I bought it two days ago to connect it to the (mediocre factory) audio system of a BMW 3 Series (E90).
It was installed in the compartment under the armrest with a permanent power supply from the car's relevant USB port, as shown in the photo.
I am only interested in listening to music, and I have no experience with open listening systems, nor am I interested in them, so for those who are concerned, I should mention that even though it is closed inside the compartment during a call, they could hear me and I could hear them normally, but I cannot contribute anything more to the discussion.
It opens and closes automatically with the engine's operation and is powered/charged only when the engine is running (in any case, the car cuts off power supply when the engine is not running).
It connected immediately to the iPhone and after the initial connection, it automatically connects as soon as the engine starts.
I did not notice a low volume level, as mentioned in other posts, the volume is normal assuming it is set relatively high on the phone, definitely above 50%, around 80% in my case. This also has to do with the pre-amplification level of the auxiliary line-in input of the audio system (in the BMW, it is adjustable from 0 to 5, around 4 seems to have the best results).
As for the sound quality, I will reserve judgment because, as I mentioned earlier, the sound of the audio system is generally mediocre.
Therefore, it only makes sense to compare it with other sound sources.
It is used for playing lossless FLAC files that are either on the phone or come from a streaming service (Tidal) with the option to select lossless formats.
The sound quality is definitely better than the radio (expected, as all stations broadcast heavily compressed music) and equally good as CD playback.
So the conclusion is that the sound is perfectly satisfactory, with the small reservation of impressions from a better and more expensive audio system, but it does not seem to fall short.
As for its durability over time, obviously I have no opinion after two days, it will show in the future.
In conclusion, given that the sound is good and that after the connection-installation, I no longer need to deal with it, I consider it an excellent purchase.
(For those interested, a few additional things about sound quality. We must not forget that a connection via the auxiliary line-in is a classic analog connection and, like anything related to analog sound, it is directly dependent on the quality of the hardware. I do not imagine anyone expecting the relevant line-in circuit of the car's audio system to be a standard of quality, especially for a cheap factory audio system. This check can be done by connecting the source directly to the aux-in using a cable, for example, from the headphone output, without the intervention of Bluetooth, and see what sound quality it produces. As for this specific Bluetooth, safer conclusions can be drawn if one uses a cable from mini jack to two RCA and connects it to a line-in input of a home audio amplifier and evaluates the sound quality there.) I tried it on my own, either by directly connecting an older iPhone with headphone output to a mini jack, through a cable to the amplifier, or through Bluetooth, where no significant difference was observed in the result, which is a positive fact. Obviously, the above also answers the question of how easily we can connect our mobile phone to the home sound system.
Update: The good impressions about sound quality were confirmed today after replacing the factory speakers with higher quality ones. This specific Bluetooth indeed provides decent sound.

  Good sound overall. Fast connection.
  At first, the battery lasted longer, I can't say it had a long duration! Until suddenly it doesn't charge... I connect it normally to the charger and nothing... Until it ran out of battery!

  It works fine so far. It needs a little attention because the mini-jack adapter can easily be "hit", but overall it works perfectly.

  I wonder how I didn't have it all these years.
  The battery holds up relatively well as the device turns off shortly after not being used.
  And the sound is great, I sound great from the microphone it has despite the distance.

  It does its job.. one out of ten times you will need to close it and open it again, after you have put the car in gear but the phone has not connected automatically.. also sometimes (rarely) it plays very slowly and requires a restart to return to normal.. (all these with an old but expensive alpine)

  I have had this product for about a month and I am very satisfied.
  It fits perfectly in my car, it is reliable, and it connects easily and quickly.
  The only issue is that when it is turned off, it does not automatically disconnect from my phone, maybe because I have an iPhone.
  So, when I am on a call and I turn off the car, which means it is deactivated along with the device, the call does not transfer back to the phone.
  Other than that, it is excellent and definitely value for money

  I have had the product for over 2 months and I use it daily in the car. I am very satisfied. It has a very good microphone, it does not lose signal even if you move away from the car. I have not encountered any problems. I also chose the corresponding cable from the same company to connect it to the aux and it has very good quality. I highly recommend it.

  For its price, it's excellent! I mainly use it in the car to connect my phone and listen to music through Bluetooth, and secondarily to answer phone calls. Although the sound is very good and clear, it is somewhat low, especially when I use it to talk on the phone. I would like it to sound a little louder during calls. I highly recommend it though, because it really makes things easier and is worth every euro!

  The main problem is that you have to increase the volume of the car audio system a lot in order to hear the calls (mainly for this reason I bought it). The positive thing is that my callers can hear me, but the car mount is positioned high in my car. Simple to connect and operate. Good sound quality if used for music. Overall, satisfactory for its price.

  Very good
  Quality
  It also has a cable if you want to use it, the plug comes out
  Easy connection with mobile
  You can hear and be heard loudly and clearly
  Fast and clear song playback

  Negatives (?)
  When it is connected to the application and playing music and you receive a call, you have to close the application to speak,
  and the charging port takes old charging cables - with the teeth

  In my opinion, download songs to your mobile from circulating applications, so you won't need the internet

  Connected to Alpine CDE-201R

  I recommend it and give it 5 stars

  After three months, I can say that it's great. I connect it to the jack port of my car stereo, select AUX, and it immediately connects to my phone via Bluetooth. So far, it does what it says.

