BlackBerry VM605 Visor Mount Bluetooth Speakerphone Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)Yes, I am a Blackberry Fan Boy and thus I trust pretty much everything they make..the exception being the STORM. :-) Research in Motion recently released this device and I figured it was time to get one and give it a shot. I was finally getting fed-up of something stuck in my ear all of the time so I could talk while on the road. I live in the Tri-State area, NY-NJ-CT and drive about 4 hours a day, therefore making Bluetooth a necessity.
And now for the review:
Box Includes: Visor Clip, Car Charger (Micro USB), and documentation in English, Spanish, and French.
**Quick Note: This device also utilizes Micro-USB as do most new smart phones in the market today. It is the new standard for cell phone chargers and thus will eliminate a lot of redundant chargers in our homes, offices, and cars.
Simply charge the device over night so that it is good and ready to go for your usage. Once charged, turn it on and pair it with your blackberry device...the instructions are quite simple. The pairing process complete, you are ready to clip this in your cars visor and begin the process of becoming a road warrior.
The Visor Mount actually gives you a few language options, as follows:
US English
UK English
French
Italian
German
Spanish
Mexican Spanish
Brazilian Portuguese, and
Chinese.
Why do you need all of these options? Simply because the Visor mount actually has a voice feedback system that provides you various bits of information. It will announce an incoming call (with the number, it will give you its status (power on, power off, pairing mode, etc).
The design of this device is slick as could be and the voice quality is quite impressive...even while driving about 65+ miles per hour on a highway with the air conditioning running...(yes its been hot in NY/NJ). I made quite a few test calls and specifically asked the party on the other line about noise and quality...they said, and I quote, "You are in a CAR?". The speaker is quite loud and can be adjusted to your liking with a volume rocker panel on the right hand side of the device.
This device works and it works quite perfectly.
Now for the most interesting feature, an FM Transmitter. Current Blackberry models all have the ability to accept micro-sd cards up to about 16gb. You are able to get free software to sync your iTunes libraries to your Blackberry...as long as the content is DRM free. Once the music is on the unit you can play it back through headphones and or Bluetooth devices. The Visor Clip takes this whole process one step further...yes it will play back the content on itself or allow you to press the FM button on the left hand side and select a frequency to tune in on your car stereo. Voila, your blackberry is now broadcasting through your car stereo. This also works for phone calls... AWESOME! Impressed yet...? There is more, when you live in a congested area it is sometimes hard to find a FM frequency that works well with transmitters (we all know they are not great). Simply press and hold the FM button on the Visor and it will scan and announce a free frequency it finds on FM...tune your radio and you are set to go.
Battery Life: I have been using it for 2 days with moderate call volume and some music for testing purposes. It is still working...it does have somewhat of a battery meter on it. But real life usage will vary for everyone and thus you will have to make your own decision about how long it works for you and when it needs a charge. It comes with a car charger..so its not too much of an issue. :-)
This is the best visor clip I have ever used and I am glad I decided to get one. 5/5 for a great product at a great price. My ear has been FREED at last!
