- Today we install a new radio in the 2013 F150. Let us know what you think by commenting below and don't forget to like, comment and subscribe for more!!!
**Update 3/25/20 - We never got the issues fixed with our unit. They offer a new updated unit that (seems) better. For the cost, I wouldn't recommend this exact unit. While at the time, we we had super customer service, we've since heard from a lot of people it's hard to get anyone on the phone. Maybe we overwhelmed them with the response from our video??? lol .
We've tried to reach out to Phoenix Android Radio to make an updated video but it hasn't worked out.

Looks great! Im glad your Google maps looks normal. I have a '17 F150 and I installed the PX3 w/ 2G of ram. Google maps looks weird. The search bar is almost halfway down the screen. I contacted Phoenix many times since I purchased it last year and they keep telling me that their engineers are working on it. Bull. I don't understand why it looks ok on other people's I've seen like it's and mine looks weird.

@@emiliagolightly8778 what are the 444 for?
@@luca2627 How is the radio now? did they ever fix the google maps issue?
@@Strategicfail nope. I ended up upgrading Sergeys software and that fixed the issue. Now I can use waze or Google maps and a bunch of other things.
@@luca2627 who is Sergey?
moral of the video.... you can disassemble an entire F-150 with a 7 mm wrench
Yes yes you can
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
literally any ford is like this, my mustang is the same way and its a 2005 😂
Every American car is like this when it comes to radios, 10mm for everything else😂
*any Ford
Why am I watching this I don't even own an f-150
Same here lol
👏🏽
I'm 13
Because subconsciously you want and crave a new F-150. 🤔😂
@@ubangiestomp I don't though I want the screen in my dad's crap car the car is too big and pollutant
I was sold on this radio until you mentioned the fact that the AC is off and on feet.... this is a dealbreaker for me. Thank you for this well-done video!!!!!
same here. a/c is the dealbreaker. If they address let us know. Thanks
That thing is freaking sweet, almost want to take my factory lariat radio screen out and out this in!
Did you do it yet? I wanna replace mine now too
They are great radios ive had mine for my focus for almost 2 years now and no problems at all still as fast as day 1 i couldnt be any happier. Definately worth the money for the focus model.
Dude I got the same unit and the company refer me to your video!! Thanks for the info.
Were can I get the unit,I tried looking for it. And around what price am I looking at
Louis there is a website called f150addicts.com
@@louis3998 Link in description....
Louis $900
on sale now for $650 usd.
It takes longer than 35 seconds for the truck to warm up and kick out heat anyways...lol..that unit is sick Greg!..liked the video!👍
Did you miss the part where he said he remote starts the vehicle for it to warm up before he gets in it and turns the key? With OEM controls the cab warms up as the vehicle's engine warms up. With this system, the fan and control;s are OFF until he turns the key and the radio boots 35 seconds later.
recent research has shown that it's just better to run vehicle cold at easy RPM range for a few minutes going to school or work and thus heat core kicks in quicker. I've tried this and do notice a difference, but it seems like forever when your cold or you kids are whining about being cold, then all to soon everyone is hot! lol
When you start the truck the heat is off, and it stays off until you physically walk out to the truck and turn it on. Your truck could idle for 8 hrs with no heat cuz the new screen automatically shuts off the heat or AC every time you start the truck
@@fernandadeavan104 well damn I was hoping yall found the setting by now.
its ok but the bootup takes SOOO LOOONG
Awesome video. Newer ones keep the factory ac and heat board. So you can remote start with heat.
Having only one output for bass is perfectly fine because it's a mono signal. In other words, it is not stereo signal because most people don't run their subwoofers in stereo.
Great Video BTW!!!
A mono signal for this expensive junkpile of a radio? What is this, 1972?
@@houseofno I agree, but it isn't the end of the werld :)
Just emailed em about a 2011 f-150. They replied saying they plan on making it. Will be getting it for sure.
@Randy Travis not yet. In development I'll link they're response
Hi Brandonkramer1983,
we are planning to make one for 2011 ford 150.
you can follow our facebook. once we finish, we will inform you
Thank you.

I dont even have an F-150 but you keep me interested so I had to watch the whole thing. 👍
Well, this should shame Ford to start putting a “big boy” screen in their trucks! Excellent video!
It would probably be crazy overpriced though 😂
All car electronics installation instructions should start with taking the negative off the battery. Also, I don't have an f150, cool video :).
