PARROT MINIKIT SMART

The Parrot MINIKIT Smart is a Bluetooth hands-free kit featuring a Smartphone holder. It can be attached to the windshield or dashboard, enabling you to access the navigation and cell phone features while keeping your hands on the wheel at all times. You can use the MINIKIT Smart to recharge your phone via a USB socket port. Its numerous metal components and chrome finishes combine robustness and elegance. The Parrot MINIKIT Smart can easily switch from portrait to landscape mode to suit any configuration. Using a Smartphone’s hands--free and navigation features in your car is now as easy as ever.

Making calls couldn’t be easier

The first time you use the Parrot MINIKIT Smart, it synchronizes its phonebook with your cell’s phonebook. The entries in your MINIKIT Smart phonebook are then effortlessly updated every time you connect. Its integrated speech synthesis function means that you hear the device saying your contact’s name and you confirm that you want to make the call without taking your eyes off the road. You can also make calls via speech synthesis: press the green button, say the name of the person you want to call… and the MINIKIT Smart starts dialing automatically. If a person has several phone numbers, you can choose the number you wish to call by saying “mobile”, “work” or “home”.

Find your way every time

When you connect your phone to the MINIKIT Smart, it is automatically connected via Bluetooth. The verbal instructions from your navigation system are transmitted with top sound quality via the 2W speaker. When you receive a call, the navigation instructions are interrupted automatically and then resumed when you end your call (This function depends on the phone used). Thanks to its large holder, you will be able to see your Smartphone screen all the time. Now, you can follow your journey even more easily than using a car GPS system.

A completely versatile solution

\The Parrot MINIKIT Smart was designed to adapt to most Smartphones, no matter what OS they are running: Android, Symbian, Apple iOS, BlackberryOS etc. Its adjustable arm can accommodate and hold any phone up to 2.75" wide, while its suction foot ensures that it can be attached absolutely securely to the windshield or dashboard. It comes with an intuitive user interface featuring two telephone buttons and a rotary button. Its integrated lithium-ion battery supports a battery life of more than a week. It can be recharged via a 12V cigarette lighter and can also recharge your Smartphone using the USB port. Last but not least, it is 100% Bluetooth compatible and works with all brands of Smartphones and Bluetooth devices.

Bluetooth wireless technology enables voice and data to be sent via a short-distance radio link. It connects a wide range of electronic equipment without requiring additional cables. Furthermore, it extends the communication possibilities for mobile phones and a large number of devices. The Bluetooth stereo (A2DP) profile uses the same radio frequencies and can be used to send music tracks from one device to another.
