Apple CarPlay and Android Auto for any car! Carpuride W707 test.

Thanks to Carpuride for sending this in exchange for a video
Model W707
It worked great travelling home. 3.5mm sounds better than FM as expected. I think I will use wired usb mostly as it keeps my phone charged.

Best video yet since pi series started. Thank you

[@kevinhughes9801]

Great vid ive wanted something like this thanks

[@BillyNoMates1974]

Good review. The screen and button layout is very similar to what Dacia supply with their car stereos

I've upgraded my 2000 Opel Omega with a 2DIN Pioneer (quite expensive) and I've bought an USB-C stand for my phone. It's possible to use Android Auto over Bluetooth or USB, and the sound quality on Spotify is way better over USB. That's something to take into account. Spotify premium running on the lossless USB connection has really good sound quality on high volume 🎶

[@Nobe_Oddy]

wow you sure weren't joking about it being snappy!!! it works WAY BETTER than the UPGRADED entertaibnment center in my Honda.... and that prolly cost WAY MORE!! Well if I need to bring a future car of mine into the modern age then I know exactly how to do it!!! GREAT STUFF!!! (too bad it doesn't have camera built-in :/ I'll have to check to see if they have one in a different model) That was something I was hoping you would have hooked up a camera into the portso we can see how that works tho... no matter, I'm pretty sure its just fine going by how well everything seems to run :)

The unit looks nice although I wonder how it would hold up in my home of Tucson, Arizona in the summer sun. I mainly have a pick-up truck that I use now-days that I use to drive local so I don't believe that this for me. On a side note: the 1st thing I thought when I saw your car trip is:"My God everyone's driving the wrong way.".....;)! Have a nice week!

It's been a while since I saw some cool things with cars. Tinkernut also other chans did andriod auto vids, but was complicated ....

[@Soarersan]

What's it like for phonecalls? Do they come through the FM Transmitter too?

[@mtbowl96]

I have the 10.3 inch version of this. Could this be synced with an android sbc with root access and allow me to play games on the monitor for my car? Lol obviously I can't drive and play snes at the same time but I have a lot of down time in my work truck and would like to have something to play with

You ought to do a collab video with Chops Garage who lives/works in your area :-)

[@el_semir]

how is it now? I wanted W708 for my Astra

[@leepspvideo]

Mine is great. I use it regularly mostly for podcasts with overcast

[@defcon1968]

Would Spotify work on this?

[@leepspvideo]

Im sure it does. I didn’t have it installed on my phone

[@zyghom]

quality music over FM transmitter is a joke of course. Otherwise very nice piece of equipment for the cars without the Apple or Google features.

[@leepspvideo]

It would be the last resort. I switched to 3.5mm audio on my way home.

[@parshvapatel8484]

@@leepspvideo Is it possible to have gpio on old smartphones

[@leepspvideo]

@@parshvapatel8484 it’s not something I have tried. It is a lot simpler with a Raspberry Pi

[@bakedturkey204]

@@leepspvideo how was sound quality????

[@leepspvideo]

@@bakedturkey204 the 3.5mm is the connection I use all the time. It sounds great, as long as you don’t push the screens audio output too high

[@DJGillman]

There customer service terrible. Bought the newest 7” and some accessories. It’s now been 5 days and no dispatch notification/email. Messaged them, advisor said they would look in to it. 2 days later still no contact. Now getting a refund through PayPal. Shocking customer service and also very amateur at when responding to messages. Looks like it was typed out by a ten year old.

[@leepspvideo]

Sorry to hear that. It’s unfortunate as the product is great. I used the sat nav the other day, it was very smooth

[@petefulwell3367]

they are rubbish save your money

[@leepspvideo]

I have been using it since this video. Mine is great
