A 10/10 Must Buy - Works as expected, would look forward to future improvements!
For under $30, you absolutely cannot complain. A couple years ago I bought two wired units that were cheap, cheesy, and functioned fine. I gave the one I didn't like as much away. Recently I purchased a case for my new phone, and the jack would not fit without removing the case. I figured it was about time for some sort of upgrade. I have the S9+ and have zero issues with this transmitter.Pros - Many of these pros were mostly unexpected+ Button layout is PERFECT+ Unit is smaller than I expected+ Doesn't look as cheap IRL than I expected+ Specifications are that of 2017 or 2018 for sure, I mean Bluetooth 4.2 and QuickCharge 3? That's impressive!+ Connecting is a breeze. Connect via Bluetooth and start streaming music. Turn your phone volume and the device volume all the way up and you're set+ Prev/Next/Pause/Play are added bonuses that make driving much safer+ Call audio is pretty good! They can hear me well, visa versa+ Came with an extra fuse+ Music sounds great, bass comes through as expected+ Display, a pro and a conIn the middle, I haven't really figured out how to use the assistant with this device. I don't use Bixby. Google Assistant is far superior from any assistant for my daily life. I still find myself unlocking my phone and asking Google what I need. Not a big deal to me, I didn't even expect this as an advertised feature when I was browsing transmitters.Cons - This is more or less being picky about non-issues and future expectations for a new device update- The average person will lose the extra fuse. There should be a way to store the spare fuse in an empty compartment spot inside the transmitter.- Audio quality is superb, especially compared to the two units I had before. The only downside is that you may experience minor interference or hear feedback from your car. It is so minor, you likely won't notice and there's really no reason to care. Additionally, I found some mid strong notes cut a bit off on songs, but it may have been interference or just my stock car speakers- Every time you start your car, you have to hear the device telling you it is looking for your phone, and saying it is paired. *This is definitely the biggest con*, but not a huge deal. Still better than scrambling to plug the audio jack into your phone. I wish this could be disabled, because the transmitter is so reliable, I don't need to know that it's looking or paired.- The display is a bit cheap. What else would you expect? I certainly don't need a high end display because the one it has functions perfect. In a way, the display is also a pro. I would describe the display as, 'it lags behind with changing text'. I was adjusting the radio channel to broadcast to and that was slow and tedious, but it's easy to change so it's really a nonissue.- The only other downside I can find, is the audio will not be as loud when using Bluetooth, but most people won't notice. However, it also depends on what phone you have with how loud it is when using a wired connection.So what exactly would I like to see in an updated version? Newer Bluetooth version, built-in storage for the extra fuse. It would especially be great to adjust the Assistant activation to like 1 to 2 seconds (3 to 5 is a bit long). You're pressing the button for less than a second to Pause/Play, so the Assistant should be more convenient at 1-2. The most important thing to me would be muting the voice saying that the device is scanning or paired. My other unit had the ability to scan for empty channels, but please don't add that into this device because that just means wasted space on the device and a button I'll never press. Everything on here is so functional, and it should remain that way. I would almost go as far as saying to get rid of the volume level on the display, along with "Bluetooth BT70".***Lastly, and most important of what I'd like to see in a new version, I wish there was a wheel knob or button to lower or even turn down or off the brightness. Transmitters are always annoying to drive with at night. At the very least, to keep costs down, I would like to see a button with 4 or 5 brightness settings from OFF to Bright, and not on the front but on the SIDE of the device. Software functionality could be added, double or triple tap the Pause/Play button and turn the knob to adjust brightness.***Overall, what you get for under $30 is so much value. I will definitely be telling others about this. This is especially an awesome Christmas present or birthday present! This is by far the best unit you can possibly purchase, anywhere. I specifically paid $4 for faster shipping because it's so cheap. The price blows my mind, and the transmitter rocks my car! This is a must buy!

Easy to use, decent audio quality
I bought this with little expectations because I had heard that FM transmitters had the worst audio quality. But for the money I can say it works like a charm, a great solution until I can buy the digital screen I want.

