    Worked great for about 2 months. Bought this so my wife could have android auto in her older escape. What I thought would be a nice upgrade has been a nightmare. Carplay has worked fine for other people (we both use android) but android auto constantly stalls and reboots stalls and reboots. Ocasionally it will work for ten minutes and then stall again probably right when google maps needs to tell you a directoin. Taking it back to best buy for the 3rd time but hoping they let me get something else or replace it. FYI using pixel 3 updated to most recent apps. I have tried multiple android phones multiple cables updated firmware cleared caches on all apps. I even factory reset one of our phones in desperation. Miserable...

    The CarPlay inconsistently works. When I called Best Buy the gentlemen said that’s why he doesn’t sell these anymore. Apparently there is a software defect. I was told to call Sony, and resetting to factory settings worked for one day and then car play stopped again. Too much trouble to return it and get a new radio but wouldn’t recommend it to anyone although it looks great in the car.

    Amazing product from an amazing company! I haven’t shopped at Best Buy very often over the years, but this year has been spectacular! I had no idea of the amazing deals on excellent products that they offer on a daily basis! Thank you so much!

    It works great but make sure you have the screen facing the correct way. It may seem hard to believe but I originally instead it upside down and backwards and had to go back in and fix it.

    The purchase at Best buy was normal. The wiring adapters and connectors and face plate were hard to find. The sony xav 3000 locks up every time I start my car because I have back up camera disabled but the unit still asks for a video feed. I strongly suggest looking at another brand and skipping over this one.

    I love this deck when it stays attached. Using Android Auto disconnects which kills the music and map. Sometimes every few minutes, sometimes not for hours. Sometimes it will just restart. Sometimes I have to reconnect it.

    I never want to downgrade when I should be upgrading. This didnt have the ports I wanted on the back to tie into my amp. It also lacks a cd/dvd player who knew that was even a thing.... Its essentially a screen. Rms per channel was also very low compared to my older model which was 50 rms per channel. Wasnt for me but im sure soccer moms this might be ok...

    Great "radio", easy to sync, fits perfectly in my 10 year old car. Installation was perfect, fast and complete. The technician followed Best Buys COVID protocols and the job was done very neatly.

    This is our first touchscreen car radio and we love it!!! Syncing our iPhones was simple and hassle free. Apple Car Play was the selling point. Only con is the USB isn’t on the radio. It’s a cable but we worked around it.
