A very easy transmitter to use, with a clear mini screen to show which FM channel you need to sync your radio to. Just pop it into your car, match the numbers and boom, you now have an easy way to access your speakers and play what you like through your connected devices. I find the device feels in its shape and size a little bit flimsy or more breakable. It has not broken yet, it must be said, but I don’t get that confidence to press too firmly on all the buttons. One thing I do love it the multi charger ports, which is really handy for two people in the front to charge devices. In an ever increasing technological world, more connecting points for various adaptions is vital and this is good for the front of your car. The sound comes through clearly with good clarity and it’s decent quality for the price.
Good product, I’d recommend it.
Easy to connect, cheap
This product is a game changer and perfect for the car if you don’t have apple player or something similar.
Very easy to instal and good for the price I’d you don’t want to spend a lot of money. Also you can charge your phone too. It does have micro sd port and voice assistance , FM transmitter and you can talk on the phone without using your hands. Good product for the price. I would recommend.
price at time of review 12.99
it works, well kind of.. the tuning is a little awalkward and unless you find a channel with no absolutly no interfearance the audio sucks. that being said i live in a city and there are alot of cars on the road with these types of devices aswell as alot of radio stations ect. but compaired to the unit i was using, which filted out alot of this, this perticular unit seams to lack the power to do so.
Our 2012 Zafira has no Bluetooth capability so ordered this to facilitate playing music from phones.
This product is well designed, packing so much functionality into such a small unit. As well as Bluetooth connectivity, it allows for wired connection to devices, playing from USB sticks and micro SD cards as well as hands free calling capability.
Our intended main use is connecting the unit to an aux port in the car and connecting phones to the unit via Bluetooth. BT pairing is very straightforward, just switch the unit to BT mode and look for it in the list of available devices on your phone. Sound quality is good, if just a little less bass than a wired connection. I also tested by connecting the unit to the in-car system via FM frequency with the same result.
The hands free calling capability is good. Calls can be easily answered and terminated using the prominent button atop the unit.
I have one concern about this unit. It remains on in our car even after the engine is fully switched off. I’d be fearful of the car battery draining as the unit will always be ‘listening out’ for connections so must be drawing something. This means we need to remember to unplug it each time.
All in all, there’s so much functionality available here for a low price point.
This Bluetooth device is a great addition to any car. It fits into your cigarette lighter port and can be used as a source of music using Bluetooth from your devices, or a memory stick.
It tells you in real-time, the health of your battery on an easy-to-read screen.
It can also be used with Siri to answer and make phone calls.
You can even charge your phone whilst driving as well.
It was easy to set up following the instructions carefully.
It seems well made and the sound quality is surprisingly good too.
It’s a Natty device for a very reasonable price forwhatitdoes.
This little device works great. The Bluetooth connection is solid, alongside the FM transmitter. Operation is easy and intuitive, with the different buttons for each operation allowing you to easily skip songs or answer calls without even having to look at the device, which is very important while driving.
Sound quality is also great, along with the max volume, which I have found to be a problem with some of these FM transmitter devices.
The Mic also had good quality picking up my voice commands well.
No silly LEDs just 2 very practical and functional screens showing the information you need to know.
Each of the charing ports work great and it does support fast charge.
A great little device and the best of the Bluetooth FM transmitters I have personally tried.
Got this for my parents car which is quite old so no built in wireless connectivity
Installing this was very easy and straightforward since i’ve used one of these before but the instructions were easy to follow nonetheless
Reconnects easily and really quickly when the car turns back on which my parents love since they are not tech smart enough to fiddle with it and are just happy enough to play music on their phone and it automatically plays through their car speakers
Having recently acquired a mkV Golf, my son was looking for a way to be able to play his Spotify music through the stereo rather than just CDs. It looked like an upgraded unit might be the way forward, but this option was hundreds. I recalled having a basic FM transmitter many years ago in an old Megane which had a cassette player, it worked but was not particularly reliable.
