Pros & Cons
Pros
Hello hello is the only easily available wifi card on the market with bt 4. It works much better than the tp-link usb wireless adapter it replaced. Great wifi signal and speed; even on 5 ghz three rooms away. The magnet on wifi antenna is nice as well... Read More
Easy to install on an asus sabertooth z77 motherboard. Purchased to install into a dell optiplex small form factor (sff) other than that, easy install and setup. Great to upgrade from 2.
Great component. Great replacement. Fun fact. Worth every cent. Great card and good deal from warehouse.
This card is great - uses pci-e for wifi power/data and uses the 5-pin cable for power/ data for the bluetooth. I have a gigabyte z370 gaming now which has neither wifi or bluetooth so this card takes care of both.
Bluetooth is stronger and i am free of syncing and pairing issues. The bluetooth is a plus, don't need any other dongle. Also excellent in sharing files by bluetooth.
Cons
Do not buy for bluetooth. Tried disabling it in windows then re-enabling it.
Highlights
Quality
Easy installation, setup was a breeze and fast speeds too!
This is great, good signal, easy to install.

Price

Shipping
Signal / network responded quickly and in "best possible" sending / receivingmode.
Packaging/appearance
This couldn't be that old so giving them the benefit of the doubt that they aren't packaging new devices with very old drivers.
Competitiveness
So much better than pci-e wifi dualband ac1200 archer t4e.
Have not tried other brands but this one is working as expected.

Antenna is magnetic cable for antenna could be longer
Posted by a reviewer on Amazon
As for the wifi it does claim higher speeds than what you get i think this might be dependent on modemrouter location and antenna location
