Besides my phone, the AAWireless Two Plus is arguably my most-used piece of technology today. It’s a USB dongle that, when plugged into a car, lets you connect your Android (and now, iPhone) wirelessly. Not every modern car is that high-tech, as I’ve learned, so you’ll have to understand the problem this little gadget solves.

The better part is that it’s currently on sale on Amazon for $10 off, bringing the total down to $59 (from $69). It’s not a doorbuster deal per se, but it’s one that anyone seeking a reliable, functional wireless Android Auto or CarPlay adapter can easily appreciate. And it’s a Prime Day deal that I can confidently recommend.
The way the adapter works is simple: you plug it into your car’s device and accessories port (usually a USB-C or USB-A), long-press the AAWireless’ multifunctional button until it blinks in pairing mode, connect to it from your Android device or iPhone, and then your car should automatically switch to Android Auto or CarPlay when you start the engine.
From there, you should be able to navigate apps, access your mapping services, make calls and messages, and dial into your native voice assistant without the stress of dangling cables. I’ve found the wireless connectivity especially useful when it’s dark outside — such as on morning commutes and late-night grocery runs — so I don’t have to fidget with cables and awkward port insertions.

As I’ve pointed out before, the AAWireless Two Plus isn’t perfect. There may be some connection hiccups when you’re switching between host devices or when other services are running in the background on your phone, but it’s still the most reliable adapter I’ve tested — and I’ve used virtually all the options on the market.
Eventually, you may even find yourself within the AAWireless app, which gives you access to diagnostic and troubleshooting tools.
How I rated this deal
I gave this deal a 3/5 because it’s only 15% off, but still a fair discount for the product that you’re getting. If it were to dip below that amount, I would rate the deal higher.