I was shown this same product in my buddy's truck. It's freaking sick. I'm getting one really soon
Thank you so much for this in depth review!!!!! Ive been waiting to see one before i pulled the trigger
It would drive me crazy waiting on the different features. It looks sweet though!
Hold that gauge cluster "Baby Daddy" LOL
I think the moral of this story is; don't bother spending twenty minutes to pry off the driver's side radio dash panel without removing the gauge cluster to make it easier, when your just gonna pull the same gauge cluster off twenty minutes later to hook up the power harness to the back of it.
I'm really considering buying a F150 because of how easy you made this look
At least it will give you something to play with while you wait for the tow truck to show up.
sir, that looks awesome!
I'm renting 2019 v8 f150 and its a beauty.
This screen setup on an older f150 is sick!
I'll never own a truck and my BMW has touch screen navigation and all, yet here I am watching this
Get a better job and maybe you can afford a 2012 or newer car/truck haha
Has your BMW broken down yet?
You need to go into your settings and change your city or time zone. It seems to think you are one time zone over. I appreciate the video and you made it a family affair. Nice. Thank you for sharing because I want something like this in my 1980 Jeep Cherokee SJ.
Me - clicks link for radio
Link- 899.99$
Me- clicks other video
For a 12 inch thats not bad lol you could easily pay 350 for a 7.1 with hardly half the features in a comparable vehicle. I have a 15 chevy(42k$) and the closest thing to this ive found is a 10 inch at 1300$.
Lmao on the real it sounds like you require a reality check buddy...
You cant acquire quality products for dirt cheap, unless you are stealing them. Do you expect it to be as much as the midgrade head units at walmart?
Yes phoenix radio still in business
Great video. And it looks totally killer.. Looks like a $5000 option.
@Ryan He never said he would pay for a 5k option, he just said it looked like one. There is nothing wrong with that.
While it doesn't yield you such a large screen I ended up putting a 2017 Ford Sync 3 unit into my 2013 F-150 Platinum. After programming the APIM the whole thing works with zero issues and I have factory ford Carplay/Android Auto in my '13.
How mich of a pita was that?
Braxton! Dang nammit Braxton!. You should have him in all your vids helping you.
EmuOnWheels Yes! Definitely! His dry sense of humor made the video funnier.
Great video . After watching this i ordered one for my 14 f-150
One thing to check for is to turn the update time from GPS to off. Should fix the time issue.
First time on the channel. Thanks for the vid Red Beard. I have a 2018 F-150 and have seen these for the F-150 and think it looks great. Of course I had the same concerns that you spoke about so I'm glad I found this video to see your review on it. I'm about to check out your channel to see if you posted another video of it after you had for a few months like you spoke about at the end and if not then I just subscribed and will check it out once you post it. Again, thanks for the video and I'm glad I found your channel. God Bless Brother.
First time hitting your channel but “Son of a Kankle bandit” = my subscription.
Got to say you did well to not get frustrated and finish the installation it looks real nice
Hold that gauge cluster baby daddy 😂💀
I have been waiting for someone to comment this.
Anxiously awaiting that follow-up video!
I think it looks good, looking forward for your next review video about the same
Bit the bullet and bought one from them. Made sure I got the "high end" model (highest ram/rom and best cpu). With it being March 2024 hopefully all the bugs have been worked out.
Awesome setup bud. Very thorough. For the minor dislikes, it still is badass. When I get my f150 is 4 weeks, that is gonna be one of my upgrades! Enjoy !👍🏾
You need to set the GMT in settings for the clock. it's in settings under clock/date.
There's also a setting in the router for the WiFi for the time zone and NTP setting. That's probably what's causing the time to change.
He was talking about it being set an hour early or later, maybe he is in daylight savings time and he either needs to turn it on or off.
Pro Tip: When buying an Android car radio.. make sure it's an octa-core and not a quad-core unit, It makes a big difference on start ups and playing music off the USB connector. As for me, I found a 12v USB hub online and I'm using a Samsung 850 EVO SSHD 125Mb hard drive for my music storage.
Glad there's guys like you out there, so guys like ME don't have to do this scary disassembly stuff . . .
Cool video but we were always taught to disconnect the battery 1st...I know its only a stereo but still good practice.
I'm pretty sure, you forgot to install the always hot wire. Most every android radio o have installed will have one hard boot, and after that, it just goes to sleep so that when you start the truck, or vehicle, it just takes a second too soft boot.
