[Upgrade] Wireless CarPlay/Android Auto, 7 Inch Double Din Car Stereo with LCD Touchscreen, FM/AM Car Play Radio with Bluetooth 5.1 Handsfree, Type-C Charge, Phone-Link, HD Whaterproof Backup Camera

I purchased this unit for my 2010 Hyundai Elantra as a replacement for an aging Clarion after-market stereo. My goal was to add CarPlay to my vehicle so that I could eliminate both the Clarion and a 1st gen Amazon Echo Auto.I also purchased a Metra double-din installation kit for my vehicle, as a previous owner had replaced my factory kit to accommodate the single-din Clarion. I re-used the wiring harness from the Clarion stereo. Cabling was straightforward. The only modifications that I had to make were: (1) widening one of the screw holes on the Metra mounting kit, and (2) using a Dremel tool to modify the trim panel to fit my car (removing the top entirely and trimming around the edges... the photo shows the scratches in the lower right of the trim due to my not-so-steady hands). Overall, the installation was easy and straightforward, and I'm pleased with the appearance.I did not install the reverse camera kit due to time and weather, but I intend to install it at a future date.I tested the stereo prior to reassembling the dashboard and found the touchscreen to be more responsive than expected and the sound quality to be on-par or better than the Clarion stereo (using factory speakers and no amplifier). As noted by others, I did notice a low, almost imperceptible "clicking" noise through the speakers when the engine is not running and a low volume setting. I do not notice the noise during normal operations. The stereo connected with my iPhone XR using wireless CarPlay without issue.PROS:- Amazing price for what the stereo provides- Easy installation (with separate mounting kit)- Slim profile allows for easy cable management behind the stereoCONS:- No volume "knob". Turning volume up and down at traffic lights will take some getting used to as I have to glance at the touch screen to locate the volume buttons.- No "detail" in the manual beyond basic installation descriptions. I am still fumbling my way through the interface and menu with little guidance beyond "try this and see what happens".I will give this stereo a year and possibly purchase another for my aging Ford Excursion.

Installed on a C5 2004 Corvette.First off, this is a lot more than expected. I wanted a double din android auto capable radio. This would be my 3rd attempt to find one and install. I replaced my old single din radio, so I needed to also purchase a dash molding piece that worked for my car and an OEM-1 Pac adapter to help convert my Bose sound to new header.After preping my car (disassemble of old system), I was able to rewire my car harness with the new radio harness with no issue. The instructions were clear, and made it easy for me to follow. Once installed, the sound was great, giving you the typical 4 sound options (Jazz, Pop, Classic, News) with a custom options too. You can change your home screen to set options, and the interface to set options was easy to follow. The android auto wireless and BT connected flawlessly, and I was very please with the screen touch action. Going back from apps was a bit hard at first, but it was more about understanding the go back icon than a touch respons issue. Google maps, XM radio, text and notifications all work great with android auto. I added a external mic for my voice command and taking hands-free phone calls. I don't have steering wheel controls, but this radio has the option and instructions for you of you do.Installing the back up camera was very easy to follow the instructions. I still have to adjust the camera more for my preferences, but once connected to the radio it worked as expected and a clear picture.Over all, for the money you get a great radio. I give this 5 stars because it worked as promised, and gave my 2004 corvette a massive upgrade to 2023 interior comfort. However, this is not a Pioneer, JVC, Kenwood or Bose radio, but with the OEM-Pac1 it produced the Bose sound you expect from a higher priced system.

So, I'm very techie. This is a POS. Does not connect via Bluetooth or "wireless" mirroring. I have a Samsung Galaxy S10+ and a Galaxy A02 both running Android 12. Trying to connect via Bluetooth it says, "couldn't connect." The wireless mirroring gives a QR code. I scanned, installed, tried to connect and it will not connect. With the oem phone cable it will display onto the stereo but whoopie! No frills here. Limited to what is sent to the stereo display. Not social media, no video media apps, i.e Netflix, YouTube, Amazon. So what's the point?? The clock is an ugly analog clock that cannot be changed to digital. They display can be dimmed but not turned off. When Screensaver is set, the stereo display turned to a bright white clock that can't be blacked out, so if you were driving at night you're stuck with a white clock unless you go to settingd and turn down the brightness. There's no quick screen off option like my other stereo has. Do your research and choose something better. I can't understand how this stereo has high ratings.
