Just what I needed!
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This car stereo does everything I need. It has ApplePlay so I can seamlessly integrate my phone with my vehicle. And maps show up where I need them so I don’t have to fiddle with my phone to see where I’m going. Also had a rear view camera installed and that pops right up on the screen as soon as I throw it in reverse.

Great for the money
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Only difference I would make is price. Honestly wasn’t my first choice just was cheaper than what I wanted. But for the size of the screen and only having the wired CarPlay should make it a little less only due to the rise of big infotainment screens being a big deal.

Love the Apple CarPlay!
||Posted . Owned for 1.5 years when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I love this receiver. I replace a similar Sony system in my Silverado cause the GPS quit functioning. Now I can use the mapping function on my iPhone through Apple CarPlay as well as several other apps. The screen is bright and easy to read and the controls are large.

Car Play
||Posted . Owned for 2 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Bought this for my daughter. Although she likes it, I think it’s just ok. You have to have a cord for the CarPlay to work and they had to install a ugly microphone by the windshield for Siri to work.
