Great Replacement Deck

I bought this replacement deck for its many features at a great price. The CD works well, the tuner brings in my stations, and the front Aux and USB connections make it real convenient to plug in my smartphone. It has Bluetooth, so I can make or receive calls very easily. The deck stops my CD or the radio and I can take my call, then when I'm done, it brings back up whatever I was listening to. Sony has 2 apps for your smartphone that allow you to control the deck with the phone, and another to read you your texts as you are driving, among other things. The deck also comes with its own remote. My only complaint is the long menu that you have to scroll through with the control knob to go through all of the functions. Having so many features is a plus, but makes for a long menu!

It was a returned radio that had nothing wrong with it, so I got it at a good price. It comes with many useful features like Bluetooth connectivity, Ipod USB/AUX jack and all the other connections to tickle your fancy. The only downside is that if you are not really a user of all these features I wouldn't see the need to purchase a car stereo of this caliber. If you want a stereo that just has the ability to play your Ipod through your car radio, then there are much cheaper options through "non-big" brands. The price was fair because it was an un-boxed item so the price was lowered. If it was at full price, I would probably have seeked a cheaper alternative.

Got this to replace another aftermarket unit because I needed Bluetooth for my work vehicle. Has good reception and good sound, but the controls are annoying for adjustments to the sound or other options on the unit. For the money I don't think I could have found a better unit.

I purchased this radio to replace a broken radio in a New Holland tractor. It seemed a little much for a tractor considering the bluetooth and sreaming music. However, is has worked out great. Keeping CD's in the tractor has never worked well. They would get scratched up from the rough ride. Now that's not a problem. I can stream the music from my phone or plug up the iPod and not have to worry about those CD's anymore. Plus, before this radio sometimes I would miss hearing my phone ring, but not anymore. Now when my phone rings, it rings over the speakers in the tractor. Finally, believe it or not the handsfree feature for phone use works well in the cab of a tractor. I can only imagine how well it would work in an automobile. Concluding, I must say that this is an excellent radio for the value.

Purchased this to replace an OEM radio in my 2010 Hyundai Elantra Touring. Works great with the cars integrated amplifier and puts out really nice sound. Its blue tooth setup works great with my Iphone and plays sounds from any source on my phone (Music, Telephone, Youtube, Pandora etc...), and the USB connectivity works the same, and also charges the phone. Comes with a microphone, haven't used this feature very much, my wife says she can hear herself while talking. This is the first radio I've bought in about 5 years and I am amazed at all the features it came with for the Price. It also has the option to purchase the Sirius/XM receiver for $69.99 for an easy satellite radio upgrade.

I'll admit I haven't put this stereo thru it's paces, but the features I use, I love. The phone sound quality is excellent. I love that it came with a remote microphone that I can clip onto my sunvisor while keeping almost all the wire concealed. I like that the lights can be dimmed for my all night drives, but it would be nice if I could also change the colors. I can't tell you about the CD player - I only use the front USB. Can't tell you anything about iPhone issues as I only use the front USB. Did I mention the front USB; Love It!
It's easy to use, pairs BlueTooth phones automatically and it sounds like a Sony for less than $130. What could be better? (Oh yeah, I caught it on sale for under $120!)

I purchased this item as a gift for my wife, and so far she has loved it. We are in the midst of purchasing a new car and have the unit ready to go for install into the new vehicle. I have always been impressed by systems and equipment purchased from Best Buy, and I would recommend this product and the retail store to anyone looking to purchase a new car stereo system.

I purchased this for my daughter and it was easy to install and sounds pretty decent. I don't like that you cannot manually adjust the tone (bass, treble, mid). Bluetooth works well and it was very easy for my daughter to talk on the phone while driving.
