Motorola MA1 Wireless Android Car Adapter - Instant Connection from Smartphone to Car Screen with Easy Setup - Direct Plug-in USB Adapter - Secure Gel Pad Included

Product Information

The Motorola MA1 eliminates the need to plug your phone into your car’s infotainment system every time you get into the vehicle. If you thought the Motorola MA1 looked a lot like Google’s Chromecast, you wouldn’t be alone in that assessment. On your car screen, navigate to the Bluetooth phone list, and 'forget' or 'delete' all paired phones.

This means your phone registers the connection the same way, so you’ll need a compatible device — one that supports 5GHz Wi-Fi and runs Android 11 or newer.Only the main button on the side and the LED light stand as manual inputs or visible cues, so I don't know if Motorola is able to push firmware updates to this thing.

Tomorrow, a new wireless Android Auto dongle under the Motorola brand will officially launch, and – based on our brief first impressions – the Motorola MA1 seems like a great option. The Motorola MA1 licenses technology from Google that makes it simple for users to connect to existing USB-enabled Android Auto vehicles wirelessly, making it even easier to access apps using the car's display.That obviously isn’t the worst battery drain in the world, but it’s worth bearing in mind on longer trips.
