Customers are saying

Customers express satisfaction with the Apple CarPlay integration, sound quality, and ease of use of this 6.2" in-dash digital media receiver. Many also appreciate the inclusion of a volume knob and the functionality of the touchscreen. Positive feedback was also given for the backup camera and the fit of the unit. A common complaint, however, concerned the limited placement of USB ports.

    This meets my needs - I was looking to upgrade the unit in an older car to include Apple Car Play and this meets my needs. The volume knob is a little too small, but, at least it has a dial, many similar priced models do not.

    Had to upgrade my radio after my $90 Kenwood one died on me. I'm so glad I decided on this Sony radio with Apple Carplay. I have a 2010 VW Jetta so the USB port in the front was a necessity for me since my car does not have one in the console. Best Buy installed it for me and it was easy to learn the controls. The only "issue" I noticed is if I put my car in reverse before the radio boots up completely it will give me a message that says "No Video Singal", I think it is trying to look for a backup camera. I can still play and control music on my phone, but there is no display on the screen unless I turn off my car and restart it. But that doesn't really bother me, I just can't rush out of my driveway anymore, lol!!

    This is a really solid stereo for someone looking to upgrade your car. Apple CarPlay is such a useful feature and really updates any cars. Sounds great with good volume levels, coming from an audiophile.

    Nice stereo and screen. My daughter got this for her 2001 Integra and really likes it. It does everywhere wanted and looks very cool at the same time. I would suggest to have it installed by a professional so you done have any issues.

    We’ve had this radio installed for a few weeks in our 2013 Toyota Prius. Definitely works very well and we were happy with Geek Squad at Best Buy installing it. They recommended all the additional parts we’d need - except for a SiriusXM tuner, so unfortunately that won’t work for us and we’d have to get it installed separately. Otherwise it works very well, we primarily use Apple CarPlay.

    I have been using this in my Honda Civic for about a month now and it’s been great. CarPlay functionality has been easy to use and the added microphone has made it easy to make calls and use Siri. My only issue was that I had to schedule two appointments for the installation and the first was only changed because I was not told in advance that the airbag light being on would prevent installation, so it was a wasted trip to a Best Buy which is not very local and another trip for the dealership before I could get it installed.

    Allows you to play music in your car through Bluetooth, and works quite well! It can occasionally take a few tries to connect, but usually if you wait a few seconds it will connect automatically after your car is turned on. I don’t use the other features, I just choose my music or audio from my phone.
