3.0 out of 5 starsPerfectly acceptable, just not what I need.
June 10, 2018
I've been scouring Amazon for a Bluetooth receiver that will work well in my car, specifically one that will automatically turn itself on/off and connect/disconnect with the car, and unfortunately, this is not it. I have a 2010 Honda Accord, with the aux jack tucked in the center console in the armrest. The car has Bluetooth, but only for phone calls. I wanted something that would automatically connect when I get in and start the car, but this device is not that smart, however. When nothing is connected for a period of time, it goes to standby and eventually turns off. So, when I get in the car, I have to toggle the power switch before my phone will reconnect. It does auto-connect when powered on, which is better than some, but I still have to open the armrest and flip the switch. When leaving the car, the device has a battery, so the phone will stay connected unless you remember to disconnect or go out of range. This isn't what I am after, so I'm back to looking for a different receiver. I don't know why I thought the Mpow did what I wanted; looking back at the description and reviews it is clear that I need a receiver without a battery. For what it is, the Mpow is fine. Audio quality is fine, battery life is excellent, very compact. When it is turned off or gone to standby, it does produce a noticeable amount of hum on the aux jack.

I thought that with the two usb metal adapter it was not possible to connect it near the three outputs (usb, aux, and cigarette lighter) in the place and I had to use the auxiliary cable that it brings for my 2013 elantra but it works very well, the audio It is very good, it is a good product, now I use it for everything.

5.0 out of 5 starsCustomer service is awesome.
June 24, 2018
Color: BlackVerified Purchase
Crackling noise and stopped working after a little over a month. 10 days after the return date to be exact.
*****Please note that Bella at customer service sent a new adapter immediately with apologies.
I waited until I used it for several months before writing a review, if it warranted one.
This one works as was advertised! Have used it daily, many times a day for over 5 months and would purchase it again.
Thank you very much Bella. Your customer service is appreciated. I now will change my rating to 5 stars.

5.0 out of 5 starsLove this so much, I bought a second one
January 28, 2019
Color: BlackVerified Purchase
I bought this receiver to connect my iPhone to the aux port in my car's stereo. I used double sided 3M tape to hold it next to the transmission lever, where I can easily control playback and power. It is also close enough to the 12v car charger that I can keep it connected full time and never worry about battery draining.

There are many pros to this device:
- Sound quality is great
- Battery life is great
- The device does not lose connection when connected to a power source for charging. This means that you can connect your phone to the receiver and start music playback before starting your car's engine. As you know, starting an engine cuts power to most of the car's electronics, including the 12v outlet. MOST bluetooth devices automatically turn off when connected to power, but not this one. This might be an underrated feature, but to me it is so valuable, that I decided to buy a second one to use outside of my car.
- Power switch, which means no need to hold a button for 5 seconds to turn on or off the receiver.
- The male-to-male 3.5mm adapter can be removed so you can use your own auxiliary cable or headphones.
- Connects to your phone very quickly.

Cons:
- The receiver feels very cheap. I know the price is not high, and though I believe you get a lot of value for your money, the build of the receiver is very flimsy. This is especially apparent in the on/off switch.
- Would have been nice to have a clip or some way to hold the receiver in your clothes, though this is likely not the intended purpose of this item.

I guess the good thing about this not having a clip is that you can secure it in a flat surface with double sided tape.

All in all, you get great value for your money, even if the device feels cheaply built.

I am EXTREMELY happy with my purchase.

4.0 out of 5 starsBT was easy to set up
May 2, 2018
Color: BlackVerified Purchase
BT was easy to set up. It's great as far as listening to my podcasts or music from my phone. Downside to this item is how bad this is to people calling me. There's a humming or static that my callers hear. It's annoying so when someone calls me I turn off the BT and turn it back on when the call is completed.

I've seen on Amazon that MPOW also makes a "Mpow Ground Loop Noise Isolator for Car Audio". Supposed to eliminate this issue. I kinda figured that they would've added this already but it is what it is. I haven't researched it thoroughly but it's a start. I'll update after I buy it.

05/21/2018 UPDATE:
Bella, from the Customer Service Team of Patozon Amazon Store contacted me via email after I left a 3 star rating. I bumped up to a 4 star after the excellent customer service I received in trying to rectify the issue.

Bella offered me a different model to make sure that I was satisfied. I agreed to this just to see if I had a bad one to begin with or something else. Her reply email was, "Please be sure to contact us immediately if there are any problems with the replacement after you receive it. We promise that the issue will be solved perfectly if you are willing to give us the chance."

I received the new unit and I made time to go through both to see what the difference was. I originally had the unit attached with the aux piece that comes with the unit on my radio. On both, the noise/humming was almost the same. I attached the aux cord that comes with it and sat it on my console next to me. Doing this was a big deal as the aux outlet from my radio is next to the a/c vent and it was picking up that noise when it was next to it.