This FM transmitter has way more functions than the older ones with far more practical and functional options for today’s tech such as smart phones. Once tuned to an unused FM frequency; 87.5 or 108 are worth a try in most of the UK outside big cities, the unit can be connected to your phone via Bluetooth or USB and it also has an aux facility if needed. Once hooked up, it enables hands free calling, satnav, music streaming, etc to be accessed through the existing car stereo. The USB ports allow fast charging which is good for longer distances if you are using your phone a lot. Not quite sure why I need a display showing me my car battery voltage though.
Overall, this unit is good value at 14.99 at the time of review given the number of features it has and how much it saves on upgrading the head unit.
We ordered this bluetooth to FM adapter for my older citroen.
You plug it into a 12v or cigar lighter socket and have to select a frequency on the adapter and then tune your radio into that frequency.
It works very well and has only dropped connection on 2 occasions.
The sound is only as good as your normal FM sound so don’t expect crystal clear bluetooth music but it still sounds good though.
I got the bluetooth call option working but the mic is very quiet and i had to talk very loud for the other person to hear.
Its also great for charging your phone via the usb.
Overall a good product but not perfect.
I got this neat little unit to use in my old Fiesta, which has no bluetooth fitted.
This little bluetooth adapter plus in to your cigarette lighter port and connects to a spare FM channel on the car stereo (I had no issue connecting immediately to the default channel). Pairing with my phone was quick and easy and a quick phone call from the wife to check it was working was a breeze. You just press the large central button on the unit to answer the call and everything is then channelled through your cars speaker system. Everything was very clear my end and I could be heard clearly too.
Aside from the bluetooth connectivity, this unit also has 2 USB in/out ports, for phone charging, inserting a USB drive or whatever. I plan to use one of the USB ports to charge my sat nav when driving, although at the time of writing this review I’d not tried that.
There is also a USB-C port and an Aux port – included in the box is a jack lead for connecting an mp3 player or similar, which I tested and it worked great.
Finally there’s a micro sd card slot.
Music can also be streamed from your phone via bluetooth and there are track skip buttons on the side of the unit.
The unit itself is very compact and has a bendy “neck” so it can be positioned how you like it.
The sound given via the FM channel is very good and very clear.
Having never owned one of these before, I can honestly say I’m more than happy with this and the price seems more than reasonable when comparing to similar models.
Obviously I have a lot more testing and playing about to do, but from a first impression its ticking all the boxes for me.
Short Story: This device does many things for 15.99 (the price at the time of review) and approaches things from the old-school idea of broadcasting an FM signal the car radio can pick up. It is useful in an older vehicle that doesn’t have Bluetooth connectivity. The device is also a fast charger (costing little more than one) and allows you to play audio and take calls, playing output sound via the radio.
The Longer Story: I remember coming across radio transmitters several years ago; these were hard-wired using a 3.5mm jack cable, most often to an MP3 player or similar.
And they worked.
Since those heady days in the early twenty-first century, we haven’t got flying cars – yet, but we do have smartphones with Bluetooth.
And while many In Car Entertainment units are Bluetooth capable, or at least have an aux in, some older cars do not.
This device uses the familiar Bluetooth 5.0 protocol, which means you can control calls and your smartphone as you might from a headset.
At the same time, this device is a “cigarette lighter” phone charger adaptor. Moreover, it offers fast charging from two power sockets: USB A and C sockets.
I needed my own appropriate cable/s, however.
There is a second USB A socket for data so that I can use a memory stick as my audio source.
In the same way, there is a TF card slot – allowing you to use that medium as a source for audio, too.
And there’s also a 3.5mm jack in port, which is quite unusual, so you can hard wire an aux source.
Alternatively, you can just use your smartphone to play audio via Bluetooth.
How does this sound?
I think the result is at least equal to audio from the broadcast FM Radio stations I might tune into.
In conclusion, this unit is handy if you have an older car, or have use of one, that doesn’t have Bluetooth music connectivity; it doubles up as a fast-charger (costing little more than one too) and allows you to play tunes and take calls over the radio.
Unlike changing the head unit, or even plugging in a wired MP3 player, the device is compact and as easy to use.

