I have now bought and installed two of these units. This one went into a 2006 Sonata which came had the premium system. Was able to utilize the Sonata's stock amplifier with this stereo (needed Scosche harness to do it). Great sound (even in my '99 Civic with no amp), good features and great microphone. Wished I had done these upgrades sooner! If you do your own install, remember to hook up the microphone before you button up the dash! I made that mistake on the first unit I installed. D'oh!

This receiver is awesome for the price. I gave this to my wife for Christmas, her old stereo didn't have an aux or any way for her to connect her phone or iPod. Now she loves being able to get in the car and have her phone automatically connect via bluetooth and resume playing music. She also loves being able to take phone calls right through the stereo. It does come with a microphone that mounts in the car. It seems to work well, though it doesn't have the advanced noise cancelling that her phone does so I she isn't quite as clear sounding when she uses it.
The one thing I would change is that displaying the current time is an actual display mode, so you can't view what music you are listening to and also see the time. She doesn't have any other clocks in her car so it is a minor yet noticeable issue.

Bought for my 18 yr old daughter to replace a cassette player in her car. She loves the features of this radio. Sound is great. Love the Bluetooth connection for her phone and that it has the ability for her to answer her phone hands free. Only "complaint" is that the display could be brighter- can be a little hard to see in the daytime.

I haven't used the CD player or radio much, but I did make sure they worked.
I use the Bluetooth feature and I couldn't be more happy. It starts playing from my iPods Spotify the moment it comes on and auto connects along with my other devices. Most Bluetooth won't connect if another device is previously attached, but it switches out flawlessly with the other device.
There is a slight lag when changing songs, but that might be my iPod.
The leds are a bit bright at night, but you can dim them (this dims the written display as well) then it's fine.
It also takes the radio a moment to start up after the car starts, so you will need to give it a moment to load.
All in all its a great radio.

I bought this unit to replace the one I had put in my truck not too long ago. Got tired of the other one. The display was so bright that it was distracting at night. I love this one! Especially the dimmer control (one of the main reasons I bought it). Sounds great, looks great! Easy to operate. My only complaint about it, is the fact that the new wires are not labeled what they are (specifically, the speakers). So you have to figure it out on your own. Took me a little longer, but once, I got it done, it was great! Awesome bang for the buck! The remote is nice too, though I don't know I'll ever really use it. Overall, I think this is a great radio!

I was replacing a Kenwood that the previous owner installed and didn't want to spend much since it's for my 2004 Sequoia. I've always been partial to Pioneer head units for quality and wanted something that would work with Android and my wife's iPhone when she's using it. Installation was straight forward and I ran the cable for the mic behind the dash and mounted it to the top of my steering column. Everything works great and I've had no issues for the year that it's been installed. Great product at a great price!

I love my new Pioneer radio! Best Buy sells this unit for under $90 and it delivers great sound, has 18 FM presets, Bluetooth connectivity for my iPod and a removable face plate. I especially love that it comes with a microphone for hands-free cell phone use, once connected via Bluetooth. My phone automatically connects when I turn on the car. It doesn't have Sirius/XM capability, but I don't subscribe to fee-based radio, since there is plenty else out there. This unit is a great value!

Perfect replacement for existing unit (different slightly from this purchase). Everything needed was already installed in my vehicle. All I had to do was slide out and back in the "radio dash box" which actually contained the unit. The existing power/audio plug fit perfectly. Sat in my vehicle for almost an hour just listening to music and learning the adjustments. Good times revisited from my teen years doing the same thing in my '65 Mustang and my under dash FM-cassette powertuner. Really like that the lights change color with the beat of the music. Looks neat at night.

This is a great little stereo that has a ton of features - ability to connect to spotify, pandora and bt radio, bt phone capability and so much more. Love the remote and detachable face. The only downfall is the inability to rename the different phones that are connected - we have 4 drivers, 4 samsung galaxy phones and it is difficult to tell them all apart

My wife got me this for Christmas and I love it. Works great and the quality is awesome. It makes my speakers sound twice as good as they were. The bluetooth is great. Pauses, shows who is calling and now I can talk hands free. So many options, plus comes with a remote control. This is a limited edition and we got it for a fraction of what other brands are charging.

This is a great entry radio for anyone wanting decent sound with out all the bells and whistles. Options for MP3 with the USB plug in, and satellite radio with the AUX jack if you already have your tuner. Easy to understand controls and options. Just read the instructions. Great for the inside of my sailboat cabin!

This receiver gives you all that you need and then some. Having an older model car, I had to use add on's like a stand-alone Bluetooth. Now I have a receiver, Bluetooth, CD player and USB all in one easy to use unit. The quality of this receiver is great & Best Buys install service is excellent.

This inexpensive Pioneer unit works better than I expected. I also purchased the adapter kit for the car. Installation was relatively easy (with the right tools) and it took less than an hour. Once everything was in, programming it was easy and the Bluetooth works great. We have had this unit in the car for about a month now and it works very well.

My OEM disc player had developed a faulty volume control, so I chose this deck to replace it. I have been very pleased with its sound dynamics, features, and ease of use. It connects seamlessly with my iPhone for Bluetooth streaming, and has not displayed any operational issues whatsoever.

This Pioneer head unit has exceeded my expectations. The blue tooth is awesome, it was easy to install, I like that I can still use Cd's. The only reason for 4 stars is that the USB port stopped working, but simply detaching the face and reattach ingredients it fixed the problem.

I bought this item as a package which included a new radio for my 2005 Silverado. It has the features I wanted like multiple inputs so I can listen to audio books on long trips and a way to charge my cell phone without a specific car charger. I also enjoy the hands free cell phone use I get now.
What I don't like (but it is getting better now that I am able to get some practice with the radio) is how the buttons are so sensitive. I will retrieve my sunglasses from the slot underneath the radio face and accidentally hit a button changing the station or I will not hold the source button long enough and the radio will change source instead of turning off. Worse of all, if I touch the volume control wrong the radio will go into setup mode instead of adjusting the volume.
All in all I am happy with the package, the radio and the installation.
