Creative BT-W3 is a portable Bluetooth audio transmitter equipped with Bluetooth version 5.0 and advanced audio codecs like aptX™ LL and aptX™ HD. With a simple plug-and-play functionality, you can easily enjoy high-quality Bluetooth audio with your PlayStation and Nintendo Switch, or upgrade your Bluetooth experience on PC and Mac with more stable connection and better voice calls.

Convenience

Easy Codec Selection

Creative BT-W3 supports 4 different Bluetooth codecs-aptX LL, aptX HD, aptX, and SBC. Each of the codec has its own strengths and is suitable for different use cases: aptX LL is essential for a lag-free gaming experience, while aptX HD is ideal for music enjoyment. With the indicator light and codec selection button, you can easily tell which codec you're using and switch to the suitable codec for your usage effortlessly.

Creative BT-W3 works with Bluetooth headphones or speakers, and the codecs available to you are dependent on what your headphones and speakers support-i.e. you need a pair of headphones that support aptX LL to use it with Creative BT-W3! If you're unsure of the codecs supported by your Bluetooth devices, you either check its manufacturer website, or check our FAQ section below.

As long as your Bluetooth device support the corresponding codec, Creative BT-W3 will default to aptX LL first, with aptX HD next in priority, then aptX, and finally SBC.

Audio

Never Miss A Beat with Aptx Low Latency

Latency is a common problem with Bluetooth headphones due to the time required to decode audio. As a result, you may get out-of-sync audio while playing games or watching movies. With aptX Low Latency, you can say goodbye to that annoying lag! This audio codec is engineered to reduce latency to 30-40 milliseconds, which is practically indiscernible by humans. That is 4-6 times shorter than the amount of latency you get with the default SBC codec! Connect your aptX LL compatible headphones to Creative BT-W3 to enjoy seamless transmissions and real-time audio synchronization, without any sacrifice in audio quality!

Connectivity

Plug and Play

Designed with convenience as the main goal, the setup for Creative BT-W3 can't be any easier. Here's how to do it:

And you're done. In fact, you can skip step 2 the next time you want to use Creative BT-W3 with the same pair of headphones.

For devices with USB-A port, we've bundled a USB Type C-to-A converter to use with Creative BT-W3. Simply connect Creative BT-W3 to the converter first before plugging it into your device, and that's it. Then, you can follow the simple 3-step process above and you're done. Easy, huh.

No Batteries Needed

Creative BT-W3 is powered by USB-C and draws minimal power from the connected device. As long as it's plugged in, it'll always be switched on.

The Creative BT-W3 is also completely battery-free so you don't have to worry about charging yet another device!

Communicate Wirelessly with Your Teammates

Share your strategy or call for urgent back-up from your teammates when playing multiplayer games! Clear communication is key to winning the game, that's why we bundled a detachable microphone for you to use with your PS4 controller!

Simply plug the microphone into the 3.5 mm jack on your controller to communicate freely and lead your team to victory. Alternatively, you can also go into HFP mode by double pressing the button on your Creative BT-W3, and use the built-in mic on your headset for a quick call or for your online meetings.

For Nintendo Switch users, to use the analog microphone for in-game voice chat, simply download a firmware to enable the function. Do note that enabling the analog mic for Nintendo Switch will turn off the HFP mode on your Creative BT-W3.
