Voices sounded a bit hollow during our test call, but we could still hear clearly. The pinhole microphone did a good job of eliminating road noise, but not completely. The built in omnidirectional speaker is loud and clear, and very easy to hear over road noise. The Motorokr T505 handles all of the basic speakerphone functions with ease. When powered on, the device goes into discovery mode, re-pairing with the last connected device when it comes in range. Pairing the T505 with our test phone was painless. This allows you to leave the phone or MP3 player out of view and helps keep your eyes on the road. When in A2DP mode, the side buttons allow the user to skip back and forward between songs and a play/pause button starts and stops the music. This is a great feature for people who own a Bluetooth-enabled MP3 player or a phone with A2DP streaming. If, for example, the built-in speaker still isn't loud enough for you, you can use the FM transmitter function to route calls through your car stereo's speakers.Īnother great feature the T505 offers is A2DP audio streaming, which lets you use the device as a monaural speaker or, in conjunction with the FM transmitter feature, stream music to your car stereo. Motorola didn't just stop at the basics for the T505. Calls are answered and ended with the call button, and the last number called can be redialed by holding the call button for 2 seconds. However, if your phone offers a text-to-speech caller ID, you should probably use it instead, as recognizing a caller based on phone number alone can be a bit unwieldy. The device does speak aloud the number of the incoming call, so the lack of a display isn't too bad. We'd like to see a caller ID display on the face of the T505. So, if you want to charge the T505 outside of your car, you'll have to supply your own USB cable. When the time to charge does come, the T505 gets its power over USB and comes with a micro USB car charger.


The long battery life coupled with the device's autopower meant that during a week of testing, we only had to charge the battery once. There is also an autopower feature that puts the device to sleep when unused and wakes it for a call. We like this feature because it lets you ditch the power cord while driving, which means there's no cable dangling in your field of view.
