I bought one of these today for some solid reasons imo:
1. Affordable
2. Sony is premium quality imo.
3. Everything about it's build and gadgets it comes with make it well worth it.
The CarPlay seems laggy in the video is it slow ?
The constant beginner screen was driving me crazy, and I couldn't find the SETTINGS icon - you showed both of those in about 4 seconds - when I stop laughing, I will go out in the garage and finish setting this thing up. Thanks for the help - video was great!
Buen dia, oye no me queda claro si cuando conectas el car play el telefono se carga con carga rapida o es carga lenta? hay quien dice que no puedes tener waze y spotify en la pantalla en el mismo tiempo
Great review! Concise and to the point. Excellent job man!
does this have mount points in the same locationsas a full height double-din or does this need to be installed as a single-din?
I'm having issues using a regular USB. After 3 seconds into a song the unit buzzes really loud and cuts off. Also, apple play and GPS is spotty...goes in and out.
Thank you for this great review summary! I just bought a 3250 model at BB. Was looking for a 1000, but they had an “open box” 3250 on the shelf, so I grabbed it for a little less. I’m still on my old school stock radio, so I appreciate your review very much as I venture into the 20th century (somewhat).
I’m planning to get it from BB. What’s your experience with 3250 so far ? Anything you don’t like ?
@@A.L.T.A.F unfortunately, I haven’t been able to install it. After a couple of attempts, I’ve concluded I need to take it back to BB in a couple of weeks (free install on as part of the purchase).
Just bought the 3250 from BB and had it installed in my Jeep this afternoon. The free installation is a big plus! So far LOVE this unit. It replaced my Boss GPS Nav head unit. Love the Sony and CarPlay GPS nav so much better!!! It’s smooth, responsive, and darn fast! Haven’t even touched all of the features yet. But definitely a huge upgrade!
@@derricksmith1498 great to hear, and thanks for sharing. I finally scheduled the install after messing with the wires in vain. Had to wait for a while to get on the schedule but should have it next week.
@@eljefeslash with the free bb installation does it come with a free double din adapter and do they install the USB port somewhere for you?
Hi i got new sony speakers and a 4 channel amp for my 2015 kia optima, but it sounds the same as my old speakers without an amp. Do i need a new radio to get more watts or what would u recommend
How does this compare to the Pioneer 1700NEX? Which retails for the same price
I love that you can use as digital gauge cluster aswell. I love it!
How you doing that? You running tourqe pro through the mirrorlink app?
@@prem18rs-59 using my phone as hotspot. 😉 and also Real Guage is my Favorite! But you need a Bluetooth OBD to read engine real time.
Phone links to stereo with Wifi, and Bluetooth OBD Links to dash kit with Bluetooth
👍 Hope this helps!
Is this unit wifi compatible? I have wifi ezlink for my digital guages..
Not sure if this unit has Wi-Fi. You might need to do a little shopping but they are out there. I got mine on Amazon. They are called android stereo headunits. Basically a tablet for your car. Hope this helps
@@morrislong3358 I guess I'm asking direct wifi, you stated you connect your phone via wifi... I ask because my gages connect to my phone via wifi, if this is possible i should be able to connect to unit.
So this is the one I got and I added the SiriusXM tuner option, but I’m trying to figure out where the radio ID is to get SiriusXM because it’s SiriusXM ready and the tuner is install but only the commercial channel works and then when I try to call into SiriusXM, they ask for the radio ID and then when I give it to them, they said the invalid radio ID so I don’t understand
where do I install this when I have the factory player in the glove box?
I drive skoda octavia (similar to vw golf).
Trying to find out if this unit has a serial port that’s compatible with a mustang 2013 interface.
Anyone know the answer to this ?
I’d appreciate any feedback on this.
I have this installed and I want to try out and connect the AV input to an iPhone can you please let me know what exact products I need in order to do that please.
Can you please provide the links to all the wire/cables//adapters needed to be able to stream Netflix or other streaming apps from an iPhone? Thanks!
2nd!
