Good device but does not support Bluetooth and charging at the same time

Perfect for my pontoon. 3 inch hole saw and looks like it came from the factory. Almost everything was great with that. The controls are nice and easy to navigate, the Bluetooth connects quickly and is clearly visible in daylight but not glaring at night. My only complaint is that it switches from Bluetooth to radio when charging the phone. I don't have many radio stations where I live, so it's not great. It would be 5 stars if it wasn't there.

Pros
  • Brings joy
Cons
  • Updates

Looks great but overheats from the start.

I like the design of these radios, but. After sending 2 units in a row for a refund I was NEVER able to figure out how or why they OVERHEAT? I mean they will be so hot you literally can't touch them! So I finally bought PLANET AUDIO! Straight out of the box, NO PROBLEM! Only stayed slightly "warm"! I love radio in the same style. And in case any of you didn't already know, they're from the same company according to both the documentation and the design! Personally, I wouldn't buy another BOSS…

Pros
  • Stylish and modern design
Cons
  • Communication with seller

This radio is great because it fits your speedometer perfectly.

This radio is great because it perfectly matches your boat's speedometer. You just remove the speedometer (which probably won't work anyway) and put it back. Buy and plug in a soft VHF wire antenna and you'll have great radio reception on the water. Bluetooth works great too. My console and this unit are uncovered or weatherproof and stand up perfectly to rain, salt spray, etc. I did notice condensation inside under the display (I'm in South Florida with high humidity) but it dries quickly.

Pros
  • One year trial
Cons
  • Some bugs

Really good radio, helpful installation tips.

Beautiful radio. If I had a $100,000 boat I would probably buy a better one, but this thing is really good at this price point. Easy installation, save settings when power off, sufficient reception. I use it to connect a pair of Kicker 6.5 speakers in my fishing boat and they sound perfect and loud enough. Unfortunately, if you're REALLY determined to be the jerk on the lake, you probably need 4 more amps, huge speakers, and a flat-brimmed hat. Be careful when installing. You've pre-stripped…

Pros
  • Solid construction
Cons
  • Difficult to say

Best possible use for speedometer opening

This device has been installed in my 17" open center console for about 5 weeks without any problems. Has been surprised by the rain many times and sprayed with a garden hose without fogging up. The installation was above the existing one Gauges effortlessly, although the wiring required a separate switch for the ignition wire for my boat which spends most of its time with the ignition off.It has logged about 20 hours of operation at high volume and worked flawlessly.is easy and the range is on…

Pros
  • Hands-free operation
Cons
  • Replacement availability

Powerful and easy to connect via Bluetooth

I installed an MGR350B on my Ranger Bass Bot's dash where I removed a non-working Lowrance round depth indicator. It perfectly fits the hole without extra cutting. I have used a Boss 8 gauge amp wire kit and hooked it up to a small Sony Xplod 250w 2 way amp and also used 2 Boss 6x9 3 way amps in carpeted boxes mounted on the floor under the 2 steering / Passenger consoles lay. This head unit's Bluetooth connects to my Samsung Note 8 phone faster than any other device I've ever connected to it…

Pros
  • This is amazing
Cons
  • Not the best

Very powerful radio in small size.

Well I'm not a fan of reviews but this time I wanted to write something about this radio. Received it very quickly and since I couldn't install it right away I thought I'd test it at home using the speaker box I had and an external power supply. The speakers used in this test included 2 x 350w Pioneer 6x9 4-way speakers and a power supply that supplied 13.8v at 22 amps (it sure doesn't draw that much current). Well, let me tell you that this little radio is very good at moving the speakers and…

Pros
  • Featured
Cons
  • Ugly packaging

BEFORE YOU BUY THIS RADIO AND INSTALL IT ON YOUR BOAT, DO YOU KNOW THIS?

This is my 4th Boss radio in 5 years! Installation is done on the boat, which stands on the boat lift when not in use. Complaint number one is that the LED/LCD gets covered by moisture/condensation shortly after the radio is turned on. I don't think it's just because it's installed on my 15ft boat. Other pressure gauges do not have this type of condensate. Other reviewers noted the same issue with condensation on the display. To keep moisture out, I always leave the radio on at the lowest…

Pros
  • Few competitors
Cons
  • Unreliable
