Parrot Minikit Slim Bluetooth Car Kit

What’s the big deal?
Spending long hours in the car does not mean you need to miss out on important business calls. Be smart and use a hands free kit, like this Parrot Minikit Slim Bluetooth Car Kit.

Who’s the gadget for?
If you're always on the phone, and still need to be on the phone while driving. Be responsible with this nifty device. And you do not have to pay that much - the RRP is R899.

Our 2 cents worth…
It has a slim and stylish design that clips easily onto your visor. There is automatic Bluetooth pairing. While the audio is rather good, noise cancellation did not work all that well.
