Carlinkit Mini Ultra is a cars that contain USB-A ports that do not have support for wireless fracture. The company is preparing delivery and operation, as you connect Mini Ultra in your car, and you can then connect your iPhone so that you can use CarPlay. It works, but not without some issues.
After connecting the Mini Ultra to your car’s USB-A port, you can contact it by finding it in iPhone’s Bluetooth settings. After the initial preparation, your iPhone will communicate with Mini Ultra automatically and immediately. You also need to use Wi-Fi, which makes Mini Drive faster. A USB-C adapter is also included to USB-A as well.
Whenever you have to remove Mini Ultra to use the USB port for something else, then connect the Mini Ultra again, you have problems with sending between the iPhone and Mini Ultra. Sometimes the problems were solved quickly, at other times I had to wait a little bit until the connection stabilized. However, in most cases, I was online immediately with CarPlay shortly after starting the car.
During a short trip, I had two interruptions, I managed to correct it quickly by separating the transformer from the USB port and connecting it again immediately.
When Mini Ultra works, it works perfectly. Response – the speed that Carplay interacts – is very good. I noticed that Mini Ultra creates a good amount of heat.
You cannot connect two different iPhone devices with this adapter, although this is the basic restriction of the Bluetooth application. If you decide to use Mini Ultra with another iPhone, Carlinkit states that Bluetooth and Wi-Fi need to turn off the iPhone you do not use.
The manufacturer indicates that its adapter is not compatible with BMW or Tesla cars. The converter also works with Android Auto.

He does what he is supposed to do – most of the time. She has some shortcomings, and I had cross interruptions between the transformer and the mobile phone. Perhaps you can find a more reliable transformer than another company.
