Any reviews on a Parrot Kit

Post by FarmerPug »

This venturi mini bluetooth thing in my car although i have sung praises about it many times really is pissing me off, this is the 4th one replaced under warranty heres the 4 ones ive had and their individual problems:
1st: Scrollwheel did not scroll, replaced by ebay seller
2nd: Plastic casing completely disintegrated, cracks everywhere and the bits falling off
3rd: Microphone or some internals causing the noise of wires sparking, call quality woeful
4th: the current one, plastic casing going the same way as first
The makers i must say deal very quickly at sending out a new one, but even so its a nusance constantly changing, soon ill have spent the value of it on the postage deleveries back to the factory, its a great device function wise and when using a working one also great, but these problems are enough im sending it back for a refund and buying a proper bluetooth kit, but has anyone got one, was it hard to put in.
