3 Stars Not the best but OK
First one I received wasn’t working so I requested replacement and got it ok. The problem of the first unit was it’s making strange noises as ‘T. Bickle’ mentioned below but even without iPhone hooked up, also it didn’t charge iPhone. The second unit I received does charge ok, however, it still has that weird hissing noise, luckly it’s pretty much diminished than the first one. Other than that it’s working fine, no beeping, haven’t had a chance to use it as handsfree function. At this price, it was $20.93 which I puchased, I think it’s ok, hence 3 stars.
ps. Since I didn’t have to return the first defected unit, I disassembled it hoping to find the source of noise. Even though I couldn’t find any direct cause, blame my ignorance in electric, it didn’t have any shield in any parts.
5 Stars where is the Beeping sound?
I had this ikit for about 3 weeks I can say this is one of my best buy for the iPhone accessories, it worth every penny. Sounds Come out from FM are very clear and Really didn’t heard any Beeping sounds, maybe they Fixed the problem for it I don’t know but so far I like it a lot. It charge my 3G iPhone and Transmit music to FM in the same time and it also come with the telephone hands-free function, for the price like this, I am going to just buy one more for my sister for her coming birthday.
Edit**
Just to clarify the model I bought is “Mediagate iKIT V2″ I am not sure if this is the one, cus I know my friend actually got the fake one from different company which the quality are totally mess up, this is a great product but just make sure ask the seller before you buy to check if is the right model, I heard the V3 is coming out soon which is improve 3G iphone charging speed, so I might get a new one once it is out.
4 Stars Not bad
Use this with my iPhone 3g. When you plug it in the iPhone asks you if you want to run in ‘airplane mode’. I get a lot of interference locally and its difficult to find a clear band. Although I get no beep I do get a sweeping frequency filtering effect every few minutes. Its as if the power cable is unshielded. If I use the iPhone with the audio cable and don’t plug in the transmitter cable I get no sweeping effect and a better and clearer sound. I do need to crank up the volume in this mode however. It does charge my iPhone when plugged in and the mount is perfect for my Honda Accord. It makes using the GPS much easier. All in all at this price I’d by it again.