Granted, it’s 3 years after your video. but, I bought the 13” for my ‘12 Raptor and I love it! Startup is about 15 seconds for it to fully boot.
The only thing I don’t have is thrown front facing camera. But they say a software update can fix it. We shall see. Great video, I need to upload one on my other channel.
Did they fix the heat and ac issue?
@@NOHOEMOE possibly, I haven’t had any issues. My ac/heat/defrost F/R, heated and ventilated seats all work. The only thing that doesn’t is the stock front off-road camera.
*truck radio comes on*
Me: 'didnt he just say he used to do radio installs?'
Thanks for the upda6, was about to install it. However after reading your update, I think I'm going to waite until you find to better. Once again thanks. Keep posting.
Hey Red Beard, how about an update video? I have a 2011 f-150 and I am looking to upgrade my radio. Are these Phoenix units worth it, or is there a better product out there?
Now I want F150 to make a deal with installation this amazing screen in truck. Thank you!
Holy that unit's bad ass. I wonder if they make it for the 04-08 model F150.
God I wish they did. I have a 7" unit in mine now and after seeing this im sitting here like "TAKE MY MONEY!!!!"
Bryan Garrett, same
I would get one if they did!
Dude what a sweet truck! Need one of those radios … I can hear the 5.0 rumbling
Dude, this is a fantastic review. Awesome. Thanks for doing this.
THANK YOU for doing this video!!! I WANT 1 for my 2011 Raptor
This thing is trash!! Got one after watching this video and as soon as it was installed none of the ac/ heat components worked. Dealt with customer service for weeks trying to go through settings but nothing. Finally they decide it was a bad ac card and in order for me to get another without waiting a couple more weeks I was told it was their policy that a deposit on another would have to be put down. On top of the ac/ heat issue the temperature guage only shows Celsius and no way to change it, the date/ time never stays how you set it and the unit is pretty slow and glitches quite a bit. I learned the hard way that it's trash and customer service is horrible. You've been warned
Regret to say this but he is right. Unit is slow and ac is f_cked on mine too.
My a/c does the same thing, I figured if you take the temp up to 61 degrees it kicks on the a/c compressor and thats how mine works
Thanks for the warning!
Are there any of these massive screens that do work really well?
@Tsrif Tsal what's orb interface?
I love how the title explains the video perfectly
You have a nice touchscreen but can't warm it up in the cold....good trade off....
When Nice=Phenomenal. But hey first world problems am i right?
Outstanding review!!!! Keep us updated on those issues!! I think they are serious downfalls.
Where’s that follow up video showing the amp connection.
So you basically go from an apple watch screen to an I-pad... that thing looks great!
"son of a cankle bandit"
laughed too hard had to subscribe lol
just to do what you did is just awesome!! regardless of its lag!
I've been waiting for the follow-up video.
I'm curious if the climate control was fixed and I'm also curious about the could start up time.
I'm in-between this and upgrading to sync 3 but they're isn't a tonne of info on these online
Just ordered mine. Gonna use this video to install myself. Thanks for making this video.
MrNewmanRay how is it working for you?
@@tatejr21 its awesome and really wasn't hard to install
Holy Crap you are A GOD Redbeard! I have a 2015 Chevy Cruze that I drive UBER in when I have downtime or want some extra play cash. Having an Android Radio with Play Store Support and a HUGE screen will be a MILLION times better than having a stupid phone holder and trying to see that small screen-- I can just run the Uber Driver app from my radio! Contacting Phoenix TOMORROW to ensure the one they have on the website will fit my specific car. Had I never seen this video of yours or had I not been subscribed to you, I would have NEVER fixed/solved/figured this annoyance out. Thanks Bud!
Way easier to install than the iPad I installed in my truck. The screen looks great, the HVAC issue kind of sucks but an update by the devs could fix that I would think, that is if they want to fix it. Unfortunately this company doesn't make one that will work in my truck but I'm fine with my iPad install, Great vid Brother.
@Ryan this is also just an android tablet with custom trim, it's no different. in fact the ipad probably has a lot better hardware on day 1 since the guy in the video said this one already struggles to run google maps
@@tech99070 Yup, these will be so dated and insecure when they don't get any major security updates. That said, if you can get the same harness and software for an iPad, which I doubt, I'd definitely go for that.
I only tend to use Waze and an audio app myself, so I'm making a head unit from a Raspberry Pi with a 7" screen running Crankshaft that supports Android Auto.
