I have now personally switched to using the Parrot MiniKit Slim as my bluetooth speakerphone of choice. It’s an extraordinary device!
Read my Parrot Minikit Slim Review below:
Quite simply the best bluetooth speakerphone that I have played with this year (2008)! The Parrot Minikit Slim fuses both style and functionality into one device.
I loved the ways it allows you to access your mobile phones contact list: it can either pull your whole list from your phone (capable of 2500) or access on demand via bluetooth. Being able to sort through your contacts via the dial and text-to-speech was an ingenius capability that Parrot included.
Using voice-dial is also a cinch given that there is no device/voice training required. You can use voice-commands to dial someone from your address book as soon as you pull it out of the box!
With 10 hours talk time and approximately 280+ hours standby time, you’ll only need to fully charge the Parrot Minikit Slim once a month; to help you with this task, it comes with both a car and PC USB charger.
The Parrot Minikit Slim also looks a lot less obtrusive than other bluetooth speakerphones – the speaker makes up most of the device and there are only 3 buttons, therefore making it very easy to operate.
I was particularly impressed with the sound quality; there was no echo whatsoever! People on the other end of the telephone conversation commented how ‘normal’ the voice call sounded and were surprised when informed that I was actually using a bluetooth speakerphone.
Very proud to be one of the first selling these in the Australian market. Well done Parrot!
