Digital Cameras Photo Reviews of Kensington 33365 Pico FM Transmitter for iPod 5G and Nano (Black)
Customer Review: Form Beats Function
Summary: 1 Stars
I got this because it was the smallest FM transmitter for the iPOD Nano. It integrated well with the iPOD, and I had no problems using it to select the station. The real problem was static. I tried multiple "clear" FM channels in the Nashville area, but I could not get a nice clean signal on any one of them. There was always static or hiss in the background. I think this transmitter is just not powerful enough. I tried placing it in several positions in my car as well. I would not recommend this. I have a friend who has the Monster Cable FM transmitter and charger. He has not experienced the same problems.Customer Review: Only One That Worked For Me
Summary: 4 Stars
I tried 2 different of these, the itrip (for nannos) and the "cradle type". I returned them both to Best Buy. Neither one worked at all. I read the comments on this one and took a chance. Yes it works. As usual Amazon shipped it fast to my door in a few days. The sound does waver a bit but you just need to keep on trying the different bands. I live in the Detroit area and found good results with the low and mid 90's bands. Clear instructions (something the others lacked). Overall so far I am pleased with this item.Customer Review: Reconciling the Reviews:
Summary: 4 Stars
It's easy to reconcile the widely varying reviews this little gadget has received. If you drive primarily in areas with few FM stations, and if you have an unobstructed line of sight between your iPod and your car's radio antenna, then you're going to like this transmitter. Otherwise ... not so much. The important point is this: you're not going to know how well this transmitter will work for you until you try it out in your car. (It's working great in my Audi TT roadster in southern Idaho.)Customer Review: Works as advertised.
Summary: 5 Stars
This transmitter works great. Very compact with no wires is a plus. Not sure why the other reviews stated issues with the transmitter as it has great sound and strength. I am using with a Nano 3G on my console and luckily have a clear station to tune it to. Very clear and although not CD quality the sound is very good for a transmitter. The progamming is a little quirky but once you have your station set it's not a probelm.Customer Review: no luck with this one
Summary: 1 Stars
I could get it to work, but the sound quality was very poor. This is the second type of FM transmitter I have tried - the search is on again I guess. I suppose with these things it is trial and error until you find one that works. I liked the fact that you could use this one with any radio, not just in the car, but I may have to resort to the "car only" type. If all I can hear is static, forget it.
