Review on GOXT Direct Plug Bluetooth/FM Transmitter: Enhanced Car Audio Connectivity, 18843 by Nick Esquibel

Revainrating 3 out of 5

Works fairly well and doesn't bother

*****4-26-21 UPDATE TO MY ORIGINAL REVIEW BELOW***** After using this device for a few months, I've liked it less. The sound quality wasn't the best at first, but was acceptable, but got progressively worse over time. For some reason now it has fairly consistent noise no matter what frequency I use. I am already looking for a replacement due to static issues. Not recommended. *****ORIGINAL REVIEW***** I love this bluetooth transmitter. My 2012 model car doesn't have built in Bluetooth so I need something to enable music streaming and phone calls through the stereo. This block does it pretty cleverly. It pairs easily with my phone, and it's easy to tune the frequency to be open and clear. The transmitter is the epitome of simplicity, with just a few buttons that are great for music control and command calls. The sound quality is good but not the best. I've had several other transmitters over the years and this one is a little more prone to a bit of static build up. Fortunately, I have no problem understanding or being understood by others when I speak. The best thing about this unit is its small size, and I'm willing to trade a slight drop in sound quality in exchange for the space saved. The outlet in my car is right in front of the cup holder, so I need something small that doesn't stick out too much and block the cup holder. A lot of other transmitters on the market are bigger and bulkier, but this little device doesn't take up much space at all and I can still use it to place my morning coffee in the holder. All in all a solid device in a great little package.

Pros
  • Hands-free operation
