Review on Top-of-the-Line Flyunice 10.4 Inch Android 9.0 IPS Screen Tesla Style Car Stereo for Cadillac Escalade 2007-2014 - 4GB RAM, 32GB ROM, GPS Navigation, Bluetooth, WiFi by Tom Tofte

Good BUT not perfect

Expensive. But it's nice to have a tablet in the dash of a 2007 Escalade. While the video output function does not work. The temporary setting you see at the top of the screen doesn't work, so I found it in the settings and turned it off. You can email tech support for help and wait for replies and general answers, and sometimes go in circles. For my car it was plug and play without all those expensive adapters you see in other videos you've seen. SOME of the steering wheel controls work. What frustrates me the most is that the device freezes and you get stuck on the screen you were on and there is no way to restart the computer without turning it off. Severe pain when you are on a freeway or highway. So, for this scenario, connect a separate on/off switch hidden somewhere. Sometimes it freezes and shows a black screen, which is why you lost Waze or Google Maps. I connect to my hotspot on my phone with Visible Wireless and work for me. Another complaint concerns the screen setting. Not as much. You can change your default apps by clicking the map icon or radio icon, etc. My Android Auto worked but I don't use it. Android Auto is designed so that you don't use your phone while driving. Easy Connection mirrors my Galaxy S10 Fe 5g, but with the default screen you no longer see it as your smartphone's display. I have no complaints about the sound (factory Bose in Cadillac). You have EQ settings and delay options to play with. The installation instructions are, if you will, ridiculous. But if you've ever installed a stereo, you'll understand. I don't think this device has dual zone capability so that's a big disappointment. And if the video output function doesn't work, it will be replaced. A purchase is only as good as the technical support you get when you need it. So my assessment is this. It is not possible to drag and change screens like on other devices. The XM application is either full screen or minimized. There are such limitations. I don't like the big bars at the top and bottom and don't let the user customize them anymore. We need huge buttons for the phone. Definitely nice things to like about the device. Will continue to be updated over time.
