Ipod Iphone Fm Transmitter Charger Holder Car Dock Kit Review

Ipod Iphone Fm Transmitter Charger Holder Car Dock Kit
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
When I first hooked this up to my iPod, it worked as expected...the first time. I used it for about 20 minutes. The second time, about 10 minutes into using it the FM transmitter seemed to stop transmitting. I made sure it was completely in the 12V outlet and all the connections were secure, and it was on the right FM frequency. Even without the iPod attached, there should be silence on the frequency on which it's transmitting, but it was just static. The charging part of it still works fine. The FM transmitter works off and on for apparently no reason. Even when it is transmitting, the cord that goes to the headphone jack is very spotty - you have to turn it around in the jack just right or you only get sound to one side of the car or there's a lot of static. My headphones work just fine, so it's not the jack on the iPod. When it's actually transmitting and everything is adjusted just right, it sounds great. I'd return it, but for $9 it's not even worth paying the return shipping. So, if you're looking for a charger, it works fine. If you're looking for an FM transmitter, I'd look elsewhere.

XtremeMac IPV-APV-00 AirPlay Boost FM Transmitter for iPod Video (White) Review

XtremeMac IPV-APV-00 AirPlay Boost FM Transmitter for iPod Video (White)
Average Reviews:

I just got this and here's my take:
Pros:
- Good sound quality
- Sleek and attractive looking
- Pretty easy to use
- It will override a station with a slight signal, such as my 87.9 FM which in NYC has some interference on it when the ipod is not playing.
Cons:
- Signal distance is very short. This thing tops out at a distance of like 1-2 feet max. I ended up putting it on top of my radio where it worked fine.
- My biggest beef is that it will not fit into my ipod with the case (Capdase silicone) still on. If it fit in with the case on, I would probably give it 4 stars.

Airplay Boost streams your music over any FM frequency. By tuning AirPlay Boost and an FM stereo to the same open frequency, you get an instant, wireless connection.

IESSENTIALS MP-HFM DIGITAL FM TRANSMITTER WITH CAR CHARGER Review

IESSENTIALS MP-HFM DIGITAL FM TRANSMITTER WITH CAR CHARGER
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
What I like about it:
1)Sleek design that matches exactly the style of my ipod touch
What I didn't like about it:
1)Slips out of the ipod rather easily because it lacks the little clips on the sides that some of these connectors have--very annoying.
2)The shaft of this connector that goes into the ipod wasn't long enough to connect properly after I put a rubber case protector on it. Not really the fault of this unit, but the reality is that most people will probably have a similar experience given that you buy this to use with your ipod in the car.
3)Not all channels are available, so if you find a clear channel on your car radio, it might not be available on this unit.
4)Does not scan automatically to find the next clear channel like some of the more expensive models do, so trying to get to a clear channel between this and your car stereo is at least as involved as texting while you drive. I don't recommend doing either. It's a royal pain when you're driving and you start getting interference.
To sum up, I decided to use an old cassette tape converter / connector instead. It makes a little noise due to the plastic gears spinning which is not ideal, but I usually only hear it between songs when no music is playing. (Maybe by now they've improved these and you can get one that doesn't have moving parts that make noise). That said, much better sound quality and not losing your signal and having to adjust your radio station and the station on the FM Transmitter while driving make it a much better option in my opinion.

8-in-1 Wireless Automobile FM Transmitter, Car Charger, and Dock with Remote for Select iPods Review

Decent item, but the description says the charger works and has been tested with the iPhone 3G.
What it doesn't say is that it that you will get a message stating that it will only work in AIRPLANE MODE. Click "NO" to NOT go into AIRPLANE mode and it wil work fine anyway.
Also, you can skip connecting the charging piece and only connect the sound/headphone output to the FM transmitter -- it works fine as well.

GTMax Permium Black 7-In-1 FM Transmitter Car Charger Kit for Apple Iphone 3G... Review

GTMax Permium Black 7-In-1 FM Transmitter Car Charger Kit for Apple Iphone 3G...
Average Reviews:

I love this product! It is very easy to use, and it makes listening to music/talking on the phone much easier in the car. The 'snake arm' adjusts to fit the power outlet in my car, and there is a tilt ability for the actual holder. This fits my iPhone 3G with a thick case on. It can also adjust smaller than that for a regular iPod. The sound quality is near perfect - you just have to turn up the radio a little higher than normal. The FM transmitter adjusts to any FM channel.
I would definitely recommend this product to anyone. This isn't a name brand product, but I would consider it comparable to one. I've been looking to buy one for a little while now, and have seen them going for $70 and up. This is a steal at $22!

My husband is obsessed with listening to his ipod on his daily one-hour commute, so when his $50+ FM transmitter/car charger broke, he was not a happy camper. We searched in all kinds of stores, but could not find a reasonably-priced FM transmitter/car charger anywhere. Then I started searching online, and that's where I found this fantastic product.
I'll admit I was concerned. Usually when a product is priced so far under value, you have to question its quality. I'm glad I took my chances though. Not only does this FM transmitter/car charger work beautifully (as long as you have it set to the right station), it exceeded our expectations. We were beyond pleased with the LCD screen display, the holder for the ipod, and the remote control.
In addition to receiving such excellent quality, the delivery was incredibly fast and the product arrived much sooner than the expected shipping date that was indicated.
I would highly recommend this product and this seller to everyone. A+++

I bought this searching for a dock for Ipad2. I guess that the connection is not optimized for this device because it is always needing constant pressure (ie physical force) to keep it connected during bumpy roads. My daughters Ipod Nano worked well on that note. The rubber bumpers on the back melted off in 90 degree weather and I had it sitting in my cup holder and when I closed it the USB connector was pinched and cracked. I'd like to return it soon

