4 Star Review Bluetooth Speaker Phone for Your Car

Strengths:

Product is small; easy to configure; stylish; easy to use

Weaknesses:

The only problem I've encountered is that I have to switch between two bluetooth devices w/my phone -- the speaker phone in the car, and an earpiece while walking around.

Posted 1 year ago - When you are "pairing" (coupling) this device to your phone and the step calls out for the "code" to insert, the T505 actually SPEAKS the code to you, so you can enter it in your phone. Very cool. No searching the fine print for the code. I was able to get the T505 up and running very quickly. One thing I was surprised at is that there is no "wall charger" -- only a "car charger" (it goes in the cigarette lighter outlet). I guess that's natural -- this device should stay in the car. But the good news is that the T505 comes fully charged in the box, so you can pair it up and have it working immediately. That said, the manual says it takes FIVE HOURS to fully charge up. I don't know when I'll EVER be in my car for that amount of time with the engine on .... esp. with gas at $5 a gallon. But the T505 is the real deal -- it's compact, it works, and it's easy to use.

5 Star Review Great Little Piece of Tech

Strengths:

Everything

Weaknesses:

None

Posted 1 year ago - This little bluetooth gadget is simply awesome and amazing. Great noise cancellation during phone calls and great mp3 streaming to the car stereo from my N95 handset. I love it and wish I had ordered one sooner. By the way, these are 139.00 at Best Buy. This unit is RETAIL, in plastic with all acessories and operations manual. Order it, you won't be dissapointed!

4 Star Review MOT T505

Strengths:

When adjusted just right it works great. Almost perfect answer to driving hands free. Much better than the 3 bluetooth ear units that I have tried.

Weaknesses:

Volume control is tricky. Too low they hear fine but I can't. Too loud I hear but it breaks up on their end.

Posted 1 year ago - Had the 501 model before, but it was stolen. This model seems to be a little harder to adjust just right. I am now using the unit by doing the extra steps to set up to play through radio which seems to work well for both parties.

5 Star Review Motorola T505 Speakerphone

Strengths:

It is very clear and works well with the LG Dare.

Weaknesses:

Has no wall charger. Playing as a phone through the car speakers it is really clear. The fact that it only stays on for 10 minutes at a time while in standby mode is a minus.

Posted 1 year ago - I have had the T505 for 3 months now. When I first bought it I wanted to use it with my Samsung SCH-U740. It paired up quickly however it would only work as a Bluetooth Speakerphone and the music features would not work. Playing as a phone through the car speakers it is really clear. The fact that it only stays on for 10 minutes at a time while in standby mode is a minus. Unless you know you have an incoming call you would not be able to use the stereo speakers. This I presume is done to conserve the battery and does not affect the playing of music (see more comments). The T505 speaker is very adequate on its own. I just recently upgraded my phone to the new Verizon LG Dare the phone again paired up easily and not only this time worked as a speakerphone but also the music capabilities worked as well. It does play your music through the speakers without shutting off after 10 minutes not like when the phone is being used in standby. The T505 has beautiful hands free features such as hands free dialing and many other voice features that are hands free with the Dare. The charger that is included with the T505 plugs into the car and is totally inadequate as you can not drive around with the T505 on you visor charging with a cord hanging down. I will say once the T505 is charged it goes forever. I just ended up buying a charger on eBay for $3.95 including S&H after finding out through numerous emails and phone calls to Motorola which one would work. I think for the price they should include a wall charger. Overall I have to give the T505 5 Stars and defiantly would recommend this to anyone.

4 Star Review Good product for a treo 650

Strengths:

Pairs easy with my Treo 650! People can hear me with limited background noise. Capable of transmitting through FM to take advantage of car audio for more power

Weaknesses:

Difficulty setting FM station preset.

Posted 1 year ago - I've had the hardest time finding a bluetooth headset that sounds clear to the people I am talking to. I am not much of a bluetooth headset person, so this speakerphone for the car is great. It pairs easy, has the FM transmitter feature which is nice but hasn't worked great for me. I did not get this to listen to music from my phone so I did not try it. I purchased two more.

4 Star Review Worth the money

Strengths:

speaker sound, clarity, ease of use

Weaknesses:

sometimes some echoing when talking

Posted Mar 10, 2008 - this is a great product. I am not one to use a bluetooth in the ear so this is a tremendous substitute. Product is easy to install and paired up easily with my LG phone. Worth the money! Love it so much I am purchasing another for my wife.

