If you drive a hoopdie like me, and you still have a cord to play your music through your stereo in the car, YOU NEED THIS. I can not believe how much easier this is! No more tangled cord. No more connection shorts. It’s so easy and like magic.

bluetooth device was easy to setup. sound transmitted is very clear. very pleased with the device.

Works great, just as advertised! Battery life is really good

I had been using an Anker Soundsync A3352 for a couple of years when it started to emit a terrible sound in my headset after a vigorous workout that may have gotten it wet. I was happy with the Anker and was going to replace it with another until I saw the price difference between it and other devices that report to do the same function. The Anker is listed at $32 US and this alt brand which is simply labeled on the device as Wireless Adapter (Model J33) and on Amazon it is listed as Bluetooth Aux Receiver for car is listed at $16.99 US. Both products have thousands of positive reviews and it did not make sense to pay twice as much for the Anker. For me, the size mattered. I use mine for a a wired Bose headset so I did not want a big chunky device in my pocket. Ultimately, it appeared to me that they were both roughly the same size so I purchased the J33.Size:Compared to the Anker, I believe you can see in the posted photos, the Anker is slightly thinner. I weighed them both on my food scale. The Anker was 14 grams and the J33 is 17 grams. Holding them, I can’t feel the difference. To be honest, when I look at them side by side, I think the J33 is a lot bigger but I believe most of that is an allusion due to the difference in shape. I also think the silver band on the J33 contributes to it looking bigger than it is. I prefer the size and shape of the Anker but for half the price, I can live with the J33.Buttons:For me, the Anker wins because I can easily feel all the separate buttons and turn it on and off and change volume without looking at the device. The volume buttons on the Anker adjusts the volume with each click/press of the button.The J33 has an easily found power button on its top. The volume buttons are on a bar along the side of the device.I hate the volume bottoms. You have to press and hold the button a second before it will work which makes it hard to do micro adjustments. It is still new to me so I am unfamiliar with which volume button I am pressing without looking at the device. Fortunately for me, it is a minor issue since I normally use my Apple Watch to adjust the volume of what I’m listening to.Battery:Anker is still using micro USB (Come on Anker! For twice the price, you need to catch up to the year 2023). The J33 uses USB-C. The J33 is listed as having a longer battery life than the Anker. I cannot say for certain if it is a longer battery life but I want to say the J33 does have a longer battery life and that may be where some of the extra weight comes from but the J33’s battery is new and I was charging my Anker every day or two.The Anker may have a shorter battery life but it is still pretty long and would give me a full day of use.Connectivity:The J33 is the winner here. I am able to stay connected at longer distances than the Anker. The J33 simply has a lot longer range. There were times the Anker would lose contact with me phone when I would walk into an adjacent room with a distance of no more than 20 feet and one interior wall between the Anker and my phone. With the J33, I have found myself leaving my phone downstairs and never losing my connection where as the Anker would have lost connection at the top of the stairs.Both devices have pros and cons for me. With that said, if the price was the same, I would be very tempted to get the Anker because of its shape, slightly thinner profile, and button layout because I carry this on my person all the time. If I was just using it for my car or another stereo system, price matters and I would get the J33 for almost half the price of an Anker.

Works great in my old truck. The only bad part is that it has to be charged periodically, instead of getting its charge from the truck.

The aux cord that I had stopped working so I started looking for another one to replace it and I came across this Bluetooth version. At first, I was skeptical that it would work but after I started using it I can say without a doubt it works great. It took a few tries to get it connected to my phone but after I got it connected the first time it connects perfectly every time. Definitely worth the money because I can leave it plugged in and can easily connect it instead of having to manually plug an aux cord into my phone every time I get in the car.

Battery lasts for weeks. Sound quality is outstanding. Phone calls are easy to make. It responds to Siri/Pixel commands. About the size of a silver dollar

The media could not be loaded. I'm here to save you some money, so thank me later. I bought this device as the hands-free option in my wife's car, which is a 2019 Acura MDX, became non-functional as soon as the warranty was up. Rather than to spend nearly a grand to get the new module, I started looking for something like this. In theory, it's pretty amazing. I got to use it the first time on a very long trip after I had the device for 10 days. Before I actually used it on any travel, I confirmed that it was working for about 30 seconds and did what it was supposed to. It worked for about 2 or 3 hours into my first (and only) trip with it, and that was it. I bought new 1/8" stereo audio cables, and new USB-C charging cables which you can see in the video, and I followed the path that somebody took with actually velcroing it and placing it firmly in the console of the car. Like I said, in theory, it's perfect.After it actually died the first time, I figured it was the car, or my phone, or not pairing correctly. However, I changed the cables in the car, where I plugged in to, even tried wall power as you see. Actually, I have been charging it since last night and it still shows that it has 10% on my phone but dies immediately. Basically, it does not work at all. I've already ordered something else, this one will definitely go to the landfill. I don't mind that it was so cheap, but the inconvenience of not having my phone (to call or use as GPS) or any music operational through the car stereo was a bit difficult to deal with. I would rather (and should have) spent more for something reliable.It definitely makes you wonder about the reviews on Amazon and actually how factual they are. This thing is highly rated and I'm not really sure why if the quality control is so shabby.
