    This has made a great replacement for my factory radio that bite the dust after 6yrs. Works well with families that are split Apple/Android users.

    I’ve had this unit for 5 months and my number one problem is that it’s very unresponsive to the touch. Sometimes it disconnects the wireless CarPlay and it has trouble connecting to my Wi-Fi 90% of the time. I would return this product if I could.

    Screen could be brighter and contrast of image better for apple carplay. Bluetooth and wired CarPlay audio sound nice, but Siri and phone function audio sounds horrible. Like Siri or person you’re calling is in a tin can. Can hardly understand caller. Touch screen is not very good either. Very disappointed.

    Very Poor Installation Experience

    Worst customer experience I've had in a very long time. Ordered a Pioneer head unit and all the recommended installation accessories, arrived to the store, waited for 2 hours, then the install tech said the best buy recommended harness won't work. So he instructs me to order a different harness from Crutchfield. I take a picture of the new harness from his monitor, order it and then come back next week. When I arrive next week, after an hour, I'm told they made a mistake and this is the wrong harness. They told me to order the WRONG ONE AGAIN. I decided to return everything and take my business elsewhere. Long story short. Question everything they tell you and make sure you have the right parts. These guys do not know what they are doing, so you cannot just trust what they tell you or you will end up very frustrated.