Netflix restricts output from the phones usb cable. So not happening.
Would you like fries with that too? Lol.
Not true I have a home boy that was able to watch Netflix on his
I recently got a steal on a really nice 2006 M.Y. vehicle for a daily. I don't at all mind rolling around in an old car except I really like having modern infotainment and sound. I think I've narrowed my search down to this unit to replace the stock radio. I didn't want to spend a ton since the vehicle is just a daily workhorse, but I also didn't want junk that may glitch out on me in short order. This, plus a compact hide-a-way sub (considering the JBL Micro one) and debating replacing the stock door speakers (I may have to take off the door panels anyway to diagnose a door ajar sensor issue) and I think I'll be golden.
I'm in the same boat actually with my 2007 Ridgeline. It already HAS a stereo upgrade (pioneer DVD unit circa 2010 naturally) but I want Android auto, and two of the upgraded speakers are blown anyways.
My big conundrum is do I go with this cheaper unit since it's an older vehicle - or spring for the wireless android auto version instead? I love the idea of wireless but it may push my stereo budget too high for an older vehicle. I may go with this cheaper unit. I can always add wireless Android auto via a dingle later anyways.
What if i don't buy the steering wheel adapter, this av head unit will still work with out the steering wheel control right?
Does anyone know what steering wheel control kit he showed? Mind you, my car doesn’t have steering wheel controls so I want to add them on.
Whats needed for the screen mirroring?
I just bought AX 3200 sterio for my car but when i take youtube i can't make it full screen.why... Can you help me
It looks like a single din , is it? If so can you change where the "din" is on the screen?
Would this fit on a 2008 smart car?
superb technical review, without all the gibberish. would've loved to hear ur opinion though on the audio and tuner capabilities. The tuner is usually important for the user going for this type of head unit. thx
can you change the radio station while still on carplay screen such as while waze is on and dont lose waze to change radio station??
What is responsive screen? Its either resistive or capacitive. Capacitive is glass and whats on cellphones.
Sonys been hanging in their for a long time nice radio
Are these new Sonys faster than the previous model XAV-1000? I like the USB port on front of the radio and a knob. Just thinking it might be outdated versus this model you reviewed.
I've had both the xav1000, xav3000 & xav3200.
Only reason I like the 1000 is because of the volume knob (very handy)
Aside from that, 3000&3200 wins every other day with carplay for apple AND android. Looks a lot cleaner in the console too
@@willhoward2724 how is the screen responsiveness of 3200 when using the google maps on carplay? Is it laggy when pinching and zooming on the map?
hello, Work with steering wheel controls ? I have a suzuki SX4 CVT 2013
I bought myself a kia soul and the dealership installed this Sony in my car. On the home screen I can't find web link or android auto or Apple car play. How can I activate that?
Can anyone suggest me? Kenwood, Alpine, or Sony for UI smoothness, fast, best Apple CarPlay experiences, and good sound?
Kenwood - 9019s
Alpine 660
Sony 5500 or 3200
Thank you guys
How do I turn the thing off?? Iv got the 3250 bo direct off and other than turning the volume down I'm stumped
Hey bro what about glare on the screen when it’s in back up camera mode ..?
Is this compatible for the susuky jimni 2021 model?
Is Spotify the only music subscription app that can be installed? Can I install RUclips music?
Could someone link me the adapters I need to play netflix on that radio ? Av to hdmi upscaler.. how do you wire it up and how does it work with your phone ? Link, yt video
Any idea on how to bring the rear camera on without being on reverse?
What's the preout voltage of the preouts on the 3250? The 3200 has less than 4V...if the 3250 does as well, I'm better off looking at a Pioneer at the same price and more sound features and better preout voltage...
Pioneer have the worst pre out voltage only 2 volts.
Does it Play 128 gb pendrive? What is the maximum capacity of pendrive?
I have this, my phone connects to the bluetooth but no sound! Any advice
Can this be installed on a 1 din slot with the screen outside the stereo hole?
How do you know if the steering wheel controls are analog?
