    I love that I don’t have to manually Bluetooth connect my phone anymore since the radio does it on its own. I love the ease of setting favorites at the top to easily switch between your phone, radio or XM. I can even put my own pictures as a background! My only con is the way the face lays in my Subaru Crosstrek which is sadly horrible in daylight. It’s hard to see the screen and especially when the rear camera comes on in reverse. I would recommend this stereo but definitely check the angles in your vehicle. I’ve messed with the angle settings and still doesn’t help it.

    After reviewing the available options in store, the salesperson helped me locate this unit. I compared it to others in the same price range and decided that I liked the look and features of this best. I had the Geek Squad install it in my car, and it fits well. The sound quality is fantastic, and I love the ability to easily play my phone through it. I also like that I can add a back up camera if I want and use the stereo system to take calls via bluetooth.

    I caught it on sale for $199 and decided to go with it after checking it out at the store. It's a nice stereo that sounds really good. I'm over 40, so I'm not looking to rock the block but I wanted something with bluetooth capabilities and a CD player, EQ to adjust my music to my liking and some touch screen features and this one has all of those PLUS I paired it up with a backup camera which works great!!! A month in and I'm still learning some of the features that it offers. It plays CD's, DVD's, MP3's and more. If you're looking for a nice stereo that won't break your budget but sounds good with nice features try this one.

    Very easy to access functions. Sounds great, the phone and bluetooth work great as well. Only gave 4 stars because I havent had it long enough to see how it is as far as durability over time.

    Terrific Double Din Replacement Car Stereo

    I chose this model to replace a factory JBL radio in a 2005 Avalon that I was using TWO different FM transmitters with (one for MP3 and one for Satellite radio). It has plenty of set buttons for AM/FM/XM Satellite, Bluetooth, and has high amp USB input/charging capabilities with a backup camera (not included). I did NOT get a GPS model as now, everyone's phone has that. This is a terrific unit and it exceeds my expectations. The backup camera has excellent light and daytime resolution and the display is very programmable with not only pre-sets, but ordering the main display (for those options you use most often). It has excellent reception even without a separate antenna for the Satellite radio. It is very easy to change bands or input device while driving and the mic has noise cancelling for making calls to minimize road noise while talking. The touch screen is sensitive enough that I have not had a single touch that I did not get the response I was expecting, whether it be changing stations or changing the input. The programmable graphic equalizer has some "presets" for specific types of music as well as talk radio and allows you to set your own frequencies and apply it to all inputs while playing music. I would highly recommend this unit if you are looking to stay under $300 and I believe it delivers the sound quality (of course the amp and speakers come into play here) of a unit twice its price. You will not be disappointed.

    This is a perfect aftermarket radio for what I needed. FM went out in the stock radio and this had all the features I wanted. I no longer need to wear a headset when I talk on the phone with the bluetooth running through the speakers. I even installed a back up camera which was an added plus to my Escalade. Have had the radio for a couple months with no issues. Added the XM Tuner and love the touch screen.

    I've been a diehard Kenwood and Alpine fan for over 20 years. Best bang for your buck- Kenwood every time. 22 watts x4 r.m.s. compared to the others guys' 14-16?! No thank you. Not to mention 4v pre-amp outputs and all the other Android compatibilities and seamless bluetooth streaming for a fraction of the closest competitor's prices...this a/v unit is a steal!

    I bought this to connect to a backup camera. View of camera onscreen is good. Some glare if sun shines on it. Quality of sound is a few steps up from the factory radio in my car, great as far as I’m concerned. Connecting an iPhone to the radio via Bluetooth was EASY. To hear gps directions from iPhone turn volume up in the maps app.

    I bought the Kenwood unit primarily to have a device that I could use for Bluetooth connection to my phone to play audiobooks and music off my phone. It works fantastic for those functions. It also works very well for phone calls. Sounds great, looks great, and best buy did a great job of installing.

    Overall the unit is superb! I want to note that the only reason I didnt give it a fifth star is because of the remote not being supplied and for Kenwood not putting a wire schematic on the unit which was typically standard in the past. It is simply a way to get buyers into an expensive shop and pay more money to have a "professional" put it in. I still did it myself but would recommend to everyone that if you are not COMPLETELY comfortable with car wiring then do NOT attempt it. You could damage the unit, the car or yourself. The screen has a lot going on and could cause distractions while driving so the owner/driver really should use a remote to navigate the unit while in motion. I purchased one through BB online. Also the description only credits the usb as a phone charger but in reality IT is what gives the user the option of hearing any music regardless of the type of recording it is (mp3, lossless, etc.). Any type of a recording on a usb, or micro sd via a usb adapter can play through the attached usb cord. That is awesome and is also miles ahead of using an aux cord and much more dynamic than bluetooth in regards to sound quality. I have not used the dvd fuction yet but I do have a back up cam attached and the picture is great!! Not hd but for a screen this size standard is perfectly fine. It also has options (cord outlet on the back of the unit) to add a navigator as well. Overall, I am extremely pleased and would recommend it to everyone.

    I had a double DIN radio space in the dash and needed blue tooth in a new radio. Didn't want to spend a lot getting updated to a new generation and the deal looked right. You get what you pay for. Blue tooth works as needed, sound is just OK, radio features are just minimal. Touch screen works well (capacitive, not pressure) screen is hard to read in daylight. Not bad - should have spent a little more.
