Got mine a couple days ago, been super smooth so far! I'm 45, and just bought my first VW ever (14TDI) and man have I appreciated your channel. You have truly helped me fall in love with this car! Cheers friend!
Dave just wanted to say that I purchased an Eonon VWA12S-6G after comparing to T-eyes and others solely because of all your videos and the awesome information they provide. Many thanks for all the effort you put into these videos, love my new Eonon head unit and love the user community you've created! Btw, I recommend a SIM for your unit, it makes life so much easier even if its only got got 10 or 20GB of data a month. I dont even bother with Carplay or Android Auto now as all my main driving/music apps are installed on the Android head unit and as a bonus I've got Google "Find my Phone" if my car is stolen
So glad my videos helped you make the correct choice and you are happy with your unit 😊 Are you a member of the Eonon community Facebook group? I am moderator on the group and its run by Eonon themselves m.facebook.com/groups/eononofficial/?ref=share
Hi Dave. Im looking at getting one of these units but not sure what to get. Its between the VWA12S-6G (6g + 64g + 8core) or the VWA13 (2g + 32g + 4core). Which would you say is better? Im assumimg the VWA 13 is newer but the 12S-6G is more powerful?
I would highly recommend the VWA12S6G, once you receive it you will get an over the air update to genuine android 13. The VWA13 is a very budget unit, very slow and laggy with it inly being 2+32, the VWA12S6G is super quick and responsive with 6+64. I have tried the VWA13 it's not very good. A lot ofvpeople that purchased the VWA13 have since upgraded to the VWA12S6G. Don't forget my discount code Dave10 using this link tidd.ly/3tBjQZK
@@whatsdavedone104 perfect, thanks Dave!! Thought that would be the case but wanted to double check. They've got them on offer now aswell and can add your code on top aswell 👌
@whatsdavedone104 can you ask the Eonon gods for this update? I have a beetle and an after market pop up logo camera. Any camera position on the beetle needs to be adjusted as the angle is too shallow. Help me Dave, your my only hope.
I would suggest upgrading to the VWA12S6G...I am not a fan of these budget VWA12/13 units as they are only 2g/32g....the Q53pro is 3g+/32g. In my mind going for Q53pro to VWA13 isn't an upgarde its a downgrade. As of today the VWA12S6G is getting android13 via an over the air update. Discount code Dave10 tidd.ly/3tBjQZK
Thank you for your quick reply. The VWA12S-6G is also my favorite, the only thing that bothers me is that you can only set the device to sleep for one hour. Does it bother you much compared to the Q 53 Pro?
@Marc-iw4gw the cold boot time on the VWA12S6g is around 8 seconds, the Q53pro is near 30, the only time mine does a cold boot is first thing in the morning, rest of the day I am in and out of the car constantly for work.

Did they fix the issue where we can't adjust the parking lines when backing up? The a13 unit can.
Parking lines can't be adjusted like on the VWA13....hopefully it will come in a later update

Ordered the vwa12s today let's hope it's good
Did you take advantage of my discount code Dave10?
@@whatsdavedone104 sorry but there was an offer at eBay Germany for 279 € the 6gig version there was no option for the discount code
Hello dave.
I've had the Q 53 Pro for a year now (also thanks to your video).
Now I'm thinking about an upgrade, would you recommend an upgrade?
I would suggest upgrading to the VWA12S6G...I am not a fan of these budget VWA12/13 units as they are only 2g/32g....the Q53pro is 3g+/32g. In my mind going for Q53pro to VWA13 isn't an upgarde its a downgrade.

Hi Dave where did you get your antireflective screen protector
I made it myself from an Ipad screen protector.....see video

@@whatsdavedone104 thanks man you're super actif on your channel keep up, we love your work
Hi Dave my eonon vwa12 head unit keeps turning it's self off I reset but it still turns off for no reason just a blank screen
First thing I would try is a full factory reset of the unit....not a fan of the VWA12 as its only 2g+32g...the VWA12S6G is 6g and 64g
i have the VWA12s-u and there is no check for updates button just a MCU and System update but nothing happens when i tap either of them. any thoughts?
See this video, link in video description for file required 👍

@@whatsdavedone104 thank you I don't know how I missed that video as I try to watch everything you put out as it is all extremely helpful information.
Also are you allowed to share the file if it works? I'd be a test subject.
Testing is done....it will be an over the air update on march 4th
Did your dab z work after update?
Yes DAB-Z is working correctly with android 13....tried DAB+ but its still not been updated to work with android 12/13
Cool. Thanks Dave.
