Could be better
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Becareful - the first was for Apple only. The second they installed was Android too. I would rather the volume knob. To get it attached to the steering wheel in another $100.

Posted .Hi, BryanC,
Thanks for the review and the 5-stars rating! Navigate your smartphone without taking your hands off the wheel with this Sony 6.2-inch media receiver. Compatible with Apple CarPlay, this media center allows for smartphone integration with voice control. Drive up to four 55W outputs with the Dynamic Reality Amp, and simulate a dashboard speaker source by calibrating output frequencies with the Dynamic Sound Organizer. This Sony 6.2-inch media receiver connects easily to your phone to access traffic information, check emails or make calls.
Thanks for choosing Sony, have an amazing day!

Great Stereo for College Student
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I installed this in an older Honda Accord. I used the existing bracket as a shelf for the unit as I am not a big fan of the aftermarket plastic kits. It was a clean Install. I also used Dynomat behind the Kicker speakers in the front doors to eliminate the bounce. Overall it sounds fantastic. My daughter loves her new wheels and sounds! Go Aggies

Cost waaaaaay more than $299
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.It sounds great. Does what it needs to, but dont get fooled by the price. This will cost you over $700 with the “free installation”. Its not free, in fact youll pay almost $200 in installation fees. Also, want your steering wheel controls to work, $100. Its “backup camera ready”, but if you want to use your backup camera, tack on another $50. Free Sirius for 3 months, but youll hafta buy the Sirius tuner along with it. Wiring harness, adapters, everything else to install, keep adding. I wish this thing was awesome enough to justify putting $700 into my car, but its not. Far from it.

Good stereo but can be annoying
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Overall I am pleased with this receiver. I wanted something with a volume knob which this has. Works as expected for the most part. At times this won’t recognize your phone to activate car play. Sometimes I have to plug and unplug the cable several times to get it to recognize the phne

Perfect radio
||Posted . Owned for 3 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.We bought this radio for the Apple Car Play feature for our new driver.
