Holding a phone against your ear while trying to drive is a numbskull move. If your car is not equipped with Bluetooth, or you drive a lot of rentals, the Parrot Minikit Neo is a best bet for hands-free calls. It offers the best features found in factory-installed units, such as contact list integration and voice command.

Starting at: $79.95

The good: The Parrot Minikit Neo supports Bluetooth hands-free calling, address book sync, and audio streaming. Magic Words voice command allows for the initiation of calls without touching the unit. NFC takes all of the guesswork out of pairing. The Neo App Suite boosts convenience and customization.

The bad: Audio from the space-saving NXT speaker is good, but not great.

The bottom line: The Parrot Minikit Neo combines the great call quality that we've come to expect from Parrot devices with advanced technologies that make it safer to use and easier to live with.
