Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Is it compatible with new iPhone, new iPad, Android Phones/Tablets?

A: The USB-C to USB Adapter is designed for better compatibility with USB-C devices, including new iPhone, iPad, Android phones, and tablets. However, these devices may limit the power output to protect their USB-C port, which could result in lower speaker volume or automatic pauses in playback.

Q: Is it compatible with TV/TV-Box/Projector/Xbox/PlayStation?

A: No. The USB speaker is primarily designed for computers. USB ports on other devices may not provide sufficient power to drive the speaker, leading to a lower maximum volume level.

Q: Is it okay if I connect it to a USB hub?

A: Connecting to a USB hub is not recommended as it may not provide enough power to drive the speaker. This can result in audio issues such as distortion, cluttered sound, or constant audio cut-outs at high volumes. It is best to connect the speaker directly to a USB port on the back panel of your computer host.

Q: Why does the connection fail after pairing?

A: Please ensure your computer's audio driver is up to date and that the USB interface of your computer is functioning correctly.

Q: Is there a mic built-in?
