Description of [Single-Din/8inch Floating IPS Display] ATOTO S8 Gen2 In-dash Video Receiver with USB Tethering, 2 BT, Octa-Core CPU, Android Auto & Wireless CarPlay, HD Rearview with LRV, SCVC and More

S8 (Gen2) is the 2nd generation of ATOTO S8 Android car stereos. Its Soc applies a 12nm manufacturing process (higher efficiency, lower consumption), ARM Cortext Octa-Core processor (High performance), and the latest ATOTO AICE UI 11.0 (deep customization on Android Q). New ATOTO S8 can bring confidence and satisfaction under various operations. 3 options are available for internet access - Wi-Fi hotspot, Bluetooth & USB Tethering (Traditional Android car stereos only have Wi-Fi option). Speed Compensated Volume Control (SCVC)-Automatically adjusting S8's system volume as the vehicle speed changes to compensate for the road&wind noise. Users can put memorable photos in the specified gallery folder and let them play automatically on S8's HD screen with only a tap. S8 enables 6 touch gestures supporting a 2-fingers/3-fingers tap to enter the multi-task menu quickly, switch between preset 9 EQ modes, adjust the screen brightness, etc. which improve operation safety during driving. Dual Bluetooth (BT1 5.0 & BT2 4.1) allow S8 to have multi-connections with phone and BT devices meanwhile. BT2 can connect to a phone Bluetooth to get internet or Bluetooth OBD2 device to scan or read engine codes. BT1 works as Bluetooth Handsfree & A2DP audio, and helps wake up the phone's voice assistant (Siri, Google Assistant) and lock/unlock screen to protect personal privacy. S8 supports wired Android Auto & CarPlay, besides, wireless CarPlay is supported since September 1st, 2021. S8(Gen2) Standard works with an ATOTO AC-HD02LR camera to show HD rearview image, and have a Live RearView (LRV) - Access rearview even if your vehicle is moving ahead. This could remove obstructions caused by passengers, headrests, and the vehicle's roof & rear pillars, increasing the field of view (the lanes behind and traditional blind spots). The 178°full-viewing angle IPS display screen with higher contrast substantially improves the viewing experience in daylight. The 8-inch floating display part stands out from its single din base allowing users to adjust the height and view angles (up or down). For VERY few vehicles, the edge of the 8-inch display may block the air vent, car emergency switch button, or other buttons, resulting in inconvenient operation. Make sure yours won’t have such problems. Get continued firmware updates from ATOTO when available to ensure fewer bugs and get new features.

Great head unit! for car and vehicle electronics

So far, so good! The product looks great and was as easy to install as any. The device boots very quickly and responds quickly. CarPlay works great. I like that the USB cable is long enough. In general very satisfied. The floating screen is very easy to "disconnect" and reconnect when installed. Instructions on how to do this would be nice. I had to go back and find it as it wasn't as obvious as it should be as there are lots of leaflets with instructions and steps for a variety of things. In…

Pros
  • super price
Cons
  • high price

ATOTO 8 " Floating Screen Changes the Game

The ATOTO S8 Gen2 8" Floating Screen is another great product and ATOTO is way ahead of the competition. You can buy an Android radio for less or even more and you don't get what you get with this radio. The interface is easy to use and there are many things you can do to make your system unique and your experience very personal. You can always buy one of the other Android systems available, but you will never get the best experience by buying ATOTO. The only thing I would wish for more is the…

Got detachable USB extension, problem fixed.

Update The seller was very quick to respond and sent me a replacement USB extension cable. Problem solved. Now I can connect to Android Auto. Thanks very much! I will keep updating to clarify my other questions.1. The sound is too loud. Even at level 1 it is still too loud. The speaker breaks down at volume 15, maximum volume 30.2. The SD card slot only supports up to 64GB. Any micro SD card over 64GB is not supported.3. You cannot format the micro SD card to expand internal storage. It…

Good, functionally the best of the in-dash DVD/Video receivers

Aesthetics: I couldn't get over the fact that the metal frame holding the floating screen was always visible from the side - looked like a mounting kit, pcs. Maybe it's just the shape of my dashboard (Jeep JK) but that bothered me. Also, I was hoping that the floating screen could be adjusted on the fly - this would help reduce screen glare when we had the convertible top down, but unfortunately that wasn't the case - the screen angle had to be adjusted during installation and then blocked…

Pros
  • Great construction
Cons
  • Flaws

Exceptionally good radio for the price

I originally bought an Atoto F7 8" and it broke but after contacting Atoto customer service I got my money back and only because of that great customer service i decided to try this atoto s8 8 inch version which i really liked 1) full android tablet 102) s8 runs much cooler than f7 (could help with longevity/longevity) 3) sound quality is really good ( much better than F7) 4) I can run Google Maps natively without using Android Auto or Carplay as it is a full Android tablet 5) OBD sensor apps…

  • Dope 🔥
Cons
  • Lots of things

Great buy for the price.

After weeks/months of researching single din android devices I finally settled on an 8 inch ATOTO device for my 2005 Dodge Ram 1500. I haven't found any software/system bugs yet , but if I do I will update the review. FAST startup. It's almost immediately after turning it on. The interface is intuitive and feels like nothing else than an Android tablet. So far I've only added a rear view camera on the tailgate, which works really well. I love that I can activate the camera without reversing so…

Pros
  • practical thing
Cons
  • poorly thought out

Had high hopes for car electronics

Was in the market to upgrade my aftermarket stereo. Unfortunately due to Covid my local stores have been sold out for quite some time. I was offered to buy something online and then install it at a local store. Of course I first looked for branded stereos but they were sold out like my local stores. I settled on something that would allow me to use Android Auto. I stumbled across this brand and loved the form factor and features. Reviews have been generally and mostly positive on all aspects of

Pros
  • Great for me
Cons
  • New competitors appeared
