Good unit, wired Android Auto still a problem tho
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I bought this to replace an outdated Sony XAV head unit. I wanted a bigger screen and my vehicle could not fit a bigger screen than I had so I chose this one because of the floating face that sticks out. It fits in a double din opening. I have multiple amps hooked up to it so I don't know how the stock sound quality is, but there is a good amount of adjustments to get it to sound how you'd like. The only cons I can think of are that the screen is definitely not anti-glare. Even with all the adjustments you can make to the screen, if the sun is out there is always a glare. Also, the same issue I had with my previous XAV where the wired connection to Android Auto is almost worthless. It cuts in and out all the time and I've tried about 5 different usb cords that were specific to my phone, so that's not the issue. I thought maybe it could be my phone as well, but I got a new one and the issue persisted. It work well with bluetooth though for Android Auto. I also liked that it was still compatible with my idata link from my previous unit so I didn't need to buy anything extra. It was just plug and play and installation was super simple.

Sold separately and another appointment. And have to pay for installation of the camera.