  Yesterday I just received the product... it turned out to be a bad choice... this Bluetooth greatly affects the sound quality... as it connects to the aux, this Bluetooth and with a simple cable to the phone, you have much better sound quality!!! Wrong...

  The sound works fine, rarely needing to reconnect Bluetooth because it freezes and disconnects. I have it permanently connected to the car socket, it draws power only when the electrical system is turned on + it turns on and connects automatically when it detects power. Unfortunately, it doesn't always turn off automatically when the car is turned off and you have to close it with the button. The microphone is okay from what I understand, I have made 2-3 calls and they could hear me.

  I bought it mainly to listen to music from my phone in the car and in that aspect, it does an EXCELLENT job. The 3 buttons (play/pause, volume up, volume down) are convenient and it is easy to connect. The battery is its great advantage. On the other hand, for talking, well, it could be better. The person you are talking to doesn't hear you very well...

  Very good, I have it permanently connected and it has been a lifesaver for me for months. Unfortunately, due to my own stupidity, the AUX adapter got messed up and now I have it with a cable under the dashboard, so the microphone is now useless.

  It doesn't pair well with iPhones and some other mobile phones, so my friends have tried to connect but failed. However, I have never had any issues with my own devices.

  It is quite good at refreshing an old car. It does not offer Android Auto or Apple CarPlay, but it definitely works very well in the Aux port.

  Inside the box, it has the Bluetooth adapter with a 3.5mm jack to 3.5mm jack, a 3.5mm jack cable, and a micro USB for charging.

  The battery lasts about 8 hours depending on how loud the sound is from the phone. In general, you want to have the multimedia sound from the phone at maximum volume so that you can adjust the sound from the radio and not from the phone. You can have it connected to the power through USB and use it, which is very good because the battery will eventually drain from use. Charging with a Samsung and Anker 25W charger takes half an hour from completely empty to 100%.

  The Bluetooth connection is immediate and without any later interruptions or interference.

  The only slightly negative aspect is that the built-in microphone, although it has good reception and clear sound, has a low volume. To the point where you have to raise your voice a little, not because of the surrounding noise, but because we hear you as if you are far away.

  vfm. It does exactly what I bought it for. It connects to the car and I can listen to music from my phone. The only negative thing is that it doesn't receive power directly from the audio jack and it needs to be charged through the USB port. Personally, I always have it connected to both the jack and the USB.

  This review is about a variation of the product

  In general, very satisfactory. Small, lightweight, and discreet. It charges relatively quickly and its battery (180mAh) holds up quite well. In standby mode only, it needs to be charged approximately every week. With use for speaking on calls, averaging two hours per day, it needs to be charged every 4-5 days. Personally, I use it to convert wired hands-free headphones into wireless Bluetooth ones, so I don't have to carry my mobile phone with me. It has a very good range, pairing with the mobile phone was immediate without any issues, and the connection is automatic every time without any problems. The sound quality for both music playback and calls is more than satisfactory. Clear and powerful. Its microphone is strong without distortions. The caller can hear well, even if I have it in my pocket. Also, the voice wake-up function of the mobile assistant (Samsung Bixby) works.

  As for the negatives, hence the 4-star rating, the buttons are particularly sensitive. They require very gentle movements, otherwise they execute completely different commands. For example, you may press the middle button for 3 seconds to turn off the device, but it may activate the multimedia or change the radio station. If it is turned off, it is difficult to turn it back on, it requires another gentle press of the middle button. Overall, it falls short in this aspect. Additionally, sometimes the microphone doesn't receive well, so either the caller won't hear clearly or the voice commands won't work. However, I don't take this into much consideration as it may not be solely the device's fault, but various external factors.

  In conclusion, it is a pretty good device, worth its price and recommended.

  Immediate finding and connection with the mobile without interruptions. Simply, the new version (70304) requires power on, as well as power off for shutdown, which I personally consider correct for the protection of the device during startup or engine shutdown. Very good sound of music from mobile files, YouTube, Spotify, etc. Excellent sound quality for phone calls (you hear and are heard perfectly). You answer calls (in open listening) by simply pressing the multifunction button once, and you close them with another press, which for me means convenience and road safety. It only requires a slight increase in volume (either from the car stereo or from the mobile or a combination). A very good solution for old car stereos that do not have Bluetooth or even a USB input, but only a CD player. Very satisfied.

  After a lot of searching and reading reviews, I bought this. Well, I connected it to the car's aux and it's perfect. The Bluetooth is value for money and it's flawless after a month of use. It sounds great through the car speakers and of course, I make calls from my phone and my callers can hear me very well. I also listen to music from my phone through the car speakers. It connects immediately and without any interruptions. All functions, of course, are controlled from the phone.

  Very very good sound for listening to music, I didn't expect it to be like this, but it lacks in speech, when you have a slope, they just hear you in the background. It may also be because the aux in my car is next to the gear lever. Anyway, for the 16€ I bought them, it's value for money.

  This little gadget is perfect for cars that don't have Bluetooth. Although I don't have any experience with other similar devices, its sound is very good when listening to music, especially if you're listening to files of better quality than mp3, like flac audio. I haven't tried using it to make phone calls yet, as what interested me was listening to music.
