Avantree Roadtrip - Car Bluetooth Speaker & Wireless FM Transmitter Kit 2-in-1 for Streaming Cell Phone Audio to Car Speaker with Hands-Free 6W Speakers, Built-in Mic, and Long 22hr Playtime

- Tested with iPhone 14 Pro- Pairs easily with phone, haven't tried its 2-phone capability. Very easy to set up an use.- Speakerphone totally rejects background sound even with car windows open and produces no voice dropouts even under severe background conditions. The parties I talk to are very thankful for this; they have long been annoyed by the background sound and dropouts with several other speakerphones I have used including the phone's built-in speakerphone and my Bluetooth 2-way speakerphone hearing aids. Part of the key to this good performance is probably the microphone being so near my mouth, since the unit is mounted on the car visor.- The built-in speaker is as good as an inexpensive small speaker is expected to be; being very near the driver's ears helps it to work without having to be turned up to distortion level.- The FM radio link is as good as FM radio links can be, i.e. there is some hiss and crackle but on the whole, with my fairly good quality car speakers, the speakerphone and music streaming sound over them is much better than the Roadtrip built-in speaker.- The button is very convenient for answering, rejecting, and ending calls and redialing, and for initiating Siri commands. But with the microphone so near my face I don't have to speak Siri very loud anyway, unless I have the speaker or car radio speakers playing loudly.- This is the only visor-mounted product I have found that both streams audio via Bluetooth and acts as a speakerphone, and it works very well.- Allows different phone apps to selectively use it, e.g. I can stream music over my hearing aids and use Roadtrip as my speakerphone.So do I have any complaints? Only some slight ones:- The unit is a little heavy, you might need to tighten the hinge on our visor to keep the visor from sagging, or add velcro to hold the visor up.- I am tall and was annoyed by the unit being mounted on the visor, particularly when getting in the car while wearing a hat. So I used velcro to mount it on the ceiling above the rear-view mirror. I have not tested its microphone pickup and background canceling performance in this configuration yet.

I have an older car (2005 BMW) and I’ve been looking for a solution to play my music and listen to audiobooks. I went to a couple of Mobile audio shops and they didn’t have a solution under few hundred dollars. One shop wanted to charge over $2000 to redo my entire system. This is a simple, easy hands-free, cordless, trouble free solution to connect my smart phone to my car speakers. I am now able to listen to satellite radio, audiobooks and even hands-free phone calls. All, without breaking the bank. The most difficult thing is finding a radio station that is compatible. With just a little time and patience, I was able to connect a trouble free system that sounds pretty damn good.

No directions needed. Battery was charged when I pulled it out of the box. My phone immediately connected to it. First time using it, played music straight from the unit. Sound is ok for what it is. Second time using, tried the FM transmitter. Selected a frequency and my work truck picked it right up. When I got out of the truck, I left the unit on. When I returned and started the truck, music instantly played from the truck speakers. There is slight static in the speakers at very low volume. Highly recommend it for those with older vehicles that can't connect directly to their vehicle sound system. I'd give it 5 Stars (and probably should) if it weren't for the static. But I don't know, never used an FM transmitter before. Might just be normal. Again, I want to emphasize you could only hear the static at low volume.

My car is too old to have built in bluetooth, but the law says I cannot hold a phone in my hand. That means that even though I can run an aux cord and hear callers over my speakers, no one can hear my responses. Now that I have this handy gadget on my visor everyone says they can hear me as clear as a bell.One drawback is that I also listen to books, and when I prefer to listen on the car's speakers, but unless I turn the device off, there is no way to do that. Of course, I don't want to turn it off, because then Ican't answer my phone calls!Bottom line: It was a good buy.

Neat unit that seems to function well EXCEPT the power cord is too short. The cord is taunt from the unit mounted on the visor to the cigarette lighter power adapter. There is not enough slack to rotate the visor to the side let alone conceal it under the moulding.After a couple days use, I revised the review and lowered it to a 2-star rating. Not only was the cord provided too short, but this design does not lend itself to being installed on the visor even with a longer cord. If you lower or swing the visor away, the microphone is now facing the windshield or window and cannot properly pick up your voice.This thing is horribly unreliable as far as automatically pairing with my iPhone. Half the time it pairs the other half of the time it does not. When it does not automatically, I have to go through the fiddling process of rebooting devices and repairing. Naturally, this is annoying when I just want to get in my car and go.The transmitted volume to the FM radio is low volume. To hear the call or streaming music, the car radio must be cranked to its loudest. Switching to a local broadcast without turning the radio on is deafening.The thing is better than nothing, but not much better.Revised after three months: the transmitter to send the audio to the truck’s radio failed. Well, at this point it is off to the landfill.
