Review on Double Android Eonon Support Carplay by Loren Slama

I really wanted to like this main unit but unfortunately it just fails. Good thing it's Android, Bluetooth connects easily and the best sound you'll get from this device is via Bluetooth. The radio reception was just terrible and the stations that tuned in sounded like 1D, 2D at best, there was no stereo at all. The downsides are, well, there are many, the biggest critical ones being that when you close the car the unit turns off instantly compared to other stereos (JVCs) I've had in the same car. The EQ and filter are useless if you have a subwoofer using the subwoofer output channel, the only things that EQ and filter adjust are the front and rear speakers. Device standby is useless for an hour, it just turns off and it's a multi-step process to get music playing via Bluetooth again, even if you turn on the device before it turns off, nothing autoplays, just goes on the home screen, which you cannot customize. It doesn't remember your last screen configuration, so if you have a screen split it doesn't remember it, it just doesn't deliver. Not to mention that it stopped working after a week of use. The plastic of the screen is soft, flexible and easily scratched. A lot more but you get the picture. If you really want to use Android, buy a tablet and connect Bluetooth to a real head unit like the Kenwood DMX706. You can connect 5 devices at the same time and it has a shortcut button to switch between any devices. Until these devices can do these simple tasks, I wouldn't waste your money.
