For the money you can’t go wrong! Make sure you purchase the appropriate harness and this will be an easy install!! I literally disassembled my 4Runner’s dash and it was a plug and play after the audio guy at Best Buy spliced the harness that came in the box along with the harness I purchased at Best Buy! The sound quality is great and all the features of Bluetooth usb work flawlessly! The USB port charges ur phone super quick! You will not be disappointed with the product.

I purchased this as a gift for my sisters car and she couldn’t have been happier with this stereo! The installation was easy and the features are fantastic! The Bluetooth is extremely clear and functions are easy to maneuver. Defiantly recommend this especially for the price!

Install was straight forward. Picks up local radio stations clearly. Bluetooth makes connecting smartphones very easy. Takes a few minutes to figure out how to transition between 2 connected phones. Otherwise functionality is pretty intuitive. Should have replaced the factory radio years ago.

Lets face it, we all need Bluetooth connectivity in our cars. We rely on our phones for more than just phone conversation, and music is no exception. I have a 1996 Integra that had a broken and outdated stereo. Being that I was going to travel for school, I needed something with Bluetooth to be able to talk hands-free, especially here in California.
Well, this JVC in-dash was just the right option for me. The price was right, and the quality is there. I did not opt for the "professional installation" and chose to buy the adapting harness for my car and do it myself. You really can't screw up since the wiring is clearly labeled on the stereo and the adapting harness. The only difficulty you might encounter is when you are removing the stereo panel. You have to be very careful not to break clips or you'll find yourself with a saggy panel.
The sound quality is perfect for my needs and the looks are great. It does have a removable faceplate, which is a must to prevent theft. One thing that I find annoying is that after a call interruption, my music will not automatically play, and when I try to reconnect, I find myself having to reconnect sometimes.
Overall, the price was right and the sound is perfect for me. I would definitely recommend this stereo to anyone.

This works well for me and my modest car-audio needs. Its bluetooth and handsfree phone feature is a nice upgrade for me from my previous system. One minor complaint is that the microphone sensitivity was all the way down, and it took a while to realize that the menu entry for adjusting it is actually missing from the menus unless you're already on a call! But after that, it keeps the value and it's working well. I like the range of music sources (AM, FM, Bluetooth, Aux 3.5mm jack, and USB memory stick). It can, apparently, also connect directly to phone-based streaming music like pandora, spotify and others. I don't use that, as I pay for my phone's data connection, but I don't care since all the music I want is on a memory stick.
Very happy with this, particularly for the price.

Very happy with this unit, I had purchased its former version about 2 years ago so was familiar with its specs. I have it installed in a boat. Mainly just use it to crank the radio but also play CDs not much use for BT or cell phone calls. So far so good!

I was greatly surprised by the quality and advanced features in this device.
It integrates and works beautifully. The installation was fairly easy. Don’t forget to buy the wire harness adapter specific for your vehicle.

Looks good works well but some blue tooth connection problems works great with the usb but doesn’t charge a phone while playing. Could use an amp with more power but a lot of features to make it sound great

This is a very cool deck. I like the fact that you can play CD in the deck. Most new one are only media players. Easy to connect. Great price from Best Buy. A lot of adjustments for sound on the deck. More than needed for tuning. My only complaint is that you have to crank it up pretty far to get good volume out. Made tuning the amp gain limited. The volume is skewed. You close to the end of the spectrum before you get going good.
Good value for the price.

I purchased this to replace the radio in my son's 2002 BMW X5 that he had driven around for two years. The old radio died and we wanted something that would replace it but not spend too much money. This was a great replacement which upgraded him to blue tooth and looked good.

Wiring harness and accessory kit made this an easy install to replace the original cassette deck that came with my 2000 RAM 3500. The unit sounds good with the original speakers and gives options for satellite radio and hands free cell phone usage.

Very pleased with all the features of this receiver especially for the price. Great sound and easily paired with multiple devices. Only drawback is that it came with a microphone to enable wireless call function but has no port/jack for it.

This is a decent radio for the price. There are some oddities that are worth mentioning. The clock is not a default feature to display and the manual does not mention how to show the clock in the instructions. You have to push the setup button on the bottom right multiple times to display the clock There is also a delay in getting your phone to connect via Bluetooth. The detachable faceplate is a great feature being that my vehicle was recently stolen and the radio was what was taken in the end. The options for Pandora, Spotify and other music services is nice, but requires the USB to engage. For the price, I think that this does the job as well as you could expect.
