Less is more. A lot more. I purchased this Bluetooth adapter for use in my car. This is the third, and best, adapter purchased for this use. This adapter connects my iPhone 14 Pro to my automobile's AUX input.1. Audio Quality. As my previous adapter was BT 5.2, I expected the same audio quality. After testing I can say there is a discernable improvement in sound. Music streamed from Spotify over 3G through this adapter's Bluetooth connection to my car's audio system seems to have a wider dynamic range, particulary in the low frequencies. This was an unexpected but welcome inmprovement over my previous adapter.2. Control. This adapter does not have a battery and relies solely on external (USB Type-A connection) power. This is actaully a huge plus for me. With my previous integrated battery adapter, turning off the car would not automatically pause the music or podcast. Occasionally I would return to the car only to find the iPhone had remained connected and playing through 1 or 2 additinoal poscasts. This adapter also reconnects when power is resored (the car ignition is turned on.) Perfect.3. Size. This thing is small but mighty. In my application, it sits in the compartment below the arm rest. My previous adapter was a mess of power and audio cables. This adapter eliminates the power cable by integrating everything into the USB Type-A connector and a coil wire for 3.5mm (AUX) audio. My AUX input is directly next to the 12v power, so the shorter the cable the better.4. Setup. Could not have been easier to set up. I plugged it in to power, went to the Bluetooth settings on my phone and it popped right into the "Other Devices" list. It paired on the very first attempt.5. Calls. Did not test as my car's Bluetooth is capable of handling calls on its own. Only tested for audio like streaming music and podcasts.6. Conclusion. This is my third adapter in this exact scenario. It is by far the best. If your use case is similar to mine, I would highly recommend this device over most others.

This Bluetooth-to-AuxIn receiver performs flawlessly. The connection to my phone takes place when the ignition is turned on, even when my phone's BT is off and needs to be activated. Good sound quality and volume. No complaints at all, so I highly recommend it.

I have struggled with many products in the past, trying to fit and work around my cars aux and power outlet. This is what i have been looking for and it works every time. Perfect price and the sound is brilliant, now I have music in my car!

So I just received this product today and wanted to help some of you out who are looking at the $11 price of this and wondering, "what could possibly go wrong?". I'll mention this: not all cars will work with this thing due to noise isolation on the cable. I tried plugging it into someone else's car before my own and it made a weird tick tick noise, super annoying. However, plugging it into my car and my power adapter, only a light hiss when nothing is playing. Once the music or podcast is on, the hissing goes away. Sound quality, from my short use so far, is really really good for the money. Kinda blew me away tbh. Anyways, I'd check if the power adapter is to blame for the tick tick or any bad hiss noise before discarding it completely. You do have 30 days. Overall, solid product given its from China.

Väldigt liten och smidig, passar perfekt i äldre bil som saknar egen bluetooth men har aux ingång.

Great audio quality, easy pairing, and no hum in a house that seems to have audio ground loops.The problem is that this is made for intermittent use and power cycles, such as in a vehicle. Due to a flaw in the firmware, when the unit should go to standby, it instead enters a weird state where you can see it, but not connect to it. Power cycling the unit lets you pair immediately and play audio.There is no need for this weird standby bug, and so I returned it. Which makes me sad because I wanted to like this so much and get like 5 of them.Would probably work fine for automotive use where the USB ports is switched based on the ignition though.

Plus de connectique jack sur mon nouveau téléphone. Pas de bluetooth pour le streaming audio dans la voiture. Le volume avec une prise jack téléphone et prise auxiliaire était toujours autour de 20/23, avec ce récepteur bluetooth je suis avec un volume à 16 et la qualité est bonne la puissance est du coup aussi au rdv. J'avais aussi eu recours à un récepteur mais il fallait recharger la batterie par USB et impossible de l'utiliser pendant la charge. Là je branche sur l'USB (chargeur sur allume-cigare) l'auxiliaire jack est juste à côté, il est auto-alimenté C'est parfait. Et le tout pour 13€ c'est top !

Was soll man sagen? USB einstöpseln, LINE-Kabel einstöpseln, im Bluetooth-Menü das Gerät auswählen - funktioniert! Nach Trennung wird Verbindung automatisch wieder hergestellt, kein Schalter oder sonstige Aktion nötig. Einfach gut...An der Tonqualität kann ich nichts aussetzen, zumal diese ja sowohl in der Musik-App als auch am Autoradio nachjustiert werden kann. Bisher keine Verbindungsstörungen. Ich hoffe, das Gerät hält auch lange..

First impressions:. this is so simple and unobtrusive but does exactly what I need without any fuss. Simply plug into a USB port and the aux input and that's it. It turns on and pairs automatically when I start the car, no fussing with holding down a power button for 5 seconds. Pairs very quickly. I don't use it for phone calls so can't comment on the mic. the audio cable is pretty short, maybe 8 inches, but is very flexible (cloth wound) and doesn't get in the way. I love it, hope it lasts.

The radio that I have in my classic mustang does not have Bluetooth but does have an auxiliary port on the back. I ran an aux cord from the back of the radio to the inside of the center console where I have a USB charging port. Plugged this adapter in, connected to it, and like magic, I can now stream music from my phone which was all I really wanted to do.This car is pretty loud and is a convertible so you can imagine my surprise the first time I actually took a phone call using this adapter and the other party didn't know. In fact, when I asked how it sounded they were shocked that I was driving at the time because they couldn't hear any background noise. Maybe my phone filtered out some of the background noise but I still thought it was pretty good that the microphone could pick up my voice while it was inside of the closed center console.

I've got an older pioneer radio that doesn't do Bluetooth until now. I picked this product because it's USB powered and connects to an aux in. Both of those ports are right next to each other on this head unit so I didn't even have to unwind the cable, not bad. Sound quality for streaming music from Spotify is acceptable at reasonable volume levels, sounds way better than the Bluetooth rig in my other vehicle. Phone pairs right back up with this Bluetooth when I start the car with a couple pleasant beeps over the car speakers to confirm. Overall this is an awesome little gadget especially for the low price. Will update if anything goes wrong.update: something indeed did go wrong. suddenly I am getting bad electrical noises but only on voice calls. audio from google maps sounds great, music is fine, but voice calls not possible due to the bad noise. back to the drawing board.

Es increíble la calidad de sonido, la comodidad a la hora de conectarlo y lo pequeño que es. Detecta automáticamente la conexión y puedes oír cualquier cosa. La calidad del sonido inmejorable. Muy recomendado
