Customer Ratings & Reviews

The radio is really cool and it's nice to have wireless Android Auto in my 2017 Rav4 Platinum edition. I have the JBL sound system and I got it connected, the problem is you can't listen to the radio loud without the sound cracking above 29. The tech told me that I had to upgrade my speakers, even though I had the best sound system already. I was told that aftermarket radios tend to pump out a higher sound than the normal factory radios that come with cars. However, I had the pioneer 2330nex in my old car and never needed to upgrade my speakers. So I didn't like that. after spending over $500 on this unit, and 350 for the plug n play adaptors for my SUV, it sounded like it would be more of a hassle and it wasn't worth it. Its also hard to raise or lower the volume on the touch screen, which is inconveniently located on the side because it's not really responsive. You have to keep pressing it and messing with it in order for the unit to feel your finger. Another problem I had with this radio is that I couldn't update the firmware!! I tried doing it through USB drive and through the pioneer app. None would work. It also wouldn't let me do anything with the internet, it kept saying that I have to accept the privacy policy. So I did accept the privacy policy in the app, but it still didn't work.. Overall this is a nice concept, radio but they have to fix all the glitches that come along with it. I returned this expensive unit after 2 weeks and I put in my other pioneer radio 2330nex in my RAV4 and it's works flawlessly. On a side note, (for those with a 2017 Rav4 Platinum edition) I like that my tech was able to get my bird's-eye view camera and my backup camera both connected into one screen. But the original bird's-eye view camera button does not work, nor do the individual views, which would be with any aftermarket radio. If you could find a tech that can hardwire in the overall bird's eye view with the backup camera to show on one screen, then it's pretty cool to use an aftermarket radio without giving up all the cool camera features on this particular SUV.

Device installer recommended this unit completely satisfied,installer did a great job,instructed me on how the unit works and it exceeded my expectations.

Great product. Android Auto is seamless. Quality of blue tooth is great. I just wish it had a USB c input to charge my phone faster.

Great system, love having Carplay in my Explorer! I wish the screen was a bit more flush with the edges, but it is excellent overall and the touchscreen is as responsive as a phone.

I love Pioneer product. Seamless and user friendly. I put in my 4runner and is MUCH better than the stock player. This product is excellent!

I like the unit but having some issues with the radio staying on to long after car is turned off but I love the pioneer stereo operation of the unit is awesome

This radio does what I needed, original radio technology was too old to bluetooth my phone and now I also have navigation and maps.

the stereo does everything I wanted. they guy did a great job on installation. It got done in the time they said

As a devoted follower of Pioneer's renowned Premiere line since the 90s, I eagerly anticipated the upgrade to my 2018 Dodge Challenger's audio system with the Pioneer DMH-W4660NEX. This decision was made with careful consideration, particularly due to the necessity of integrating the iDatalink Maestro RR Module to maintain essential vehicle functions upon replacing the stock radio. The Pioneer DMH-W4660NEX's inclusion on a very short list of head units compatible with the iDatalink Maestro RR Module played a significant role in my purchasing decision. Screen Size and User Interface: Despite the intricate setup involving the iDatalink Maestro RR Module, the Pioneer DMH-W4660NEX's performance left much to be desired. The disappointingly small screen, scarcely larger than a smartphone, pales in comparison to the stock radio. Additionally, the user interface feels antiquated, failing to meet the standards set by Pioneer's esteemed Premiere line. Touch Screen and Controls: Navigating the Pioneer DMH-W4660NEX's touch screen proves to be an exercise in frustration, with an alarming rate of unregistered touches and minuscule on-display buttons. Such shortcomings are inexcusable, particularly given the investment required to integrate this unit seamlessly into a Dodge Challenger. These issues present a serious danger to the driver and others on the road, as simple tasks such as changing the channel or adjusting the volume can lead to distraction and potential accidents. Amazon Alexa Integration and Phone App: The promise of Amazon Alexa integration, coupled with the convenience of a phone app, were compelling selling points for me. However, both features fell short of expectations, with Alexa failing to function altogether and the accompanying app lacking essential configuration capabilities. Settings and Performance: Configuring the Pioneer DMH-W4660NEX, despite the assistance of the iDatalink Maestro RR Module, proved to be an arduous task. The unit's settings are rigid and inflexible, and its performance is sluggish and unresponsive. These shortcomings are especially disappointing given the extensive integration process required for Dodge Challenger owners. CarPlay Connectivity: As a crucial component of modern vehicle integration, CarPlay connectivity is essential for Dodge Challenger owners seeking to enhance their driving experience. Unfortunately, the Pioneer DMH-W4660NEX's CarPlay functionality is unreliable at best, undermining its utility as a premium audio solution. Overall Assessment: As a loyal Pioneer customer and Dodge Challenger owner, the Pioneer DMH-W4660NEX's failure to meet expectations is profoundly disappointing. The necessity of integrating the iDatalink Maestro RR Module, combined with the unit's subpar performance and functionality, leaves much to be desired. I cannot in good conscience recommend the Pioneer DMH-W4660NEX. Conclusion: In conclusion, the Pioneer DMH-W4660NEX represents a regrettable departure from the standards of excellence that once defined Pioneer's Premiere line. As a long-time advocate for Pioneer products, I am disheartened by their failure to deliver a satisfactory audio solution. Moving forward, I will be exploring alternative options that offer superior performance and functionality, despite compatibility with the iDatalink Maestro RR Module. Pioneer must address the serious safety concerns posed by the device's shortcomings in the user interface and responsiveness before it causes accidents and potential liabilities for the company.

Works and fit perfectly in older model truck. Great upgrade from the old system.

This thing in my 08 Yukon almost makes me wish Tesla would integrate CarPlay. Finally having wireless CarPlay is amazing. I find myself enjoying the old beater again.

Excellent sound quality, it actually enhanced my stock stereo speakers! Easy to read and follow installation instructions.
