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

    I thought for that price, I would get one that hasn't been opened. Fingerprints on the screen too? .. really? Sucks to open this. Plus, being on hold to speak to one person for 25 minutes, finally speaking to someone, and she transfers me to an automated helper??? This is a joke right?

    Compared to iPod touch, Sony standby battery couldn’t compare. Bluetooth doesn’t really work with the 2015 Camry. Awkward interface. Not recommended. The only redeeming feature is the sound quality

    No, I would not recommend this to a friend
