Good looking stereo!
|Posted .Owned for 1 month when reviewed.I purchased this stereo because of the look and the volume knob. I am overall very satisfied with it but I have faced/facing two issues. The mount bracket that is recommended for this stereo is not quite compatible with it, especially in SN95 Mustangs. However, the geek squad employee who installed the stereo on my car did a custom work on it to make it fit better in my car. The second issue is that the radio goes off and on by itself (not a lot, maybe once a month). The stereo may itself not be responsible for this problem, it may have something to do with my car's battery. But let's see if I can make it go away by doing something with the battery cables and terminals.

Great, full-featured CarPlay Stereo
|Posted .Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This is really quite a nice unit. The display is very sharp and clear and having the USB port right on the front is very convenient for using CarPlay. I'm happy that Geek Squad was able to retain my steering wheel controls and backup camera in my 2015 Toyota Corolla. One thing to note, if some of your steering wheel controls don't work like you want you can customize them within the settings of the stereo.

Love this Sony Car Stereo!
|Posted .Owned for 1 month when reviewed.Really love the ease of use of this unit. Plug in your iPhone in and it only boots up as Apple Car Play. The Sony interface is legit and I'm very happy. All I can say is if you are planning on replacing your factory stereo with a Smart upgrade this is the one

AMAZING
|Posted .Owned for 2 months when reviewed.I bought this stereo to replace my 1999 stock stereo and i love it. I mostly use it for CarPlay, so i have maps/navigation, spotify, and hands free calling/messaging. I have a 1999 camry and installed/wired it myself using a harness connector off amazon. Would definitely recommend

Excellent basic car stereo
|Posted .Owned for 1 week when reviewed.I’ve seen other reviews on slow and responsive the unit is, but it wasn’t that bad. In fact, it was better than expected. It fits perfect in my vehicle, and the display looks pretty good. I’m definitely satisfied.

What experts are saying
Q: QuestionWhen this was purchased just 6 days ago it indicated free installation. When it arrived, it does not indicate free installation on the order form anywhere. All calls to stores and corporate have proved futile and most unhelpful, rude even. Help.
Asked by Frustrated.
- A:Answer Yes, the same thing happened to me. It is terrible. I had to return it. Do not believe that the installation is free... it's not.

Q: QuestionThis unit does not state it is compatible with Spotify. How is a compatible Spotify radio different from this one? I do believe though I can connect a smartphone to the radio and Spotify will play. I just want to know what the difference is.
Asked by PandaBear.
- A:Answer It is saying that the dash does not come with a Spotify application built in like SirusXM, the app on your phone will connect with Apple Car play and you will be able to see the app and play from there. I use Spotify for this car radio and works great! I have attached a photo on how it looks like if you’re playing a song with Spotify.

Q: QuestionCan more than one phone be paired and saved with this unit? Several reviews have stated that only one phone can be saved at a time. This would be a critical error. Think about all the couples that share vehicles. This would be a deal breaker
Asked by JimA.
- A:Answer No you can have another phone to it. You just have to go into the settings it’s there.

Q: QuestionSony claims this unit has built in navigation/GPS and shows pictures to this effect. Does it actually have this feature or is this incorrect? If it does, this might be the one for me.
Asked by CyberJeep.
- A:Answer This unit has Apple Play, and if you own an iPhone as I do, just plug your iPhone into the jack and your iPhone can be accessed through Apple Play. This includes your GPS navigation App, messages, phone calls, etc. It shows beautifully on the screen and works just great.
