Review on πŸš— BOSS 508UAB Car Audio Stereo System: Single Din, Bluetooth, USB, Aux-in, Mechless, CD Player by Jeff Richmond

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Good inexpensive device suitable for car radios

Meh. . . - Reception is fair but not great - Clock isn't displayed continuously whether off or on - Lack of backlighting causes display brightness to change, making red too dim during the day and cyan, yellow and white too bright at night - Volume / Menu button seems to be - bit cheesy. turn it on! - Great MP3 sound - Big buttons and great lighting make navigation easy - Excellent modest volume control - Display is easy to read - Standard double din mounting is very easy I bought this unit to add my 22 year old Subaru MP3 and Bluetooth -Functions add son without theft. In general I am happy with it. MP3s and heavy radio stations sound great, and the large volume knob offers ultra-precise control. It won't drown out ambulances or slit your ears, but it's loud enough with efficient speakers. My aging eyes appreciate the large display. I can easily navigate the controls on my own, even wearing gloves - try the crazy touchscreen! Download ringtones to a 32GB MicroSD card, plug it in and enjoy weeks of non-repetitive music. My biggest issues are having to toggle the display colors between day and night, the clock only shows when I press a button, and some flash drives don't fit in the tiny notch around the USB connector, but those are minor issues. . For the price I really couldn't have asked for more.
