Pioneer MVH-355BT Product Review

In today’s age of digital music formats (MP3, WMA, etc.) the need for CD-Mech Head-Units seems to be dropping everywhere, this seems to be happening so fast that it wouldn’t surprise me if CD’s were obsolete in the next 5 years or even less. Pioneer have made the MVH Series of Head-Units with this in mind, making them capable of playing most if not nearly every audio format available via the USB/iPod, AUX and Bluetooth functions on the NEW MVH-355BT.

As usual with Pioneer the display is simple but very functional making it easy to read both at day and night, with a phone button on the face-plate making it very easy to make and receive calls via the built-in Parrot Hands-Free Kit.

With the Pioneer MVH-355BT having a built-in Parrot Hands-Free Kit, you can make and receive calls without touching your phone with the same clarity that Parrot is renown for and with the added bonus of having the option of streaming music from any Bluetooth device.

Overall this is a great sounding unit that is ideal for anyone with a Smart-Phone that is full of music or even someone that is after a Parrot Hands-Free Kit at a very reasonable price! Another thing to take note of is that it has a 1-amp USB allowing it to not only charge your Android or iPhone faster but also play music from USB HDD devices that can be powered by USB! If you can live without CD’s this is the Head-Unit for you!
