Motorola MOTOROKR T505 Bluetooth In-Car Speakerphone - 89149

The T505 is a good unit at a good price...Paid $59.99 for it. Needed a hands free system for my van because in NY a ticket for using a cellphone while driving will cost you $150 for the first offense. I repair appliances and am in and out of my van all day. The sound I hear is clear and plenty load enough...people on the other end say they can tell I'm on a speaker phone but I am load and clear. I only use it for incoming calls so I can't comment on other features. Setup was a breeze. It's great driving past the Police while talking on the phone...can't catch me! It does what I need it to do.

I love this product. I didn't purchase it from Buy.com (I wish I had,) but this product is so amazing. Not only can you broadcast from one station and others can tune in and listen (just don't be on a phone call,) but you can make calls, you can switch between songs, lower and raise the volume. I take it with me when I am walking sometime and it turns into a loudspeaker, no need for earbuds! I love this product and if you don't know, this is an excellent from what I paid for it. Try it, you will like it.

Best little device for the price. Operates exactly as I wanted and ease of set up and use was a pleasant surpise. The unit's speaker leaves a bit to be desired but its auto-announce FM radio station feature is more than adequate. Super for in-car, hands-free calling.

My wife purchased this for me. I had an IQUA UFO and this thing blows it away. The IQUA is headed for the trash. Very pleased with the performance. I really enjoy being able to her calls over the stereo speakers especially at highway speeds. I've had a couple of ear piece bluetooths but am not as pleased with them as I am with the Motorola T505.

Pros: Easy to use and setup, long battery life, good built-in microphone, memorizes your preferred FM stations. Cons: You have to turn it on and off, would be nice if it could sense if the car was running to turn on. Occasionally, statics require you to change channels multiple times before you can find a clear one. You can not specify the radio channels, the device chooses the channel for you. The built-in speaker is kind of useless as it is too weak. Overall, very good item if you have the need for a bluetooth speakerphone that connects to your vehicle radio system. Great for streaming media (if you use ORB on your handheld device) as well and playing MP3s in your car.

I bought these MOTOROKR T505s as gifts. I had purchased one for myself some time ago and have been very satisfied with the simplicity and ease of use. Good product. I would recommend.

Pairing my phone with the device was very easy. Sound quality on the speakerphone was better than expected. You can also take the call through your car's stereo system, which I found useful. If your phone is also a music player, then when you get a call, the music will lower and alert you to the caller's ID. Overall, great product.

Easy to set up. I do a lot of highway driving and in my Honda Odyessey, at speeds of 70 plus, it is hard for the person that I phone to hear me.

I read others reviews and took a leap of faith. Thanks to those of you who took the time to write a review. I bought the T505 and love it. It was purchased for my wife and in ten minutes I had it setup and she was off and running. The sound quality on both end of the calls are much better than using the phone in the standard way. Do it, Love it.

This product works wonderfully. I am slightly hearing impaired and this products allow me to turn up the volume as loud as I need it, through the vehicle speaker system. I struggle without it. I prefer to use this over my cell phone by itself. The clarity it very good. I have a more expensive bluetooth earpiece that is inferior to this product.

I bought the MOTOROKR T505 because I have a stick and wouldn't answer my cell phone when I was driving because the juggling act was too difficult - let alone that it is now a fine in my state to use a cell phone while driving. After reading research and reviews, I went with the T505 and what a great product! It sync-ed up with my LG phone without a problem, the sound is super - especially when using it through the radio - and the callers all say they can hear me as clear as a bell. I highly recommend the T505 - it is a great value, is easy to use, and is a lot cheaper than a ticket!

After practically throwing every bluetooth earpiece around my car when it fell or I couldn't hear, etc...I thought I try this one. WOW! This is great! I haven't used it for the FM transmitting yet, but for handsfree, you can't beat it. No one has any problems hearing me or me hearing them. A little touch will answer calls and you don't have to look around for the police while you are talking. If you hate charging up an earpiece or struggling with one....BUY THE MOTOROLA! The charge lasts a long time..I have only charged it twice in 3 weeks.

Motorola MOTOROKR T505 Bluetooth In-Car Speakerphone really gets the job done. The Bluetooth connection means there are no wires cluttering your car and the connection to my cell phone (a Blackberry Curve) is crystal clear. It's a little hard to understand the order you need to follow to make outbound or inbound calls, but once you get used to it, it's not bad. Occasionally, a local radio station will bleed over the speakerphone broadcast, but that can happen with any wireless handsfree headphone. This unit keeps a charge forever and charges up very quickly when needed. I highly recommend this. It gets the job done - easily, clearly and without a lot of hassle, since you simply clip it on the car's visor, instead of having to install it.

