Con: The display is not accurate and misleading; can really only work the system thru the remote control; cheap plastic, broke part of it replacing the battery which stopped working after using twice, but the remote still works.

But on the other hand...

Pro: Transmitter holds the radio frequency, whereas others I've tried thru amazon did not. And the info is easy enough to read--not something to do while driving anyway so doesn't matter much. It seems to hold together better, structurally than others I've used -- can be hairy pulling it in and out of the socket with some other models. Came with the mp3 plug and a light bulb; with others I had to purchase them myself, & not easy to find in my small town.

For the price it's not bad. And I'm looking forward to the next model or an upgrade. This is another reason why I like to do reviews, so I can tell the developer what I'd like them to improve on.

Two weeks of use of this product renders the remote control useless. Amazon has already exchanged this out for me, and the second time, same issue; the remote stops working after two weeks.

With the remote not responding, you may not increase or decrease the volume of the unit, you can still use your your car volume control but higher volume on the car side and lower on the unit will result in more obvious static sound.

You may also not access the equalizer feature available thru the remote.

I believe they install the cheapest of the cheapest battery one could ever find in this remote. I never tried replacing the battery as it would cost me about half the price of the unit itself.

Chinese made products are sure cheap, but you get what you pay for. Amazon please drop this junk from your lineup of products. Items like these belong on ebay, and not on amazon.

Thank you

Purchased these for a transport bus in a foreign country, with no CD or cassette option. This seemed like a good idea for a work-around seeing that some of the vehicles operate at 12v and others at 24v. The item itself was cheaply assembled and felt fragile and the housing was not exactly as pictured. Tried it and it did not work. When it was inserted into the socket, the LCD of the unit lit up but remained blank and it was not colored (seemed to be monochrome). Of course the time frame for return passed and it will now cost me more to return. In my opinion, there are much better transmitters/ MMC/ USB players available, but I have not seen any with dual voltage. I cannot possibly recommend this product. Still looking for an able and suitable replacement.

This device is superb. Has all the features needed including the RANDOM (shuffle) playback. It is well built. Thumbs up! for Pyle electronics.

This item is cheap enough, but is totally useless. The control screen is so small and dim that it can't be read in anything less than total darkness with a magnifying glass. Don't waste your money.

Buy this player with the illusion that the LCD screen as the show was them, and I found that has a monochrome screen and the day light illuminates only half of the screen, they should say, monochrome LCD screen and change image because they are that what you are doing is cheating.

The transmitted music is excellent on my car and patio radio at the high FM (100+)frequencies.

The functions are better than many at double the price, but the poorly lighted display with few characters negates this as well as the full function remote that must be held about a foot from the device.

In my car I use to select by genre one of six CDs. With the PLMP3C1,

on power up it sorts songs and files (for some time)in the order they were put in the directory of the SD card. All 550 of my songs by folder were copied to the SD, after formatting, in an order I wish to play them by default. So I created folders of 20-30 songs by (my) genre so that I can select the file that contains music that fits my mood. Just like when I created CDs to play but with more variety.

But well worth the $5 less than it now sells for!

Product works. Music isn't perfect, but clear enough for coming form a cheap transmitter like this. Expected it to be bigger but looking at the pictures again it's the right size. I thought the color screen was a really good value for the price but then upon arrival found out it was only monochromatic and poorly back lit by one LED. It also doesn't show the full artist and title of the song and it's difficult to find a song with out using the remote.

I'd of still probably bought it if it was represented as what it was but really would of preferred to get what was pictured above.

it has a b&w screen, not in color,

when i bought it it work fine for 2 weeks, then the screen just turn it to white, i send it back and they replace the item, this item replaced is working fine, i believe is a production thing...

AFTER BUYING THIS PRODUCT I HAVE NO REGRETS THE PRODUCT WORKS EXTREMELY WELL THUS FAR AND I WOULD RECOMMEND IT TO OTHER CUSTOMERS.
