I bought the A6 for my truck a couple of years ago. Sold the truck and left the atoto in it.. mistake! I bought a small motor home last November and I just bought a Atoto A6 pro . Love it! Something I like is playing XM streaming from my phone through the head unit it is just like it has XM built In it. Shows the song title and the band name . I'm old, and getting used to the head unit was a challenge but I'm learning . I even have a front dash cam working . I opted not to use the back up cam because the motor home already has a backup in it. I also bought the wireless remote and mounted it on the steering wheel.
THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU for mentioning responsiveness! I am a massive stickler on this and when I heard you say something about it (after watching about 14 other review videos with no mention of it) I immediately looked to see if you had affiliate links and went through them. Thanks for the info. Great little review of all the little caveats that were obviously found by someone who pays attention to the small stuff on tech as I do. Keep it up man. You got a sub out of this one.
Much appreciated man! Glad it helped you out and hope you enjoy the unit!
I also searched for heaps of reviews to see if anyone has mentioned the responsiveness because I have the Atoto A6 Pro and I'm finding it super slow with every app I use such as Spotify, Gmaps and RUclips. Keyboard input is painfully laggy AF.
This was also before and after I updated the OS from Atoto hoping it would improve it but it didn't. I might try factory resetting it to see if that helps.
Saw this in my feed man and thanks for the acknowledgment on the Sygic app. Glad to hear the head until is holding up.
Of course! It has been useful :)
@@TheSundaeDrive Can you load up the car logo as start up screen or screen saver?
No but u can't but u can download a car launcher that has your car logo hope this helps
@@jhuff692 XTRONS Android headunit allows logos on loading
I've been happy with my unit. I wish Atoto also made a programmable wireless keypad for these units that you could stick anywhere so that you can quickly switch between GPS, Music, Phone, etc. apps while driving without looking at the screen.
The unit has 4v low level outputs as well as high level pre-amp out which can be used in almost any combination. It also has sub woofer out, and two video inputs (one for rear cam) along with the front camera USB input. I have everything except TPMS hooked up and all work great.
@@jimb1117 Yeah I've tried that. They act like a keyboard and not a "hotkey".
Just got one of these and am installing Saturday.
Waiting on wiring harness adapter set.
Your other video was a big help in deciding for me.
Don't care about car play and android auto is a minor consideration.
Got the rear and front view cams and OBDII
Will update after installed.
Awesome! Hope you have the same success as we have had with it
I have the Atoto A6 premium on my 2007 Ford Crown Victoria for the past year and half or so and I love it.. just download youtube vanced for ad free and background play on mine but I have a windshield magnet mount I bluetooth to the deck from my Samsung s10 plus.
I too have a crown vic. How was the fitment. Does it rub against the top dash?
this unit display is the best display I ever seen
It's definitely nice!
Fantastic review. Definitely sold me on getting this unit. Thanks!
Awesome! Glad it helped
Much obliged for following up on a product. That's all I really care about is if it's going to last or not. But I suspect it depends on climate on the longevity of any car electronics. Such as me being in Phoenix Arizona, will it last? Or being in a place where it's freezing cold? I'm getting it regardless so...much obliged!
It has worked well in NJ climate - gets up to around 100F in the summer (outside the vehicle) and are 15F in the winter. We have heard that some units have experienced over-heating in hotter climates but it is hard to say if those were rare cases or normal. Our unit has worked without issue on long road trips in summer weather without an issue tho.
Be aware that even know this is a good unit it has a very important issue at least for people that leaves in places with very hot weather like me. I am in Florida and I personally know 2 people that purchased this unit and the issue is over heat. Long drives the unit shuts down when is too hot. Unlike Kenwood and Pioneer this unit does not have cooling system.
Good to know. I think the longest drive I’ve taken with this was 8 hours straight. It didn’t overheat or turn off for me but I know everyone’s unit can vary slightly
O ok NJ boy i was looking on Ur maps I live in NC now but Gloucester County is my old stomping grounds like Deptford Mall. Good video!!! bout to purchase this unit for my Avalanche
Haha yup. At the Deptford mall area regularly. Glad you enjoyed the video!
Yes I did good job!
To delete the preset. Press and hold the station between the arrows. The same way you add it
We'll have to give this a shot! Thanks
Deleting radio stations from that presets bar is really easy, just swipe up on the station you want removed. Found this out by accidentally a couple of stations, so I know it works!
awesome! thanks!
