    I got it to listen to music from my phone. Mainly Spotify. Connection with amplifier, you can hear the difference, better quality, and fuller sound compared to wireless connection with bluetooth.

    Positive:
    Easy connection, recognized immediately by both Android and PC.
    Good and clear sound, doesn't distort even at high volumes.
    Relatively good volume for headphones with high sensitivity at low amperes.
    Extra connection for power supply.
    LEDs for power notification, frequency selection, and EQ.
    Supports headphones with microphone.
    Price (if below 12 euros).

    Negative:
    Playback interrupts if power supply is connected or disconnected.
    Does not have the power to drive low-sensitivity professional headphones.
    High latency on both Android and PC.
    Missing the inverted V from the EQ for emphasis on vocals.
    Price (if above 12 euros).

    Update March 24th:
    Three more positives:
    Immediately recognized by iPad Pro M1, almost zero latency.
    Has a long USB connector and doesn't require removing the case.
    Durable, withstood a lot of abuse and still works.
    And one negative:
    Recently saw it at a price close to 40 euros, triple the normal price.

    Unacceptable packaging, hastily placed inside an envelope without any protection. The envelope was clearly crushed.

    It does indeed provide much better sound output on headphones compared to the integrated DAC of most mobile phones. The difference can be heard when playing high-quality audio files or streaming. Please note that it is compatible with mobile phones with Snapdragon processors, but it does not work on mobile phones with MediaTek processors that I have tested.

    After testing, it also works on MediaTek processors, depending on the phone. Look for OTG device settings in the phone's settings. Some phones require activation of this feature

    I use it on my mobile phone as it does not have a 3.5mm Jack port for music playback through headphones or via the aux port in the car, etc. You can listen to music and charge your phone at the same time, which is very useful for those of us who have phones with type C connection for charging and headphones. The most important thing is the increase in playback volume, which has doubled, and now I can really take advantage of my headphones or the car's sound system, which was previously prohibitive for music calls or anything else as you couldn't hear well at all. I recommend it with closed eyes, it's worth every euro.
