Crust Bluetooth device price, review, colours, rating, usage

Adds Bluetooth compatibility to your existing audio system.

The Crust CS30 is an FM transmitter that provides Bluetooth connectivity for audio systems in cars that do not support it natively. The device can be used for streaming music and for calls. The device plugs into the 12V power socket, and you can enjoy seamless Bluetooth connectivity once you match your vehicle’s radio frequency with the device’s. Further adding to the convenience is a volume knob and a shortcut button to accept calls.

What we like:

Plug and play

Plug the device in your vehicle’s 12V socket, and it immediately comes to life – there’s no delay or additional button presses required.

Seamless connectivity

You just need to pair it via Bluetooth with your smartphone once, and from thereon, it pairs with your phone as soon as it is in range.

Affordable

For Rs 674 on various online shopping platforms, it is an inexpensive solution to update your old audio system with Bluetooth compatibility.

USB support

In addition to Bluetooth connectivity, the device also has 3 USB ports – Type A and Type C chargers, and an additional slot to plug in a pendrive and play music.

What we don’t:

Tacky ambient lighting 

Bordering the device fascia are LED lights with seven changeable colours which won’t have a universal appeal. Thankfully, these can be turned off.

Low call volume

While call clarity is acceptable on both sides, you will need to crank up the speaker volume as the call volume is a bit low.

Music sound quality

The device gives you the option of multiple equaliser settings, however, the music quality streamed via this Bluetooth device isn’t as good as a wired setup.
