Review on 9.7 Inch Vertical Touchscreen Android Car Stereo: Hikity Double Din Radio with Bluetooth, FM Receiver, GPS Navigator, WiFi Connectivity, Mirror Link, and Backup Camera Support by Amy Moore

Revainrating 3 out of 5

RCA video inputs result in vertical image distortion.

GUI test results. The "about" settings have been changed to incorrectly reflect Android 10, but the tests reflect the Android 9.1 operating system. RCA video inputs including rear camera display distorted images on screen, correct orientation format was not included in this package. In other words, the video signals are compressed vertically, resulting in the picture being stretched vertically by about three times what it actually is. The auto logo feature has not been programmed for this screen orientation of the main unit and will therefore show a 90 degree (side to side) orientation when loading. The main units shipped with the operating system and system software were not the correct size for the screen orientation of that unit. If you buy this unit and expect to watch videos through the 3 RCA video input lines, they will not display properly and will stretch up and down a lot. Unfortunately I couldn't find any apps in the Playstore. compatible with the RCA video inputs of this head unit and the auto backup application compatible with this head unit support RCA jack connection. This device was intended for use in the Ford F350 and 3 RCA video connections were to be used. for external dash cams monitoring front tow, rear tow and right front wheel position relative to curbs. Since the device does not have the appropriate screen alignment software for its video inputs, it is unusable for this application.

Pros
  • Cool
Cons
  • Almost everything is fine
