Linkswell 15.6" XL T-Style Radio: First Demo

Demo of the new 15.6" GM XL in a 2015 Chevrolet Silverado. This is the only GM XL currently in the US and is a pre-production unit, but should accurately represent production models.
The new XL radio has a much larger 15.6" screen, Android 11, 8GB RAM and 128GB storage, along with the ability to add a SIM card to give the radio its own data plan.

Nice. I almost jumped on a gen 5, but figured these were coming.

[@user-ok8mz5pn2d]

Absolute game changer

[@corylango2120]

Is there an installation video for the GMC/Chevy? Its cool showimg the demo and all but I am going from a Gen 3 to this and all the plugs are notlining up.

[@dempseydoodles]

Does this support the trailering cameras equipped in the GMC’s/Chevy’s? (5-6 cameras). Also… does this come with a camera built in (for video calls)?

[@roberts3180]

Not with the f250 (you do not retain all factory camra functions even with the 360 adapter) but does what i need it to. I'm not sure about gmc.

[@wottenad]

This will not support the multi-cam Intellihaul system. It does not come with its own camera for video calling.

[@dempseydoodles]

@@wottenadI’m looking for something that “does is all” so to speak. There’s gotta be something that gives us the size AND all the functionality and capabilities without sacrificing any of our needed and wanted features 🤦🏽‍♂️

[@lmontano1]

That is a nice unit! Is the radio HD? How's the navigation? Did you have to buy a module for that?

[@adcmobile]

It is HD video resolution. It is not HD radio. It comes with Google Maps built in and it works great.

[@johnnypiper1717]

Looks awesome, so i have a 2020 ram 1500 crew i was looking at the xl linkswell. So you can watch netflix while truck is moving long as you use your wifi hotspot? I also have a loc using to get a signal for my sub amp. Since this linkswell has rca outputs would i jus leave my line out converter as is or would i need to use the rca outs on the linkswell? Does this xl have any problems freezing up or running slow after awhile? Would be awesome if you could run the video while driving

[@adcmobile]

You can definitely watch video while in motion. aIt would be cleaner and more adjustable using RCA outs.

[@user-bt6ud7we3h]

will it be compatible with the 2021 GMC sierra's, if not do you know when they will be making one for that year group?

[@mykeyehandy-gn2jn]

ya ive been waiting was to be in July any word

Nothing for 2019+ GM trucks and none on the horizon. :- (

[@AnthonyWilson-gi8sb]

I spoke to you last week, I'm from Florida nice job on the video, I still don't know which carrier to get the sim card from

[@roberts3180]

Unfortunately only t-mobile. It's locked to there network after weeks of digging.

[@AnthonyWilson-gi8sb]

@roberts3180 I called u back after I seen your video and the only thing I didn't do was press that reset but you told me about near the volume button and the sim card worked

[@ronniefranklin1952]

does this unit need 3.5 aux pigtail plugged in to make audio work for apps or any internet?

[@adcmobile]

No - it does audio just by running the app - nothing else is required.

[@mcm563]

MCM here I want one for my 2019 Silverado truck. Please let me know when when I can buy 15.6 GM XL !

If it's a 2500/3500, it will work and it's in stock: www.adcmobile.com/product/xl-t-style-radio-for-2014-19-gm-trucks/

[@ronmeinhardt1336]

Can you update android to the newest version when they come out? And when playing music is it stereo or mono, does it sound better then the factory radio?

[@dexdahammer7318]

Does this unit use the factory mic or aftermarket mic? These android tablet radios normally use an aftermarket mic that comes with the unit and anytime you are on the phone using CarPlay people complain about you sounding like your under water.

[@adcmobile]

It uses an aftermarket mic that is supplied with it. If you install it where we recommend (near the rearview mirror, zip-tied to the harness and not clipped to the headliner) it sounds as good or better than the factory mic. Can't use the factory mic because that stays connected to OnStar.

[@michaelp4383]

The after market mic does not work well for me. Is there a beter option I could buy?@@adcmobile

[@nola504boy1]

My unit didn’t come with Netflix. Also o can’t download Netflix from the play store smh.

What's the advantages on this over the autotech pro andriod 11

[@Will_Bx_NYC_718]

You do realize 2K res is 2560x1440p which is much higher resolution than 1080p

[@CheekRunner]

When are y’all making one that touches the ceiling

[@PositiveParks]

😂

[@sargenthp]

It's cool... BUT I have the Multi-Camera system from you with front, both sides, cargo, and trailer reverse cameras... How do I integrate that??

[@sargenthp]

Looks like there's a 4 video input switch that I could get. So... Could I connect the front camera to the front camera input, and then this 4 port switch to the right camera input (which would run the left, right, cargo, and trailer cams). Would I be able to override the rear camera and switch to the "right camera" input to run my cargo or trailer cams?

[@adcmobile]

You would actually connect output to the REAR camera input on the radio, then interrupt the rear camera trigger and wire that into the switcher.

[@sargenthp]

​@@adcmobileYeah... Figured that out with a different unit.

[@kelvingatewood2372]

How did you connect the HDMI module?

[@jonbaker5423]

So I just bought this screen and had installed. Furious that after yiu spend 2K they want $129 to buy an adaptor so you can add a HDMI in. I am upgrading from Linkswell Gen 4. Really upset that the cable wasn't included. Support from Linkswells response. I should have known better and I can return to my dealer. Geeez. That is the Support I get after 2 radios and tons of money? I will be returning

[@wallheadkdir]

​@jonbaker5423 yeah they are wrong for that. 2k is alot of money for this I get there's a bunch of technology but come o linkswell give us the pieces we need to get up an going

[@MrVishnu78]

Will these work in a 2015 Tahoe?

[@wottenad]

No - nothing for the Tahoe. :- (

How do we get the update for the xl for the f150 my head unit is glitchy

Just go to Settings>System>Upgrade and check for updates.

What’s the part number for the HDMI adapter? Mine came with a hdmi plug in the back. But won’t work.

[@nola504boy1]

Same

[@adcmobile]

It needs this module for HDMI input: www.adcmobile.com/product/hdmi-input-adapter-for-linkswell-h-model-t-style-radios/

[@wolf6801rw]

If your building a new unit why not add more memory or hard drive space then phoenix automotive if you wanna sell more products,you run the same specs except a bigger screen,not enough to want to make me go from phoenix to you guys,kinda a waste of time building this unit if you ask me,should have added 256gig or even 500 internal drive

In GM, those are on the switches to the bottom left/right of the screen - they don't change with the radio.

​@mike-le2xp right? I bought and am returning as many bugs and the linkswell techs are stumped. For 2k I expect better than finger pointing. Alpine is smaller but more stable. I need function over form

[@jonbaker5423]

​@@mike-le2xpcheck out 12:34 in his video. The widget that is supposed to show the truck angle for example shows the truck straight up. Clearly he isn't on a hill at almost 90 degrees. I found out tonight that those widgets for the vehicle are useless and probably not connected to the truck.

[@Reckless335]

This might be just me but I'm not a fan of that huge knob in the middle of the screen. Looks weird to me.

[@roberts3180]

Much better with functioning of the unit. I definitely prefer the knob.

[@Reckless335]

@@roberts3180 I'm not knocking the knob. I'm not a fan of the placement. They could have moved it completely below the screen rather than right thru the middle of it.

You guys need to stop making like 10 different units for 9 year old trucks and perhaps come out with 1 for the 19-22 GMs.

I think it's probably because those years were so notorious for having radio issues.
