    This product does exactly what it's supposed to do. Paired fairly easily and keeps a low profile.

    Poor Design and Function

    Posted .
    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    I bought this bluetooth receiver in store because it was the only one available. The salesman assured me it was great for what I needed and that he'd used it for years. I needed a receiver to run bluetooth music to a whole house stereo system. There are three problems with it. - First it is always on and hijacks your bluetooth signal from other devices. For instance if I am using my bluetooth headphones and get within range of this device my headphones disconnect and the receiver takes over my bluetooth. - Second, it has very poor reception. If I am using it and I pick up my phone the signal cuts out momentarily. Also happens when someone walks between my phone and the receiver. These both happen within 10 feet of the receiver. -Third, if you try and correct problem 1 by getting it to actually turn off, then you have to manually press the power switch to get it to synch again.

    I bought this with some hesitation but after using it a couple of times am sold. When you need to get a bluetooth connection with minimal fuss this is the way to do it. The quality, small size, and superior battery life were all pleasant surprises.

    Was recommended by a friend to use for my specific application. Easy set-up. Took longer to open package than to get it up and running. Turn it on, search for it, plug and play......

    Fixed my car audio connectivity problem

    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    I've had a USASpec 30-pin iphone car for years, and it worked flawlessly up until the most recent iOS 8.2 upgrade. Even my 30-pin to 3.5mm audio adapter stopped working (why Apple???). I tried the Aluratek version that connected directly to the 30-pin connector and it did not work. I then found this and decided to give it a try and it is exactly what I needed. This paired to my phone immediately. You do have to push the button on the unit to connect each time you start your car, but so far it has connected right away with no issues. Connecting automatically would be a "nice to have", but the fact that it works is good enough for me.

    I have a pair of Bose speaker with a removable cord, but I wanted to make them wireless. This did the trick also kept the sound quality with my speaker. I feel this little device was well worth the price.

    I use this for my car radio, which has an RCA input. Makes using the bluetooth capability very easy. A little expensive for such a simple gadget, but worth every penny.

    It Functions... Nothing More.

    Posted .
    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    Short and sweet, as said in the title, this product functions. That's about it. It does what it says it does, but performs nothing short of mediocre, degrading your audio by the time it hit's your intended speakers. PROS: - Works - Range is Fine - Solves Desperate Connectivity Needs CONS: - Pairing/Seeking Time is Rather Long - Audio (Volume and Quality) Suffers Noticeably Compared to Other BT or AUX Connections VERDICT: If you NEED BT connectivity in a pinch, it get's the job done. But if you care at all about your audio quality at the end and your application permits it, skip the frustration, save the $30 and get yourself a decent Auxiliary cable for half the price.

    This is great! My daughter loves it. FYI it has to be plugged into a usb outlet to charge, but the fact that it has an internal battery for portability is really cool.
