Review on Compatible Carplay Bluetooth Receiver Support by Jeremy Gulledge

Awesome Apple Carplay option

I was a little hesitant to buy a stereo from a company I had never heard of. That being said, all the features this head unit offered were too good to pass up. I'm glad I did! Installation was similar to any traditional head unit. This is a double din style so keep that in mind as it obviously won't fit in a typical single din slot in a car. Luckily my factory Hyundai head unit had a dual dyne. All Apple Carplay functions worked great. As if nothing was missing from the range of well-known brands. I connected it to my iPhone 12 with no problems. I will not go into all the features of Apple Carplay. You can easily find these on the Apple website. Suffice it to say that all the features worked flawlessly. The sound quality was excellent. With everything going digital these days, it really creates a level playing field. You really won't find any significant difference in the sound quality of this head unit compared to another head unit from someone like Sony. The real difference in sound quality you will hear comes from the amplifier and of course the speakers. So my advice is maybe save some money on the head unit as the Apple Carplay features are identical no matter who makes the head unit and spend the money saved on something like speakers. You can see the gap in the picture I posted. with overview. The problem isn't in the radio, it's in the car. I just need to look for a mount designed for my specific car to put the head unit in to fill the gap. I couldn't be happier with this setup!

Pros
  • Rear camera input
Cons
  • There are other interesting options.
