QCC Dongle Pro2: An Upgrade Across the Experience

QCC Dongle Pro2 is not positioned as a “more expensive QCC Dongle Pro,” but as a comprehensive upgrade within the existing pricing structure.

Compared with the previous-generation QCC Dongle Pro, it retains the same familiar operation and form factor while taking a further step toward the next generation of Bluetooth audio. It evolves from an LDAC / aptX high-definition transmitter into a flagship wireless audio dongle built for the future.


A High-Definition Audio Upgrade for iPhone Users

The iPhone’s native Bluetooth supports only AAC and SBC codecs and cannot transmit high-definition Bluetooth formats such as LDAC, aptX, or LHDC. Even when paired with premium wireless headphones that support these codecs, it cannot fully realize their sound quality potential.

QCC Dongle Pro2 brings professional-grade, high-definition Bluetooth output to iPhone, iPad, and Mac. With support for high-quality wireless audio codecs including LDAC, aptX, and LHDC, it unlocks the full performance of your headphones. Apple MFi certification also provides reliable assurance in system compatibility, power management, and compatibility with future iOS updates, helping ensure stable, long-term use.

Actual sound quality depends on whether the receiving headphones support the corresponding codec.


Unlock the Full Potential of Premium LDAC Headphones

Even with premium headphones that support LDAC, users are often unable to transmit high-bitrate audio reliably because of the Bluetooth limitations of their phones, computers, or game consoles. This prevents their headphones from delivering their full performance.

QCC Dongle Pro2 supports high-quality LDAC audio transmission, delivering stable, high-bitrate wireless audio that brings out the resolution and fine detail of premium headphones from Sony and other brands, bringing wireless sound closer to a lossless listening experience.

LDAC’s high-bitrate mode also depends on the receiving headphones’ capabilities and the stability of the wireless environment.


Better Bluetooth Sound and Stability for Computers

Most computers, particularly Windows PCs and some Macs, have limitations in Bluetooth specifications, native codec support, and connection stability that affect wireless headphone sound quality and usability.

With plug-and-play operation, QCC Dongle Pro2 provides professional-grade wireless audio output for computers. It supports high-quality Bluetooth codecs including LDAC, aptX, aptX HD, and aptX Adaptive, with actual support depending on the combination of devices used. Without requiring additional drivers, it significantly improves sound quality, connection stability, and latency performance, making higher-quality wireless audio easy to enjoy on your computer.


Low-Latency Gaming on Switch and PS5

For PS5, Switch, and handheld gaming users, a good wireless gaming experience depends on more than Bluetooth availability. Audio latency, connection stability, and device compatibility directly affect audio-video synchronization and gameplay.

QCC Dongle Pro2 supports low-latency codec technologies such as aptX Adaptive. When paired with compatible headphones, it effectively reduces latency and improves connection stability, bringing the wireless gaming experience closer to that of wired headphones.

It also supports LE Audio’s low-latency capabilities and high-definition voice uplink. With compatible devices, these features further improve wireless transmission efficiency and voice communication, preparing it for the next generation of gaming audio.

aptX Adaptive: latency as low as 48 ms
LE Audio: latency as low as 20 ms when the receiving device supports LE Audio low-latency mode

Note: Achieving the stated aptX Adaptive low latency requires headphones built on the latest Qualcomm® Gen 2 Sound Platforms that support the aptX Adaptive codec. LE Audio ultra-low latency likewise requires the receiving headphones to support LE Audio low-latency mode. Standard Bluetooth headphones cannot achieve these latency levels.


Bring Wireless Freedom to Wired Hi-Fi

For users with premium wired Hi-Fi headphones or desktop Hi-Fi systems, traditional wired equipment delivers excellent sound quality, but cable connections limit flexibility in how and where it can be used.

QCC Dongle Pro2 can be paired with devices such as M18i Max to transmit high-quality audio wirelessly to a Hi-Fi system. It adds wireless capability to a wired setup while preserving sound quality, giving you greater freedom to enjoy high-quality listening.
