Hey just looking for some feedback around Airfly SE vs other cheaper alternatives.

 

Looking to purchase one to use for an international trip. (don't really travel much so not sure if it's worth splashing out on the Pro)

 

Any feedback on these? Or are there cheaper alternatives from Aliexpress/Amazon etc that do the job?

 

It would be used with Airpods Pro 2nd Gen (some reviews i've read mention issues specifically when used with the 2nd gen pro's)

 

Thanks in advance

So basically that's an audio->bluetooth converter?

 

 

 

If you search on AliExpress for "airfly bluetooth adapter" you'll find hundreds starting at about $5  https://www.aliexpress.com/item/Essager-Bluetooth-Aux-Adapter-Dongle-USB-To-3-5mm-Jack-Car-Audio-Aux-Bluetooth-5-0/1005003314052937.html . I guess the key issue is how you're going to power the thing. Presumably the real Airfly has a moderately large battery to last for several hours. But you should be able to power a cheap small-battery copy from the USB socket in the plane.

 

Can't comment on Apple Airpod issues.
