Review on πŸš™ 7 Inch HD Touch Digital Screen Single DIN Car Stereo Head Unit with Bluetooth, GPS, Mirror Link, FM, USB, SD, MP5, Hands-Free, Backup Camera, and Microphone by UNITOPSCI by Jake Meyer

Revainrating 2 out of 5

Please don't worry---Pull out the screen manually, make sure there is space for the screen above the radio.

Edit: - I can't let you buy this after trying to get it right. My first review was made after having had it for a few days. Now I've had time to use it and find out. Good thing: 1. Bluetooth plays music.2. Radio works.3. Navigation shows a map.4. Bluetooth phone works.5. The phone is slow to answer calls after pressing the talk button. Issues: 1. The map is out of date - trying to update it but the download is limited to registered devices and this isn't one of them.2. The link to the mirror does not work - most likely you need to update the firmware, but there is nowhere to get the updated firmware. It was a big bummer because I wanted to use other apps with it.3. Bluetooth music info isn't showing - probably a firmware update too, but.4. The phone is slow to answer calls after the talk button is pressed. (Delay 3-4 seconds) Now I want to exchange it, but I've had it for a long time. I'll probably hack it to find out the chipset and force a firmware update, and then figure out how to get the current map with one of the other registered devices (AS THE SELLER HAS. The contents of the map (folder in the radio) this List device as a different device type ). The same radio is sold by other manufacturers with links to their firmware and instructions for their devices to receive maps. Hence 2 stars because it partially works. However, if all you want is a seamlessly working radio, then this isn't the case. Old rating. (UPDATED). That was in a 2000 Jeep Cherokee. Make sure you have enough space above the radio for the retractable screen. I may need to get a screen that shuts down instead. My 2000 Cherokee has air vents right above it, but I'll live with that for now. This is an amazing radio and the retractable monitor brought life to my old jeep and looks cool. GPS navigation works great and Android interaction was good, BT music doesn't show song info on radio. The camera worked fine, I had to break the brake light wire to connect the taillights. I was expecting the screen to come out at the push of a button, but I had to pull it by hand. The screen has a notch that you can grab. In general I am satisfied with the product so far. The big bummer is the lack of information about music over Bluetooth.

Pros
  • Great for a small home
Cons
  • Protection
