PALOVUE LinkFlow Bluetooth Receiver

Plug and play. It is actually CD quality and perfect fit for usb near aux socket on a Skoda Roomster where the socket is next to handbrake so no trailing cables to catch. Works fine with iPhone, just select in Bluetooth which turns itself off when you switch off. Good sound quality and sound level. Appears well made and packaging good indicator. Not tried hands free mic yet but we’ll see how that gets on in updated review Updated review 10 February 23 Great until yesterday when it made a loud noise like sudden radio interference and the volume dropped by more than 50%. Been using 14 days. Disconnected and un-paired and re-paired the link flow with my iPhone but the problem persists. Turning the volume up from 12 to 24 gives sound but the Linkflow is now picking up background noise from the car indicators and electrics so not really usable. Amplification seems to have failed. Emailed Paloview customer service to ask whether Linkflow failed or can I reset it but no reply so far. Updated review 13 June 23 Given up with the Linkflows - 3rd unit spontaneously stopped working and couldn't be found. Very neat unit just some kind of manufacturing problem with the chips inside I suspect. Bought a 1Mii Bluetooth 5.0 Receiver for Car on bass that I have 1Mii for analogue hifi which works fine so wish me luck

Whilst I can't speak for other cars, this little dongle is prefect for me. I recently upgraded to a rather nice BMW F20 and was sorely disappointed with the lack of a Bluetooth audio option. In these one series models, the USB and aux is located inside the armrest console and so it tucks away pretty seamlessly. Connecting to the item was absolutely flawless and took a couple of seconds, and sure enough, it connects instantly thereafter to my phone! In terms of audio quality, it is on par, if not slightly better then the aux in. Very happy. Only thing I would say is if you turn up the volume in the car too much there is a *very slight* static noise which you can hear if you pause the music - to counteract this all you need to do is turn up your phone volume and turn down the car volume and it's sorted. I can't comment on longevity yet but I've heard a few reviews saying it stops working after half a year , etc. For the price of this item, I would be happy to replace twice a year or so considering the audio quality and quality of life improvement! All in all - great product. Will do the job. Comes with an aux extension cable in the box in case your USB and aux inputs are further away.

I have a mini countryman 2015 r60 with the cd boost radio (which has bluetooth connectivity for phone calls but not audio streaming). I didn't want to pay for a hifi upgrade and didn't like the look of some of the other bluetooth streaming devices available which had wires or buttons. This little device is brilliant - it just plugs into the aux in & usb sockets in the central rail (so i now use the cig lighter for charging when needed), pair your phone and voilà. In bluetooth settings I opted to use this for audio only, my car still handles calls, meaning I can still use the steering wheel buttons to answer and hang up. It connects automatically when I start the car up and plays seamlessly with great audio quality. A very simple and cost effective solution.

This unit is small, discrete and works extremely well. Once setup, it connects to you phone quickly and transfers streamed music very well. I heard and saw it in my brothers mini and I had to replace the unit I was using for this one.

Have a really nice Roberts DAB radio which we use in the kitchen, but is about ten years old. I recently upgraded to an iPhone X, which obviously doesn't have a headphone socket, so can no longer be used to drive the radio without a Lightning-to-3.5mm converter. I decided to go Bluetooth instead. This device arrived and was working in less than 5 minutes. It's well made and sturdy and plugged straight into the USB socket on the front of the radio for power. It has a fairly short 3.5mm cable coming out of it, but ships with an extension that meant it could easily reach the AUX on the back of the radio. Connected and working with no problems at all. The only tiny issue I have is that my Roberts radio no longer goes into standby, presumably becuase it belives there's always something 'live' in the AUX port. A minor issue though.

I’m in love with this product, it is so small and compact, looks very sleek in any car, and as soon as you plug it into the USB and Aux in your car, connect to it on your phone, you are ready to listen to anything you want, completely wirelessly. The quality of sound through it is also perfect (I have owned different products like this from other brands) and none of them sound as good as this one ! They are either too quiet, or the sound quality seems to be reduced, but not with the Palovue. 10/10 and I recently bought another one for my other car so I don’t have to share just one. Customer support team are also fantastic should you have any questions regarding the product! Highly recommend if you are looking a product for phone connectivity in your car

Update: 10Sep23... the seller reached out to me having read my review (and apologised for the problems I experienced) and offered me a full refund - which I accepted. Whilst my review still stands, it does at least show that the seller is concerned about buyer satisfaction. I would buy from this seller again, on that basis. Original review: I've kept this device, but am no longer using it. The problem I had was that the sound output was woefully poor, when connected to the AUX input of my car stereo. This may not be solely the fault of this bluetooth device, but I switched it for a device which cost under £5 and this solved my problem! It looks to be a well made device, with good build quality... but my experience with the sound output means I can't recommend it. I've since read other reviews which complain of similar problems being experienced to the one I found. I think this is a matter of 'decide for yourself if you want to take the risk'...

Simple connection. Works brilliantly. Have played Amazon music and Greatest Hits Radio. Very pleased.
