7" Double Din Car Stereo Compatible with Wireless Apple CarPlay & Android Auto, 240W 4.2-Channel Dual Subwoofer Ports, Touchscreen, Bluetooth 5.3, Mirrorlink, Backup Camera, FM/AM Car Radio

Writing an unbiased review about this head unit – no strings attached. I believe an important review can provide others with feedback and clarity about the product they're buying. With that being said, my overall impression of this unit was very good. While this brand might seem subpar compared to big names like Pioneer, Kenwood, and Alpine, it offers about 90% of the functionality you'll need, including front and rear camera capabilities, radio, wireless Apple CarPlay, and Android Auto. For me, the main attraction was wireless CarPlay for my Apple iPhone. Occasionally, I use the radio to adjust sound quality and settings; I don't need navigation since people nowadays prefer using their phones for that. Another cool feature is the mirror functionality. Unexpectedly, I found myself watching Netflix or YouTube on the screen during road trips to keep passengers or my kid company, despite the potential danger of watching movies while driving. Sound quality was exceptionally crisp – noticeably better than my factory head unit. The screen is ridiculously bright, even at half brightness, which is cool for navigating during the day but can be uncomfortable to adjust at night. I wish it had an auto-dim feature. There's a very small lag when swiping or pressing, though most users won't notice or care. It's not as fluid as Pioneer or Alpine, but it doesn't bother me. Customer service was unexpectedly on point. I contacted them about a custom boot logo, wallpapers, and firmware update, and they had everything sorted within a day – the easiest process I've experienced for any head unit updates and custom boot logos. I'd give this head unit a 8.5/10. It's affordable, has all the functionality I need, and even came with a backup camera that I haven't installed yet but desperately need for my car. Would I buy this head unit again? Most definitely and I would recommend this to others who are looking for a budget unit for their cars. I will try to provide another follow up in a few weeks to see how things fair up to daily usage. 1 mo update: So far, I have had zero issues, and it works great. It instantly connects to the phone upon ignition, and the radio works flawlessly, and functions as expected. However, I can't say the same for the backup camera because I have been super lazy to install it so I can't comment on that part. Honestly, it still feels like a new car, at least compared to what I had with the old nostalgic retro buttons. It truly feels revamped.

After 23 years of use, the factory infotainment system in my 2002 Tacoma stopped working. I began looking for an extremely simple replacement radio as I did not intend to upgrade speakers or add an additional subwoofer. After lots of reviews, this stereo kept showing up in my recommended items from Amazon. I figured for the price it would be hard to go wrong. I ordered the vehicle specific within harness adapters for my year/make/model and this head unit. Wiring was extremely easy with the adapters. Installation is very vehicle dependent, but once the dash was apart and the old radio was out the factory radio brackets bolted right to the unit. I dot not need a bezel around the receiver as it fit perfectly. I requested the updated files and a new boot image. Customer support was extremely quick to respond and provide all of the needed files. They recommend not using a USB drive that is larger than 32 gigs, and the 32 gig drive I used worked fine. Files updated quickly and I have a new boot screen. The backup camera is crisp and works well. If there is a single warning I would provide anyone considering this unit it would be to measure the length of the backup camera cord if you own a pickup. I routed mine through the firewall and then followed the frame to the center of the rear bumper. I only had a few inches of excess wire to spare - so a full size long bed truck might be a stretch (02 Tacoma Crew Cab for reference.) Apple car play works flawless and is Bluetooth. No need to connect via USB. So far the functionality has been flawless. I cannot speak to longevity as it’s only recently installed, but if I get several trouble free years out of this unit I cannot imagine a better bang for the buck. I wouldn’t anticipate audiophiles flocking to this as an option, but if you are looking for a fantastic replacement radio that drops into a double din and gives you a backup camera I sincerely doubt you can do better for the price than this unit.

I bought this for my 2010 Nissan Sentra. The install was very simple just make sure to buy wiring adapters so that you don't have to splice all the wires. With an adapter it is just plug and play. The holes lined up perfectly and the fitment looks OEM. The Bluetooth on the stereo is very easy and fast. The backup camera is a headache to run and hide the wire from the back of the car to the from but the camera itself is very good. If you want to change the startup screen you can't do it yourself but just messaging the customer service, they tell you step by step what to do and make it a very simple process. They also respond quite fast. I have only had it for a month now but for just $120 it is very good for the price.

9/25/24 update I've taken all I can stand of this stereo. It constantly loses connection, some times it will reconnect, when it doesn't it won't let you switch to radio, it will keep trying to reconnect ever few seconds then go back to the stereo, then try to reconnect, then back. The only way to stop it is to shut the car off. Now I can't talk on the phone as no sound will come out. I have to switch my phone to use the speaker in the phone rather then through the stereo. I absolutely regret buying this junk. Get a Jenson, not much more and then one in my other car has worked great for the last 2 years. Not a bad stereo, just not a good one, not even for the money. First, after installation I found that I cannot have navigation and listen to local radio. I can on my cheap Jenson and my factory stereos with Android auto. The company refunded some of my money so I would keep the stereo. For my use I could accept this. You cannot plug in and use Android auto but it will mirror your phone. This is annoying since that connection seems to be more reliable and I still need to charge my phone so I still have to plug it in. The wireless connects great when it connects, when it doesn't it is the most annoying thing there is. It will keep trying, every 30 seconds or so it will shut off the radio and try again, then you get the radio back, then it will try again, then back to radio. Even selecting radio in the menu, it will keep doing that. I would not recommend this stereo, I am torn hoping it will fail so I can justify ordering a Jenson like I have in my Mustang that I plug into rather than wireless. Facebook is the only way to reach the company which is also annoying, they don't have an actual web site. I get this is a cheap stereo but its not that much cheaper than a name brand low end stereo. The main reason I went for this was for the knob to control the volume rather than buttons only. I'm not really impressed with the knob, it feels like it will come off any time.

