The AULA A700 ships a USB-C adapter for its USB receiver, so 2.4GHz works on a laptop with only USB-C ports. Bluetooth and a wired mode cover other devices, and the headset charges over USB-C as well, so one connector type does most of the work on a thin modern laptop.
Thin laptops have been shedding their rectangular USB ports for years, and a wireless headset with a full-size receiver can leave you hunting through a drawer for a converter. The AULA A700 settles that before you open the manual: its 2.4GHz receiver ships with a small adapter, so the AULA A700 USB-C adapter lets the dongle sit in a USB-C socket on a machine that offers nothing else.
Yes, the A700 runs over 2.4GHz on a laptop with only USB-C ports. AULA packs a USB-C adapter with the headset's USB receiver: the receiver goes into the adapter, and the adapter goes into the laptop. Bluetooth and a wired connection cover other situations, and the headset charges over USB-C too. The A700 costs R569 at Evetech.
Many ultrabooks and newer slim machines come with two or three USB-C ports and no USB-A at all. A standard receiver will not fit those without help, and a loose converter bought separately is exactly the kind of part that vanishes in a laptop bag. Because AULA includes one, the A700's receiver mode works on that kind of laptop from the day you unpack it.
The receiver route is worth keeping because a 2.4GHz dongle gives the headset its own dedicated link. It is not sharing the laptop's Bluetooth radio with a mouse, a phone and a smartwatch, which is why most gamers default to the dongle at a desk. AULA's manual rates the A700's wireless range at over 10m in open space, comfortably enough for a desk or a small room.
Leave the receiver seated in its adapter and store them together. If you later move to a desktop with USB-A ports, pull the receiver out for that machine; until then the joined piece lives in one port and one pocket, and nothing small goes missing.
The A700 is tri-mode. Over 2.4GHz it uses the receiver and adapter above. Bluetooth needs no receiver at all, which suits a phone or tablet, and the wired mode takes a cable for sessions where you would prefer to skip wireless altogether.
On a USB-C-only laptop, the choice usually comes down to what else is occupying the ports:
The charging port is USB-C as well, rated at 5V 800mA, so the lead that feeds your laptop accessories can also top up the headset. AULA says the A700 stays usable while it charges, which turns a flat battery mid-session into a cable job rather than a break. Between charges, AULA rates the 1500mAh cell at over 40 hours.
That keeps a slim-laptop setup tidy: USB-C for the receiver, USB-C for power, Bluetooth for everything else. One connector type does most of the work, and the laptop keeps a port free more often than you might expect.
Past the connections, the A700 is an over-ear headset with 50mm dynamic drivers, a detachable noise-cancelling mic muted by a slide switch on the cup, and RGB lighting on the ear cups. It comes in black and grey, and AULA's manual lists it at about 297g.
Line it up against other models in Evetech's gaming headsets category, or filter down to receiver and Bluetooth designs on the wireless headset page. Bought from Evetech, it comes with a 1 Year Local Warranty, so a hardware fault gets sorted here.
No. It comes with the A700's USB receiver, so a USB-C-only laptop can use the 2.4GHz mode straight away.
No. Phones and tablets pair over Bluetooth, which leaves the receiver and adapter free for the laptop.
A hub with a USB-A port can hold the receiver without the adapter. Plugging straight into the laptop keeps one less link between the headset and the machine.
AULA's manual gives over 10m in open space. Walls and furniture between you and the receiver will shorten that.
A USB-C port at 5V 800mA, and you can keep listening while it charges.
