The Wire-Free Car Upgrade I Didn’t Know I Needed
This little gadget transformed my car’s system. No more fumbling with cables or digging my phone out every time – it connects automatically within seconds of starting the engine. CarPlay and Android Auto both work smoothly.It’s genuinely plug-and-play – I was half expecting to need an IT degree to set it up, but it worked right out of the box. Audio, navigation, and messaging all function without lag.Now my only complaint is that I have no excuse for ignoring texts at red lights. If this untangled your decision-making, give “Helpful” a tap.

Works well, relatively unobtrusive
This product works as well for me as the built in wireless android auto in my previous car (VAG group). (Have had one disconnect so far, but was able to reconnect immediately - I think that's as much the software in the head unit, as that happened from time to time with built in wireless on my previous vehicle)Item is straightforward to setup, but may require forgetting your Bluetooth connection to your car (if you had already setup) as now your Bluetooth connection needs to be to this device.Item is quite compact (smaller than and half the thickness of a matchbox) and comes with a sticky strip to fix it in place if required. It does have a relatively bright status LED, but as long as it's not in direct line of sight, it should not be distracting.Very happy with this product.

Unit ok, broken cable in box, zero support - buyer beware
Unit itself is ok but quality control and support is non existent. The USB A to C cable in the box does not work and seems to only have the charge pins and not the data pins connected. This is a manufacturing fault as other people have been supplied working cables so seems to be random as yo what you get. Emailed their support ([email protected] taken from amazon support page) twice (12th and 15th May and no reply) and even fed back via amazon support survey they did not respond. Still nothing.So if they are supplying units with cables that do not work then I cannot recommend. Ended up having to pay £15 for a 3rd party cable due to lack of quality control and zero support. This extra cost makes it way more expensive than other units on the market and gives me zero confidence if the unit develops an issue. They do not honour their warranty. Such a shame they take you money and run.Buyer beware!

Much better than v4.0
The v4.0 model was never happy with android to Volvo. Very unreliable and CarPlay to Volvo never even connected.V5.0 worked out of the box on both iPhone and android. Latency is much improved. Waze still has its problems which can be overcome by unplugging and re plugging the usb cable.

Carlink 2 Air wireless car play.
Very quick delivery. My second wireless car play device. The first was a different make and a nightmare to set up. Returned that and received a full refund.This was completely the opposite. Very easy to set up and works a treat.So impressed I gave it to my daughter for her car and bought a second.Early days but very happy so far.

Great product desperately let down by poor quality components.
This is one of those products which should be brilliant and have people ditching their cables for Android Auto in the car.For a time, it did exactly that for me....Unfortunately, this company seems to have taken the approach of thinking the marketing budget is more important than the development budget!So, what we are left with is a product that will work, but is not designed with enough robustness (better quality boards and soldering required) for an environment where it will have more demands placed upon it (a car) than a product that sits in a stable envornment (your home).That is why it worked perfectly for a few weeks, then a brief period of intermittant working before total failure!In short. Ignore the pictures, the claims and the recommendations from people reviewing this over a brief period of use. It is really not fit for the purpose for which it is designed.I rarely have to leave a review where I categorically advise people NOT to buy a product, but this is one of those times.

Stopped working after a few days
The initial connection to BlueTooth in my Hyundai i10 went smoothly. Its a compact size, and fits in the phone tray. CarPlay connected pretty quickly, although the audio was a bit glitchy, but seemed to settly down. After a couple of days, it kept disconnecting, and reconnecting, until it didn't reconnect.I forgot the deviece in BlueTooth, and CarPlay settings. It then decided not to connect to BlueTooth. I tried connecting to its IP address to see if there were any settings I could change, but that didn't work either. Had to send it back.

Great product
Ordered and received on the same day. Fantastic service. I bought this as my carlinkit 3.0 stopped working. This version is a lot faster than the 3.0 no issues at this time like I had with the 3.0 5 stars all the way. Its made well I use it for Android, I have not tried IOS yet but hoping to within the next few days. And for the price I got it for at the time was a steal. Works well with my S22 ultra. And my wife's android phone which is about 10 years old.
