Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)I got this transmitter with remote for my new iPhone 3G because I thought it would simplify things in the car and allow me to shuffle thru iTunes with the remote instead of on the phone itself. Something that can hold the phone, charge it, transmit to the radio and is remote controlled- sounds great right? In reality, it did not turn out to be so wonderful.
The adjustable sides of the holder do not lock in place, and thus, it does not hold your phone securely. In addition, the charger is very awkwardly positioned so that it blocks your cup holders if you have a dash version. The converter would not stay in the charger around corners or over bumps, making things even less secure for your expensive phone. The remote control appeared in the pictures to be able to shuffle through your iTunes. This turned out to be a sticker- not actual controls. You are able to change the radio station for transmission and mute the sound with the remote control, as well as turn the power of the transmitter off and on- but if you are looking for it to be able to actually do what it looks like it should do (ie: shuffle thru your music) you will be sadly disappointed. The remote looks and feels like it came out of a cracker jack box. In addition, if you are not pointing the remote in a very specific direction, very close to the transmitter, it does not work at all.
The only positive thing I can say for this product is that the FM transmitter does transmit fairly decently. It may work for someone who has a iPod nano, but it is not secure for a iPhone or anything larger than a nano. Save your money and get something else. I wound up getting a separate dash/windshield universal mount and a small fm transmitter that has a USB port for your USB charger and will work with any device that has a headphone jack. Works much better. My phone is now up where I can see it if I need to use my GPS and place it on speaker phone if I have a call come in.
