This unit is working great with my 1999 Grand Cherokee. I had to make sure to order the single DIN version. It looks really sharp. I'm glad you said that it started up quickly because mine was taking a full minute. After looking at the settings, I found mine was set to shut down after 30 seconds. I now have it on sleep mode and wakes right up after starting the car.
"The head unit will outlast the car's life".... Can't oversell any more than that folks.
Edit: despite the fact of owning it for 1 month.
Till they stop supporting it and none of android apps will work. then it becomes a dumb (sometimes dumber) then the factory
Maybe he's planning to sell the car in a couple weeks.
It will outlast any GM on the road! 😂
@@poppynokc1977 what do you consider a long life?
@@rdlynch as far as being comparative?
Just wanted to say thank you for this video. I just installed this in my 2013 Corolla. The install was relatively easy, it looks great, and most importantly it sounds amazing.
Whats the boot-load time when you start your car?
Can you please share a picture of how it fits in the Corolla. Did you buy any special harness to make it work?
Definitely want an Android head unit for my 07 Ford Econoline van. Can't wait
been loving your videos man. keep it up!
I have had a android unit from eBay and it’s so great! I had a JVC before that, and it sucked compared to this.
I want the floating tablet style because I want my car to look like a Tesla haha
Oh boy, now I can watch RUclips hands free while driving! How useful!
Um no dont watch youtube while driving
Loooooooool 😂 😂
+1 for revisiting rather than riding the 'Simpsons monorail' hype train out of town
You probably don't experience this because you're in a warm climate, but I can definitely see it overheating in a place like here in Michigan where we have to have the heat running all winter. As an Uber driver, I constantly run into that issue having my Pixel mounted by the vents.
make the heat come out of the floor instead of the top
@@scottieboi3000 Definitely have tried that. Heat still leaks/radiates through the top vents.
the internals of the unit are hidden within the dash so it should have enough insulation to prevent it from over heating.
Facts
my car doesn't throw heat in my eyes at least in auto mode.
Sure the vents are blocked, but hey at least the AC keeps the screen cool on those hot days :D
Thank you for your response. I watch your videos all the time and I'm considering an Android unit for my Porsche Cayenne
Just bought a Kenwood DDX9005S a couple weeks ago and it has been pretty great. It is a double din setup but doesn't have the huge screen, looks and sounds great. Had I known about this radio before hand I would have seriously considered getting it. I do like the look of it, one thing the Kenwood possibly has over the radio in the video is that the Kenwood supports wireless Android auto. You can just fire it up with the phone in your pocket (if you have a supported phone, luckily I did). I don't have to mess around with wires at all. However while the Kenwood does have the enhanced TTPS (tire pressure monitoring) it wasn't as slick as what you had. It showed tire pressure in each tire but only sometimes?? It's still a new unit so I'm not sure what is going on there but it sorta works. I suspect it is a limitation of the OEM system, I wonder if I can get that adapter for my Kenwood and make it work.
Still this radio does look really great, I think I'd prefer a smaller screen that fit in the DIN area personally. That aside if I was to do it all again it would be a coin flip on which way I would go.
I like my Pioneer I know I'm getting the performance that I want and good quality sound
Pioneer sound quality is way way better
Hey do a updated video of this please.. i watch this one and the other one like 50 times .. it would be great to see a follow up on it after like 7 months
Those vents may help cool the unit with direct exposure to sunlight
It needs to slide up and down without moving on its own. On my 2008 WRX, it would only block the clock/temp. Looks pretty sweet!
This has to be sponsored lmao literally nobody would miss the price by 300 dollars
Wait so is the price 300$?
@@wissamsidki5237 yea . The 100 bucks one is definately lower specs but still usable
@@alexandrudinca3080 thank man😃
Do you think this will work in my 2011 Chrysler 300 I currently have a Pioneer NEX8400 with CarPlay or whatever model
Think I'm gonna trade out my double screen soundstream for this.
So I have a question about the boot up time it always says system something than android... A little bit different than what you show in the video with it coming on just instantly is that in the settings.. Every time I turn on and off my car and it has been off for a while it needs to boot up.
this model is fully rootable now too, it was fairly easy if your familiar with rooting
Thanks for the update video. Looks like a great unit. I really like the size and responsiveness. But I think the covering the vents my be a deal breaker for me probably. Also are those tire readings correct. Your tires are way off on pressure. Lol. Thx again!
