Smartphone compatibility

 

Whether you’re making calls, finding your way from A to B or listening to music, your smartphone plays a big part in your life. And now Sony is making it easy to use, even when you’re behind the wheel.

MirrorLink™ seamlessly connects smartphones with in-car audio systems

Seamless interaction with MirrorLink™

MirrorLink ™ is a technology standard developed by the Car Connectivity Consortium (CCC) that seamlessly connects your smartphone with your vehicle’s information and entertainment system. Approved mobile applications and content are ‘mirrored’ onto the display of your in-dash head unit, enabling you to interact safely with your smartphone from behind the wheel without looking at or touching the phone itself. Simply use the steering wheel buttons, audio system and head unit display.

The XAV-601BT system offers seamless smartphone compatibility

Reassuringly familiar

Climb aboard and hook up your Android™ or Symbian mobile device* with a USB cable. The XAV-601BT system from Sony instantly recognises your smartphone, launching an optimised view of the phone screen on the in-dash head unit’s large, high-resolution touchscreen. The phone’s display is re-formatted for clearer, safer viewing with large, easy-to-use buttons to minimise driver distraction.

*Compatible with MirrorLink™ certified smartphones only. For more details visit http://www.sony.co.uk/support/en

Make the most of your smartphone with in-car audio from Sony

Easy, safe and convenient

Make and receive calls safely and interact with your smartphone’s media collection and compatible apps. Call up contacts from your phonebook and make hands-free calls using voice recognition. Hear tweets and social media updates read out as you drive with automatic text-to-speech conversion. Get directions from your smartphone’s navigation app displayed on the head unit display*. And charge your phone as you drive so that when you arrive, it’s good to go.
