Revainrating 4 out of 5

Great value for money with very good sound

The unit was plugged into my 2006 e46 HK (no factory navigation) and worked. Ease of installation. No additional harnesses/cables required. Fits perfectly. Looks OEM. What I don't like: 1. I don't like the homepage. Very busy. Lots of little icons. Not customizable.2. The music player is bad - it doesn't organize music well. You cannot select anything other than the artist's name. I'm struggling to list the artists in alphabetical order (the best I could do was reverse alphabetical order).3. There's no station number or name in the radio presets - it usually shows a truncated portion of the current song (no big deal). What I like: 1. The touchscreen is very responsive. No delays observed. Cold start time is not bad - about 20 seconds (faster than similar EONON)3. Preinstalled Igo navigation - works pretty well4. No problem with Bluetooth. What I like: Sound quality (my e46 has upgraded Infinity door speakers). It has a built in DSP which most devices at this price point don't have. Even without the DSP tweak, I noticed a big difference in sound quality compared to the stock head unit once installed. After installing this unit, I initially decided to replace it due to the minor complaints listed above. I replaced it with an EONAN GA9450 (same form factor - 7 inch touchscreen). As soon as I connected EONON and tried adjusting the sound quality, I realized I had made a mistake. The sound quality of the SVTNVIN device was much better. So I reinserted SVTNVIN and returned EONAN. I can live with small ailments; It's okay, but I really want the sound to get better. As mentioned above, I think this device is an excellent choice for its price. I am happy with this purchase.
