Fantasitc!
I was a little skeptical about how well this product would work, but decided to order it and give it a shot anyway. I have a Samsung Galaxy Note which is a pretty big phone, and this holder definitely holds up! It fits my Samsung phone just right (I have it as wide as it will go). The FM tuner works wonderfully as well and has an on/off switch on the side. It has plenty of station options to find a perfect station to keep it on and working. I was also concerned that it would not hold up my phone as I drove (that the arm holding it would droop eventually), but it holds its position and I don't have to readjust at all. All in all I am very happy with this product. It is a great price (others FM docking stations and chargers I have found to be upwards of $70) and a great product.

Okay, but needs support for "arm stabilitiy"
This product does do what it says it will do; however, the "flexible arm" needs some support to stabilize the Galaxy S4 when driving down the road - the arm tends to "droop" fairly quickly.FM transmitter works fine; however, it would be nice to be able to use the microphone with the Galaxy SPEAKERS when not transmitting on FM (I couldn't figure out how to get this to work). I listen to XM Radio the MAJORITY of the time. It SEEMS that if the microphone is plugged in, even without the FM Transmitter on (which it has to be if you want to use the charging feature), the phone speakers do not work. I have downloaded a separate app called SoundAbout; however, that doesn't seem to have a feature like this either. ***ANY OTHER USERS HAVE SUGGESTIONS***It would be GREAT to have a SEPARATE power button for charging and FM Transmitting.I DO like how secure the Galaxy S4 is held in the "fingers".I would consider recommending this product to friends and family.

Very sturdy, quality materials, good unit.
I have the samsung galaxy S3 and was looking for a phone dock/fm transmitter for my car and this one was the second transmitter I purchased. The first one, the Esky wireless transmitter, was too small for my phone and the layout makes seeing what station the unit is broadcasting to very difficult. WIth the Car Mount Holder Charger, my phone easily fits and has room to spare and can go in and out of the unit easily because of the top lip that just lifts up. The first problem I had with the product is that the top holder overlaps the headphone jack so that about half of it is covered up. Not a real problem, I just have the phone on a slight angle for now until I can borrow a power drill and bore a little semicircle to make it fit. After using it for about a week now, I have had signal cut in and out, but the few times that it has happened have not been significant or annoying, There is a little bit of static that is hard to avoid, but that's part of the game when it comes to FM transmitters, and for anyone who feels like tinkering, there are dozens of youtube videos of how to boost the signal strength and it only involves removing a resistor and soldering on a little copper wire. Overall I really like this product, I think the design is pretty slick, and the materials feel nice and sturdy. The ball mounted cradle is a real treat so you don't have to struggle with the gooseneck cable every time you want to adjust it, you just grab the cradle and it will turn on the ball and socket joint, great feature.

It was great, then stopped working!!!
This is the best FM-Transmitter I have ever used, and trust me, I have had many before. This one holds the phone steady and makes it a lot easier to change the songs on the device. I love the charger because it is so fast compared to other car chargers. Works great! I would definitely recommend this product to anyone!My initial review was above, but after about a week or two, the cable only allows for the system to play on one side of my car speakers. I literally have to hold the cord a certain way for it to play in all of my car speakers. I have very upset about this considering how much I paid for this transmitter!!!!!

Great device for the car!
I was not sure if this would work properly in my car but it works fine in my Honda. I was able to charge my cell phone and it included the charge cable. It plugs in easily to the car charge port and you set the station on the device to match the FM station. The sound quality is fine for the amount spent on this. If you are looking for BOSE sound system then sorry but it is great for everyday normal listen like in your car stereo.