4 Star Review Good deal for the price

Strengths:

versatile, long battery life

Weaknesses:

none so far

Posted 1 year ago - wanted to get rid of my BT earpiece; this unit works very well. I found that using it thru my car radio wasn't as convenient as I thought; I was never sure if it was working when I wasn't listening to the radio. However using it in speaker mode works just fine. Volume is adequate, and the listener seems to hear well, even with my driver's window down.Goes a week or more between charges. If you're tired of wearing that damned earpiece, check this out. Good deal for the price.

5 Star Review I'm very satisfied

Strengths:

Battery life seems endless. The bluetooth FM transmission through my car stereo makes it seem like the caller is there with me in the car. Bluetooth streaming of mp3s also sounds good.

Weaknesses:

To turn the unit on or off, you have to hold the power button for a few seconds. I'd rather just press the button once. If you are listening to streaming mp3s via bluetooth FM through the car stereo w

Posted 1 year ago - I like how the buttons on the side of the unit work to advance to the next or previous song on my my3 player. My callers can hear and understand me, even when the wind noise outside is loud. The bluetooth synch is excellent. I like how it turns itself off after 15 minutes without bluetooth signal, useful when I get out of my car and don't always remember to turn it off. I've tried other bluetooth ear pieces, and often I couldn't understand the caller and the caller would ask me to repeat myself...never a problem with this unit. I tried the unit partially based on the Motorola brand name, and I'm very pleased that I did. Others that have seen and heard it work in my car were also impressed by the quality and functionality of the unit. Finally, I have the bluetooth device for my cell phone that I can use in my car that works and is a pleasant experience to use.

1 Star Review MOTOROKR T505 review

Strengths:

None

Weaknesses:

Will not play my music from my IPHONE as advertized. Will not stay paired with my IPHONE, I have to unpair and pair it every time I use it

Posted 1 year ago - This device does not live up to its advertizing. It will not stay paired, and will not play my music through the radio. It claims to be compatible with all bluetooth phones and media phones, but in reality, per Motorola, it only will work with Motorola phones. I wish I had not purchased this product, it sits in my glove box now.

2 Star Review Motorokor T505

Strengths:

Generally good voice quality out-bound; Car speaker quality on calls.

Weaknesses:

Connecting to FM station on incoming call

Posted 1 year ago - After testing for 3 weeks, I returned it. Primary problem was a constantly changing FM station synch that had to be located while driving. Fumbling with the FM radio station finder was more hazardous than just talking on the cellphone. Typically I couldn't synch in time to retrieve an incoming call. The device did not re-synch to "preferred stations" if driving out of immediate area - or the stations weren't usable out of immediate area.

2 Star Review It Works, but Not Recommended

Strengths:

Works as expected 80% of the time Battery life is good

Weaknesses:

Audio is mediocre. Difficult to tell when pairing is complete Voice recognition with phone has issues Battery operated Power on/off button is awkward due to delay. A device only an engineer would

Posted 3 months ago - Unless you are willing to spend some time with this device and get to know it's idiosyncrasies you're probably not going to be satisfied with it. Delayed start and audible beep can be confusing. In general, combination of blinking lights and audio feedback is not an effective user interface. When using the built-in speaker, listeners complained of a far off / cave like sound to my voice despite microphone placement. With the Nokia 6550, the first voice recognition beep is lost. Only on subsequent voice rec attempts with the initial voicerec ready beep be heard. I'm using it effectively now, but until I got used to it I'm sure I was more distracted by it than I ever was just speed dialing the phone and talking with one hand driving. This device has convinced me that the only good solution for a bluetooth speakerphone in a vehicle is an integrated one i.e. one where the vehicle manufacturer has spent time to engineer a complete solution. Because: - Speaker is integrated with vehicle speaker and audio system. - Microphone placement is optimized for the vehicle. - Battery is the car battery. - Feedback for voice recognition is immediate. - Push to talk button is on the steering column. Some of these features are available with more expensive speakerphone and installations, but hopefully at some point vehicle manufacturers will make this feature more common and less expensive.

Weaknesses:

Doesn't always pick-up voice command. Often have to repeat process

Posted 1 year ago - We bought one of these speakerphones and were so happy with it that we bought a second one for another or our vehicles. They are easy to use and have a very clear, audible speaker system. We recommended it to a relative who also purchased one.

3 Star Review MOTOROKR T505 Speakerphone

Strengths:

Easy to use.

Weaknesses:

People with whom I'm speaking say that I sound like I'm in an echo chamber!

Posted 1 year ago - I live in California so, as of 07/01/08, the law requires a hands free phone system while driving. Since I'm not in Sales the product works as advertised. However, if I was a Sales person I would have a better system installed.
