Everything works well but there is a slight wiggle that needs to be fixed. Should have gotten a unit with wireless Airplay. Sound system has never worked so well and a definite upgrade to the sound.

Word great. Installer was very knowledgable with the set up. This is a surprise for my wife, she will love it. Easy to read and operate while she is alone. The unit looks like it was factory installed. My wife can automatically answer calls hands free. The maps are from apple so asking Seri to find a driving route while speaking through the car speakers is a big plus. Asking Siri to send a text is Easy.

This was a gift for my brother, installed on 2005 ford truck, I've heard complaints of the plastic screen being unresponsive or melting in hot conditions, but it's lasted in the Texas summer heat, my only complaint is that the volume is a touch screen button instead of a standard dial, kind of awkward to change the volume but once you hit the button once a slider appears.

Works great with a 2011 VW GTI with dynaudio system. If you want something with CarPlay/android audio it’s pretty will say that the screen response is pretty bad, swiping takes two-three swipes so register but it’s mostly okay. Sound is absolutely great though

Did a self-install in my Camry. Works pretty well. I had to buy a Metra 70-8113 wire harness because of the JBL system in the car. The Metra 70-1761 did not fit

It was a great addition to my older 2008 Mountaineer, with a rear camera that works great. The Android auto functionality is pretty cool, and I'm very happy with the purchase and the installation service.

The selection of car stereos was informational to choose and to know that the Geek Squad is there for us at anytime. The ease of setting up for the radio to be installed was easy and the techs were very professional. I am currently looking now for a car stereo for my car as this Pioneer Receiver was for my wife for Christmas!
Thanks to all great job!!

The radio is ok. You will need an external amp because the outputs on this model only have 2 volts. Other than that it’s a decent radio.

Bought this to upgrade my 2008 Honda Element and had a local shop install it for me. Overall it works as advertised, giving it 3 stars because the USB-A extension cord that is provided with the unit - doesn't always work properly when I connect my phone. Also, the auto-dim for day and night driving doesn't work - not sure why, but it just doesn't work. I'm forced to manually change EVERYTIME I drive, super annoying.
The screen is also barebones, and the options/settings are light. But you get what you pay for and it's working well enough for my needs.

Bad product that only passes because of AA/Carplay

The Pioneer 1700/1770 will be the downfall of Pioneer as a car audio brand. The failure rate is extremely high.
Sadly, this is the new Pioneer after they got bought out by private equity in 2019. Then after the pandemic, and their key supplier factory burned down, they were forced to redesign their units to use inferior quality components simply so they could put a product to market. It's why I no longer recommend Pioneer, although if you can get a hold of product from prior to 2019 it's still good.
and USB -A in 2024? yikes, it can't even fast charge my phone in use, and of course it's wired

We are sorry to hear you are not happy with the Pioneer product. If you want a unit with a USB-C connection and wireless Apple CarPlay/Android Auto, you might consider the DMH-W4660NEX. It will offer both these features.