Hoping too see another review a year and two after installation. Great video. :)
thanks
I think I'd be shocked if he had this more than 6 months or at least until the new version or something else on the market hits
Hey John, I noticed some buyer reviews of this that said the volume maxes out at 30. Sounds pretty restrictive. Can it even get loud?
do you know if this unit is compatible with Uconnect from Dodge?
I wonder if it would work to install in a semi truck for ELD and truck GPS purposes...???...
how did you get the volume and stuff lights to come on?
I have a question about that TPMS dongle. Did it require installation of new TPMS sensors in the tires, or did it work with the OEM ones?
Thanks to your videos on this head unit, I'll be buying it soon. The specs are nearly better than my phone. Lol
haha, your phone does should be do most of the flexing.
It's a nice piece for sure
Great videos! Just picked up this unit due in great part to your solid reviews.
mdmackey would love to hear your views on yours pls.
Does it have a split screen? For example one half for media, second for maps. Can you make a video about it?
The feature and functionality looks great. However as you mentioned, the unit blocks the vent. To me that is a big issue especially when it's cold outside. That means I have to leave the two vents closed to avoid pushing all the hot air at the unit.
Will I be able to install it in a 2016 Subaru Outback can you play DVD movies on the unit thank you very much
Need to know if it's got rca signal outputs for a dedicated front,rear and subwoofer amplifiers if so are the signal outputs 2 volts or 4 volts.If all of these options are available on this head unit only then I will call it a premium head unit and buy it.
Is it flippable to vertical orientation?
Also, how does it integrate with vehicle info? I. E., If I stuck this in my ram would it display vehicle info like the OEM does?
Are you getting data from the cars CAN bus? If yes is it through the OBD 2 port?
The Apple car play dongle is not working? Any updates links or anything better/newer . I’m looking into a head unit. What’s the exact resolution?
Is it possible to install a car monitoring app, like Torque, and have it connect to a OBD device with Bluetooth? And is it possible to have it autostart that app maybe?
Wheres the link? I have a 2017 Tacoma and I'd love to get one. Also is there a harness for the steering wheel control?
Do you need to put on special valve For the TPS readings?
Is the screen removable? I had an android unit made just for my car from Ali-E and it worked great for a year but I think the cold winter nights killed it. The screen just stopped working. I love this design but it would be great if I could take the screen inside at night.
Can you use a Bluetooth OBD2 on the deck? Like see all the gauges ect.
can you use aux cord with this head unit? i assume the video out is an alternative for aux. is it?
I own a 2005 Land Rover LR3 SE. Would this work on my truck?
Is the Uber and Lyft app compatible with this head unit?
Do you recommend daisata or joying? They both have DSP and what do you think of seicane?
How would i get this into Australia since the amazon link won’t ship it here
Does this head unit work with cars existing steering wheel controls and center console joystick? Looks amazing!
On Amazon it says that can use two 32GB+ sd cards? Where would you insert them?
Behind the screen it tilts foward
So my question is i habe Bose in my truck will it still work with the bose system?
Hey bro do you know if this would work for 2009 Mercedes? It was before they started doing the Tablet screens. If so, can you send me a link to a harness adapter for this unit!
I know it come with cd/dvd input. But is in the back of the screen. So how you able to use it?
I got a dasaita 1din 10.2 android 8.0 universal head unit. i conect it to my car bmw1 e88. but the head unit keeps rebooting everytime. then it plays 1 minute , then 5 minutes . .... what can i do please . i m from Belgium. i hope i get an answer. thank you very much already
I have an 05 eclipse with a single din radio currently in there. Is there any disadvantage to purchasing the single din version?
Can this head unit or something similar works for a 2008 lexus gs350 ?
How can I update my head unit to the last Android version?? When I try to update it from the system always say no avalible new version. And its Android 8.0
I've heard that alot of Android Head Units makes your car audio quality pretty bad. Is it true with this one as well?
Are you able to still have subs and amps?
Also what's is dsp?
Hi John, guess u are driving a Forester, just like me. How bad is the air vent being blocked? And did u get a dash kit to install this?? Thanks from Singapore!
What theme are you using for your android unit? Also, I had mine install but the tilt is very flimsy. When I launch my car the screen flips down. Did you make yours more stiff somehow?