What it boils down to is the mics that are built into these things pic up everything. It’s not perfect but still doable and I’d still recommend these units.

5.0 out of 5 starsWhat I was looking for but updated
July 17, 2019
Color: BlackVerified Purchase
The Apple lightning cable 3.5 mm adapter went and I didn’t want to spend $40 bucks to replace it. I picked this one off Amazon and it works flawless. I use this primarily in my semi truck and it works great. My iPhone connected to it no issues. I know sometimes connecting devices can be wonky but not this. There are a few buttons on it, on/off, pause/play and plus/minus. The unit acts like a remote pauses and plays and +/- changes songs. It does other things but it’s all in the manual. I just use this for Spotify/music. I was looking for something inexpensive and works good because if it breaks I can easily replace it. I’ve heard of the brand before but for their headsets and wasn’t worried about quality. The headsets too get great reviews (I think I’m the only driver that doesn’t wear a headset hahaha). This is the first Mpow product I’ve owned and I’m pleased with it. If your looking for a Bluetooth auxiliary adapter I definitely recommend this one!

Updated- In my semi the unit works flawless no issues still. Today 8/19/19 I was out and found a Monster 3.5 mm to RCA cheap and got the idea to try it on my turntable setup. I wanted to use Spotify for music that is hard to obtain or doesn’t exist on vinyl. I hooked it up to my Onkyo TX-8020 (a great modern analog stereo receiver that I also purchased on Amazon. I also highly recommend). A couple of times the adapter did cut in and out. I just had the adapter right next to the receiver. Might be interference because I have a Bluetooth Bose speaker near the receiver also. Again the adapter and Spotify isn’t the primary source of music in home so I wasn’t bothered by it.

5.0 out of 5 starsExcellent product.
July 18, 2018
Color: BlackVerified Purchase
I do not understand what some negative reviews are about. The sound is very clear and loud. I just leave this connected to my auxiliary port and turn it on by flipping the switch on top and the connection is established in a second or two. When i leave the truck I turn it off. Perfect. Battery life seems very good too, i listen to it for 30 min on the way to work and same on the way back, and have not had to charge it in 4 weeks. It is a very good product, a solid purchase.

5.0 out of 5 starsAmazing range and sound quality for the price, comparable to a real headphone jack.
May 9, 2019
Color: BlackVerified Purchase
For the price you can’t get anything better. The build quality is sturdy and feels solid for being plastic. I set my iPhone 8 on a table in my basement and I was able to walk atleast a good 20 feet away all the way against a wall and it did not disconnect whatsoever. The sound quality is great, nice tight deep bass, balanced mids and treble. Compare this for 15 bucks with a pair of 15 dollar or less earphones you have a way better value than bluetooth headphones from the big brands. I use JVC athletic headphones that I got for less than 15 bucks. Only complaint is the lowest volume level is pretty loud, this isn’t much of an issue for me but may disrupt others in a library or quiet classroom. It isn’t that loud though. If you’re thinking about buying this get it! It includes a male to male headphone jack coupler and a male to male cable. You can also plug headphones directly into the unit. It also includes the micro usb charging cable, but you will need a usb charger to plug it into, no big deal.

Note for pairing: when you first switch it on it should start flashing like crazy, this means it is ready to pair and should show up on your device’s bluetooth list. The light will turn solid blue with occasional flash once connected. Up and down buttons on the side change your song, long pressing them changes the volume. Play/Pause button does what you’d think it would. Once paired, from my experience as long as bluetooth is turned on it pairs within seconds.

5.0 out of 5 starsGreat value
March 11, 2019
Color: BlackVerified Purchase
This device does what it says for a very reasonable price. Sound quality is excellent, as good as the FM radio; I haven't A/B tested it with a wired connection so can't comment on that. Normally wired is noticeably better than bluetooth and I'd expect this to be the same. But with the background noise of a car it's really not relevant, and the convenience of wireless far outweighs any loss of quality. I can just turn on this device, the phone links to it immediately with a little warble sound notification, and start playing from the phone. Couldn't ask for more! When using the device's built-in microphone, the person I called said it's a bit muffled, but that may be due to the location - the aux jack on my car is low down, near the shift lever, quite a distance from my face. The device comes with a lead so I could easily stick it somewhere closer and use the lead to connect to the jack, but I don't use the phone enough to make it worthwhile. It takes a micro-usb cord for recharging, the same as my phone, so is easy to recharge in the car. I've used it intermittently for a few weeks now and it hasn't needed a recharge yet. My only minor niggle is that the on/off slide switch is small and it's hard to see whether it's turned on. I try to remember to turn it off when I stop the car but sometimes forget. The device does turn itself off after a while, but the switch is mechanical, so you have to slide it off and back on to turn it on again. Hardly a burden!
