    I have a similar product made by a different manufacturer. The other product sends a clear signal to the radio. The iSimple brand (this product) has a lot of static and the sound is terrible. I have used both products on the same radio and this one is not worth it. I will be returning it.

    It works well and does allow me to listen to the music on my phone on my car speakers, as well as GPS instructions, however, it does not allow phone calls to come through the speaker. It would be perfect if I could also use it for phone calls while driving.

    I’ve had so many cheap FM transmitter’s that I’ve gotten from Amazon. I grabbed this one at Best Buy without really knowing the price. I had sticker shock when I paid for it. It was worth every penny. I do long drives through the mountains where other transmitters would feel. The fact that this device automatically finds the best radio station is huge while you’re driving. It keeps me from having to mess with buttons in states with hands-free laws. It’s also nice that you don’t have to use an adapter with an iPhone to be able to charge and listen to music at the same time. Audio quality is head and shoulders above other FM transmitters. I’m always looking for a good deal, I’ve tried so many brands of cheap transmitters from Amazon and Best Buy. If you want to buy one that works and has iPhone charging capabilities without using the stupid adapters, this one is worth the price

    I’ve had this type of device before - 15 years ago. It worked fine back then. This one, ... No. don’t buy it. The device picked up lots of static from channel. Can’t understand what’s playing in cell phone via transmitter to in-car radio. Bad tech.

    This is actual garbage. I bought it and it broke within literally 10 minutes. I immediately took it back and got a different brand that's working great now. Don't get this. You won't be happy.

    This has the worst value of any other product in its class. I bought one roughly 4 months ago and the integrity of the wire degraded rapidly where it splits out of the am/fm transmitter brick. Besides being extremely fragile with its grade of wire... the clarity was trash. Depending on where i was in town, i had to cycle the channels constantly To not have my music drowned by static white noise. The 12v outlet section was also poorly fitted to my 12v outlets. It pushed it on its own when i would drive over any uneven section oF road that would cause a moderate bump. Up until recently i thought that this was just the nature of what i would have to deal with because my car doesnt have any usb media adapters. Boy was i wrong. I just spent 39.99 on a bluetooth am/fm adapter and all the reasons i hated this “isimple” product are now fixed. The difference is night and day. I was inspired to write this after experiencing the diff between the new bluetooth device i purchased And that 80$ piece of trash i was compromised with. Save ur money, buy anything else
