Motorola T305 Bluetooth Hands Free Speaker

I was looking for a no frills car speaker to use with my BlackBerry Tour that was easily portable between different cars, easy to use, and had good sound quality for speaking and listening. The T305 did the trick.

Pairing this with my Tour was quick and effortless. Using it is a breeze. I just hit the phone button to receive a call and my speed dial buttons to dial frequently called numbers. Voice activated calling also works, though I tend not to use that.

This is a small unit that clips unobtrusively and easily to the visor for easy installation and removal. The people I call say that my voice is clearer than when I was using a headset. I can also hear them more clearly.

Let me address some critiques mentioned in other reviews, none of which should deter you from buying this unit:

1. There is no AC charger, only a cigarette lighter charger with a micro USB plug on one end. True, but there are lots of gadgets you can buy to power electronic gadgets via a USB cable and AC outlet (I own several; one of my favorites is the Tekkeon MP-1800, which I use for this unit as well as my iPod Touch, Tour, and Slacker G2).

Also, if you have a USB 2.0 A-Male to Mini-B cable (which costs only a few dollars on Amazon) you can charge this unit via the USB port on your computer.

2. The power switch is tiny. True, but it really is not difficult to turn this on and off (and it shuts off automatically after 30 minutes when not paired with your phone, which happens when you leave the car and get far enough away).

3. There is a flashing blue light to indicate that the unit is connected to the phone (and my Tour also has a flashing blue light while it is connected to the speaker). True, but if it bothers you just put a piece of black electrical tape over it (though I would not cover it completely so that when you charge this unit, you can tell when the charging light turns from red to blue to indicate a full charge).

4. The unit does not automatically turn on and sync with your phone when you get into the car. True, but it is not really a big deal to turn it on.

Bottom line: This unit cost less than half the sale price of my fancy blue tooth headset and is both easier and clearer for me to use. In addition, since pairing with a phone is required only once, you can use this with multiple phones (though obviously not at the same time), which is handy when my wife wants to borrow it for occasional use. The only adjustment on this unit is the volume, but that is all that I was looking for. For a "plain vanilla" unit I recommend this.

This is a great hands free device that paired with my iPhone immediately without a problem. The only negative is the tiny off/on switch.

This hands free speaker phone was purchased as a combined offer from Amazon with the Motorola Mini USB Wall Charger. The Motorola hands free speakerphone came from Amazon and the wall charger came from another vendor. THE WALL CHARGER DOESN'T WORK WITH THE SPEAKERPHONE, IT ONLY WORKS WITH MOTOROLA PHONES. Don't be misled by this deal unless you have a Motorola phone.

love this item it is so much better then those darn earpieces. So much easier to use and great hands free device. i highly recommend this item.

I hate having anything in my ear. I did a lot of research before I bought this. It is super! Easy to set up. Easy to use. The sound quality is awesome. The person on the other end comes through loud and clear. I was disappointed there wasn't a home charger but luckily my husband has another bluetooth device that uses the same charger so I am all set. Would highly recommed this product.

I purchased the Motorola T305 Bluetooth Hands Free Speaker for use in my car. I am extremely happy with the product based upon the price I paid!
I can clearly hear to whomever I am speaking to, although I have been told that I sporadically cut out on the other end.
The speaker is small & clips onto my visor without taking up alot of space.
Overall good product for the money paid!