The clock must be set at a different region ...... great video....!
They should make a app that lets you adjust the heat and air from your phone
If you are on the same WiFi network I believe there are apps that will let you do that.
Why would you need that? You'll be in the car anyways and this thing is literally a huge phone. Plus your phone should be in your pocket when you drive.
@@esaedvik I was talking about after auto starting the truck in the mornings to get around the tablet defaulting to off for the heating and air controls. Not while driving.
@@DBruno If it's powered like the stock radio, it won't turn on until the key is turned, even with remote start, so it wouldn't connect.
He had my respect when I saw the Milwaukee
Hey red beard, u should download your area on google maps, works perfect on my truck. its a simple feature in maps.
I ordered one after seeing this video for 2010 F150 appreciate it
rob haight does it work with 2010 F150 gem/sjb system?
Braxton is awesome
Atoto A6 Pro is a really good double din android unit. I have it installed in my 04 Nissan Maxima.
See if they have a firmare update it might fix your problems.
"Braxton is locking doors like he owns the place" Lmao, thanks for the video, hadn't heard of the company but they make a similar product for my explorer. I've been wanting to put one of these in for a while, but I hadn't found any good ones under $1000, so I had started building one, with the hard part being reverse engineering the canbus to replicate ac controls, steering wheel etc.... But this one is a good price and already has all the work done! basically a no brainer lol. Thank you!
You love it buts it’s slow and heat control will not work with auto start why bother, just one more pet peeve lol
I can see you acting like Sheev from The Dukes Of Hazard movie. You need an armadillo hat lol.
La explicación es excelente, bastante didáctica y muy bien explicado. Lamentablemente este tipo de radios no traen manuales de instalación y del propietario. Me gustaría que este tuturial también esté en español. Saludos muy especiales.
I don’t know why I’m watching this, I don’t even have a f150. But that’s badass
3:55 “son of a kankle bandit”
If you use a factory remote start system is automatically sets the heat while its running. It doesn't use the settings from the controls until you get in the truck. At least that's how my '11 F-150 works with factory aftermarket remote start (Ford system but uses a separate remote)
so how's it still working? any plan on a update video?
That's a pretty sweet upgrade! I have a 2013 and might have to try this... I know this video is a year old but, @ 28:12 when you hit the home button, I noticed the time was correct there and wrong above it in the notification bar (top).
Not sure how I got to this video but, I am glad I did and I am going to check out more of your videos! 👍🏽
Good video nice unit I wish I can do this to my f150 but all I have to say is hell of a beard 👍
When you said ‘door ajar’ I lost it
So after almost a year what are your thoughts on this radio?
Dude my name is Braxton and you scared the shit out of me I’m over here like don’t break it and then you go Braxton!
Any updates on this bad boy?
It overheated, the LCD suffered a chemical meltdown which launched it into outer space. It is currently traversing the Kuiper Belt. I'm happy to report all of the 7mm bolts however, held their own and survived the ordeal. They remained fastened in their original locations on the Ford's dash.
nice install...hopefully Phoenix will resolve those 2 issues.
“bABy dAdDY”
This video is gold. These are the exact issues I was afraid of when i was looking at this unit. I hope they can fix it and would love to hear any feedback you get.
That problem where it doesn't retain the last temps of the vehicle can be fixed with a software update, you'd just have to tell them so they can fix it, it's not cause of Android so to say, it's a software problem whoever programmed it
I read the specs and was surprised that the radio was not HD for this price point. I'll be checking for new versions. Anyway, it looks great.
has any updates changed since you installed this unit 1 year ago? did they fix the ac like you mentioned or any other updates? thanks
I'm hoping he says something on any uodates
Holy Moly....you have to take the whole bloody dash apart to get that thing in there.
windows vista boots faster than that, holy shit man.
😂😂😂😂👌🏽
looks great. nice clean job and the plug n play makes it easy to install. thx for the video
Any idea if this type of unit is made for a 2004 chevy Suburban?
There are some people that after being around them( watching their video) and listening to them talk for 5 mins You immediately tell yourself, " I like this sum-bitch" . That is you kind sir.
Awesome video, keep up the informative content.
And keep being you,
Not that I need to tell you that.
So after all this time are you still using this 12” system? If so what do you think about it?
Pretty sure it was huge FAIL if he hasn’t responded, China garbage , was expected
"I was doing what most guys do after I got my truck... Browing ebay and Google for stuff for my truck. Window shopping"