Ayeee, I'm literally about to install this but its the one that's the 10.1 inch . Only been running it on a 12v supply unit inside my home 🤣
Haha nice. Best to test it out first!
So crazy to see your map pop up and my home town is dead center… LOL. HELLO NEIGHBOR
haha hello
Just found this review by accident... Great! One of the most detailed on the user interface. (Other reviews skip over so much!!) So thanks! Any updates for 2022?
I believe updates to the firmware are done by downloading a file on computer then putting it on sd....directions are on their website.
Sounds like a good purchase. I will have to get one at some point.
We would definitely get it again
to remove stations, pswipe up on the station
ok good to know! we will have to check that out.
Good reviews on this unit. Thx. Watched both. Question on SWC. Can the Pro unit you have work with factory installed SWC wires already available or is the inly option to purchase the wireless SWC sold by Atoto?
Hi thanks for the great videos. Looks like great and capable head unit! What do you think about the 7 inch
4GB Ram 32GB ROM Pumpkin android unit? Ive been looking at that last few weeks and looks a decent device?
Can you use a 10.1 atotto inch display for that same , apposed to the 7"inch
Sounds great, thank you! Just a question, does it disconnect from Bluetooth once you turn off your car or it keep it on until you are out of range?
I just got this unit today. I'm replacing the M4 model I have. I loved your videos on this model. Since you've posted this video, 9.6 update has come out. I can't find much information on it. Have you had a chance to update to this version?
Also you should do a video on the M4 vs A6 Pro :P
We have not updated yet. Everything is working well so a little leery of updating lol. We could do a comparison! Just need to get our hands on a unit
@@TheSundaeDrive apple use paranoia lol. Thanks for the video bro
Thank you for addressing a lot of my concerns. 1 question. Can you listen to music while using the GPS navigation?
South jersey represent. Lol
to remove the station is to swipe up
Thanks!
Appreciate the review, I am thinking of buying the updated version of this unit. With that said, is there any other unit that you would consider over this one? I am Android play and this is going into a second vehicle that will be driven only 5 or 6 times a year. Will be adding back up camera and the android play auto but I noticed your link is no longer available. Any other link that works or is everything down because of the CoronaVirus? Thank you for your time and consideration, your feedback is valued!
This is the only one we've used and we haven't had any issues with it. It has worked really well and is used on nearly a daily basis. You may be correct on the dongle. I have seen it sell out before and come back in stock. I know a lot of parts coming from China are delayed.
I notice that you don’t have any flickering on your back up camera. Mine is terrible. Any ideas?
Please I need help, I have that same stereo but it does not load or let me enter the settings options nor does it load to be able to connect to the wifi internet, and when I enter the applications menu the icons look big, what can I do since not even the Does the option reset nor does it work when you touch the reset button?
Tengo ese mismo estereo pero no me deja entrar a configuraciónes del mismo estereo tampoco me deja que lo pueda conectar al wifi y cuando entro al menu de las aplicaciones se ven en grande los iconos intente con el orificio el hueco de resetearlo y no dio tambien le di en la misma opcion del esterero donde dice que reset y sigue igual? Que se puede hacer o que hago gracias?
Would atoto unit work with Alexa car? Such as lowering the volume and pausing the music or launching certain apps?
THANK YOU
No problem!
So how do you feel about it now. I’m between this unit and the Boss version of the same. I want to use the Apple CarPlay so I’m not as worried about apps but the torque app is interesting. Has it held up to time? I’m putting in my avalanche z71 so I was curious what your experience has been at this point. Also was there an option to install an external mic and how is the call quality on blue tooth?
Yes, there is an external mic option. You can watch our 2004 Silverado install guide. It worked really well with no issues. We have since switch to the S8 which is also really nice and are testing that out.
I have a JL 4 channel going to my components and a sound cubed mono tied to a 10" sub. I cannot tune the sound to sound good. Took out a kenwood that sounded amazing. Any tips for getting this to sound right?
Im having issues getting the firmware, anyone have it in the cloud ?
Same, are you trying to download from a mac to sd?
Same here
Did I miss it, or did you never mention how much RAM and ROM this unit has available...?
That's one of the major basic specs on any Android device, along with the processor details.
I think you put a lot of effort into this review, so its a thumbs up and much thanks! But its kind of incomplete without basic specs? Just found it in the text under the video...
To delete stations! Swipe em up....
