Review on 🎧 Coodio USB Bluetooth Music Audio Stereo Receiver: Perfect for Car AUX, Home Mp3 Speaker, iPhone by Reggie Higdem

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Works perfectly. for what it's worth

need a way to add bluetooth functionality to my outdated (but still loved!) iHome alarm clock. Connect it to the AUX cable and the other end to the USB extension cable, which then goes into the power adapter. Nice system because when I'm done listening to music on my phone I can just unplug the USB from the Bluetooth device. Two problems - first, the inconsistency in advertising this product. Some reviewers reveal that they come in plastic packaging and the device itself is imprinted with the official Bluetooth logo and font. Mine was wrapped in a little plastic bag and the logo is some sort of regular sans serif typeface that's been half worn since the day I opened it. It also turns out that some people get a device where the connection indicator is a short beep, while others are fine. the entire announcement. I was in the last group. It amazes me a little when what I'm hearing goes from ambient music to YOUR BLUETOOTH DEVICE HAS BEEN TURNED OFF, but hey, what can you do? I usually turn off iHome before turning it off so I don't have to hear the voice. Second, at the time of writing this review, I cannot connect it to my laptop. So if you have a Lenovo Flex running Windows 10, you might be out of luck. Or maybe there is a quick fix. if so, i haven't found it yet. It would be a little more convenient not to have to juggle two devices when playing music at work. Maybe I can find a way to fix it. Overall I'm happy with it for the only purpose I got it for. Some people have had issues with it breaking or being hit too hard and shorting out, but as long as it stays in a place where you don't really get a lot of traffic you'll be fine.

Pros
  • cool product
