Review on πŸš— Pioneer MVH-S215BT Bluetooth Car Stereo Receiver with USB, MP3, AUX, AM/FM, Android Smartphone Compatibility, and ALPHASONIK Earbuds by Sam Bhushan

Revainrating 3 out of 5

Took about three weeks. . .

Worked well the first time it was installed, but the bezel became difficult to remove soon after, which is important when you drive a roadster and go to the shop for a minute and get dressed I don't want to lock the top. The display was crappy upside down, 100% blurry. The small, cheap Bose stereo supplied by the OEM could be seen with the top down, but not this one. Bluetooth worked, but there was a significant difference in volume between the receiver and Bluetooth. Because of this, Bluetooth was basically useless. I contend that the sound quality was excellent and the volume was more than adequate. There were/were some nice features, but it doesn't make sense if the detachable bezel only works for a few cycles and the device itself fails after just a few weeks. Pioneer was my choice because I wanted the orange backlight to match my dashboard, but overall the quality just isn't there. I'm afraid Pioneer is another example of a well known brand being forced onto a poor quality product and sold to people who have trusted the brand in the past.

Pros
  • High score for support and durability from testers
Cons
  • Nothing