Awesome feedback! What year is your Silverado and did it have the Bose system with the amp? I have an 05 Tahoe with Bose and it's been a nightmare trying to find a unit like this that'll easily work with it (I need 4 channel pre Amp)
It is a 2004 with the base system. Bose may require an additional module to work.
@@TheSundaeDrive much appreciated
mine has a very bad WIFI. its hard to connect it even to a close wifi. and it takes forever to download offline google maps
That sounds like a faulty antenna. Ours has been very good.
When u use the volume buttons are u able to mess with the volume bar on the screen as well?
Hello, what do you think about the Pioneer DMH-1500NEX? I'm going to buy the Pioneer or the ATOTO A6 Pro without gesture controls
Haven't been able to find subwoofer settings as in bass up or down am I just missing it somewhere ? I have a s8 atoto
Thanks
Can you install the GPS Nav app called "Here" and download the free map and turn-by-turn voice on this unit? I wonder how it works since I am considering moving the nav feature to the bigger screen but not sure I want to buy the android auto dongle.
Does this have Steering Wheel Control Learning? I'd hate to have to use a ASWC-1 harness again.
A car stereo needs a knob. You can have all the fancy touchscreen you want but still needs a knob.
Having a nob is always nice for that tactile feel
its well equipped but man it gets slow when you have more than one app open
I just installed the S8 standard in my car, so of course I had to go with the recommended dash cam. I have a 128GB card in the dash cam and also one in the stereo, but the dash cam does not save video to either. When I load the DVR apk, it looks like it's just loading instead of already being on. And then when I hit the record button, the little red icon pops up for a second then goes back to the folder icon with the slash through it. Any help would be appreciated.
My physical buttons have failed after about 2 years. I have had tons of problems with mine, so I'm pretty much ready to chuck it at this point.
That stinks 😔 ours has still held up without issue but there are always bad units I'm sure. Most electronics these days aren't designed to last for more than a few years sadly.
@@TheSundaeDrive I'm hesitant to buy another ATOTO unit, but there doesn't seem to be something else I like with the same options. Can you tell me if this version allows you to save more than one equalizer setting?
@@zeketaney5567 we just updated to the s8 version which seems to be more responsive with a nicer display and can come with built in carplay etc. I would probably suggest going with the newer model. We haven't had a chance to do a long term review on it yet but it was plug and play with the A6 wiring harness in our truck.
@@TheSundaeDrive I just ordered a S8 Standard, couldn't find the Premium one with the 7" display. Hopefully I will have a little better experience this time.
I hope you do! Ours have all worked well at least. Hope yours does too
Hi i can use the obd with my wifi app DashCmd at the same time connected on my iPhone wifi geting music on deezer like samples?
Have you had any problems with the update? I wish I could just connect it to the wifi and download it directly, I did the whole thing, copy the zip file on a SD card and inserted it in the unit but didn’t do anything, it suppose to launch it automatically, but mine didn’t do anything, bad luck I guess. Great review tho, one of the reasons I decided to buy this unit.
It will prompt you to format the memory card. Format it from the A6. Then take the memory card back to your laptop copy the update. Then take it back to your A6 insert it. The update prompt will pop up in the middle of the screen
Hi great video! Can you download Spotify songs in extreme quality to listen to offline?
Download songs into the unit so no phone needed?
Yes, if you have spotify premium you can download songs to it. It also has expandable memory. Get the model with physical buttons though if you're still questioning buying one.
@@carsondcutler Wich one is that?
I have the Corehan CS-JD-AN-03 android double din that I got from amazon. Is there a way to upgrade the android version???? Thanks in advance!
After the November update, the subwoofer output doesn't work. Only if I open mega bass settings will it come back on
Ok, good to know! So it only works in a single mode now but not for normal playing? I don't have a sub so haven't played around with it
Dopo l'aggiornamento di novembre non mi funziona l'uscita del subwoofer. Solo se apro impostazioni audio bassi mega si riattiva
It appears that you can swipe your preset stations up to delete them
Correct
Can you tap into the reverse camera you already have on your truck?
It may require an additional module depending on the vehicle but you should be able to get it to work.
Great review, thanks! Quick question. I'm thinking of switching out my Pioneer W4500NEX to this unit. My biggest concern is wireless Android auto, sound quality powering my subs with no issues. For instance, if I'm listening to the radio and I turn the vehicle off... When the unit powers up do I need to do anything for the radio to come back on or does it play from it's last source. Now if you're bluetoothed I understand you need to reconnect. Thanks again.
