    This Kenwood unit is everything I expected. From the perfect fit for my 2102 Chevy Silverado to the multiple features offered it is worth the money spent. One thing to mention is that if you intend on using Sirius XM radio you will have to purchase the tuner for that separately. This wasn't clear to me so I had to have the radio removed and reinstalled to get Sirius working.

    Love this receiver. I have been wanting to replace by factory radio for a while. Did my research and this Kenwood unit was highly rated. It did not disappoint me at all. Android Auto works great. The included mic for calls and voice commands works very well. Highly recommend this to anyone looking for a new receiver for your auto.

    As AV receivers go I thought they about the same except for controls and what is controlled. This KENWOOD made my older speakers sound great. It is unbelievable There is a bit of the learning curve and still learning. There is an expansive amount of tweaks you can make. I am still figuring them out. I am very please but I need to get back to studying my new KENWOOD. Highly recommended.

    This receiver was installed in a 2001 BMW 330Ci Convertible. Wow, what a difference from the old factory installed radio. The sound is fantastic, the media screen is great and the bluetooth connection works perfectly. Very satisfied with this purchase, recommend to anyone looking for a radio upgrade. Plus the Best Buy service tech, Jordan, did an excellent job with the install.

    I really like this Kenwood receiver but one of the floor reps at Best Buy told me it had wireless Android auto which is incorrect, it does have Android auto but WIRED not wireless, it was my mistake in not researching the unit and trusting what the rep told me. It will be returned. But if you don't mind the wired carplay and android auto I think its a great unit for the price.

    I nearly knocked off a star due to the trouble I had getting the phones connected initially via android auto. I had to attempt it multiple times on each phone before I could get it to work. I might have blamed the phones except they were different models and had the same issue. After you get it connected the first time, it'll reconnect without issue. The unit is responsive, the screen is nice. There's a few complaints about the brightness, however I haven't noticed that to be an issue. In fact, I've left it on its default brightness settings. The menu and layout isn't very intuitive but it's also not difficult to figure out. There is one odd feature that the "mute" button, labeled ATT, doesn't fully mute the sound. The sounds get considerably quieter. You can turn sound off completely via the volume controls, so I'm guessing the "mute" button is functioning as intended. The radio had options for plenty of presets. The bluetooth works very well, and there's lots of control via the menu about which devices take priority. It's also very easy to switch between devices. You can receive a call from one phone even if another is connected and playing media. I installed this on 2017 Dodge Grand Caravan to replace the stock radio and it's a fantastic upgrade. So far, I'd say it's worth every penny.

    Very happy with my purchase of this stereo. Having waze running on a larger screen makes it so much nicer to use. The reduced size of the unit made installation possible in an area of my car that a full size unit would not fit. I have not missed being able to play CD/DVD's so far and do not imagine I will. Using a maestro RR to keep vehicle functions is great as well. I do kind of wish it had wireless android auto / apple carplay for the short trips where you don't feel like plugging in your phone. I don't know if I would spend much extra money to get wireless though when traditional bluetooth streaming can cover those instances.
