Great receiveer
||Posted .

Not Alexa ready
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Radio and installation went as planned. I have occasionally had problems with Apple Car Play not working or being responsive. My biggest gripe is that the radio is promoted with Alexa built in. It turns out you have to download two apps, on your phone, for Alexa to work. Alexa is very limited on what she can do. Siri works better and all I need is a Bluetooth connection. I wish there was voice control in changing channels

Great! Careful for big hands.
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Great radio, easy access around the menus... BUT if you’re someone with big hands, changing the volume and pressing the physical buttons on the front-left side of the radio can be difficult.

Excellent receiver.
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Bought for our 2011 Silverado truck. Had Best Buy install it and he did an amazing job. Works great and also had a backup camera installed with it. So much cheaper than buying a new truck. Love it.

Mostly good
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I just got this, but am happy with the hands free and car play etc. my 2 complaints would be the size of the buttons (too small and hard to access) and the brightness of the screen (hard to see during the day).

CD player doesn't work
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Stereo sounds way better than the 2016 Nissan factory although the CD player doesn't work so I have to return it. First call to Best Buy ended in a recording that no one was able to assist at this time which was normal business hours. Also Best Buy didn't tell me another part was needed to hook into the existing rear camera. At the time of the install I was told about the part and they could not order. Bottom line... I think the stereo will be cool eventually but I probably should have bought from a local business who specializes in car audio.

Sounds Great, Additional Features -- No!
||Posted . Owned for 4 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Yes, one buys a stereo for the sound. But one also pays the premium price for the additional features. This one fails miserably. You can buy a car stereo that sounds about this good for $200. You pay the other three for the features. That was a mistake. First, you can't read the display in the daytime. So, if you are using Android Auto to look at a map, you might as well forget it. While the Android Auto interface is actually pretty good, you have to use the only USB input to connect your phone, so you then can't listen to music on a USB stick. No problem, you say, I'll just connect my mp3 player to the 3.5mm mini jack. Good idea, except there isn't one. You can't connect a music player to the unit. Speaking of USB sticks, I have no idea how it sequences the music. Even though it's separated into folders, the sequencing of playback is unpredictable. I've used an mp3 tag program to edit all the music metadata and it doesn't recognize track numbers at all. So, I actually renamed the WAV files, starting each with the track number -- Nope. Didn't work. I contacted Pioneer about which USB sticks to use and they actually replied, "Try a Kingston, we have had really good results with that brand. " Well, that's true. And I can tell you, you'll have bad luck with a lot of other name brands. It does play CDs, but no there is no CD text. Pretty much inexcusable in a $500 unit. To put this in perspective, I have a Chevy Impala with an LCD screen and CD/Bluetooth/USB stereo. I can see that screen in the brightest sunlight, it does have a 3.5mm AUX input jack, and I have a choice of three USB ports that will play from a USB stick. Not only does it show CD text, but also album art. So, this can be done! And relatively speaking, a Chevy Impala is not an expensive car. Bottom line, I would not buy this again.
