Works with iPhone 4
By Amazon User
I like this device:
Nice:
- Cheap FM Transmitter
- Phone Charger
- Phone Holder
- Can be used with other devices
- Tested on iPhone 4 - like a charm
- and best of all, all at the same time - yes, you can charge and listen to music at the same time!
Cons:
-The stick to hold it is short, on my 95 camry, it had hard time using it and its pushing against my dashboard
- shakes a lot while driving
- seems to inter fer with Google maps GPS - the maps work, but the orientations easily gets out of sync, and keeps saying move the device in the figure (8) motion
- i used it with MapQuest - MapQuest did not seem to interfere - so not sure if its Google Maps, or the iPhone
- FM Transmitter is weak - it works, but not loud, and does not have much power. While driving during the city, about 90% of the time its clear, and maybe 10% or so not clear (has static) - so its not bad, unless you like your music flawless
- I dont think the holder will last - it looks cheap - but so far its holding, lets see for how long
- I think this is an iPhone issue, but I cannot hear the calls on the speaker - so its problematic if you need to remove it from the holder each time
- With a case on the iPhone4, its fit is tight in the holder
Trick to use it to charge and listen at the same time:
- Do not use the extra cable from the iPhone to the device, only use the charge cable!
- place the music on speaker mode, the connect the charge cable - and you are done - it charges AND music works from the same cable!
If you keep the extra cable on the top, the you wont hear a thing!
Why 4 star:
- static FM, not very loud voice
- cannot hear the calls on FM while driving (maybe an iPhone issue, not the device issue)
- cheap holder and stick very short

Simply does what it's supposed to do..
By Butch Davis
I ordered this FM transmitter for my iPhone 16GB 3G on a whim.. I had no really high expectations because of the low price, which is how I typically approach items like this.. It arrived rather quickly in a plain white box.. So, maybe they saved some money on packaging.. I immediately took the unit to my car, plugged it in, dropped the iPhone into the base and cranked it up.. I had some pretty bad static at first, but then while toying with the 3.5mm stereo cable that comes with it, found that you don't even need to use the stereo cable!! Once I ditched the 3.5mm cable, the sound was crisp and clear.. According to the instructions, there should be an LED on the actual lighter plug when the unit is plugged in and working, but mine doesn't work.. I couldn't care less about that, because the unit does exactly what it's supposed to do, and I no longer have to worry about burning CDs so I can jam while I'm zipping down I-95 at 95mph.. Heheh.. The adjustable arm holds its position pretty well, which is a major plus.. I've seen similar units go for a LOT more than this one, and honestly, I have no idea how they could be any better.. The best part is that not only does this thing allow you to use your iPhone/iPod through your car stereo, it also charges you iPhone/iPod while you're it's all hooked up.. One thing I did to make sure I didn't receive any interference from local radio stations was to just take the antenna off of my car..

Exceeds expectations so far
By Minor Fifth
I bought this to replace my Griffin iTrip after it shorted out. I was worried about buying a different brand (or a non-brand, as a case seems to be), since the Griffin is able to be set to international frequencies (and I was never able to receive a clear signal without setting it below 88.1).
So far, however, the signal has been A LOT clearer at 88.1 than it ever was on my old transmitter. I live in Phoenix and I've had no trouble with signal interruptions so far; I even get a clear sound in parking garages and around strongly broadcast signals, like in shopping center parking lots. The sound quality is also pretty decent for an FM transmitter, especially one that cost less than $20 to buy and ship. I also love the cradle and the flexible neck that allows me to dock my iPod within easy reach.
The remote seems to be a bust, but I don't really care as I can't see a reason to use a remote when my iPod is docked right in front of me. Your mileage may vary, I suppose. And for all I know this might short out in a few months just like my Griffin did, but I'm holding out hope!
