Parrot Android Classic - Anyone have one or use one?

[dom9]

All,

I've been looking for a single din sat nav (very rare these days) and came across the Parrot Android Classic a while ago but couldn't find one anywhere...



They have a couple of ex-demo units at my local car audio place at a bargain price (£100), with the GPS receiver, microphones etc.

At that money - It's possibly worth a punt for the potential it has. I believe there were some software issues (there are updates available) and the GPS antenna is meant to be hit and miss (though a 'better' one is available on eBay for £30, apparently) but has anyone used one or owned one?

Interested to hear owners/ users feedback. It had very good reviews a few years back, when it was released, and it would only be going in my Clio 172, which has a completely non-working radio anyway... Worth a go?

Interesting that you are on the latest firmware... I assumed that would be better for map/ software updates but there seem to be some issues with it from the Parrot forums and some people seem to think the RDS/ Radio functions are to blame.

I really wanted mine for maps, radio and handsfree. For £100 - it has to be worth a punt I'd have thought.

Might take a week or two to install, looking at my schedule!
