    CNET Review

    April 7, 2008

    The Good: The Sony MEX-BT5100 combines intuitive hands-free calling with a broad range of audio support, wrapping them in a stylish and user-friendly package.

    The Bad: The built-in phonebook accepts too few entries for our liking, while the digital audio navigation could do with some improvements.

    The Bottom Line: The MEX-BT5100 is a good all-in-one option for those thinking of investing in a in a decent stereo and a hands-free speakerphone.
