    Wireless Android Auto/Car Play is worth every penny. I had the same exact radio(Minus Wireless features) Installed by bestbuy 3 years ago. I purchased this solely for the wireless upgrade and was able to simply swap it out myself since best buy had already done all the wiring.

    I am so pleased with my purchase of a second Kenwood deck. Easy to install and program, I will probably install one all of my vehicles. Wireless Android Auto couldn't come soon enough to aftermarket audio entertainment. As always, BestBuy has all of the needed installation accouterments. You want a great product, pick Kenwood.

    Even during Covid, BestBuy came through with top notch service and a high quality install! The Kenwood unit is a perfect upgrade for wireless Apple CarPlay, and it’s super easy to use. Added a rear backup camera, and it works like a factory install. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND this unit, and BestBuy installation is a no-brainer!

    The Car Play works great, both the wireless and wired. My only regret is the type of screen. The resistive screen panel is unreadable in Direct sunlight. Even worse, the angle of the Honda Pilot radio slot made it a bad choice.

    Alvin was a key component in getting what I wanted. His knowledge of stereo systems was true and accurate in matching my wants, needs and pricing so that i now am able to enjoy my sound system in my vehicle while i drive the many miles i am required by my work. Great service.

    One of the best wireless CarPlay radios Best Buy carries. Good responsiveness on built in apps and CarPlay app’s. Love the physical buttons across the bottom as well.

    This deck is AWESOME! I have been using Kenwood products for a while now and they just keep getting better and better. The screen mirroring is flawless even though it isn't HD. The sound is beyond great even with my factory speakers. Customizations are plentiful navigation works really well as well. If you're in the market for a new deck this will exceed your expectations.

    I needed an upgrade for my basic work truck radio that was easy to connect my phone for pandora & calls, & the ability to have multiple camera views for backing, towing, etc. This radio is very simple to use for my basic needs but also has tons of features & capabilities for advanced users/vehicles. NOT a fan of the Android Auto though as it would constantly disconnect & leave without my maps & music so I just use Bluetooth.

    I replaced the radio in my son’s Jeep w/ this Kenwood so he could have a backup camera. I’m a little disappointed in the sound. This Kenwood doesn’t sound as good as the OEM Jeep radio and fulling with the equalizer is pointless. This is probably Kenwood’s plan so we’ll purchase an amp and speakers too! At least the backup camera works.
