Excellent Radio!!
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I love this radio!! I was very concern that the USB would not play MP4 files because I have seen others that didn't. However, this radio plays them all. The picture quality is great too. This is an excellent radio at a very good price.

Great stereo, easy user interaction
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Installed in my 2005 Chevy 2500, and the fit is great. This stereo is great, easy to setup, easy to install. Switching between listening modes is simple and effortless. The lack of buttons makes the appearance clean and doesn’t hold dust like having the buttons does.

It ended up being incredible, the sound is great right out of the box the install is a breeze, and having the option to toggle between front and rear cameras is AWESOME!

Excellency sound quality but a little buggy
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Overall I’m very happy with this radio but it’s not perfect (but which radio is?). When I plug in my iPhone, it displays at the bottom CarPlay connected but it doesn’t go away. I have to push the home button then select the radio again to get the message to clear. Also, when a call comes in, it switches to CarPlay but after you hang up, it keeps displaying the last call. It should switch back to the original source that was playing. Small issues but I thought I would share for anyone who is considering this radio.

Save your money. It’s trash
||Posted . Owned for 10 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This product is trash. My backup camera stopped working correctly immediately upon install and shortly thereafter stopped working completely. Half the time CarPlay doesn’t work. The whole thing is buggy. They removed a bunch of buttons from my dashboard for the install because the factory volume buttons, etc. aren’t compatible with this thing. They hung an ugly microphone by my visor because the car microphone compatible. The whole thing is inelegant, ugly, and dysfunctional.

Alpine car play

Good but not amazing.
||Posted . Owned for 11 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The dimmer function doesn’t work all that well. Display options in general are limited. It requires you to have the parking break on to change many settings. Overall it works fine but I’d never get this one again. It’s missing options that I didn’t think would be left out of a stereo in 2022

Great Receiver
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Definitely worth the purchase. With the dash kit adapter, it fit my 2014 Dodge Avenger perfectly after being installed by Best Buy. The only thing I noticed is that sometimes the transition from Bluetooth to Apple Car Play isn’t the smoothest and the screen has a slight glitch but clears us within a few seconds. Bluetooth automatically connects after a few seconds which is great. Especially when I went from a Bluetooth FM transmitter. The system also amplified my speaker system which sounds even better now.

Only one drawback.
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The only drawback for this is that you have to plug it into your phone to use CarPlay.

Nice Replacement
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I like the radio, works great. Pros: Apple Carplay/ Andriod Auto Nice big buttons simple navigation Cons: -Don't like the Double pull on the hand break to access the settings -If you have an improved auto system from the Manufacture the system does not support all the channels (may take creative wiring to get the phone calls to work) -some of the buttons in the apple car play don't show correctly with a change of information. Overall I like it.

Nice receiver, good sound, limited customization.
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The receiver works well and is a good fit in my 2013 Sierra. Best Buy installed for free, but the +$100.00 adapter/harness kit was required and XM tuner was additional $50.00; so it was more money than Crutchfield, but no labor on my part. Two firmware updates since purchase have the unit working as it should. Customization is very limited: no startup screen, background or menu adjustments are possible. Wired Airplay works well, better since iOS 13 update on my iPhone 8. Seems well made and sounds good. No real complaints. Happy with purchase.