My bluetooth transmitter
This item was good but not good enough, keeps disconnecting from the car bluetooth speaker on its own, and I hear a lot statistics noise are too high. Screen size is too small.High on the price side. I wish the warranty is one year.

Love this Product
I have used this every day for many years, and it works great! It always connects to my phone and is always easy to play music on and even skip songs!

Great buy
This worked great! Recently bought a 2011 Chevy Silverado and it was able to connect to my iPhone great. I listen to my music and even make calls.

Let me list the things it doesn't do!
1. It doesn't stay on if the car is in auxiliary mode.2. If your micro SD card has folders with music on them it will play it 8 track style (no shuffle option)3. This device does not have an equalizer which the picture suggested.Bluetooth connectivity; it works. Never thought it wouldn't.Value for money; you get what you pay for, but I'm currently pleased.Noise level; just adjust the master volume from the source. You'll find the sweet spot.Static content; and this is what I hoped for. There is none! BTW, the car is a 2004 Acura MDX.Latency; I don't use it as a home theater, with that being said I don't think it's a problem.

Fits my particular needs near-perfectly
Part of me expected to be disappointed by this, but the idea is just so great I wanted to give it a shot. So far it's performed at or above expectations! I really only use it for one thing, so that's where the 5 stars is coming from...note that things I *don't* use it for may perform much more poorly (perhaps the FM transmitter isn't very strong, etc). I connect my phone to bluetooth, and use an aux cable to connect this device to my car's stereo. It pairs automatically when I turn the car on, and works just as expected. I think what makes me so excited to use this is that it makes it much easier to 1. Change the volume and 2. Skip songs, vs doing those things on my phone or on my car's stereo (I do have a fairly old stereo, but the volume dial is too shallow to grab and twist easily without looking. I can't skip songs on it at all). The display shows my car's battery voltage at startup, which is a nice touch, for an old car like mine that can be valuable info. Oh, and two USB ports are super handy, I use those.Here is my feedback/disclaimers, though. These are things I wish were there but aren't dealbreakers for me, or things I haven't tried at all:* Haven't touched the FM transmitter* Haven't really used any feature beyond what I've described...the SD card reader, the hands-free phone calls, etc.* I wish there was a play/pause button.* I don't think the display shows song info? I thought that was an advertised feature. I mostly use Amazon Music instead of the native music app, maybe that has an impact on this, but it shouldn't. It doesn't bother me, though; I know my songs well enough to not need them displayed.* Number one complaint: it appears that the device sounds (most notably, the "waiting for pairing" and "device paired" notifications, which are spoken) are *not* affected by the relative volume of the device itself!! This to me is a major oversight...what it means is that when I first turn on my car, that voice telling me it's trying to pair is LOUD. I leave my car's stereo volume really high and just allow the volume control on this device to be the governing factor, but when the device audio isn't quieted by the device volume, it's an issue! So, you know, don't let this thing give you a heart attack like it did for me the first few times. It's still an annoyance, heart attack or not. I debated taking a star off for this, it really is a mistake. I'm curious if some kind of settings or something could adjust this (I didn't get any instructions with the device).So, to reiterate, *for my purposes,* this is totally a 5-star item. There are many similar items around, maybe a cheaper one would be just as good, maybe some of these other features don't work very well, maybe this thing won't last too long, but for now, I'm pretty dang happy. It solves a problem I have in a well-done way.Update: it’s been about a year and this device is still doing its job just fine. The loud pairing voice thing is still annoying. I actually think the issue may be that the device has no volume memory, it just resets to a (fairly loud) default every time it’s turned on. I keep my stereo volume a bit lower now, so it’s about right at that default volume. I have to mess with my stereo volume when I want really loud music, but this isn’t very often so the lack of volume memory isn’t a huge deal. Definitely still wish there was a play button, or that it would auto-play your music when it pairs. I’ve used other similar devices since writing this review, and I gotta say, the auto-pairing for this is lightning fast compared to many.
