In this review, I take a look at the CarlinKit 5 Mini SE Wireless CarPlay Adapter. You can buy this adapter for $35.99 from Amazon US 👉🏻 amzn.to/3XtOb96, for £39.00 from Amazon UK 👉🏻 amzn.to/4g0S0cc, and for €39.00 from Amazon DE 👉🏻 amzn.to/47fgCLl. It can also be had for $30 from the official CarlinKit Store 👉🏻 bit.ly/carlinkitminise by entering my coupon code "Anthony Barker" at checkout.
TLDR: The CarlinKit 5 Mini SE is a compact, affordable wireless CarPlay adapter that offers decent performance and features. It has a mini design with dual USB-A and USB-C connectors and can connect to wireless CarPlay in around 17 seconds. The adapter includes customisable settings like audio delay and WiFi frequency, and supports GPS pass-through, though with some limitations. It improves on CarlinKit's previous 3.0 Mini adapter, and it's a good option for those looking for a solid all-round wireless CarPlay solution.
