http://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B01BGTKCH4?ref_=cm_cr_ryp_prd_ttl_sol_0I've been living with the Realmax for a week now and I have a good feel for how practical a Bluetooth device this is. As a baseline for this review I’m using the Realmax in conjunction with a Pebble smartwatch and an Iphone4s.Bluetooth Pairing:This is painless, just insert the Realmax into your car 12v power point and turn on the cars’ power. Then enable Bluetooth on your phone and select the detected device from the list for pairing. For IPhone users out there I’ve had no issue with pairing the Realmax and a smartphone (Pebble) at the same time. The communication between the IPhone and Pebble is unaffected. The Pebble does not have sound so I cannot comment on how sound would be routed between a Realmax and a sound enabled smartphone.Radio Pairing:This too is painless, this is as simple as the supplier has stated! You press the M button on the Realmax, you then see the current frequency displayed on the Realmax LCD display. Using the << >> buttons you select a frequency that suits you and your area, the last frequency selected is the one that is AutoSaved to the Realmax. If you are able to save radio stations on a car radio then select a free station on your radio, you will then tune that station to the frequency of the Realmax, you’re done, it’s that simple. *note – don’t forget to save/store the car radio station otherwise it will be lost and have to tune your car radio to the Realmax over again.Using the Realmax:I have the Realmax frequency stored in my cars’ radio station 6. I have my favourite radio station stored in radio station 1, to switch between the two I press the relevant car radio station number. I do leave my Realmax in my car, it’s permanently plugged in as the 12v power is cut when I take my car key out of the ignition. When I turn on the car engine the Realmax powers up and informs me Bluetooth is ready for paring. As my IPhone is already paired with the Realmax and after about 2 seconds the Realmax informs me it’s paired. *note – It may sound obvious but to hear sound at this point you need to be tuned into the frequency of the Realmax (for me this is selecting stored radio station 6).This is where the fun begins, if I want to listen to the CD or the radio in my car I would select the required option, now, if I want to listen to my IPhone I select radio and stored station 6. Realmax will now play music from my IPhone through the car sound system. As a standard in car phone kit Realmax can answer a call by pressing the round button on the Realmax, you can also redial the last number dialled by a double press of the same round button and you can, to an extent, adjust volume using the same button. Regarding my setup the ‘value add’ comes from when you integrate Realmax, using the Realmax in conjunction with Siri voice command and a smart phone you get a true hands free car experience.Sound Quality:The main issue you will have in the setup of the Realmax is finding the right radio frequency for you and your area, get this wrong and radio interference will distort the sound, you will get real radio station fade and crackle sounds. Get the right frequency and the sound is great, it took me a few goes to get this nailed on but now I’m there the sound reproduction is as good as the original. This will be the same impact whether it’s music playback or a phone call.As a standard car phone through Realmax I can hear the caller through my car sound system just fine, loud and clear (subject to the frequency comment above) and I can adjust the call volume using the car radio volume controls. The Mic works surprisingly well, too. Realmax is much better than the Bluetooth kit I had previously and it’s as good as my wifes’ built in car phone.Build and service quality:The Realmax product itself seems to be built to a good standard, it seems robust enough. I’ve only had the product a week so I cannot say more than that at this point, time will tell! Delivery was quick, the packaging was fit for purpose and the product description was not misleading from my perspective, it descried the product well.

Works great and is great value!
I was very dubious that this product would work due to its low price, however it arrived this morning and was up and running in 5 minutes. I have it paired to my apple iPhone 5s and it works a treat. I have also tried to play music from my iTunes on my phone and this was good too. Have not tried the sd card to play music yet as I do not have any music on a card at the moment but will update review if I do. The product came on time and was well packaged. The product is well designed and looks cool in the car. I would recommend this product to anyone looking for a good value for money Bluetooth solution for their car.

Faulty and poor options
ProsCheap, plays with foldersConsAux output didn’t work at allPoor screening so picked up RF noise from the car (clicking)Very short stem so couldn’t orient properly, would only sit sideways or upside down.Minimal control options, not even a shuffle mode.When using FM, no track data sent to car Radio.Not worth the effort of sending back but generally I would recommend looking elsewhere for a car MP3 player. I haven’t tested the phone option yet but it won’t be in the car for long.

Good solution to hands free and listening to music on my phone
Just received this product, I looked at similar ones but I thought I would try this, there were no reviews though, but it was slightly cheaper than the other similar products and was free delivery. I ordered it on Thursday evening and it arrived on Saturday morning which was a bonus. I used it in my car immediately to test it out. I am very pleased with it, works well, transmits through the radio so now I can listen to my music that is on my phone and I can take phone calls without having to use my headset. It is cheap solution which works and means that I will no longer need to change my stereo to a Bluetooth one which would have cost me significantly more.

On ne peut mettre 0 étoiles. A fuir, je ne sais pas si on peux le rendre.
