    CarPlay for our 2008 Odyssey!

    We still love our 2008 Honda Odyssey, but were eager to update the electronics to include CarPlay. This Pioneer went on sale, so we jumped in. Integration was very simple and the features on this unit go on for days! Love having the backup camera on a nice big screen and HD Radio adds lots of new stations here in Nashville. The sound quality of the unit is awesome. It's gotten many compliments from my wife, who spends a lot of time behind the wheel. The startup is definitely slower than the non-smart factory unit, but not terrible. Maybe :15 sec? I used the auto-eq and level adjustment with a mic and it made some slight improvements. Sounded good already, so this wasn't a big change. The default EQ of "powerful" is actually really good. I tend to prefer flatter sound that is more natural, but this works really well. Of course CarPlay is great. Having used it in various rental cars, I was glad to have it at our fingertips for our holiday travel this year. Worked flawlessly. We still use lots of CDs from the library, so having an in-dash disc player was important. We are not using the DVD feature, so no comment there. I've definitely recommended this one to all my friends since we installed it. Big upgrade for older vehicles!

    Overall Awesome Head Unit For The Price

    I installed this in my 2009 Jeep Wrangler Sahara Unlimited to replace the factory radio. I also installed the iDatalink Maestro module to retain all of the factory original features and was required in order to control front to rear fade as I kept the factory Infinity amplifier. The Maestro also gives me an engine gauge screen on the new Pioneer, tire pressure, door status, battery voltage, and engine error code display/reset via the ODB connector. I also replaced all of the factory speakers. JBL Harman components in the front, JBL coaxials in sound bar, and a Pioneer low profile sub in the rear. Finally I also installed a backup camera which is displayed on the Pioneer screen. So far I love the Pioneer head unit. Amazing sound quality, great features. I have a Samsung Galaxy S9 and the Android Auto is really cool. Allows me to run Waze navigation and other apps like Pandora when my phone is plugged into the Pioneer USB port. My only complaints, thus the 4 stars: (1) Wish there were two USB ports, keep switching between USB thumb drive loaded with music files and my phone for navigation. (2) Control buttons on left side are rather small. Overall a great radio and great price! Was $450 but got it on sale for $299. TIP: The Metra dash install/trim kit I used has very soft/cheap plastic, cracks easily. I've read that Scosche makes a better quality one and will pursue that brand for future installs.

    Great radio, works well, sounds great!

    This does everything the way I would expect it to, and works well. The layout is pretty intuitive. So far has been very reliable. I have an android phone and the Android Auto feature works very well, much nicer than just using a phone holder! Bluetooth also rock solid and good range. Compared to the stock radio everything is louder and seems clearer, to be fair I didn't have a 3.5mm or bluetooth on the factory radio. Big difference though is the HD radio, definitely a better signal than what I was getting. The screen is visible most of the time. I say this because when the sun is shining and I have the sunroof open the screen gets really washed out, I can still read it though. I was completely unable to see the factory display in this condition so it's an improvement for me. My main complaint is that it does not have physical forward/back buttons. If you have steering wheel controls this isn't an issue. I do find that I have to take my eyes off the road for a split second sometimes to hit the on screen button. I'm not saying it is a deal breaker, but physical buttons that I could locate without looking would be an improvement. The backup camera is also working as it should which is great because I used to have no clue what was going on behind my car... Overall great radio and would recommend.
