Product Description

Featuring a sleek new design with a user-friendly interface, BT provides a live full duplex communication solution using technology through FM transmission to your FM car radio and allows you to speak to callers through an external DSP microphone. BT is pairable with any phone equipped with functionality or a connection to a adaptor. A2DP technology enables wireless transmission of music from your cell phone. If an incoming or outgoing call is made, the music will be paused. The transmission of music will resume automatically when the call is ended. BT also lets you listen to sound files such as MP3 & WMA file stored in portable memory devices like USB flash memory & SD , etc through your car radio speakers. It supports RDS (Radio Data System), so when you receive a phone call, caller id will be displayed on your car stereo, or while listening to music, you can see the song and artist's name displayed on your car stereo. SD transmits to all FM frequencies (88.1MHz-107.9MHz) and memorizes up to 7 FM frequencies. It is equipped with a fully functional remote control. You can answer/end calls, change volume, change frequency, folder shift, fast Forward & Rewind, Repeat or Bookmark your favorite songs through the remote. Note: does not support A2DP profile, so playing music through can only be accomplished via the provided 3.5mm audio cable.

Just received my shipment and couldn't be happier with this device. Setup was a breeze and clarity of the FM transmission is excellent.
Great Product!

Reviewer: burton78,
The BT is everything it said it would be! It works great! I've used it in a couple different cars, for city driving, and also on a couple different road trips from Central IL to St Louis, MO. Sound quality is great! I use it with my 3GS and it works wonderfully, for both stereo music from my or Pandora radio app. Phone calls are great as well, the included mic works well, and no one has complained about the call quality while on the phone, and they sound great on the through the car stereo. I had plenty of wire to run the cable for the mic from the device to my sun visor in my pontiac torrent. The included remote does come in handy for me, since in my torrent the nearest cigarette lighter is down below, sort of out of arms reach while trying to drive. So I'm able to use the remote to make adjustments, and use other functions of the safely while driving and not have to lean over. If you are looking for a hands free calling device, and for stereo audio, then I highly recommend this as your solution! Great product!
Awesome

This took about 2 min to set up. Find a nice blank radio station and you cannot tell the difference between this product and a direct line into your stereo. Works exactly like i wanted it to. The USB plug allows for charging so you can play music the whole trip on long car rides. Fantastic!
Great product...here's my first impression

Wow...how easy can it get? I took it out of the box, searched for the pairing code (which is 0000) and plugged it in. Instantly, it was working playing Josh Turner on my FM radio. Plus, even though the description (somewhere...not sure if it was this one on Amazon or not) said it will transmit from 88.1 and up, the device actually transmits from 87.6 up. So, 87.9, the lowest my Toyota Sequoia will go, is GREAT!

Sitting still you can hear a little hiss, but going down the road this is easily drowned out by the road noise. I am VERY excited about this because we also have an iPad and now ALL the kids can hear the movie at the same time and I don't have to deal with cables, wires, or anything else.

Great product. I'll add more to my review as I get more experience with it.

I did notice one thing...you have to have the mic plugged in to make a phone call. I tried calling my wife and she couldn't hear me. I could hear her through the speakers great. I was a little disappointed in this because I really wanted NO wires at all, but I also know how fickle those little mics can be when they are 3 feet away and picking up background noise. So I'm sure this is the best alternative. Will probably only install the mic in my truck and just use it as an audio in the Sequoia. That is until my wife decides she wants her own...!
Awesome

This thing is awesome and as advertised, and I gave it 5 stars because it is awesome. There are just a few things I wish I knew before I bought it.

1. The documentation that comes with it is not good, so I had to figure this out by trial and error, hence posting it here.

2. The USB port is for charging only, you can not put music on a USB and play it with this, SD only.

3. When the cable is plugged into the audio in jack the SD does not play, and there is no button you can press to switch it to the SD . Not a big deal, just unplug the cord, I was just confused for a while.

4. There are only 2 options for the connection to your phone, automatically connecting when you turn the car on, and connecting using the phone after the car is on. I wish there were an option for pressing a button on the device to connect to the phone on the fly.

5. It does not automatically remember where you left of in a song when you turn the car off, you have to press the bookmark button if you want that to happen. It does remember what song you left off on, this is only a minor annoyance.

All that being said, this is one of the best FM transmitters I have ever owned, I have used to for my thought the 2.5mm jack and the SD , and I have used the feature, the sound quality is excellent, even Bass comes through well, and I have been told the voice quality with the microphone mounted to the visor in my car is excellent as well. The excellence in what it is supposed to do far outweigh the minor grievances I had, especially for the price.
Works with my 3GS

This is the first time I have gotten one of these and had it actually do what its supposed to. So Im happy with my purchase. I dont know about the hands free calling stuff it does because I dont use any of that. I only use it for listening to music since I have no CD in my truck.
I wanted to Like it BUT..

This is a good BT hands free for users who wants to use it occasionally.I tried this product for around two weeks.I liked it but due to following factors,got to return it.

Pros:
* Small enough to slide any where in your car.
* Automatically ON/OFF is a great feature.
* Strong FM .It also depends on where you antenna is.Mine is in front so the sound quality is above my expectation.No static and Hiss sound.
* Many features,like usb charging,SD play,BT Play,external Mic etc.

Cons:
* The main reason for returning this unit is due to its reliability.Once call come in and you driving.Some times the unit hangs.And in my idea it is very distracting while driving.I observed that all my attention is deviated to the call and this unit.And i try to fix it while driving which is not safe.Many other times it just hangs and i need to restart.
* The Call quality is also OK,but not great .Some people find my voice OK,but others says they don't understand me.
* Remote is little complicated as there are hell lot of buttons.But i guess once used to ,one can drive the remote easily.

I returned this unit mainly because of its non reliability.If some one wants this for FM and occasional then i say this is an excellent product.But for daily use as BT it fails.
I purchased T505 and it is excellent when compared to this .Every thing compares equal except the hang ups.

good idea, technology week

Reviewer: bcd,
Ultimately you are still hindered by how strong the FM transmission is. In my car, unfortunately there was not enough power to get a clear sound and too much static was produced.

Excellent idea however.

This baby really works! For music through car speakers and as a handsfree device. This is my fifth purchase trying over the last two years to find something that works as well as this does with my . Sound quality is superior and no static!
Does everything, but not very well.
 
Review Date: July 12, 2010
Reviewer: KerryC in VA., VA.
I was excited to find a device that would provide hands-free calling, FM transmission and music in a relatively inexpensive device. I have used a DLO FM in my car for about three years and have been happy with it. I found the FM transmission noisier than my DLO and the hands-free ranged from fair to unusable. Most callers said it sounded like I was calling from inside a steel can and frequently asked me to repeat myself. I played around with the microphone placement, but the results were about the same. As another reviewer stated, the hands-free device should allow you to concentrate on your driving but I found myself switching to my headset or picking up the phone. The battery for the remote was DOA. The features of this unit are excellent but the execution is lacking.

I RMA'd mine and was pleasantly surprised to find the initial shipping charge was also refunded. Thanks Amazon and Satechi.
