Bluetooth carkits aren’t exactly what we’d call exciting. They all do the same thing – connect to your phone via Bluetooth and let you make and receive handsfree calls. Some of them even let you make calls using your voice.
The Sudio Vogue’s claim to fame is that it’s Australia’s first “coloured” Bluetooth handsfree speakerphone.It comes in a range of colours, including metallic blue, pink, black and white. You get 10 hours worth of talk time and 480 hours standby on a single charge, plus regular call features like one touch answer, call waiting, last number redial mute and call reject.
Like I said: Exciting.
Still, even though it’s not the most riveting product, it’s priced well at just $89. And sometimes the cheap and useful products that come in a range of colours are the best ones. Sometimes.

Bought a sudio Silhouette. Baaaad decision. No standby time so drive with phone charger cable wound around mirror permanently. Red blinking “power status” light leaves me with red blinking eyesight after long night drives. Auto reconnect after time away from vehicle? Hoho you jest. If I forget to manually reconnect on re-entry and get busted for unlawful phone use – who pays? Score 1/10. It does actually clip to the sunvisor. Cheap gets cheap I guess

I brought a Sudio Vogue and I don’t like it. You have to hold the button for 6 seconds everytime you get back in the car to turn it back on. The sound quality from the speaker is crap. It is not very loud and I have to turn the volume up all the way, which results in distortion. I did have a sudio halo which was a great product but it is no longer available.
