I am considering a bluetooth receiver for my car. Right now I'm using a cable but that is annoying and gives the car a cluttered look. I looked on Amazon and the Mpow seems very popular and well rated. The only negative I could find is that it does not automatically turn on and pair when the power comes on (car starts providing power via usb). I would have to push the "on" or "pair" button I guess. It is very inexpensive but before I buy I'd like to know if there is something better. Let me know what you use. Thanks!
 
I have this one. Works great with my 6 plus. Good quality sound don't really use it for calls. I do wish it would announce the callers name. Easy to change tracks, play/pause. Can be used with Siri also.

Wish it had few more features like 2.1 amp charging instead of 1 amp for the usb port and the Bluetooth was version 4 instead of 2.1.
