Review on πŸ“± Enhanced Multimedia Experience with Pioneer 7" WVGA Display – Apple CarPlay, Android Auto, Bluetooth, AppRadio Mode, and more! by Adrian Smart

Revainrating 2 out of 5

Strange fake?

The touchscreen is very fast but the resolution isn't "fantastic", the sound quality is DEFINITELY better than the factory radio (I've upgraded all my speakers) but there are some weird technical things with it. Firstly, during the installation I only have the option to choose one location: South America or Australia? Then the date is definitely wrong, I'm confused about setting it to D/M/Y and M/D/Y and I can't figure out how to get the date to actually match the day of the week? It really just doesn't work. Then after ignoring it once my cable probably got messed up but Apple CarPlay crashed completely and broke Spotify on my phone and blocked it even after I turned the phone off. I couldn't open Spotify. I had to download it again to turn it back on. I've had it for about a week and am definitely too lazy to pull it back. I have CarPlay in my Camry so I wanted it in my Prius but it's not that good. I also really wish it had a physical button to skip tracks, but the buttons are ok.

Pros
  • Decent performance
Cons
  • Modern
