Review on πŸš— Anker ROAV SmartCharge F0 Bluetooth FM Transmitter for Car, Audio Adapter & Receiver, Hands-Free Calling, MP3 Car Charger with Dual USB Ports, PowerIQ, AUX Output - No Dedicated App by Marc Oner

Revainrating 4 out of 5

It's 2018 and I just bought an FM transmitter. For real!?!

I can't believe I waited so long. It was delivered about an hour ago and I set it up in about 5 minutes. I bought it for several reasons: - My new iPhone doesn't have a headphone jack and I don't want to buy a stupid Apple dongle so I can charge it. and listen. My Toyota Highlander 08 Bluetooth only works for phone calls. Thank you for this Toyota, great! - A new CarPlay receiver would be great, but it costs a lot more than $$. - Since this FM transmitter also has USB ports, I can kill two birds with one stone. *Pros:* -Affordable -Easy setup - Sound quality is GREAT! - Two in one, USB charger and Bluetooth FM transmitter - There's also an AUX jack if you don't want to use FM - Takes a second, but my iPhone's audio pauses when I turn around out of the car , like I said, they set it up in 5 minutes and the music sounded GREAT! Noticed slightly better quality/volume when using the AUX cable. It wasn't bad at all, but I need more listening time to really see how important it is. In both cases there was no static at all. I really didn't expect it to work that well, but I was so impressed that I had to leave a review. They connected via bluetooth and didn't get a 5* for 2 little things. First, it has a voice prompt on startup that Bluetooth is connected, which to me is silly and annoying. I'd rather have sound or the ability to turn it off. Second, the audio pauses on my iPhone, but with a slight delay. Two minor things again, but something definitely worth improving if possible. I'll try to update this review asap as I haven't used it for calling or charging yet. In general, I can definitely recommend buying it.

Pros
  • Sturdy design
Cons
  • Not automatic