My older car has no aux socket or bluetooth so I needed some way to play my music from my phone or memory stick/card and this is it as long as you limit the memory size to 64GB which is plenty for my music list.
It has a host of other functions too like acting as a charger for my phone, a jack for MP3 players to connect (lead supplied) & Hands free phone calls are possible plus Sat nav audio can route through it too.
If you are a trucker with a 24volt system this will according to the manual still operate at 24v dc.
Easy to setup and enjoyable to use, i’m happy with mine.
This is a useful device for older cars without Bluetooth. It enables you to have handsfree calling through your old FM radio system.
What I also found useful was that you can play your navigation from your phone through this system at the same time.
It is relatively easy to set up with simple Bluetooth pairing and tuning your car FM system to match the device output.
When using a music app the buttons on the device allow you to change tracks.
As the car system is only a single frequency at a time, you cannot listen to FM on the car and use this device to input, so if you want music, you need to produce this from your phone to play through the car system.
The control on the device are not really suitable for Bluetooth handsfree calling but you can use Google voice commands on your phone and put the audio through this device.
I do not know if it is my car system or the device but the audio quality is not brilliant, I have tried many different FM frequencies in case it was interference but I just cannot get the perfect sound.
This is a true FLAC player and sounds amazing!
My first impression was this is a querky looking car media player and may not be up to much and yet this has been designed with features to make this media player easily accessible on the fly.
What I like the most about this car media player, you can pivot the player like a gimbal to find that perfect viewable angle without it getting in the way of changing gears or accessing other car controls.
Buttons are positioned so that you don’t have to fumble around. Familiarise yourself with the manual once that’s all you need or don’t, I found it very intuitive to operate.
Displays are well illuminated, easy to read battery voltage and track numbers. Switching audio tracks is fast and free of any hissing or popping noises in between. Pausing music is instant and no feedback in between either. Supports a good range of audio codecs of high quality with DSP. Taking calls over bluetooth is as expected and easy to do with complete control.
QC 3.0 and PD 3.0 are really necessary to have nowadays although I would prefer to have the latest charging revision, I found charging times were very respectable.
This is great value for money and the best FM transmitter I have used thus far. The signal processing is its highest selling point and has a good soundstage and can compensate for different car stereos.
You can even plug in a pair of iems for yourself or a passenger to take advantage of lossless audio experience.
I often have to drive hire cars for work and these are sometimes basic models that don’t have built in satnavs, Bluetooth or the ability to play music from a USB thumb drive. However I’ve found that they all have a cigarette lighter style power socket.
This adaptor is small with a lot of functionality.
It plugs into the power socket and transmits a signal to the car’s FM radio (which they all have) and links to my phone via Bluetooth for hands free calls and satnav audio.
It has a USB socket and a micro SD card socket to play music from a thumb drive or card and another two for charging devices (one type C and one type A). It also has a 3.5mm stereo jack plug input for MP3 players and the like.
Unfortunately it can only handle USB drives and SD cards up to 64GB which is a bit limiting. I’ve knocked a star off my rating for this reason.
The audio quality is very good.
The unit has two LED displays — One for the FM frequency and one for the battery voltage. The latter seems unnecessary.
The screen mount is on a sort of ball and socket joint with a soft sleeve so you can easily bend it to a convenient angle.
So overall it seems well thought out and works well but to get five stars from me it would need to accept bigger USB drives and micro SD cards for music.
This is for use in my 14 year old VW Jetta which has no hands-free facility.
Installing was easy. It’s a tight fit into the cigarette lighter but secure which is useful as the screen/button area on the device can be tilted. Once the device had power the FM frequency was displayed on LED 2 screen which I then tuned into my radio. Then I connected my phone to the device via Bluetooth and the phone found it straight away. The microphone on the device is good as you’re not relying on the phone microphone in case it’s stored away in a bag etc. There are additional features such as micro SD and USB but I’ve not used those yet but handy to know I can charge my phone whilst using the device.
A tidy and neat little option. Note the print in the instructions is quite small so glasses were required.
