Overall Auto Express rating

4.0

Best price: £429.99

Seamless navigation between screens helps this refined Kenwood into second place. Like the Sony Best Buy, we found it worked best with an Android device, but the Mirror High-Definition Link is just as polished.

It’s achieved by connecting your phone to the set-up’s HDMI input, plus the system has a DAB receiver.