Shouldn't need to reconnect even with bluetooth, as far as quality it concerned it is really fantastic, far better than most name brand headunits in the $500 range. With this A6 pro being $250 it's a steal. There's so many great features in this and honestly although it's not a super well know name brand, imo it wipes the floor with the competition and is far better than most headunits at the $500-$650 price range.
Wireless Carplay/Android Auto wireless adapter can be purchased as well from Atoto amazon seller store, I believe it's like $80 last time I checked. Hope this helped

So you have to buy an adapter for Android auto? I thought you could just plug your charger to the staereo deck and your good to go? But you have to buy adapter?
I guess that was the case for this older version. You def don't need adapter for the current versions.
Question! Does this support side cameras?
I appreciate this video, thank you. Just ordered. Quick question, have there been any firmware updates that you have applied?
no updates
The DVR app doesn't seem to record map data with the dash cam videos. Has anybody found a replacement that works with ATOTO?
Which version doesn't have the gesture controls?
Any one else have an issue with internal or external mic? Its so quiet and cannot find out how to increase gain or turn off noise cancelling (if thats the issue as it seems the first word I say is ok then rest of call is quieter, even when right next to mic its only slightly better.) Thanks!
Have you guys tried the standard version? right now is about 170$ (The new version with buttons on the left) but I was wondering if it there is a noticeable different between the PRO because Hardware wise it has 1GB of ram less than the pro (that is has 2GB). And its only 16GB of internal storage (Which is not a problem since you can plug an SD card)
We have not personally used the standard version so I am not sure how well it works in comparison
Does this have a stand alone gps. I want to go offroad and need that feature.
Yea this has a GPS antenna. You can use it with an offline map app
Has anyone been able to get Google Assistant to work? So you can have it make phone calls, navigate etc?
Ever find an answer? Also do you ir anyone else know if it will work with existing steering wheel controls. Meaning ones from factory unit?
No..
It doesn't work with Hi Google but it does if you press the button to speak into it
How is it holding up today now that it’s another year later?
Still working great! We just updated to the s8 pro tho about a few months ago
@@TheSundaeDrive will I be able to install a atoto in a Hummer h3
I having a problem getting my iphone contacts to show up on the unit. It connects fine but just wont upload the contacts. have tried all sorts of things but hope you can help. Oh BTW it works fine with android phones.
did you ever figure this out?
how is the call quality for the mic?
Not terrible but not great.
I've always heard to stay away from these style of head units with the capacitive touch buttons instead of physical click buttons. Apparently the capacitive touch buttons glitch out and stop working rather easily.
This has both physical and touch buttons and we haven't had any issues in well over a year since installing.
@@TheSundaeDrive You have physical buttons on the unit and the screen is a touch screen. The capacitive touch you'll see on similar head units where we would have click buttons.
I've installed the same head unit in my Passat.
Will this headunit work with todays newest iOS??
Hi how’s everybody doing today I just installed an 86 performance in my Ford I hooked up the ignition line the continuous 12 V line and apparently the dimmer control with the headlights and it’s draining my battery when the car is off does anybody have a suggestion out there thanks
Anyway to get 4g or LTE on it? also, how did you download Netflix, did you have to use an older version?
Use hotspot
So this has 4v preamp outputs?
Hi does it decode flac files?
Delete presets by swiping a preset up or down I think
Thanks!
Does it have DAB radio?
My touchscreen stopped responding, what could be the problem?
Someone help please
Mine quit responding too.. it worked twice after I reset it but now the reset doesn't help...
That stinks :( sorry to hear that. We've been fortunate and ours has kept up without any issues. Hope yours decided to work again for you
Delete the station you have to use your two fingers and drag up on the station
Thanks!
Does this have satellite GPS nav? Or is it data/offline maps from apps only?
This has a gps receiver and maps can be downloaded to the unit
How do you tether your phone? Don’t you have to pay extra for that iPhone feature?
+dutch971 I believe tethering does not cost extra for some cell providers like Verizon or T-Mobile. Not sure about AT&T
Can you do a video running a chromecast or video game console to the back of the Atoto?
Haven't tried doing that. Maybe someone watching has tho!
@@TheSundaeDrive would be good click bait for the channel :-). My screen arrived with a scratch today from ebay unfortunately.
Lol that is true! There isn't an hdmi port at the back tho so you would need an interface of some sort. Good idea tho! That stinks about the screen :(
I wouldnt get the gesture control but since they've gotten rid of the physical buttons I'm considering it. So are you saying the volume control is on the touchscreen?
