Anbero Wireless In-Car Bluetooth FM Transmitter Adapter with USB Car Charger

This Bluetooth device has transformed my driving experience! My second car is an older Jaguar that I used to love to drive but didn't do so much of late because all it had was a CD player and FM. For a modest $20 this Anbero device has made driving my Jag fun again! All I had to do was plug it into the lighter socket and tune my radio to an unused station and voila!!! great sounds erupted from my Bose speakers. I liked it so much that I even bought one for my sister. That's what I call brotherly love.

This was just the product I've been looking for to go wireless in my vehicle. I've had fm transmitters before and some worked better than others. This transmitter has been the best so far. It's powerful enough to not give you any static or bleed through from radio stations and the bluetooth feature is awesome. I've been able to pair every device I have with it without any problems. It takes a little while for devices that don't show you their pairing id but I've yet to have a time that it didn't work. The charging usb port is 2.1 so it charges devices quickly and it even tells you the voltage that your car battery is putting out so if your battery is a little weak you can tell even if it turns the engine over ok. I haven't used all the features yet like the memory card mp3 player but for what I purchased it for as a wireless transmitter for my mp3 player it has worked flawlessly.

I purchased this after I bought a used car that didn't have Bluetooth or an auxiliary plug in. I wanted a way to play music from my phone. For the price, I guess it worked ok. It did play music from my phone, as well as allow phone calls. The volume can be controlled form the unit. Fits in the cigarette lighter outlet nice and snug. The only real complaint I had was the static when playing music. I tried just about every FM station the device would tune too. I only found a couple that sounded ok with no static and that only lasted for a couple of minutes. There is no bass when playing music through this device. Being the music lover that I am, that did not work for me. I opted to spend the money and buy a more expensive device that worked much better. The seller accepted my return and refunded my money with no issues. Thumbs up to the seller!

The product works quite well..but there are a few small (annoying) things that prevent me from giving it 5 stars.The sound is great,and the physical interface is great (the song advance button is one that I wasn't expecting in the product, but is very helpful).The USB charging option is quite nice.The sound quality is the best of any of the many similar devices that I have used.On the negative side:-When it is plugged in, and you start the car the is a loud, annoying voice telling you that it is searching for a device to pair with and then saying "Paired". This should just be a couple of friendly beeps. If there is a way to reconfigure this, PLEASE let me know.-The volume doesn't seem to go quite as loud as other, similar device that I have used.-Also, overall the device is bigger than I would expect.-Lastly, when you have your phone plugged in, and are connected by bluetooth, some thing seems to happen so that music plays nicely, but driving directions are not spoken over the bluetooth/radio connection.

Overall, this is a great product. Installed in a 2006 Toyota Camry, it does everything as expected. It should be noted that the quality of the audio is actually much better when streaming music from your phone as opposed to playing music from a TF Card. For some reason, the conversion of the bluetooth signal into Frequency Modulation, produces better sound than when the device just converts MP3/WMA into the radio FM (weird). I have been using my LG G3 to stream music from Spotify, and it has been an EXCELLENT experience!!ALSO: All the music files on the TF need to be located on the direct drive of the TF card. The Anbero will NOT recognize music that is put into folders on the TF card. I can also confirm that it does NOT display song information for music streaming from the phone... even though my Spotify app specifically gives permission for other apps to see music information (you can turn this on/off in Spotify's settings). I have to assume that it just doesn't work for music streamed from the phone, and unfortunately, I have not had the opportunity to test whether or not the Caller ID actually works either. (My phone sits on a vent-mobile holder anyway, so its directly in my line of sight... I can just look at Spotify and the Caller ID on my phone... so meh)============================================GRIEVANCES:It can be a challenge to find the proper station that does not produce interference, and even then (as others have stated), you will probably hear a little background noise when you have the car stereo volume all the way up (and the Anbero volume all the way down). I usually use this method to find a station that has the least BG noise when the car volume is all the way up, then I turn the car volume down a little so I don't hear the noise; then I switch to my phone stream (long press the Forward button) and turn it all the way up, and then I actually use the Anbero to adjust the volume of the sound normally. But it should be noted that if you are listening to an actual FM radio station, you will probably experience FAR more interference from many more sources, than you will when streaming to the FM using the Anbero... so as many have stated, interference should just be expected.Since the device does not recognize music in folders on the TF Card, it makes navigating music pretty cumbersome. I mean I have a 32 GB UHS-1 Sony TF Card, and like 150 songs on it with room for thousands. You can activate the Random function by long pressing the Back button, but still this is not very ideal. For practicality, you would probably only want to use the TF card if you are in an area where your phone has no signal and can no longer stream; otherwise, its just a pain if you have a large number of songs on it.Unfortunately, due to the position of my cigarette adapter, I have to turn the device sideways to actually plug it in (my adapter is underneath an overhang beneath my dashboard console), otherwise it will not plug all the way in, which was a little disappointing. The neck is flexible enough that I can turn it and have it tilted about 15° - 20° to the left, but not flexible enough that I can twist it into a 90° position. Luckily, the display is nice and big enough that its still easily readable, and easily controllable from that position.============================================The call quality seemed much better than the FM quality, although the FM quality is very good when you find the right station and device volume combination. I haven't had to use it at high speeds, so I am not certain if that will cause an issue (I had one around-the-neck blue tooth device, made by LG no less, where no one could hear me if I was going faster than like 30mph).Overall Score: 8/10Sentiments: Would Buy Again / Purchase As a Gift

I was planning on replacing the aged stock (but fantastic sounding!) Deck in my Dodge truck to get Bluetooth connectivity.... But $300 for a medium-grade deck seemed silly so I looked at Bluetooth receivers/transmitter. The Anbero had good reviews plus offered pass-through USB charging port and an Aux jack for under $30.It took one try to pair my phone, and now pairs almost instantly every time I start my truck. The sound is amazing, once I found a clear FM channel. My first choice gave me light static but my second try gave me clean clear sound and signal. It doesn't seem to support Bluetooth calling, but that may just be me not trying it. Music does mute when I get a call but I hear the caller through my phone not the stereo. No biggie. Love this unit!
