Disappointed
||Posted . Owned for 9 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Would not recommend. The display doesn’t stay where you left it whether it loses connection to your phone or reboots. The back up camera takes forever to kick in and the warning is in the way.

Junk
||Posted . Owned for 2 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Worked for about a week and a half and now it disconnects randomly every time I drive. I drove a total of 40 minutes today and it disconnected 3 times. Way too expensive to be this crappy. Don't buy it.

Loud hissing sound when using carplay
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Had the headunit installed professionally and had it had a very audible hissing sound when using car play. Took it back and had them re-do it and it remained. If you listen to your music quietly you will hear it

4th after market radio, 20 year old truck.
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Simple to use and set up. Shouldnt have to worry about paying to updates maps because the maps come from my android phone. Has several preset equalizer settings to chose from or you can create your own. After market radios you get what you pay for, after two months no complaints.

Game changer for my older vehicle!
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Game Changer for my older vehicle! This in-dash Media Receiver has provided new life for my older Jeep Wrangler. Jealous of the new Jeeps and the tech they boast. This receiver brought me out of the dark ages with wireless Apple CarPlay and handsfree communication. Best Buy also provided professional installation! Great product!

Great Sound Not so great mapping
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Great sound and I would give it 4 stars but the Google Maps and Waze go crazy on me 30% of the time. Not sure if it's an android auto play or Kenwood issue but it does cause problems for me at work.
