Not suitable for Ford vehicles

I am very disappointed with this device, the description of the device said it was compatible with a Ford car, when I had it it didn't work with my car .

Pros
  • Price
Cons
  • Cable is shorter than others

Works as advertised.

Only once did not connect automatically but connected many times to say it was a problem. Works perfectly. Very satisfied. I want it to work with my Sony XAV-AX7000 in my Harley too. I use it in a 2019 F-350.

Pros
  • I keep my fingers crossed
Cons
  • There are problems

OEM quality - electronics for cars and vehicles

I had ver. 1st ver. 2.0 is a 100% improvement. Very thin compared to the previous version. At startup, the machine boots 50% faster. All buttons on the steering wheel work. The sound has been improved by 50%. Very easy to set up. I installed it on a 2020 Mercedes Benz C300. OEM quality.

Pros
  • certified
Cons
  • embarrassed

Garbage! Doesn't work as described. Do not buy!

This is garbage. My Ford has everything you say you need to get the job done. I've tried both versions of it. It just flashes red, no connection, nothing. What a waste of time and money. If you say it works with 3 sync fords and factory carplay then it should work. Don't waste your money or time. Look for another brand.

Pros
  • sequins
Cons
  • crumpled

Turns off every 30 seconds

Tested on my 2016 Mazda CX-5 with factory carplay. I managed to connect it fairly quickly, but even after a software update, my phone would disconnect every 30 seconds and then take another 10-15 to reconnect. Back to Revain and I will not recommend this product for my car. I was hoping that this technology would be developed further in the future so I could add it to my car and it was great when it worked!

Pros
  • Delivery was very quick
Cons
  • Faulty

Doesn't work 100%. Replacing didn't help at all!

Line other review comments My Lincoln Corsair has often lost connection to my iPhone through this key. Annoying but doesn't disrupt the show. Not only did voice commands not work, but it also crashed CarPlay, which stopped working without restarting the dongle. The replacement device was definitely not plug and play. He couldn't connect at all. Waste of time, but at least Revain's return isn't a big deal. I sent both back to UPS and they were boxed and shipped back to you.

Pros
  • Useful not only for the intended purpose
Cons
  • Negative available

Car USB-C ports are not supported

I bought this because car compatibility said it would work on my 2020 Mercedes GLC which it doesn't. I have several USB-C to USB-C cables but none of them work with it. I contacted their customer service via WhatsApp and was advised to buy a USB-C to USB-C adapter from them as the amperage/voltage of the cables I have must be wrong. I'll buy their cable to prove it works, but it's still poor engineering on their part. I connected a 10" USB-A cable to their standard adapter and turned it on. I'm

Pros
  • Easy setup
Cons
  • There are other interesting options.

Technically it works but not well enough

I followed the instructions and it worked but not very well. When plugged in it works just like wired CarPlay, with the following downsides: Annoyances: - Mine won't connect unless I disable my iPhone's (11) Bluetooth from the car stereo - I assume it uses its own Bluetooth connection to connect to my phone and you can't have two connections at the same time. - About 1.0-1.5 seconds delay when skipping songs, forward/backward with steering wheel controls, touch screen controls, etc. - When the…

  • good thing
Cons
  • I don't remember but there was something
