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.

New Radio
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Jay in installation was the best! He made me feel comfortable getting a new system put in an older truck. He really knew what he was doing and was very easy to ask questions.

Works and looks great in my 1997 3000GT.
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.So far, so good! Installed by Best Buy. My car is a 1997 so the antenna didn't work well on the previous factory stereo, but now works great on the same antenna. Connects very quickly to my phone for music and calls.

Good applecarplay
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Overall it works, it does what you want, apple carplay just needs to improve overall, especially maps, o man that needs a better interface like how it is on a phone or something more user friendly for people who just want a detailed map while they drive

Great product

Good Solid Dash radio/apple connection replacement
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Integrated well into our vehicle, and works well. No issues, clear sound and connection to phone. Install was smooth.
I would recommend this to a friend Need better recommendations
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Seemed great but wouldn’t connect correctly with harness. Might be that my car is just older, but I based it on recommendations of what would work with my car from Best Buy. A bit smaller than what I needed so needed to return or buy dash kit. Power connection was main issue though.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend- Pros mentioned:Touch screen
Full featured at a good price
||Posted . Owned for 1 year when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Love this receiver! I was desperate for something with CarPlay, and this delivers nicely. It's got a nice big screen (which is great for navigation), the touch pad is just right with sensitivity, and it can connect anything I need.

Good but a little sluggish
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.For the price and the free install i cant complain, when you use the carplay it tends to lagg a little bit but on the other side having carplay in an older vehicle is a great upgrade

Perfect birthday gift for my husband.
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.He was able to install this himself in less than an hour or so. All he did was watch some YouTube videos and his 06 STI shaved off about a good 10 years. The features are amazing, the sound quality is great. Would recommend 10/10