Can you adjust the brightness in the screen?
thank you. Very thorough.
Does anybody know how many volts if the pre-out RCA?
I just had this installed...Unable to locate the auto volume control option, to lower the audio volume on lower gears.
What color cable would i need to tap into so my backup camera switches on automatically on the stereo? I have the sony xav-ax 5500
You need to tap into your reverse wire
Purple/white
@@BreakersStereo Thank you
Will this fit 2006 tundra access cab?
Anybody know why no power is going through the head unit in a 08 X-Trail. Everything is connected but no power at all????
Looking for the newest most up to date system for a 370z with the bose package, nicest screen setup I can get without doing braniac tablet…..I’m liking this one
Is this better bang for the buck or Boss be9acp with floating screen? Both are similarly priced at $299, the be9acp has 9 inch floating screen.
The boss unit is not half bad for the money and you get a much larger screen.
Boss doesn't have screen mirroring
JVC/Kenwood both have. 6.8 for $199
What would you guys recommend. I don’t have aftermarket speakers, I just want to upgrade my radio on 07 Tahoe but don’t want to eliminate DVD for the kid., apple car play is needed. Thanks
We have the JVC KD-V960BW that has dvd. It’s on the high side thou ..
Hey, thank you for the great review, very complete. Do you know if the backup camera can be AHD? or is not supported? thank you.
Thanks for the comment. The resolution is not HD so it won’t make much of a difference
@@BreakersStereo Hi. I changed my android Chinese radio for this one and before I gear into reverse and the camera showed up, now with the Sony one I can’t, I got press a button, there is a way to fix that and make automatically when I put reverse like before? Thanks in advance
@@pkth2 you need to connect the reverse wire
Will it fit 2010 yukon denali xl 🤔 👀
Best buy is now selling a AX3250. I can't find any info on it. I'm guessing it's just a 3200 but exclusive to best buy?
My Sony XAV-AX3250 didn't come with a steering wheel control plug in the box. Where would I buy that from?
Hi. Would you happen to know if this is a capacitive touch or resistive touch screen.
Resistive
Is there anyway to make this wireless apple
Play ?
Nice video, but I'm a little confused. You said this was a "responsive" touch screen, not a "resistive" touchscreen. Does responsive mean capacitive? If responsive = capacitive, then it is not cheaper but more expensive. Am I missing something?
Thank you for a great review. Only issue I do not like is that my steering wheel controls do not work for the phone so I have to use the interface instead
You have to buy a swc (steering wheel control) adapter I have a VW Jetta with steering wheel control and it works great but for my vehicle that was another 50-60 dollars 🤷🏾♂️
How do you get the Apple CarPlay app on the screen
Which touchscreen radio would you recommend for a 2011 Hyundai Sonata gls?
I recommend this one
Can you install it where a double din was
Can we got this in single din slot car
Can u run 2 subwoofers and a amp with this radio
What’s the difference between analog and digital steering wheel controls?
Nobody knows
I just installed it and the anti glare screen is driving me nuts. It makes the screen hard to see in the sun light and the screen looks washed up. Anyone know how to remove the anti glare crap. I really dont want to return it
I don't think the video covers that but is the screen adjustable, like can you move it up or down. It looks fixed but I'm not sure.
It’s fixed
You were mentioning this has a responsive touchscreen vs a restive one. What’s a responsive touchscreen? Do you mean capacitive touchscreen? Thank you!
Responsive as in it has good touch input detection
I head there is a wire that connects to the handbrake or park brake.. Which enables video playback... You can simply ground this wire to allow playback in motion....
Does the reverse camera button on the device works? How to activate it?
I know using reverse gear activates rear camera. But wanted to know why there is option in touch screen for reverse camera?
You can Manuel turn on the camera even when you’re not in reverse if you run accessory power to the camera as well as the reverse wire.
How would you compare this radio to the Sony XAV-AX5600?
I have the 5600 and I think the main difference is 2 USB ports and a hdmi port also and capacitive touch screen so it's like glass...Other than that, they look identical
Do we need separate amp for this system
Puedes ver canales de tv abierta mediante A/V in ?
