    I needed a new radio replace the stock radio, but I also wanted the illumination to match. This unit Kenwood came through in fine style. Best Buy came through with a great price and fast shipping. Will be ordering another for my wife's Chrysler Bluetooth Music Clean Looks Great Sound 24 hr. Clock Display Perfect Illumination to match my truck

    I bought this after the stock radio in my Accord finally reached a point where it worked less time than was functional. I wasn't looking for anything crazy, mainly just wanted Bluetooth for my iPhone. I figured if I ended up wanting SiriusXM I could just use the app with my phone and Bluetooth it. I also was okay with skipping on CarPlay since I don't use my phone a ton in the car anyway. Installed myself (with YouTube help) which was easy enough. The only tip I'd give is to strip down the wires on the harness more if you're not going to solder connections, as there isn't a lot of room for a twist-and-tape job. I think my favorite thing with this radio is that my phone automatically connects each time I get in the car. Just a warning though, the music will automatically start playing. Overall this unit is exactly what I was looking for. I didn't want to spend too much money as I hope to not have my car for more than another year, and I feel for the price I got great value with this.

    This is my first non-cd, digital-only in-dash car stereo, and I wish I had swapped it out years ago. Super easy to install, looks fantastic with many variable color lighting options to fit any car interior. Pairs instantly with my Samsung Galaxy phone to play wirelessly from my audiobook app, and comes with Pandora and Spotify pre-programmed. Also features a phone answer/end button in the upper left and a dashboard microphone for hands-free communications through the car speakers! So awesome!

    Amazing Budget radio

    Very happy with this unit!! Sounds amazing, setup was a breeze. Bluetooth works perfectly. Ease to setup, sound is clear and callers can hear me clearly. Love the color choices for display, altho the red is hard to see in the sun. There is an option to have 2 different colors on the display, but wish white was an option. Function menu is the only thing that uses white. White is very easy to see in bright sun. At times I wish I had gotten a unit with a remote, but that's not a big enough con to take away from such a nice budget head unit!

    Bought this deck for my '94 YJ. Easy to install, interface was user friendly. I love that it automatically connects via Bluetooth to my spotify app to play my music. I love that I can receive phone calls as well. The multiple color options for the deck is an added benefit! Overall great product! Very pleased with this Deck.

    Our minivan is 14 years old and we put this unit in as a bit of an upgradeas we are keeping the van for a while longer. It is great sound, easy to use has Bluetooth and usb, speaker phone and microphone. My car has a new lease of life as we are all up to date with tech for teens!

    Was easy to install, hooking up my phone was very easy and it connects very fast. My other Kenwood was hard to navigate through the channels and did not have the calling feature. This is very easy to run and sounds good

    Between the USB port, bluetooth, and satellite radio access there's no excuse to be listening to anything you don't want to hear. Very good sound, clear information in the control panel, quick and easy media search system, adjustable color panel for different lighting. The buttons are all well made and easy to press, and so far have shown no sign of wearing out or anything like that. I love it.

    I actually bought a different model but it would not fit into my car so I settled for this one. The sound quality is great and it’s really easy to use. The USB port has oddly not worked for one day out of an entire month since I had it. Other than that, I still think it’s worth the buy. Also, Best Buy offered free installation with the purchase but the technician did crack the manifold during installation

    Love this new addition. Installed this into my 1970 Nova. Easy to put in and setup. Synced with my phone very easy. No issues at all. I would recommend this to anyone that is a music lover. So many options to choose from. I especially love that I can plug in a thumb drive and play my music. Well worth the money!

    Nice basic radio with some extras!

    Was just looking for a basic radio with Bluetooth. Didn’t need a CD player. This had what I was looking for, plus hands free phone capable. Ability to change display color seemed a little corny at first, but allowed matching with console display. Decent sound. Cons—clock display very small, set up instructions not clear, but I eventually figured it out. Summary—If you are looking to upgrade your old radio to Bluetooth technology with hands free phone for under $75, this will do the trick!

    Pretty straightforward setup process. Can use bluetooth or usb or aux. Its nice to have options. Got it at a good price. EQ adjustment can be confusing at first but once you adjust it to your speakers it sounds great!

    Great replacement stereo

    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    Installing the stereo was pretty straightforward. Once I actually got the time to do it only took me about half an hour to wire it to the adapter harness and just plug it in. The cables that come with the stereo in the adapter were color-coded and matched so that made it a lot easier. I really like the Bluetooth functionality and the fact that it has Pandora and I heart radio built-in. If you’re looking for a decent stereo that has a lot of bills and whistles or not too much money this is the one.
