Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)I purchased this product with the intent of playing music wirelessly from my iPhone through my car stereo. If this is your intention, this product is amazing. The sound quality is pretty good, and it is a breeze to use. Once you have paired your phone for the first time with the device there is no input required ever again. All I do is start my car, and push play on the remote, and whatever was playing on my iPhone is now playing through my stereo speakers. I have never had the device not pair, it works perfectly.
That being said, if you are planning to use this device in your car for handsfree calls, forget it. The microphone is built into the unit, so it is always positioned in your lighter outlet. For me, this is located in my center console by my shifter about 2-3 feet from my mouth. This translates to poor call quality for the person on the other end. I have never completed an entire phone conversation using this device. Not only does the person on the other end sound quiet, but to them I sound like a mess of static, especially when the car is running. I can't imagine what this would be like if my lighter outlet was in my armrest box like I know a lot of cars have.
Overal, I am happy with this product because I did not really plan to use it for handsfree calling. If this is not your situation, I strongly recommend that you pursue another solution. That being said, $25 is tough to beat considering higher end (actually functioning) solutions can cost in the hundreds of dollars range.
Note: If you are planning to use this product with an iPhone be warned that the Previous and Next buttons do not work on the included remote. I think this is Apple not supporting the full A2DP protocol, but I am not sure. I have learned to deal with this, it doesn't really bother me too much.
