get distracted while playing handheld.
If you have a decent set of earbuds or a headset that is not super low latency or aptX, and doesn’t require a proprietary dongle to work, I wouldn’t worry. As long as it’s Bluetooth 5.0 and basic SBC or better I’m sure you will be very happy with the results. I definitely am!
- Reviewed in the United States on February 3, 2024This was a fantastic buy to allow me to use my AirPod Pro 2 with my PS5.
Once paired( which took a few tries with my AirPods) it has worked flawlessly.
The AirPod Pro2 sound great with the dongle.
Just make sure before you use your AirPod Pro2 you have the sound set they way you like with you iPhone - whatever setting is on the iPhone will carry over to PS 5 with no easy way to change it.
It does say chat function will affect latency which I can’t confirm as I have not used the chat feature as I don’t play online multiplayer games.
These is a great option to use and BT IEM with the PS5.
Value is fantastic. I highly recommend it.
This will version not work with Xbox Series X just as an fyi.
- Reviewed in the United States on July 6, 2021First a bit of background, I’m around 4 months looking for a wireless headset solution for Switch, I ended getting so many gizmos to achieve my goal but no one worked the way I wanted. My first attempt was the Gulikit Air Pro+ tested it with Sennheiser 350BT, the results were horrible, the dongle fails to keep stable connection, it drops randomly, add to that annoying audio hiccups and the experience is awful.
My second attempt was using Artics 1 from SteelSeries, they are specifically advertised to work with Switch, and while it works with no lag and comes in all-in-one package the audio quality of the speaker itself was pretty poor, maybe I’m spoiled by Sennheiser audio :p
Finally came across the AudioStick from Skull’n Co, I said finally because truly it’s the only dongle that works, it was a long journey, but now I can enjoy the amazing audio quality from my PXC II with no lag, no connection drops, no hiccups, it detects the headset as aptX LL and pairs within minutes.
If you are an audiophile you own yourself the AudioStick, it just works perfect, has great build quality, flawless aptX LL compatibility.
- Reviewed in the United States on December 28, 2021This is the perfect PS5 accessory for connecting your AirPods Pro (or other AirPods) to the PS5. The sound comes through crisp and perfectly synced without any lag. I can even get spatial audio and a sense of depth using the AirPods Pro. Aesthetically, it looks good, but I wish it was gloss black to match the finish of the system.
Initial setup was a little wonky but I eventually figured it out with some help from YouTube videos. Subsequent connections work quickly and seamlessly. I absolutely recommend this product for a more immersive gaming experience.

Collegato a PS5 mi consente di utilizzare le airpods pro, si collegano immediatamente appena accendo la console e mantiene un’ottima stabilità di segnale audio. Bellissimo per uso con Playstation 5.

5.0 out of 5 stars Fantastic bit of kit
Before I ramble, just know I never do reviews but using this bit of kit I just had to post something.
I got it so I could have audio from my ps5 as opposed to a headset as I use a monitor without speakers.
I turned the speaker on, fired the ps5 up and as it hit the home menu the sound came through without any set up at all.
THIS is a middle finger up to Sony and I really couldn't be happier with it...
