AirFly SE | Bluetooth Wireless Audio Transmitter Adapter for AirPods/Headphones, 20+ Hr Battery, Works with 3.5mm aux Jacks on Airplanes, TVs, Gym Equipment, and Travel

I really love this thing. I got the Twelve South AirFly SE so I could use my AirPods with the airplane screen instead of dealing with those terrible wired headphones they hand out. It works with any 3.5mm aux jack, so I also use it at the gym and with my older TV at home. Super easy to use. No app, no complicated setup. You just turn it on, press the button, and it connects to your headphones in seconds. I was honestly surprised how simple it was. The connection stays stable the entire flight — no cutting out, no dropouts, just solid audio the whole time. Sound comes through clear with no noticeable delay, which was my biggest concern before buying it. Battery life is crazy good. I get over 20 hours on a single charge, so I never worry about it dying mid-flight. It charges with USB-C and you can even use it while it is charging. The little volume buttons on the side are nice too for quick adjustments. The build feels solid, durable, and stable. It plugs into the aux jack snugly and does not wiggle or come loose, even when I bump into the seat in front of me. I have been tossing it around in my travel bag for months and it still works perfectly. It is tiny, barely bigger than a USB stick, and comes with a little pouch so it is easy to keep track of. For the price, this is great value. I use it way more than I expected — flights, gym, TV, older audio stuff. It just works. Easy recommendation.

Have used this a couple times now and it works great. There is a slight amount of delay but not super noticeable while watching movies or videos. Perfect solution for airline entertainment systems which do not have Bluetooth capability yet. Once paired with your wireless earbuds or headphones you simply have to plug in this dongle into the standard 3mm phone jack and turn it on. Sound will transmit via Bluetooth to your ear buds or headphones. You do not need to repair each time you use it. Quality of the sound is good. Probably not audiophile quality but the noise on an airplane prevents high quality listening anyways. Small form factor makes it easy to pack with your other electronics. Initially I had a little trouble pairing the first time but once done I did not have to re pair again. I have two sets of ear buds paired and the unit automatically connects to the one I pull out.

This product is perfect for travel. Pairing it with my AirPods Pro was ridiculously simple, turn it on, press the button, and it connects without any fuss, and the audio stays clear with no noticeable delay, even when watching movies on in-flight screens. The battery life is honestly the best part; it really does last over 20 hours, and I’ve gone through multiple flights and workouts before needing to recharge. It’s lightweight, easy to throw into a travel pouch, and feels sturdier than I expected for its size. The only thing I wish it had was dual-headphone pairing like the higher-end model, but for the price, the reliability and sound quality make it absolutely worth it. If you use wireless headphones and travel even occasionally, this little device makes the whole experience a lot better.

My computer bluetooth was no longer working, so I needed a bluetooth to audio connection adapter so I can continue to listen to music while working. This was one of the first products to show up, and seeing the reviews, it seemed like it works great, so I decided to order this and try using it. I do not regret it! First off it was easy to connect the first time to my earphones and plug into my computer. Easy to put away, especially because of its small size and little bag included. The sound is also great compared to my earphones originally with no static at all. Also to those wondering, it connects not only to Apple products but also any other earphones or headphones. I couple things to watch out for though, is that first off the sound would sometimes cut off and you would have to restart the AirFly device to reconnect the sound. Usually it disconnects on average (For me) about every 30 - 60 minutes when using for prolonged time. Also, sometimes the sound would start going a bit bad, and usually to fix it, I would have to restart my earphones to fix it. Although after using it for more times, the problem becomes less of a problem and occurs less often. Overall 4 stars for its usefulness, but also for its time-to-time problems.

I purchased this product to play my ancient Microsoft Zune in my new Mazda as no other connection is possible through the audio system now that the 3.5mm audio jack is no longer available. It worked perfectly. I just set up the bluetooth connection which my car recognized immediately and plugged in the 3.5 mm jack into the headphone jack of the Zune and voila, clear audio as good as having it hard wired. Fidelity is great. I may have to purchase a second one in case this unit ever fails, just so I have a spare.

Used it for the first time and it works flawlessly. The compact size and ease of connecting to my headphones was seamless. Would recommend

This Bluetooth transmitter works OK. It gets easily paired with my wireless headphones. The sound quality though is plain, no bass; I am not even sure if the sound is stereo. My major issue, however, is not a sound but a battery. I bought the device about 20 months ago and used it occasionally, not every day. Unfortunately, I recently noticed that it is not getting charged anymore. Device’s manual is advising to double click on “+” (volume up) button to inquire the battery status and check the indicator. It only works when the transmitter is still connected to the USB charger and it always blinks 4 times (fully charged, lol). I can still use the device when it is connected to the charger. But understandably it is not the way it is supposed to be used onboard of the airplane. As usually, return window is closed and additional warranty was not purchased. This must be a lesson for me.

I bought this August 13, 2025 and it just totally died April 26, 2026. I had to reset the device once or twice when it had connection issues, but that’s no big deal. When it failed this time, it started making ringing noises. I kept it charged but now it has completely stopped working. No response after charging it again, the volume button, which you use to tell how much charge is left, is not functioning. So I bought a new one. I really like this device but wish it had a longer life span. I use it with my AirPod Pro 3.

Den här ger mig möjligheten att koppla mina brusreducerande hörlurar till undrhållningssystemen på flyg. Funkar utan några som helst problem.

Due to the delay added in the audio path the video and audio get out of sync. This makes it very annoying to watch any movies in flight.

quick set up, works great

Works with my Apple air pods pro. Connected easily but dropped out a few times over a 5 hr flt. Had to power off and back on to reconnect. Happy thus far.

Used it recently on 2 long haul flights, there is some time a glitch that the sound does not come through but a quick restart of device fixes it. I found this to be very convenient to use and it does not compromise the sound quality