This thing works great! I bought it to go with my Nokia music express phone. After it arrived, I just chose "Add new device" in my phone's Bluetooth menu, then held down the power and call buttons until the LED "M" on the front flashed red. Music from my phone began to play from the built in speaker on the Motorokr. I hit the other button on the front of the device and paused the music. I held down the same button and, when a tone sounded, said "Home" to try out the voice dialing. An English sounding female voice said "Calling Fremp" When my friends wife "Bev" answered I quickly explained about the voice dialing. So that doesn't work too well. I took it out to my pickup and put it on the visor. I held down the FM button and the English chick said "92.5, 92.5". I set my truck's tuner and Mexican radio poured from my speakers. It tried again, and this time got Classical, one more time, and silence. I hit the "Pause" button on the unit, and the music resumed from my phone. On a recent 300 mile drive I had to change stations 4 times to escape the ubiquitous Mariachis, but other than that it plays well. Incoming calls are announced in the same indecypherable English voice, but you know somethings happening , so a spoken "Hello" usually is followed by a very clear conversation, either using the cars speakers or the built in one. Sometimes when I park I forget to turn it off, and then my belt starts playing music from my phone's external speaker when I get out of Bluetooth range, but that's my fault. When I return to the truck it pairs automatically if it's on, and quickly if it is not. All-in-all a pretty wonderful thing.

Applied for the Buy.com card and saved $30 with free shipping. Paid only $67 and the shipping was very fast (next day without the extra charge). I've tried a couple of speaker phones, but this one is the best one on the market. Very loud via the car stereo speakers or as a stand alone.

I bought this item a few weeks ago, and have been very glad that I made this purchase. I wear hearing aids, and have found it hard to find a bluetooth device that will give the sound or voice quality {not to mention FEEDBACK}, that I have found with this device. It has been great to use with the FM tuner. But, as with other comments that I have read, it will sometimes not hold the station and you have to keep re-setting. A small price for good quality. High recommenation!!!

Had tons of problems with hearing and background noise with bluetooth earpieces. This solves the problem and works great with the FM radio. I can also play MP3s on my car speakers through this. Highly recommend!

As with most of my Internet purchases I puckered when I ordered this item, wondering if it would be as amazing as most others thought. Since the unit came fully charged it didn't take long to alleviate the concerns. The setup was extremely simple with voice prompts guiding me through the process. The sound quality, both recording and playing (internal speaker and via FM radio) were very clear while both standing still and driving on a rough road at highway speeds. I read one concern about always having to change the FM transmitted channel when turning on the device. I found that if you just tap the FM power button rather than holding it down for 3 seconds it reconnected to the last used channel.

Great product. I have a Treo 650 and have been pretty unhappy with other over the ear bluetooth headsets from Motorola...which may have to do with compatibility issues. Got this hands free unit which works wonderfully. I have to roll my windows up when I'm on the phone since the microphone is soooo sensitive. FM transmission is awesome. Connection to my phone is great. Would highly recommend to anyone!!!!

I didn't know what to expect since this was a new item when I bought it. I have been using for several weeks & I am very impressed with its functions & performance. I have a lot of windshield time & this plays my MP3 player music throught my vehicle stereo & automatically pauses the music & announces a call coming in. One button operation to voice command with my cell phone. After calls, the music automatically resumes without having to do anything. Outstanding product, another great for Motorola.

Motorola MOTOROKR T505 Bluetooth In-Car Speakerphone is a great buy. Had the product for nearly 30 days recharged once. The speaker is very clear. Works very well even on the interstate. Callers don't even realize they are on a speaker phone, it sounds to them that you are using the handset. I linked this unit with a LG Chocolate the phone itself actually recognizes my voice commands better than using the handset. The unit plays through the Stereo, however I prefer the speaker in the unit because the FM frequencies can encounter interference at times. Great product...Motorola definately knows what they are doing.

Very pleasantly surprised with this device. I literally had it streaming music within about 2 minutes of unboxing it. Performs very well as a music player and as a hands-free phone too. One thing that isn't really mentioned is that since it's mobile you can literally carry it into your office/home and continue streaming to any FM radio. The T505's autoscan feature works very well, but you may find yourself having to change stations as you drive. I do wish I could manually pick my own radio station, but there's no real way to do that. The good news fortunately is that as the device finds good stations, you can save them to a "preferred" list by pressing the Play and FM buttons simultaneously. Bought through buy.com over a week ago for about $40 less that B*** B**. Free shipping was super fast too.

What I like: I can just sit in the car, turn the thing on and go. No wires to connect, decent battery life, good sound quality when on a clear channel. What I don't like: Automatic FM frequency selection - nice idea but I'd rather set it myself rather than have it choose it. As it stands, I have to manually tune the radio each time I use it instead of using a preset.
