Swapped out the old factory radio and the difference is night and day. It CANBUS integration shows doors and AC data on screen. It also the unit supports a front DVR camera and displays it quickly. Plus, split?screen lets me run maps and music at the same time. I reused the factory mic, but the included one was decent too. Value for money is excellent compared to branded units.

Audio quality jumps noticeably with clearer mids and tighter bass. It split?screen lets me run maps and music at the same time. It also Wireless CarPlay and Android Auto work without drops. Plus, the seven?band EQ / DSP presets actually make a difference. Install took about ninety minutes with basic tools. Firmware guide was clear and well written. Overall, it feels like a new car without paying dealership prices.

Wireless CarPlay connects the moment the engine starts. It USB?C fast charging keeps my phone topped up. It also dual Bluetooth keeps my phone and OBD2 adapter connected. Plus, steering?wheel controls mapped correctly on first try. mounting brackets lined up with factory holes. Tracking updates were accurate and delivery was on time. If you’re on the fence, take the leap¡ªthis is worth it.

Boot time is quick and the UI is clean with sensible icons. It Wireless CarPlay and Android Auto work without drops. It also AM/FM with RDS pulls in stations better than stock. YouTube guides were enough for the whole process. Seller replied to my wiring question in under an hour. One star off since the UI theme choices are limited, though the default looks fine. Value for money is excellent compared to branded units.

This head unit exceeded my expectations. Installation was straightforward with the plug-and-play harness, and all the steering wheel controls work perfectly. The radio reception is strong, and the built-in FM/AM tuner is much better than my old system. I especially like how quickly it boots up—almost instantly. It makes the car feel modern, and my friends were surprised at how much functionality I got for such a good price.