This product is being used on my iPod Touch. The great thing about the iPod car kit is even with a hard plastic/rubber protective case left on, it fits into the charger. The clamps are firm enough to keep in place, but not so tight you can't get it out easily. I like the charging capability and the transmitter portion is fairly easy to set up. However, the reason for the 3/5 stars is No Instructions. Anywhere. There are no explanations in the packaging about subtle little things you might want to know. Like how to set the time. Also, the remote seems to work, but only if you are on "shuffle" or playing an album and want to rewind, advance, skip or repeat songs. It won't turn on backlight on my Touch, won't bring up playlists or anything else that is imprinted on the remote.
Also, I have yet to find any car accessory that uses FM as a transmission source that sounds perfectly clear or equal to cable/jack connection. This is one of them. (I also have a Delphi XM radio that I have cabled to the tape deck, because the FM signal never sounds as clear.)
I had to crank up the volume on the iPod Touch, the car radio and lower the Delphi XM to be able to switch between the two music sources without blasting the volume. The trade off is that the iPod now has noticeable background static.
Not a bad product if you have the available cigarette adapter holes left over and want to keep your iPod tTouch in a convenient place while you drive.

Despite the great price of this product, I was quite disappointed when it broke within three uses. Two main problems...the iPod doesn't stay docked well and frequently falls out while going down the road. Secondly, the dongle that plugs into the bottom of the iPod came apart to where only the metal was exposed. This was a huge problem in that the small parts cannot be easily reassembled (if at all) and caused the dongle to get jammed into the iPod. Luckily, I was able to remove it and salvage my iPod from any permanent damage. There are two great points to this product, however. One being its clarity. When the proper channel was chosen, the songs came in rather clearly. The second is the remote. The remote worked great and was a nice addition. All in all, I would not recommend this product.

First, let me say that this item works mostly as advertised. It hooks up fine with my ipod 5th generation and plays over the FM radio without much static as long as I choose an unused station. It also remains in place fairly well in the lighter socket.
My big problems with this product are:
1) Each time you turn off the car and turn it back on, you have to reset the transmitting frequency (station) on the unit. It resets to 88.1 every time power is removed.
2) Each time you turn off the car you have to also turn off (or pause) the ipod or else the ipod will keep playing. Likewise, each time you turn on the car, you have to press play on the ipod to start playing.
In my other car I have an old product (no longer available) that has neither of these problems. I don't need to touch it when turning off or on the car and it continues right where it left off.

The item is good. It works well and it does what it claims. It keeps the ipod in place and you can listen to your music in the car through an FM station. The drawback is that in my car if I place the charger in the lighter opening, the gear lever pushes the holder. There is not enough space for both. So check if you have enough space in your car before buying.

Universal All-in-1 FM Transmitter + Car Charger + Remote Review

Universal All-in-1 FM Transmitter + Car Charger + Remote
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
I have had this item for a few days now and am very happy with this purchase. I recently went to Best Buy and bought a Belkin corded FM transmitter for $30 and the quality and consistency of sound from this Universal product is so much better. I have a Google Nexus S.
The plug-in fits very snug into my cigarette lighter and holds my phone firm. The side clamps hold my phone very snug and do not interfere with the volume and power keys on the side of the phone. The bottom prongs slide side to side, and do not seem removable. The gooseneck pipe is very stiff and holds its position as I whip the steering wheel on my BMW coupe, but it is not so flexible where I can maneuver it to get the best angle to look at my phone. It comes with an iPhone cable already built-in as well as a 3.5mm headphone cable. The USB port on the device allows me to charge my phone (I bought the micro USB cable separately), listen to music as well as make and accept phone calls on my phone through my speaker system (although 1 out of 5 calls do not seem to go through properly) all at the same time. The sound quality for my music is incredible compared to the $30 Belkin FM transmitter. The sound is more comparable to radio, but not so much CD quality.
For less than $15, this is the best electronic device I've purchased in a while. Im even buying my girlfriend one for her iPhone.
The only reason why I give it 4 stars is because Im not sold on the quality of the materials. The performance for the price give it my solid 4 stars.

I just got this item a little while ago and must say it's one of the better purchases I've made in a while. My 2002 Jeep Wrangler only has a CD player, so for my brand new 32GB iPod Touch, it was either an FM transmitter or an overhauled dashboard. I opted for the much more lucrative of the two. I must say, I couldn't be happier with this product. Sure, you have to deal with signal interruptions as you pass through different towns with conflicting FM stations, but that's true of all FM transmitters. I am very pleased with the sound quality I am getting from this device with only a subtle hiss in the background when the music quiets (but this is probably caused by signal interference and not from the unit itself). I previously owned a cheapo $10 transmitter from ebay for my iPod Nano - this one is only a bit more expensive, but has infinitely better sound quality. As a previous reviewer mentioned, listening to music from your iPod with this device is very much like tuning to a clear FM station. For the audiophiles out there, this might be unacceptable (but they probably wouldn't be purchasing this kind of product anyway). For someone who wants an easy to use FM transmitter with great sound, this is for you.
Pros:
- Extremely reasonable price (compared to what they charge for similar devices at Best Buy)
- Great sound for an FM transmitter
- Easy to install and operate
- Long, flexible arm (the cigarette lighter in my car is recessed pretty deep; this device fits perfectly)
- Solid, attractive design that matches the style of the iPod/iPhone
Cons:
- Remote control only works when held directly in front of the device (low battery?)
- You must manually tune the device to a new frequency during signal disruption
- I was able to tune my old FM transmitter to 87.7, which is usually a clear frequency in most places; this one only allows you to tune from 88.1 - 107.9
