Hello! I have the A8327 model but it appears to be very similar to this model. I did everything in this video and the manual but I can’t find the device in my Bluetooth devices on my phone. Do you have any suggestions for me? Also I do like the vid! 👍
I recommend, while the device is off hold the button until device turns on , but don't release it. Hold it until it starts blinking red and blue and then refresh the Bluetooth list on your phone
@@CarGhost thanks for the tip! I tried it but unfortunately it didn’t work so I’m just going to see if I can get a refund and go back to using a regular aux cord.
@@BasketballRhino Yeah it doesn’t work for iPhones 📲 I couldn’t find it on my 14 pro But when I looked for it on my android IT POPPED RIGHT UP “Sound Sync” Connected with zero issues So it’s definitely more designed to connect with non-apple products Not sure why.
I saw some reviews saying there’s this hissing noise when you aren’t playing anything and charging your phone at the same time, has this happened to you?
Can I connect it to the car simultaneously connecting it to the usb port to power it on so I wouldn’t always have to be charging it? And is there anything better you would recommend or is this your choice ?
Not at all. I ended up routing it in the ash tray and leaving it plugged in. Works even better, cause you don't need to turn it on all the time. Once it senses the power coming in it turns itself on and connects to the last device it was connected to
I can think of two things. When you turn it on, make sure the blue light is blinking and not solid. That means the device is in pairing mode. If that doesn't help, I'd ask for a replacement unit.
@Car Ghost Ok thanks for the quick reply. I try it. It's a pity that it doesn't work without a cable, it doesn't look so nice if there's always a cable hanging out
Which method provides better audio quality for music playing from smartphone: playing it using the Anker device (wireless Bluetooth) or using car Aux (phone linked to car stereo with Jack cable)??? Who actually tested the 2 options, would be great if I could get a sincere feedback. Thanks in advance 🙂!
The cable should be giving you a better quality, but my phone doesn't have a headphone jack. With that said, my wife's phone has a headphone jack and when we plug it I can't seem to find any difference in sound quality.
I love it. I actually used the long cable and routed it through the light in the glove compartment and into the ashtray where I can actually use it as a hands free as well.
Thumbs down for not even testing the sound quality with music. This video is just a cheap and quick place to toss up an affiliate link for people to click on. He doesn’t want you to know if it has bad sound quality, he just wants you to buy it so he makes a commission.
@@CarGhost sure mate. How have u been liking it so far. Does it automatically turn off when we switch off the ignition. And does it automatically turn on when we turn on the ignition?
It does not, turn off when you turn the ignition off, but it does if it isn't used for a while on its own. It also doesn't start itself when you turn ignition on, unless you actually have it plugged into the power of the car charger. I have routed mine (with the cable provided) from the glove box into the ashtray directly in front of the shifter, for easy access and it's invisible when astray is closed.
It worked for what it is and I used it for a really long times without any issue. I changed cars, so I don't use it anymor, but that doesn't make it garbage.

IT POPPED RIGHT UP
“Sound Sync”
Connected with zero issues

Not sure why.
The A8327 is a transmitter not a reciever. This setup needs to be a reciever to work. Transmitters won't pair to your phone.
I saw some reviews saying there’s this hissing noise when you aren’t playing anything and charging your phone at the same time, has this happened to you?
Very rarely
Can I connect it to the car simultaneously connecting it to the usb port to power it on so I wouldn’t always have to be charging it? And is there anything better you would recommend or is this your choice ?
I've had it plugged in to the usb charger in my car at all times because it would automatically turn on when I turn the key in the ignition
Any issues with just leaving the micro USB plugged into the car charger permanently?
Not at all. I ended up routing it in the ash tray and leaving it plugged in. Works even better, cause you don't need to turn it on all the time. Once it senses the power coming in it turns itself on and connects to the last device it was connected to
Idk why but my phone can't find this device
Make sure your Bluetooth is on. The name is soundsync something
@@CarGhost It's on, it just can't find it.
I can think of two things. When you turn it on, make sure the blue light is blinking and not solid. That means the device is in pairing mode. If that doesn't help, I'd ask for a replacement unit.
same with mine i’m not sure what’s wrong lol
Both my iPhone and note 10 find mine without issues
Can i connect this to a monitor then Bluetooth connect my Bluetooth JBL flip 5 to it to produce sound?
How about loudness I’m looking for one that is louder the difference between Xm and aux is like 50 ticks
Does your Anker Soundsync turn on automatically? I have a w211 and I have to turn on Anker Sync whenever I want to sync with Bluetooth...
I plugged the power cable into the lighter charger, so qjenbI stert the car it powers on.
@Car Ghost Ok thanks for the quick reply. I try it. It's a pity that it doesn't work without a cable, it doesn't look so nice if there's always a cable hanging out
I use one of these in my shitbox old kia. Works great
does it connect to your phone automatically when you turn on your car?
You do have to turn it on. Battery last a good while tho
Will it work with my steering controls? Like I have change song button on my steering and was wondering if I could it to change songs or not
No, it will not
@@CarGhost What can I do to make that work? Is there any other device?
You could replace your head unit with an android one and some of those have the funcrion for steering wheel controls
@@CarGhost Can you send me a link or let me know from where I cant find the head unit?

Thanks a lot !
How you liking it so far
I love it. I actually used the long cable and routed it through the light in the glove compartment and into the ashtray where I can actually use it as a hands free as well.
Ive read that this product makes an annoying bleep noise of some wort when charging and using? Is this true, as that would be a no-go for me?
I don't believe it does.
@@CarGhost Thanks.
Do you know if it would work on a Zune?
Does zune have Bluetooth?
Zune?! What year is it?
Tried using this with my switch. Horrible audio delay. Any idea how to fix it
Switch is usually pretty bad with any Bluetooth audio 🤷♂️
Anyone having trouble finding their Bluetooth device on the iPhone? I have never had issue finding a device but it will not find this one
A few people have issues with that. Me personally, I use both my phones with it with no issues.
Does this work with iPhones?
Yes it does. It is a Bluetooth module and you pair it the same as you would any Bluetooth headphones
Thx man, I just bought it and can’t seem to get it to work it for now, just flashes blue and red but my phone cannot find it.
Did you charge it?
Yes!
Ok, long press should turn it on. It should blink blue and appear as Soundsync(numbers) then you should be able to pair it
How does it work with phone calls?
Good, I routed it into the ashtray so when I need to call I just open the ashtray and it works just fine as a hands-free
Shoutout to all us broke niggas that can’t afford new cars with Bluetooth ✌🏻
🙌🙌🙌

does it have that annoying female voice that says bluetooth connected
Asking the real questions
@@fluente nah fr
Very odd spot for an aux port. But it was what it was I suppose. Germans.
That's why I routed it through the ambient light in the glove box into the ashtray with the provided extension cable
@@CarGhost ahhh. I understand
Ditch the gum on your subsequent videos.
Noted ✅
Plzz stop chewing a gum while making a video.. its really annoying
It was only on this one
@@CarGhost sure mate. How have u been liking it so far. Does it automatically turn off when we switch off the ignition. And does it automatically turn on when we turn on the ignition?

Please don't say "us car guys". This product is garbage. We are not the same.
