I've been relying on this inexpensive BT 2.0 USB adapter for a long time, and I believe it's time to consider an upgrade. My headphones (JBL Endurance Run BT, BT 4.1) often disconnect unexpectedly, requiring constant reconnection. On my phone (Mi 9 lite, BT 5.0), this problem never occurs, and battery performance is significantly better. I recently discovered an Intel WiFi 6 AX200 for €20, which includes BT 5.2. Would this resolve the issues? If not, how noticeable would the improvements be? Also, I assume it would work with my ASRock B460M Pro4 (it has a WiFi M2 slot), though I'm not too concerned about the upgrade since I already use Ethernet. The cards without WiFi are rare and don't offer much savings.

Thanks! The Bluetooth version was a bit confusing, but they mentioned 5.0. Other sites said 5.1 and Intel stated 5.2. Either way, it seems like a better option than what I have now.
