this radio has great sound and I figured out how to make rear view camera work

I purchased one of these android radio for my Saturn SUV previously. Almost everything worked on that radio, but the sound was really crapy. when I bought this one I was pleasantly surprised by the sound quality.installation is really easy. Each pair of connector is unique, it's impossible to push in the wrong connector.one thing to note, the 2011 Camry radio is screwed onto metal brackets on each side. Each side has 3 screws. But with this unit, you can screw only 1 screw in on each side. Fortunately the unit is very light, and the bottom side is connected to the HVAC unit, so it won't move or rattle.the Navi app doesn't have offline map. You need to connect the car to a wifi and download the map. You can do this directly from the head unit, no PC involvement is necessary. The US and Canada map takes nearly 10GB. So I strongly suggest the 32GB unit. 16GB might be too tight. Once local map is downloaded, nav works perfectly.I haven't installed the rear view camera yet. That involves some wiring to the tail lamp. More review to follow.OK, I finally got the backup camera working. There is something you have to do that the connection instruction did not tell you (user manual and instruction are pretty much useless with these radios). After the connection, the key is the red wires at each end of the long cable with yellow RCA connectors at each end. For the radio to show rear view image, a pink wire labeled "back" must detect +12V. The high voltage level on that pin tells the radio that rear view camera is sending signal. To do this, you need to connect that red wire coming out of one end of the yellow RCA connector to the pink wire labeled "back". On the camera end, connect that red wire coming out of the yellow RCA connect to the +12V wire going to the backup light bulb. PLEASE USE A MULTIMETER TO CHECK WHICH WIRE IS +12V. For some odd reason, on my 2011 Camry LE, the red wire was NEGATIVE, the white wire was POSITIVE. very odd. I am glad I checked in stead of assuming the red one was +12V.

Pros

Cons
  • The device is not compatible with some third-party apps, limiting its functionality
