DO NOT BUY - Car electronics

This is just ridiculous! I bought this radio because I have the exact same radio. My old radio died after long use! So instead of rebuilding my whole truck for a new radio, I decided to buy one! Does it have bluetooth? Isn't it compatible with iPhone? My old radio that looked the same had both! Absolute rubbish, don't buy this radio, buy something else

Pros
  • GOLS certification
Cons
  • Some difficulties

Now I have music in car electronics

I need to replace the radio in my old truck. It was a fantastic choice. At first, the only thing that bothered me was the autotuning. I couldn't tune in to the stations I wanted. The owner's manual didn't provide the necessary instructions (OR I missed them) for manual control. A short message to Pioneer via their website was answered within 24 hours. Now it works exactly as I wanted it to. I've had great results with all of my Pioneer products.

Pros
  • Few competitors
Cons
  • poorly thought out

Not terrible bass settings for the sound quality

Makes speakers sound like garbage and doesn't even have a dedicated section for subwoofers. But there are RCA connectors on the back. I like the Pioneer, but this one just isn't the same. 50€ waste in my opinion. Also makes the vocals sound like you're choking on whoever is singing. I have all the Kicker speakers, the four doors are K-Series and the subwoofer is a $150 12-inch speaker that doesn't even thump because of the stock radio.

Pros
  • Fits many
Cons
  • Almost everything is ok

Complete POS $50 spent.

USB playback is only supported on Android 5.0 and higher, which is hidden at the end of the user manual. This device does not recognize the iPhone at all via the USB port, which is why I bought this device. It is not mentioned anywhere in the Amazon listing. I had to solder a custom wiring harness to fit my pickup truck and disassemble most of the dashboard to install it. Don't repeat my mistake and buy a better pioneer.

Pros
  • Cool
Cons
  • I don't really have any complaints about it, everything is fine

bought to replace good old pioneer deh5900ib to have USB input; huge bug; the manual is blunt and inaccurate, and doesn't even cover all advertised features of the ad; This thing doesn't include Mixtrax, the setting controls work randomly and/or don't work at all; often need to be turned off to exit the setting function; no selective dimming function; no way to mix music on USB - sent back

Pros
  • availability
Cons
  • repair

Works but gets hot!

It was pretty easy to install and get started. BUT! It works HOT! I removed it from the dash, connected the wires and tested before proceeding with the final install. Everything worked fine. I only used the radio. And it's connected to just two 5.5-inch speakers. When moving I accidentally touched the back of the device, Thermal Sync (sp?). I burned my viewfinder on it! This mom was HOT! Listen to the radio?! Now I'm worried that the back of the device will melt the wires and set my car on…

Pros
  • Car electronics
Cons
  • No instructions

Excellent quality, I would like an equalizer button

It has not happened for a long time but I am still very satisfied with it. I'm giving it four stars because it was easy for them to add an equalizer button. It is inconvenient to enter the menu to adjust the equalizer. Also, I like the feel of the buttons and the bezel in general. appears to be of a higher quality than many Pioneer units I've seen. And it looks great and stylish in my car. My iPhone SE connects and works well with the ARC app using a regular charging cable. Once you install the
