Reviews around price (4.53 of 5)

  • Good price, good functionality, easy to set up, and easy to use
  • This one seemed to provide a good mix of quality and good price
  • Great price and this turns your car into bluetooth as long as you have an AV jack
  • Coupled with the aggressive price makes these not that big of an issue but just watchouts
  • Fortunately another user recommended this so when my wife was disappointed because of the static I promptly purchased the "Pac SNI

Reviews around advertise (4.37 of 5)

  • You'd think the button would just start voice activation and shut off the phone at the end of a call, but on my Note Edge, if you press the button, Google starts playing music which is annoying as then you have to figure out how to shut it off.
  • Works as advertised for a while but after less than a year it just stopped working.
  • The music quality is just as good as if I had plugged in my phone with an aux cord.
  • Fortunately another user recommended this so when my wife was disappointed because of the static I promptly purchased the "Pac SNI
  • The receiver will pick it up and directed to the car leaving you mystified as to why you are not able to hear the phone call

Reviews around device (3.96 of 5)

  • but I suspect it is the phone BT issue and not the device.

Reviews around music (3.89 of 5)

  • People can hear me very well, and my music sounds great
  • Music sounds good and phone calls work as well as expected
  • All my music sounds great and after I turned up the volume on my phone, calls are crystal clear 90% of the time

Reviews around wire (2.24 of 5)

  • This device is hard-wired to the cigarette lighter directly, and the adapter provided on this product is only
  • Simple install and works great with iPhone 5S. Used this to add wire-free pairing to my iPhone for playing music through an older car stereo system that had an aux port available to plug this device into.
  • Great product for what itsmeant for, as long as the wires don't mess up.
  • i dont understand with a good wire hooked to my phone could barely hear tunes but with this bluetooth hooked to same aux port the songs rock and hands free calls are perfect and remember saab owners cig lighter or power source wont work unless car is running leave connected all the time soon as yo start car it pairs after first pair and jusp put your phone on a magic mount highly recomend especially too saab owners with aux problems!!!!

Reviews around cord (1.95 of 5)

  • Amazingly easy to set up, and comes with enough cord to handle most situations
  • Occasionally I hear feedback and have to twist the cord in the aux jack but after a quick adjustment it is fine
  • My only complaint is that the cord is somewhat messy and almost unsightly
  • The sound is so much clearer using this device than it was using a cheap cord.
  • All his is a a glorified messy cheap aux cord you can connect to a Bluetooth device without having to plug it in

Reviews around noise (1.51 of 5)

  • Some people have complained about ground loop hum or noise
  • I purchased the Mpow ground loop noise isolator and wow!!
  • Decent noise cancellation, but won't fix a car's inherent wind or rain volume much.
  • Before the isolator, it was un-usable, WAY too much noise and static.
  • You will want to get a ground loop isolator for this to eliminate the whining noise.
