XTRONS 14.9" Screen Upgrade Head Unit BMW F10 M5 Overview

[@ovelyshyn]

Oh, wow. I thought there’s no way a large screen like that can look nice on any car. But it does! Well done

[@MQPZLA]

What front facing camera is that? Super clean wanna install the same when I also get the new screen

[@trainingrevolution2031]

Nice review! What is the mount you are using to hold the iPhone on your dash?

[@joshtempleton3113]

How did you get the front camera to work? Mine is only letting me use the reverse camera

[@Toliani4]

This one looks just so so so good in f10 , perfect

[@johnfelipe5408]

great video - did you have any echo when you make a call using CarPlay ?

[@DestroyerFather]

Kick-ass 👍👍🔥🔥🔥🔥

[@Na4alnikKam4atki]

Thanks for video mate. Does the phone calls will work with original microphone or you need to install one?

[@supermario6129]

The unit has built in mic. Oem mic wont work

[@AlfisGarage]

Looks nice, though I mostly listen to FM radio, which I understand still works in the background?

[@jpizzle252]

Thanks for making the video!

[@BulletsGarage]

Ur welcome

[@isabel3harriet1]

​@BulletsGarage I'm sure then you tap the top corner to see the open apps if you hold down on one of them and drag it across you can have split screen

[@VariousDisc-qr1ug]

Looks nice . Can u show us how the bimmer link works on that screen ? Do we need obd 2 to read it ?

[@rustinotaylor207]

Does the factory reverse camera work

[@dmitrijsbeliks9090]

Hey dude, thanks for the video, very informative and I like you positive vibes :). Quick Question. I bought the same one, with 4ram tho. My seems to be a bit laggy, yours is just so smooth. any advice you can give to fix it?

[@atlfinest9588]

Which wires were the positive and negative for the backup camera?

[@Ritz360]

Hey, how do you connect the reverse camera to the yelow wire provided that says camera, i cant find the stock reverse camera lead to disconnect and plug into the new xtrons one?

[@guccipig2782]

It looks so good

[@sheldonpouchet4717]

Hi I purchased a Pemp system for my BMW, and when I use Apple CarPlay I am not able to hear the radio anymore, can you tell me if this occurs with this system. I would like to use CarPlay and play the Radio at the same time,

[@joshtempleton3113]

How did you connect the front camera to this unit?

[@jurAjPE]

Hi. I bought the same screen. BMW. I had a different one before and like you, do not need the aux cable. Can I ask two things: 1. The mic. Previously I did not have a full android, but only a car-play mirroring linux screen and did not need the mic, as it was using the phone. Is the mic supplied for the android part and all apart the car-play? And how do you invoke siri, i could do it with the speech button on the steering wheel, did you try that in car-play mode? 2. The harness has two black jacks, male female, i think I noticed in your video that you have them connected and taped. They say RCA in and RCA out. Or did you leave them disconnected? Thanks

[@supermario6129]

unit has built in mic, and i think externall can be installed. it will work both for android screen and carplay

[@jurAjPE]

@@supermario6129 hi. Thanks for the reply. In the mean time I figured it out. So the car settings give you a option for bluetooth switching. If on, as soon as you start using the bluetooth calls it auto switches to the supplied speaker and mic. So you can be in radio, or aux, whatever mode in the car and you can talk to people via the mic and speaker. You can actually hear a little relay click in the unit. Or if the BT switching is off, the CarPlay calls will go into the car’s stereo and not need for both the speaker and mic. But you need to be in AUX. This is now I have it and how I like it.

[@brianguerra7331]

Did you have the harmon kardon system?

[@prentiss86]

Is your front camera triggered automatically when putting your car in drive?

[@leon633a]

The group BMW service might not upgrades with you on monitor

[@lacihanzi7950]

Thanks for videó! Please Tell me Where did you connect the after market front camera

[@supermario6129]

This unit dont have front camera input for aftermarket

[@DarrellGilmore06]

I wonder how this would look in. My F32 435i

[@socommaster]

Hows the sound quality with the new unit and does it connect to the aux or factory bluetooth?

[@supermario6129]

sound goes either through aux or directly to the oem system. depending on your car

[@OB-ul8cm]

did you figure this out bro ? i can’t figure mine out

[@inkyoo8]

My bmw 2014 Alpina did not need the aux cable. It’s an NBT unit.

[@socommaster]

What phone mount do you have there?

[@producedbytrent]

It looks good to me

[@teknodogg]

all awesome except price...also does it uses Esim??

[@VinnyS2K]

What is the passcode for the setting option?

[@jaguarology6776]

Awesome video. Thanks for the review. Does this unit have sim card capability so that it can receive its own data instead of running off the phone?

[@KevinXique]

Yes, it does.

[@ItsZeydah]

This is a shot in the dark but did you sell your GAW diff mount? If not would you be open to selling it?

[@MoTz_50]

the sound can never be better via AUX than OEM via MOST. no matter how you set the equalizer, the quality always suffers from the transmission over AUX. I have tested 6 different Android devices and now I have Mr12Volt CarPlay MMI. There is nothing better than Mr12Volt if you already have the 10.25 screen. I would only prefer Android screen if you also want to upgrade the screen from the small 6.5 inch. Otherwise I prefer 10.25 and OEM audio over MOST. Mr12Volt can also retrofit rear and Front Camera. Works fine. Why would you install such a large screen? Netflix is ​​so rarely used in the car that it's simply not worth sacrificing good audio quality.

[@supermario6129]

Mr12Volt provides different device. nothing to do with android screen. It just brings carplay capabilities. I agree most is better than aux, but also, with Mr12Volt devices audio is transferred from phone wirelesly to the Mr12Volt device and then by most to the oem system. If i compare wireless vs aux - aux wins.

[@MoTz_50]

@ CarPlay Transfers by wifi Not BT. but that's beside the point. I don't need studio quality in the car. But Aux is just significantly worse and that bothers me personally. I know some people who prefer to use Android, but they have poor audio quality, but why? Of course, Android screens have other advantages, like video streaming via Netflix, YT, etc. But how often do people use that compared to music? Music is much more important to me in the car, and the quality of Android systems NEVER comes close to Mr12Volt as long as AUX is used. As I said, I've tested several systems in my BMW and none of them came anywhere close to MOST quality. I get in the car, CarPlay starts immediately in 5 seconds and the music plays. With Android, the long boot time alone is annoying. It takes at least 30-40 seconds for everything to be ready for use, and as soon as the car is turned off, the booting starts again from the beginning. ZLink is not well optimized and has lots of bugs, the display doesn't look good because it's too reflective. Even a matt film doesn't help because it reduces the quality of the display. But that's a matter of taste..

[@RealPStakks]

@@MoTz_50damm I was about to go get it 😂

[@MoTz_50]

@@RealPStakks then go ahead and try it if u want to :D I just wanted to share my opinion here because I have had experience with different systems and I was only satisfied with the OEM MOST Audio quality System. As I said, other systems also have other advantages and disadvantages. I know ppl they prefer KZbin or UEFA Video Streaming while driving instead of MOST Audio quality. The quality of AUX is not that bad but even worse than MOST.

[@garrettgrant4796]

Just ordered one, are you still enjoying it? Any issues yet?

[@garrettgrant4796]

Just installed mine but I'm having some audio issues kinda? Trying to do android auto but if I try and adjust the volume it goes silent and I have to go through auxiliary from the car again. How do you have this set up for you?