Do these have a power off button?
How u mirror the apple iphone?
What's the highest this volume goes up to
Nice video, with the headunit can you use apple car play without using the cord?
No, it's a budget radio. They make wireless adapters though
Is wireless android is available?
Can you change the button lights
Is the Apple Carplay interface a little laggy on this device ?
And is it worth it to buy a XAV AX 3250 for $350 right now? Please advice !
is very good
The 3250 is literally the exact same radio just the version from Europe. And actually I think it has less features cause I don’t think it has back up camera. Might be wrong on that tho.
What are the brightness levels for the screen? Was hoping you would touch that subject since I had an older model and it only had dimmer and that’s it.
Mine works well but I can’t adjust the brightness
@@mistersuperjackass that sucks!! I had a Honda Fit 2013… the display was somewhat slanted facing up…. And the glare sucked! I was hoping this one had brightness levels….
I got this today. It has brightness levels for when it’s dimmed to headlights you can adjust and for when their off for brighter. You can adjust both modes.
I got that one someone knows how to turn it off with out turning car off
Do you happen to have the link for the hdmi adapter you use for video streaming
thats what i was looking for too
Why sony can't manufacture led and full media stereo for cars
Bcoz in marker we can get multimedia stereo for cars with 10k to 15 k
Even we are spending above 20k then also we are not getting a proper full multimedia car stereo for cars why?????? Why
I bought the XAV-5000 a year ago and I have constant problems. My Apple car play and android auto no longer work and the system freezes on startup from time to time.
Update the software.
Anyone know what wire can run steering wheel controls?
One of the BEST ! radio i ever had,,,
But!!
How you set up,the time!..
And can you put a deferent background ?
Do you know the release date for this? I’ve seen it on display only
It’s out. There just wasn’t a lot release
can i have the link to the adapters please
Dude, answer your cell... lol They are currently $400 cdn at visions. Seems like a good deal. Thanks for your input!
Good review!
-One thing I would like to see is how good the mic is with calls. How clear it sounds on the other end.
I’ve got one and everyone says I sound great. Like I’m using my ear buds.
@@samson7842 hey man, did you plug the mic wire? I installed this radio and people can’t hear me, I was wondering if the guy from the shop put it o not, and he said he didn’t, but does the radio come with an internal mic? Thanks in advance
@@pkth2 yes, my mic wire is plugged into the rear of the unit.
which one would you pick between Sony- ax1000 and ax3200?
I’m wondering this also
Ordered this for my 2015 Camaro. Installing this weekend and yes, I paid 299 for it June 2022.
just paid $272 yesterday
How’s the head unit holding up any problems or complaints I am considering buying 2 of these
@@sunburntattic54gamingchann83 No issues so far.
can i use this on a 2016 tacoma??
Bro it has inbuilt GPS...?
Can you connect your mobile Hotspot!!!
I’ve been searching and searching and searching for a car stereo like this but with a volume knob. And I just can’t seem to find one at this price point. I don’t know if I should just give up and buy one without it.
Not a lot out there with Carplay and android auto with a knob… does your car have steering wheel buttons and if so do you use them for volume…??
@@BreakersStereo actually it does, but I usually reach for the head unit. My other vehicle is a truck with the knob so my instinct is to always reach for it. I just love how fast it is to lower the volume. Guess I could check out the steering wheel control and see how fast it goes up and down. There’s a the Sony 6.2 with the knob but it doesn’t have android that I’m thinking of getting at best cry ( lol that’s what my hubby calls it) for 299
@@BreakersStereo also with the knob, as a passenger I can reach over and quickly lower it when my husband thinks I want to listen to his music at max🤦🏻♀️
Does it stream Tidal for android?
Is this a US release only ?
I can’t seem to find this in Europe 🤔
Looks like it is the 3250 in Europe.
Is Apple CarPlay wireless? Or do I need a cable to connect??
It’s not wireless. You need to have your phone connected.