First off I'd like to start by saying the customized wallpaper and boot logo are a fantastic thing. When emailing the company they responded quickly and were also accurate. I bench tested the unit before installing it. The directions are slightly not clear but you can muddle your way through them to make sure that everything is updated. The radio seems to operate smoothly . Looks good, sound/power output is mediocre. But seems like a pretty decent value. I have two complaints though. If you enable Bluetooth / Android audio and connect it to your phone. The second that you put that phone in that car, it automatically enables Bluetooth on your phone. I don't want to use Bluetooth automatically. I want to be able to choose when to use it and this radio continues to send the Bluetooth on Signal and Android Auto on Signal to my phone which is very annoying. The most annoying complaint though that I have with this radio is the power antenna. The second that I turn the car on. The power antenna goes up. If I'm not using AM FM radio stations the power antenna should stay down. They have their remote wire for an amplifier tied into the power antenna wire. So the second that you turn the car on the power antenna goes up. I've owned multiple aftermarket head units and anytime that the FM AM radio is not on the power antenna is in the down position. I hate HATE, HATE, HATEEEEEE! That the power antenna goes up the second that I turn the key on. This is a major design flaw in this system. It could be easily programmed out. Or if they just spent another 12 cents they could have put a secondary wire in for the remote amplifier. That way it could operate the way that it's supposed to. The way that a factory radio operates. I'd give this radio five stars if I didn't have to deal with the antenna going up all the time. There's times where I want the car to have clean sleek looking Body Lines and I can't do that with this stupid antenna that pops up the second that I turn the key on. I did contact them about this. And they said there's no way to fix it. There is a way to fix it, and that should have been in the design process to begin with. I do like the backup camera function, it's a great addition to add to a 30-year-old car that's not easy to see out.

I bought this radio for my 2012 prius C. It came with installation instructions and operating instructions. This was my first radio install, so it took me a few hours before it was complete. TLDR; The radio works great. Android auto works well, my speakers sound just as good as before but with more customization and control. Customer service responded timely and I was able to update my radio and put on a Toyota boot logo. Tuning and programing the radio was very easy. Bluetooth works well, touch screen is nice and responsive, and I always enjoyed having a knob to adjust volume even if the steering wheel controls can do it as well. The radio comes with a remote control that takes the little circular batteries, but I don't find the remote necessary for my needs. If there is a feature you dislike you can choose to turn it off like auto connecting android auto. Like the other reviews the screen is very bright during night time. I had adjusted it to almost it's lowest setting. In the instructions it tells you that you will need to purchase: 1. Stereo Wiring harness for your vehicle. I used Red Wolf stereo harness for 1992-2019 Toyota. 2. Antenna adapter. I used Anina radio adapter for 2010-2019 Toyota. 2. Dash kit. I purchased the Metra 95-8239B Double DIN installation kit. 3. If your car has them, a steering wheel control (SWC) interface. I purchased the Axxess ASWC-1 version. There is a product that made my install incredibly easier as there was no soldering. WAGO 221-2401 Lever nuts compact splicing inline wires. I also used a wire stripping tool so I could tap into the pre-existing wires as the instructions for the SWC needs specific connections depending on your vehicle, and if you choose to install the rear camera included you'll have to tap into the rear reverse light for power. The instructions that comes with the radio is great and simple and guided me to a easy installation.

If you don’t have CarPlay or Android audio in your car, this is the upgrade for you. It’s a great unit, installs easily (with the suggested wiring and bezel kit sold separately for your car.) Not only does it have all the modern features you want and a backup cam to boot, tech support is fantastic. I wanted a custom boot screen and they took my graphics and sent me an installer file to add it, so now my unit is personally customized. The audio is good, no you’re not gonna rock the whole block unless you have an external amp, but to push stock speakers it does great. One thing I’ve seen users complain about is it gets stuck on a “loading” screen when it first syncs with the phone. What I figured out is happening is in my driveway my phone only has 1 bar of 4g service so YT music can’t bring up whatever was playing last because the internet is slow. (When I get to 5g service it works fine) So I just cue up my playlist inside while I’m on WiFi and let it play the 1st song while I’m walking out to the car and everything works fine. I honestly didn’t expect personal service from a company selling units at this price. But they treated me better than dealing with Sony or JVC in the past.

I have not installed this 7” Double Din Car Stereo yet, but I wanted to share my initial impressions based on the features and build quality out of the box. The unit appears well-designed with a responsive 7-inch touchscreen that feels modern and easy to navigate. One of the biggest selling points for me was the wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto compatibility, which should make hands-free calling, navigation, and media playback much more convenient once installed. It also includes Bluetooth 5.3, which is a nice upgrade for faster and more stable connections, along with mirror link support and built-in FM/AM radio. The added backup camera input is another useful feature for improving safety when reversing, especially for older vehicles. The 240W 4.2-channel output with dual subwoofer ports is impressive on paper and should provide solid sound performance once paired with the right speakers. The overall layout of the controls and interface seems user-friendly and straightforward. At this stage, I can’t comment on performance during real use, but the feature set is very promising. I’m looking forward to having it installed and seeing how it performs in daily driving.
