Good radio for the price
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Just about all my car plug ins work. You must get the maestro for most everything to work. The radio itself is great for the price. It has a lot of useful apps. The radio is nice and powerful too. I had to upgrade my speakers form my factory 2016 Chevy Colorado to get a lot better sound.

Great radio.
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Taken some time getting used to it. Daughter likes it. Had to buy more adapters / plug ins than expected. Installation was a 2 appointment process because of this. Still learning all the functions. Wish would have spent more time but felt rushed.

Mmm not worth the price
||Posted . Owned for 6 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.A bit too costly especially with no back up camera. It sounds great but I also had to bye new speakers. I can’t do much with it without a camera or the app’s.

Easy to use
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.It freezes up a lot though but easy to use. Waze sometimes stops and doesn't show turn by turn direction.

My radio review
||Posted . Owned for 1 year when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I love some features and hate others. The reason that I got this radio is so that I didn't have to use my phone for gps when traveling and listening to music. The gps won't stay on while DRIVING..

Good buy for the price!
||Posted . Owned for 2 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This was a great gift for my wife and now with the hands free law, my wife can talk on the phone without worries and listen to Pandora on her drive. Her phone’s features are all at her disposal on the great touch screen.

Tuner, Navigation, CD, and DVD player is great.
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The product was affordable that forfilled my meds for my auto. The Geek Squad auto technician (Maurice) installed the product nicely and took the time to explain the functions. Maurice also gets 5 stars.

Nice replacement car stereo
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The FJ Cruiser comes with an absolutely worthless car stereo. Especially from a GUI perspective. The orange and black screen is impossible to read in daylight. This new JVC unit has a bright easy-to-read display.
I would recommend this to a friend- Cons mentioned:Screen brightness
Rated 3 out of 5 stars
Car radio - beware of glare
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Not my favorite. The screen glares - at times can’t see the information. Also, doesn’t dim well at night. So it’s bright.

Smarter than ME!
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I'm having a little trouble figuring out how to make it all work. Possibly if I was from a younger generation it would come naturally? I'll have my grand kids help me get it all programmed,,,,

BIG ANT REVIEW
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Overall, the product is very up to date and useful. However, the only setback is using the cord from the radio through the glove box....too bulky.

Great for older Cars!
||Posted . Owned for 6 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This was a gift for my kid for their older car that doesn't have Bluetooth or handsfree options. With the Android Auto and Apple CarPlay options it's great and makes sure they are following the handsfree rules!

Upgrade your ride

Expensive car radio with features I don't use.
||Posted . Owned for 1 year when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Seems like it works for at least 13 months. Android auto is inconsistent, and therefore not a valuable feature. This feature requires a USB wired connection to my phone. This radio was expensive compared to so many others, but installation was included. I didn't have to install it myself. It allows the handsfree car phone service that is required in Georgia. Since the CoViD pandemic, we don't drive much, so the JVC radio is not being used very much.
