It prompted me to pair my phone, then, once paired, it automatically imported my address book.

Then it can control voice dialing, accepting and rejecting calls, call waiting, last number callback, and even speak directions from Google Maps and third party sat-nav apps.įitting was nice and easy, then, after a full charge, the Parrot started speaking to me! I mentioned that the Parrot can emulate a Bluetooth enabled car, this is because the main part of the mount contains a microphone, speaker, and enough memory and processing power to store your contacts. The back is where the 2 Watt speaker sits. The other side houses a microphone on a retractable cable that one can clip to the sun visor or a lapel to give better sound quality when making calls.

On one side there is a miniUSB socket for charging, either via a mains charger or the cigar lighter adapter provided, and a full size USB socket that allows a loop through for charging the phone with a stubby cable. it easily holds an iphone or a HTC Wildfire, even with cases on, but it could only just fit my (5″) OPPO Find 5 in naked, and my Samsung Galaxy Note was just too much of a mouthful. The product description states, “Adjustable holder accommodates most smartphones (most even when they have cases on)”, which is true, but if you’re one of the growing number of people who own a huge phone you may want to check first. The phone is held between two foam covered, spring loaded jaws. A lot easier than taking the whole mount off each time. There are two buttons that release the holder when squeezed together, meaning that when leaving the car the valuable bit and the phone can be taken, leaving the plastic arm behind. On the end of the arm is a socket that the phone holder clips into. The mounting arm is strong and the windscreen sucker holds nicely. The Minikit is extremely well built, giving a feeling of quality and the confidence that it won’t spit your precious phone into the passenger footwell when pretending to be The Stig going round a bend.
Will only fit phone with up to about a 5″ screen.Will the £49.99 price tag save me the hassle of buying that Mercedes with the fancy stereo? Let’s hope so!
It’s intelligent, doing the same job as a Bluetooth enabled car. The Parrot Minikit Smart car kit is more than just a mobile phone car dock.
