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.

    Great for the money! It is certainly a step up from the stock radio in my Smart car. Much richer sound from the same crummy speakers. I chiefly bought this for Apple play though, and that can be a little unpredictable and quirky sometimes.

    Hard to find a display radio with a physical volume knob nowadays. This thing works perfect and can easily change volume

      Hi TimD,

      We’re glad you’re loving the physical volume knob! It’s great to hear your Sony XAVAX1000 receiver works perfectly and makes volume control easy. Enjoy the smooth experience!

      Thank you for choosing Sony!

    Good for its purpose. If you don’t like all the frills and dazzle then this is the perfect head unit for you. Works great and has great sound without needing any additional amplification. Easy on the budget.
