It’s not a big issue as after starting car it only is a simple press of the button on the device and then another press to start music that was last playing, but would have been great if this happened automatically, occasionally this does happen but as yet can’t work out why.But despite the one issue mentioned above I would really recommend this device.Also when contacting kinivo customer service via their website chat support they got back to me straight away and were very helpful. I did contact kinivo support about this, it seems this could be an issue with my car (BMW) which is started by start/stop button rather than key. Most of the of the time after starting the car I then have turn the device on manually by pressing the multi function button. Again it seems this was an issue with the phone rather than device as after rebooting the phone, the beeps disappeared.The buttons on the device all work well, including two short presses to activate Siri on the iPhone, allowing you to control your phone by voice.The only reason I have made this four stars and not 5, is that the device only occasionally turns on automatically when I start the car. For some reason at first the call volume on my iPhone kept defaulting to a low volume with each call, but after a reboot of the phone this resolved it.Also other reviews have reported an annoying beep from the device in between music tracks, again I did experience this initially as well as a beep when using google maps after every audio nagvigation alert. Just need to ensure that call volume is set to high on the phone and then control the volume on the car speakers. I did have an issue with this initially but it seems this was a problem with my iPhone rather than the device, so suspect that maybe true for others. A few other reviews have reported that there is a big volume difference between music and calls. Kinivo btc450 bluetooth handsfree car kit for android#Seems strange given that the btc480 is supposed to be an upgrade? But wasn’t an issue for me as I use an iPhone, which doesn’t use aptx, and amazon music which only uses mp3quality but might be an issue for android users.Call quality is also very good both in the car and reports are good from people calling me or receiving a call from me. One thing to note is unlike the btc450 the btc480 doesn’t have aptx, which is capable of better sound quality. The puck like controller is small and unobtrusive so doesn’t look out of place on the dash.Connected each time with my iPhone with no issues.No interference, so no need for a separate isolator.Sound quality over music is very good. The length of the cables allowed me to route all the wiring out of view from the centre arm rest the dash, so it does look built in. Kinivo btc450 bluetooth handsfree car kit series#So worth checking more closely on the reviews.Overall a great device, which I’ve been using daily now for three weeks.Installed on a BMW 3 series (07), with aux point in centre arm rest. Worth noting that most of the reviews here are for the btc450.
