(29 reviews)

• If you have an iPod mini you need an iTrip mini. The iTrip mini FM transmitter lets you play your iPod mini?s music wirelessly through any FM radio ? in your car, on the road, even at home through your stereo.The iTrip mini was designed exclusively for the iPod mini. Its form factor matches perfectly all the curves and lines of the iPod mini. It sounds even sweeter. iTrip mini gives you the best possible performance because you can choose any empty station from 87.7 to 107.9. Best of all you choose and change your iTrip mini stations directly from the iPod mini itself.The iTrip mini does NOT n...eed batteries. It receives a tiny amount of power directly from the iPod mini ? saving you from wasting hundreds of batteries a year. That?s good news for the planet and even better news for your wallet.

    Pros:
    good quality sound, easy setup, compact, nice design that looks like an extension of the mini instead of an awkward add-on, compatible with home and car stereo systems/radios

    Cons:
    sometimes the signal is distorted when driving near power lines, may drain battery more than you would like--but just get a cheap car charger and you will be good to go

    Summary:
    This is a great product and I have been very happy with this purchase. I am still in awe of the fact that I can actually play my ipod on my car stereo. It has always worked great in my car (2006 Civic), but it does not work in my boyfriend's older car. However, his radio is staticky anyway, so maybe it is his antenna. If your radio has static when tuned to regular stations, then this product would probably not be good for you. I have also used this product to play music on my radio alarm clock. It has a weaker antenna, so I have to put the ipod+transmitter directly on top of the radio. In my car, I have never had trouble finding the "sweet spot".. it pretty much works anywhere I put it. The only issue I have had with the signal so far is when I am driving near a lot of powerlines on the highway, there is distortion and static. If you are planning on using the iTrip for road trips, or even just frequent short trips in your car, you should probably invest in a cheap car charger. The iTrip does drain your battery, although not extensively.

    Pros:
    small, lightweight, white, fits nicely

    Cons:
    poor audio quality, easy to loose, no screen

    Summary:
    This is probably the worst ipod transmitter that is currenly on the market. Don't be fooled by the iTrip name; this product just does not live up to the hype. The audio quality is of very poor quality. I have tried numerous stations, but I keep getting terriable sound quality. Furthermore, the product worked decently for 1 week before it just refused to operate anymore. This may be due to the system updates your iPod's may be using. I would tell anyone who is looking for a good value and sound quality to stay away from this product. By a product that is of higher quality and has more feature. You will be glad you did.

    Pros:
    easy to use

    Cons:
    cuts out sometimesor or gets fuzy

    Summary:
    this thing is very cool and incredibly nice to have for the i pod. dont turn sound on i pod to loud or sound quality will be fuzzy. sometimes it cuts out to. that happens to me but not very often. last time it happened was two months ago so periodically you might have problems with it. i would reccomend it because it is easy to use and if you want to listen without cumbersome headphones then it is just what you need especially for your car. the good outweighs the bad.

    Pros:
    Good integration with the iPod mini; looks nice

    Cons:
    Changing frequencies is a pain; sound quality; drains the battery quickly

    Summary:
    The iTrip is a good idea, but only a mediocre product. I know some people who have bought these, only to switch back to their old tape adapters. The good thing is you just plug it in and it works using the default settings. Changing FM frequencies is a royal pain, because you have to install a playlist that messes up your music library (I'm anal). The sound quality is kind of weak (between FM and AM radio quality), with slight interruptions of static in my car. The battery drains much faster if you broadcast like this, lasting maybe half the time of a full charge.

    Pros:
    compact design, requires no batteries

    Cons:
    drains the battery in 20 minutes, signal is too weak

    Summary:
    this is seriously the most useless accessory available for the mini.especially for their 40 dollar price tag.the interface is lacking simplicity, signal is too weak to overcome distortion/static. battery life is significantly reducedbottom line: don't buy it, unless you have no other option.don't go fm transmitter if you want your ipod in the car, get a cassette adapter.

    Pros:
    Songs can be heard clearly :D . i'm happy with the purchase

    Cons:
    can't find one at my place. probably some ppl have problems with it where there are a lot of radio stations... i wouldnt know.

    Summary:
    buy it. its worth the money :D . the itrip will deliver an average quality of sound to your radio/receiver. i don't see why other people have problems with it... it works great for me... in the car or even in my room it works just fine.

    Pros:
    This is great for cars. It sounds exactly like the radio would, as expected. No bass signal loss.

    Cons:
    Difficult to find frequency. Drains battery life.

    Summary:
    I bought this product for driving in a big bus that only has a radio. It works great for that, i cant hear any static in there. But when i use it in my car, there's noticeable static like on a weak signal. In drained my batter a lot, like the life is about 3 hours as opposed to 6-7 hours. It works best with volume up around 75%.

    Cons:

    Summary:
    The griffin itrip mini is the latest for the ipod mini, it seems to be the only one that fits onto the ipod perfectly. I have only used it a couple of times, but it is great for the car. I have ordered a car holder and that will help to use while driving. It works great.

    Pros:
    small, stylish and works very well.

    Cons:
    none come to mind

    Summary:
    Have had one for several months and just bought a second for my son who just received an ipod (mini) and wants to use it through his boombox/home stereo. Had previously tried the Belkin products and was very displeased with sound quality and backgroun hiss. This product is much better sounding and looking. Fits right on top of mini ipod and has same sleek lines. Product is a "winner"
