Customers are saying

Customers frequently mention the 6.2" - Apple CarPlay - Built-in Bluetooth - In-Dash Digital Media Receiver is a great radio, especially praising its Apple CarPlay integration, sound quality, and ease of use. The inclusion of a volume knob and a responsive touch screen are also appreciated. However, some customers have noted the absence of a rear USB port and occasional connectivity issues.

    This is the third Sony Media Receiver we've installed in our kids cars (Each of the three kids has one). We've been very pleased with the controls and ease of use

    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

    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.

      Hi Allen,

      We're thrilled to hear you're enjoying the XAVAX1000 Receiver sound quality in all conditions! Sounds like you've made a great choice. If you ever decide to try CarPlay, we're sure you'll take advantage of it!
      Thanks for choosing Sony!

    All I can say is AMAZING!! This stereo brought my son’s 2007 truck into the future! Works so great! My son installed himself pretty easily but had to buy a new plastic face for his specific truck.
