Nulaxy Bluetooth 5.0 FM Transmitter for Car, QC3.0 & USB-C PD 18W Wireless Bluetooth Radio Adapter Music Player Car Kit with Bass Booster, Hands-Free Calls-NX12

This item is working wonderfully in an older car with an older audio system to access any music or programming from your phone app. The sound is better. The setup was easy. The only drawback is that this is not an ideal hands off system while driving as you have to control any station changes by looking at your phone and doing it. I have yet to try the phone answering part of this device.

This is the only FM transmitter that has a built in bass boost. It doesn't have any pointless lights or trinkets. It has impeccable sound quality and is small and simple designed. This has been my go to for a long time. My last one lasted about 6 years with daily use and finally broke due to age and weather. Im positive this one will last as long. The sound quality through my speakers had improved with this one and I dont get interference from other vehicles. The price point and quality is top notch.

Going into a 2003 C5 Corvette. The good: the setup was very easy, worked as advertised, very happy with the sound quality, all good. The bad, maybe: once inserted into the cigarette lighter socket, I cannot get it out to save my life (so far.) The power is on to my cigarette lighter when the key is off. This adapter will be pull back far enough to break contact and hopefully stay that way, hoping to not drain the battery. The door over the cigarette lighter will not close with this adapter inserted; it would be great to remove it and store it in the console when not in use. Still pulling....

Works well, no static at all once you find the correct station. Easy to Setup and Bluetooth connects automatically. Good sound at a good price.

DesignThe device is lightweight and made of plastic. It feels solid enough, but definitely on the lighter side. The front display is easy to read when plugged into your vehicle’s cigarette lighter adapter. The knob on the telephone button rotates easily too. The only thing that may be an issue for some people is the recharging USB ports, whether QC 3.0 or the PD USB-C, is it is on the bottom or underside of the device. See the product photos and make sure this one be an issue for you.SetupOnce plugged in the device boots up within a second or to. The small display states “bt” and you know you can now pair your device. It was very easy to do on my iPhone XS. Simply went to settings, then Bluetooth, and then connected to “NX12”. Done and it was paired. To find an FM station, it was easy to change the frequency. Simply press the “channel” button on the front, rotate the knob with the telephone symbol on it to the frequency, press “channel” again and done.Tip: If you rarely or never use the FM radio anymore, consider removing the exterior antenna on your vehicle. Mine was easy to remove by counterclockwise unscrewing the base of the antenna from the hood of my vehicle. Consult with your owner’s manual first though or go on YouTube to see how to remove your antenna. By doing so it really limits outside radio stations from interfering with your Nulaxy FM transmitter.Sound QualityThe music and audio books played were crystal clear. No issues what so ever. I kept my volume at about 85% on my iPhone and made sure the equalizers were set to natural or neutral. I adjusted the volume on the stereo as well as the equalizer.USB-A and C chargingThe USB charging ports, as mentioned earlier, are on the bottom or “underside” of the device. It will not be as easy to plug cable in if you cannot focus completely on the device. My outlet is below the stereo so I plug in the device horizontally. I have to reach underneath to plug in a charging cable or remove the device entirely. This is probably the only downside. To overcome this simply keep a cable plugged in at all times gets around this issue. I imagine this will vary by vehicle and user. It is not a deal breaker for me though. Having QC 3.0 and a USB-C PD is awesome and worth it.ConclusionI would recommend getting this device if you are 1) needing a compact Bluetooth FM transmitter, 2) need QC 3.0 capabilities and/or 3) need a USB-C PD charging port for your device. Since you are already looking at this review I suspect you already need a FM transmitter. In that case give the Nulaxy Bluetooth FM Transmitter a go. The features are great, easy to use, and the cost is reasonable.

These devices all connect fast and function reasonably well. I like the downward location of the charger plug (specifically for the 2004 Rav4), because the power outlet is directly in front of the gear shift knob (manuel), and this allows the charge cable to not interfere with gear changes.

The media could not be loaded. Excellent product! I finally decided to upgrade to a new bluetooth device since my last one wasn’t connecting properly. It was easy to set up and I feel like it will last me a good while. What I love the most is be ability to use my usb-c cord to charge my iPhone. The size of product also the clarity of the music and the calls I make are perfect. Definitely worth the price.

So I bought this for my pre Bluetooth smart van. So far so good. I connected an iPhone 11 and a Google pixel 2XL (not at the same time) to the device. Pairing was very easy. When it's not connected... It's looking to pair to a device. This is important to remember if you have a vehicle that has a constant power cigarette plug. If you leave it plugged into one of those outlets... You could very well drain your battery. So check your outlets.Aesthetically, looks pretty cool. The button for the phone calls, push and hold it down and it will engage either siri or Google assistant depending on your phone.QC 3.0 - looks to work fine as my pixel 2xl was "charing rapidly" or whatever you call it. Didn't get a chance to try the pd charger / usbc outlet.Music usb port - nice feature but not needed for my case as I stream most of my music.Nice to have it be apart of the radio. I can just tune to that frequency when I need to have a phone call/stream music and I'm right back to the radio stations or other when done.This isn't my first fm transmitter, but I will say sound and calls come through clearly. Obviously depends on the quality of your station.When tuning the fm transmitter is definitely looking. When I was getting to the station you could audibly hear when the white noise disappeared from the radio, meaning the transmitter is on the frequency.Overall, solid product. Would buy again if needed.
