Very disappointed - poor quality - disconnects
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Poor quality & sound. I had this installed at Best Buy and immediately it will stop & disconnect. If it is connected to "radio" stations won't play. On "apple play" it shorts out (disconnects). It's difficult to adjust settings.

Completely dissatisfied
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I am completely dissatisfied with this stereo I bought. When I went into the store I was told that it would mirror my phone but I have an Android and this clearly only mirrors an apple. I told the specifications to the salesman that I wanted and he told me the stereo would work for me, but it's the complete opposite of what I was looking for. It doesn't hold the apps that I bought it for and every time I plug it in I have to do it three or four times just to get it to recognize my spotify. That was the entire reason that I purchased this and it doesn't work at all the way I was told it would. I bought this under false pretenses by the salesman at Best buy

Joke
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Cancelled installation 2x. Corporate support is deplorable. Never had as many disappointments with 1 company. Watching for going out of business signs.

Good functionality, poor sounding built in amp
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I installed this in Dodge Grand Caravan and added a backup cam. The first thing I noticed is that the Sony head unit was missing the details and clarity that I appreciated with the OEM Dodge stereo (which was a very basic stereo, not a premium unit). 6months later I still miss the sound of the OEM radio and I'm hoping that adding an aftermarket amplifier will help. I like that it works with Apple and Android. Backup cam functionality works well and even has settings to shift the backup lines if your camera is not centered properly. In full sunlight the screen is dim and hard to see. There is only one USB port so you can only connect a phone, or muic storage, but cannot do both at the same time.

Solid Stereo
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Solid upgrade/replacement stereo. The Apple CarPlay works great. The sound is good through factory speakers but it has the capture run a custom system. My only complaint is the screen can be hard to see when the sun is bright.

Tired of the hassle

Pleased with the product
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I was looking for a simple double din touch screen. I usually don't use Sony car audio, but I am very pleased with the interface and how well everything operates. The equalizer provides the flexibility to adjust the sound to the degree I need. The smaller rear footprint allowed a flush mount in my BMW 325i. The android auto and Apple carplay work flawlessly. Still getting used to the interface. The volume buttons are small and I have big hands, but otherwise very pleased.

SONY Receiver -- Wow, what a disappointment.
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Unit itself seems ok, but quality on Apple Play phone calls is extremely poor. Do not recommend buying this. Not even if they give it to you.

Good, but doesn't last.
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Everything about this unit was great for what I needed. Apple CarPlay worked great, sound was good. The unit never showed any signs that it was failing until about two years after installation, it just stopped working. Manufacturers warranty is only good for a year s I was out a few hundred bucks. Currently looking for a new unit
