Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)I got this as a gift for Xmas and was excited about the possibility of hands free calling/charging/music playing all at once.
I do not find it to live up to all of my hopes.
Pros
-The product is sturdy as swivels nicely to be at an angle where it wont fall out.
-Bright blue indicator light at the base lets you know its plugged in and the power is working.
Cons
-Does not fit the Pre nicely. Had to significantly modify it to hold the pre in place because of the side charging plug. Originally the pads that hold it in place covered this part of the phone. The kit does come with pads you have to stick on the bottom to expose the charging plug, but it ends up sitting half out of the dock.
-No integrated microphone to base. This means you have to use the pre's mic for hands free calling, which often ends up in me yelling at the caller to hear me over road noise.
-The sound quality was ok while it worked. There was some noticeable distortion on songs I played through pandora/phone calls, but it was listenable. About 2 weeks in to using it, it developed a whomping noise I can not get rid of no matter what I try.
-The cables for power plug in that it comes with are ridiculously long. It leaves a lot of overlap that either hangs or has to be tucked in somewhere.
Overall
If they improved some of the shortcomings this could be a good product, however there are enough things holding it back for me not to reccomend it.