Thanks in advance
My unit has little thumb screws on both sides of the swivel behind the screen
i got a similar one installed but they didnt connect my wheel steering volume controls. I can't increase and lower the volume from the wheel what can i do to get this installed correctly the guy says that its glitchy to do the wheel controls, but i think he just didnt know how.. can you lead me to a video that shows me how to install this for myself or some tips on how to do it? love all your videos by the way.
hey, so I looked at both your reviews for this android head unit and you kind of convinced me to get it the one thing I don't like cause I had the nex 8200 is that when I put the car in reverse the music cuts out do you know any apps or tweaks that can change that?
How bright is the display at night? Can it be dimmed enough so it doesn't impact night vision?
Where is the install video for this. Does the reverse camera work?
Thanks for the update. Looking to get this for my 2015 tacoma. Who and where would I have to go to get all the proper wirings?
toyota and subaru use the same harness so it should be pretty easy.

what is the meaning of universal ?
How many RCA out jacks for amplifier hook ups does it have?
Can u please tell me if the App Store supports Apple Music app doe lush from play store.
Does hotspotting with T-Mobile binge-on apps like RUclips and Netflix work without costing data? Does this unit come with HDMI output?
i don't have t-mobile so i can't comment...
I'm sure it will work,
100 percent it will work with a vpn
Did you need an adapter for the steering wheel controls?
How to stop the creaking sound of the screen hinges? When driving around the screen makes a lot of noise. Any solution?
Does anyone know the distance between the front of your dash to the back of the screen if this was mounted vertical and not on a curved dash?
Hey John Will this fit in my 2006 Acura MDX w/ Bose & Nav system?
Do I need a dash kit for an 09 civic in order to install this in my car?
Have you tried looking at the screen wearing polarised sunglasses? I have what looks like the same unit sold by Polaris in Australia. The screen blacks out when wearing my sun glasses. This is the only issue I have with it. The Polaris Unit is more adjustable as it can be moved up and down and has a ball type swivel mount to turn the screen towards you. It is marketed with off road navigation as well. Other than that I am sure it is the same. Check out the Polaris site.
What’s the difference between the 2 links you posted? Is there any newer version of this????
Does it work with civic 10th with A/C controls on screen (EXL)?
Where can I get harness and wiring for 2013 Kia Optima
Can I use the factory back up camera on this radio?
pd 329 for mine, xtrons 10.1in been using it about a year in my truck.. it's ok, but the voltage on the rca out is pretty weak, I have to use a line level booster.. I actually rooted my unit and took out all the ads.. never even used a cd or dvd.. it lacks a lot of fine tuning for the crossover, I have a big 3700w system.. only thing it has is an eq, no real adjustment like a kenwood.. tried using viper4android and it puts out a lot of distortion..
Ya the floating tablet looks great when it’s blocking your a/c vents
Can you still see the screen with polarized glasses?
I use an app called macrodroid, it gets the phone to turn on the hotspot when you set the rule of being connected to the Bluetooth (and off when disconnected)
I would like to know...how long is the boot time?? Will i have to wait one or more minutes for that thing to boot up...i saw reviews where the usb ports stopped working when it gets cold...units dying and beeing overall very laggy...better buy a two din pioneer for 500 dollars...or make it 600 and have a product that really might outliive your car...
Need a single DIn so one won't work for me.
The specs look pretty much the same as the lesser known Idoing that you reviewed. The Idoing however is quite a bit cheaper.
Is the Idoing a step down in quality or are they similar as the specs would seem to indicate?
Thnx for all your reviews . They are very helpful.
RUclips on the road where does it get the internet. Does it streem from the phone
Great job on the videos! Man these things are expensive, is there a way I can just get CarPlay on my car(2013 Dodge Journey SXT)?
Where can I get this unit or is there another version of it newer
Can you get this screen to face the driver at all? If not do you think the mount could be modded to do so?
My vent are not blocked in my jeep commander its perfect but not as loud with amps like my alpine
I'm not sure if you said, but is does it have a detachable face?
Does this unit work on a 2005 Honda Civic ? Thank you
Does this have to use WiFi to work or can you just use through your phone
I got this unit as well but what launcher were you using to boot into this UI?
Is this compatible with the Honda C-RV 2015 LX?
did u need a subaru harness for it to plug and play?
So, now with your other reviews, do you still recommend this unit?
is this unit fits on 2017 subaru WRX?🤔 and is this plug n play. thanks 🙏🏼
Can you wear polarized sunglasses and still see the screen?
Do you have to buy a wiring harness for this?
