    Being able to play my music through my car's radio is something that I absolutely need when I'm driving, but my car doesn't have any option built-in that makes this possible. All it has is a cigarette lighter, and thankfully that's all I need for this FM transmitter to work. I can use it to play my music, answer calls, and charge my phone. The only issue I have with it is an important one, unfortunately.

    Setting up this transmitter is very easy. You plug it in and it's ready to go. Syncing it via bluetooth is easy to do, but I liked that this also has options for USB connections (for charging) and an AUX port if you want to play music without bluetooth. The display can be turned and adjusted to be easily viewed by the driver or passenger, but I did notice that when driving it was difficult to get an ideal angle, as the display was always either slightly too low, or even turned upside down. I was able to get it at an angle where I could see it well enough, but it took quite a bit of fiddling.

    My only real issue with this transmitter is the audio quality. Making and receiving calls was fine, as the quality of the voices wasn't a major concern. But when listening to music, I noticed multiple times that the quality was sub-par and clearly not as good as I would like. It was so noticeable that it really affected how likely I was to listen to my music with this transmitter, as opposed to just switching to the radio instead. I wish the quality was better, as other than that this device really does everything right. Sadly, audio quality is very important when playing your music over your car radio.
