Decent but not great. He will be returned.

The bezel around the screen makes it difficult to touch some buttons that are deep in the corners. All vehicle units are in kilometers and liters and cannot be changed. When using the radio tuner, a loud high-frequency squeak can be heard at all frequencies. The screen mirroring app (tima) is written in Chinese and since I don't read Chinese, I don't understand it. Bluetooth works well, you need to use your phone as a mobile hotspot for GPS (Waze and Google Maps) to work. Sygic and Google Maps work offline as long as you download the correct maps/states. You must also use your phone as a hotspot to access apps like Google, to use the Play Store and YouTube. When listening to the radio or Bluetooth music, you won't hear the GPS tell you when the queue is approaching. I emailed the seller for assistance but I don't think he understands English very well. Every time I get a reply with an attached instruction manual. There's no way to customize the home screen, leaving you stuck with a giant image of preloaded music. The block is far behind. When switching between applications, it sometimes freezes on the screen of the applications in use for 20 seconds. Management at the steering wheel degree of work. When using the arrows on the Jetta steering wheel to change channels, I sometimes skip a few preset channels with a push of a button. The bezel also doesn't quite match the factory finish, and it took some tweaking to get a good fit.
