Great product and great price

Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I bought this as a gift for my husband and I wanted to upgrade his current sound system in his truck. This was the perfect option and a happy medium instead of the more expensive receivers I saw. This one is a great quality and does exactly what we needed. He loves it.

Bad business
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Love the stereo but before i bought it i asked the salesman if i could hook my android to it and bring up Google maps on it and he said yes. I can't bring it up...i found out i need a special harness to bypass the emergency break so now I'll have to pay for that installation out of my pocket when it would've been free at the start had he told me i needed that harness... very disappointed with Best Buy....

Pioneer car play improves your driving experience.
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This car play receiver is a game changer. Very easy to setup and use. Improves sound from factory speakers and you never have to worry about updating as the apps do this automatically. With my last receiver with Nav the maps got out of date and to update was like buying a new unit. I love google maps, apple maps and Waze. Easy to use with so many features. Do yourself a favor and get a pioneer unit with car play. It is a great purchase!

A lot of features for a reasonable price
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Sounds and looks great. Custom installation- looks like it came out of the factory this way. Alex and teammates at Oceanside/Vista Way location were fantastic. Love the Apple Play feature.

Love it!