Did they change the specs? Cus I was just on amaxpn and its saying the pre amp Volatage is now 2v instead of 4v
+Dangerous Fandango looks like you’re right, seems to be 2v pre-amp output now. Thought mine was 4v but having a hard time confirming that now. Looks like you’d be stuck with 2v which isn’t the end of the world I guess. Just gotta turn to the amp gain
A6Y2721PR says 4v out on amazon.ca
What is a good flip down that can coincide with this unit
Not sure what you mean? Flip down display?
i have the same radio but when i leave my house to go to work i lose connection on wifi dont get me wrong i love the radio but i dont wanna listen to the radio every time i wanna listen to spotify or pandora or sirusxm can anyone help me out how i can keep wifi connected with out loseing connection
Are you using a hotspot from your phone?
@@TheSundaeDrive yea but when i try to used hotspot or teathering its telling me to get att data plan or something but i have unlimited data and everything i dont no what could be wrong
That sounds like an issue with your carrier if your phone is giving an error.
i dont like it. a lot of hidden menus. cannot get apple car play to work. no tech support. very quirky. nav does not work when no wifi even with downloaded maps. don’t know why people like this.
I think it works well for certain roles but for others it does not. We are testing their new s8 which has built in car play and a lot of other upgrades.
Shiiiiiit mine won't do internet over Bluetooth, it keeps closing out
If on Iphone turn on personal hotspot, dont need to connect that way but that enables bluetooth tethering
Does it work with google assistant? Does it work with factory steering wheel controls?
You can make this work with steering wheel controls by buying an additional unit like the PAC steering wheel interface. It depends on your vehicle though What do you have?
I have a 2009 scion xb
+blade5054 doesn’t work well with google assistant so I wouldn’t recommend that unless you are using your phone’s google assistant via android auto. It will work with factory steering wheel controls but you need to purchase an extra module from a company such as PAC audio. They make the converter from your factory controls to the headunit input
wait could i connect a blutooth controller an play games of the play store?!
Not sure!? But I like the idea. Maybe we can give that a try! If you try it out let us know if it works tho!
Guys, anyone know where you would find the dash kit that would fit the screen?
We have gotten all of our kits from amazon
Where can I find the Atoto a6 pro update ?
Video update or product? It worked great up until we swapped for the s8. No issues at all with it. We most likely will be installing it into another vehicle.
@@TheSundaeDrive update for the A6 pro. I'm running Android 6.0 Atoto Aice 9.4
I have had this for about two years. I see that you have this link in description:
ATOTO Smartlink (Enables Android Auto and Apple Car Play). I never found that available when I installed, so don't have it. Yanking it all out and putting that in is an option I guess, but isn't that what you want OUT OF THE BOX? This thing is built on an old android version, and will not run Android Auto or Car Play. That's A WARNING for people looking at this. For me, this thing is a glorified stereo. The screen buttons are TINY, and often in the verrrryyy corner (maddening) , and the screen itself is not very good at responding to touch. I have to press, press, press, nothing... fuck.. press again...
I'm NOT very impressed with my Atoto A6 Pro. I end up using my phone for maps, because this thing is just a pain in the ass. It's a great stereo, except, to get things on and off, it has to format the card the old way. SO, I keep replacing cards because the formatting doesn't last. From my mac, to transfer my music, and then to the atoto, and back a few times, and the card is dust - unreadable. I don't even have a card in it now, cuz I got tired of doing that. I'm sure this guy has had a great experience with his, but I definitely have not. Glorified Stereo that runs a sub. Basically that's it.
Doesnt it lag with opening 3rd party apps like Google maps?
In my experience, Google Maps opens pretty fast and doesn’t run poorly. I’m using Spotify right now and that also loads and runs good
Hey just to say... You can download google maps offline to run areas. You have 32gb of rom, plenty of room to download a City or State. Then turn hotspot off.
What’s an apk to be able to play RUclips in the background?
Supposedly an apk called NewPipe will work. Check it out on github.com/TeamNewPipe/NewPipe
I’ll try it on my S8 as well
DSP?
Digital signal processing.
Can u upgrade to Android 10 by any chance? What about rooting the unit ? Can anyone comment?
Only Android 6.0 max on these. If they work, leave them, update sometimes break things
Anyone know if the atoto a6y2710s has adjustable equalizer
It does. Not very good, but it does the trick
Will this fit in a bmw
What bmw?
is this compatible with a 4g dongle?
We have not tried it yet but maybe someone else will chime in!
