    Radio works well and is easy to use but feels very cheap. I have had issues with the connection for Apple CarPlay my phone disconnects in the middle of calls and I can’t get it to reconnect during the call. Overall I have no issues with the radio and would recommend this product.

    Purchased two of these units for our kids vehicles. One of them has performed flawlessly, the other has had issues connecting and a black display. We have an appointment to have it checked by the installation team at Best Buy. I will update as soon as they correct the issue.

    This was an upgrade after our Kenwood failed on multiple occasions. The Sony for about $40 more for the same midrange product was a great decision. Never had one problem after installation.

    Had this head unit for 2 years, and it was decent. However just this morning the USB circuit crapped out, won't hold a connection with any USB device, whether it be my phone, my Wireless android auto adapter, or a Flash drive to update the firmware...

      Hi g00fy, We're sorry to hear about your device. This is definitely not what we wanted you to experience. Are you using USB extension cable? Make sure that your flash drives are in MSC (Mass Storage Class) format otherwise the head unit won't be able to read them. If you're head unit still won't read your USB devices, we recommend reaching out to your installer to physically assess your head unit.

      If you need further assistance with your device, you may reach us at socialsupport@am.sony.com with the following details :

      Sincerely,
      -Craig Sony_US
