Review on 🚗 Enjoy Seamless Connectivity and Smart Features with the POWER ACOUSTIK CP-650 Double DIN Bluetooth Car Stereo Receiver, equipped with Touchscreen, Apple CarPlay, and 6.5" Display. by Flavio Scarola

Too bright at night - I should have bought one that plugs into a car dimmer but this one doesn't. Sometimes the device works as it's supposed to, but about half the time I connect to it Issues: Volume issues - volume levels between navigation, music and phone are poorly controlled. You have to turn up the volume when making calls, but the next call with an incoming call is very loud. Navigational alerts and voice are too low and distorting when on. In my experience, these are all issues that other CarPlay devices don't have. Sometimes the volume control stops working. The display on the screen goes up/down, but the volume does not change. The solution is to shut down the car and restart it. Sometimes the music (Pandora) shows that the music is playing, but nothing can be heard. Lots of random things don't work and you have to turn off the car or unplug the phone cord to reset it. I'm returning this thing before I throw it out the dash. UPDATE: After a month of ownership, I removed it for a refund. I found that every time I add a destination to Waze or Google Maps, the volume gets blocked at the current level. I've found that I can use the navigation app's search function and click the microphone icon and then cancel - this Sequiy solves the volume problem. Then a new problem appeared - the Pandora application would stop at the end of each song and not play it next. This device just has too many bugs. Just installed Boss BE62CP and it works MUCH better. Doesn't have any of the problems this block has. In addition, the Boss device adds a rear USB port, a dedicated HOME button, and programmable screen dimming. The boss block is a bit more expensive, but overall worth the money.
