Something like this would make a good smart home in-wall display. With decent in-wall speakers and the backup camera connected to a camera covering your front door, it would be better than the usual mounting an android tablet to your wall.

[@EvolutionArtsllc]

Picking a android headunit really depends on your expectations & use. If your going to interact with it a lot and utilize many of the features spending the extra money is definitely worth it. For me my purpose was bluetooth, backup camera and the ability to listen to my music collection from a usb drive. I never really connect it to the internet, android auto works fine w/ pandora & maps. It is 1gb ram and 16gb storage which I would not recommend but again for me its a media player w/ the media built it so the specs aren't an issue.

@@westsenkovec for my head unit which is a few years old now the sound is decent, a little low, I wouldn't say amazing.

@@kaz2986 If you can deal with some lag from time to time. Honestly for me GPS has worked fine natively from the head unit and as for spotify your best option would be to play the audio via bluetooth from your phone. To directly answer your question, those specs should be just fine for what your using it for.

[@zadtheinhaler]

It's posts like this that strengthen my resolve to get an ITX-compatible double-DIN chassis to put a Seeed Odyssey or similar into. You can get adapters that allow the computer to read CANBUS messages from steering wheel controls, a great selection of GPS pucks to choose from, and built-in wireless which won't be restricted to 2.5G speeds. Couple that with BT for mini keyboards with touchpads, and that's a winning combo. Thanks for the insightful and well-rounded video, always a treat!

[@bepbep7418]

Correct if you have a stock sound system these are.... Ok at best. If on the other hand you have a factory upgraded sound system with amps and subs, or even worse a custom setup, these typically output a trash signal for your amps, which in turn boost the already garbage signal to your nice/expensive woofers/tweeters. Tablet functionally they're fine. It's the AUDIO side why it's $150 headunit and not $400-$500 headunit.

The whole installation probably set me back almost $1,000. But I'm using the factory XM antenna, A/C, GPS, backup camera, steering wheel controls, and microphone! Not a lot of installs go through the trouble of rewiring in or buying adapters to do that! I've also got HDMI to RCA to cast my phone or gaming device to the head unit, if I want through the glove box.

[@graphicsgod]

Next step is to get an aftermarket amp (to replace the factory one) and sub to give it more of a punch in sound! I mean it sounds really good now, but that little extra goes a long way..

[@sirseriously]

I'd be interested to see how this holds up more long term. That's always my fear with these products and the heat I have in my state. Car manufacturers spend hundreds of thousands testing internal electronics and screens to be sure they can hold up to the extremes of vehicle vibration/heat and I have a feeling these manufacturers do not. Even with the investment, some OEMs have faults like the Tesla screen issue or bmw/Lexus screen issues come to mind in recent history.

[@UberStarFkr]

Well for what it's worth, I've had an even older Android radio from out of China I installed into my blazer four years ago and it worked surprisingly well in the high humid heat of KY. In winter though when it got really cold, around 20 degrees or lower the screen capacitive touch was very finicky until the heater got temps back up. But the apps themselves worked just fine. I finally updated the radio simply because the only real downfall to many of these is getting updates on these is almost non existent unless you get one from a very well known company that is known to support their android radios with software/firmware updates and they usually cost a bit more for it. I don't think car manufacturers themselves are testing it like you say unless they are making the devices in house. But whoever the manufacturer is for the device before it reaches the car manufacturer indeed has prior and I can almost guarantee that most of your factory radios is made of parts from China too. 🤷

[@cmac3530]

If you can get a double-din dash panel I used a KKmoon K5980 in my old Jeep and Android Auto worked wonders. The only thing to be aware of is the length of the USB cable; The stock cable from the head unit is about 6 feet, which is great if you need it to reach the side of the dash but if you're putting it closer I would suggest shortening the cable if you can, or limit the amount of extensions/adapters used. I had my stock cable plugged into a short 6-inch panel mount extension so it would look clean. But, that limited me to only being able to use USB cables 12" or under. It ended up not being a problem for me as there was a pocket to store my phone right there, but it is something to be aware of.

[@coccoborg]

I got this exact one broken for 20€, it needed a new amplifier chip for 5 and fixing a few cables.

For GPS, it seems you need a wireless connection to download your current location. Other than for a radio, for me it is best to put the smart phone screen on the dash, especially for GPS. I used it in my 1960's cars because standard DIN radios won't fit without hacking a big hole in the metal dash. This box is thin enough to not stick out far from the dash and required not molesting the dash (just ran bolts thru the radio knob cutouts to secure the mounting plates.

Loved the Review. But Still Prefer the Single Din Stereos

[@UberStarFkr]

I suppose depends on the vehicle for my preference. Though I do like double din when it comes to these style radios. My Blazer had the odd craptastic 1.5 din which I converted to a proper double din.

[@UberStarFkr]

@@DailyCorvid I'm only good if the opportunity exists lol. For the Blazer it's odd. They came factory with 1.5 din radios so you had to have an adapter to replace a 1din radio in. But the space for the radio itself is actually closer to 2din. The issue in my case was there is a plastic piece that is used as a support for the back of the factory radio that had to be cut down and just a few cm cut around the edges. This is with the trim taken off mind you. The trim piece though that goes over the radio though is 1.5din. The trick to that? Find the same color trim from a Bravada lol. They essentially were the step child of the Blazer using a lot of the same parts and color interiors except they came factory with 2din radios meaning their trim that also fit Blazers, also gave Blazer the proper 2din factory look. I wouldn't say I'm a professional or anything, far from it. I just like to tinker with things and if I can make something work and have it look like its supposed to be there, I'll do it 😊. Edit to add further reply: And indeed these radios could be used in different ways like you suggest for a bathroom wall. Simply need a 12V DC power source which wouldn't be hard at all to obtain.

I've used a redmi 9 C to a USB dock to a topping AD-10 and the sound quality and of course everything else is just dead silence there's literally no Distortion from the topping DAC and it's just over the top wonderful! an outboard DSP that takes USB input is simply the way to go if you are using Amazon HD. Download all the songs from Amazon to a SD Card, and its Heaven! the most expensive part of your system is usually the speakers the installation and of course the DSP but the amplification part that's as cheap as peanuts as you can get a great performance dual amplifier for less than $109 and it has the specs that literally trounces on just about everything out there on the market.

Good. I was looking at this to replace my old cd player. Guess I'll keep looking.

[@kennethr.rosssr.2305]

On that 10" stereo, can you combine a DVD\CD player to it as another way of watching movies?

[@iraneman1668]

Great video for few years back. But for today and End 2024, what is your recommended large screen (Hopefully Tesla looking or better) replacement entertainment center for a double din car?

[@garystinten9339]

Would love to see a side by side comparison between ownice k7 and t'eyes CC3 in a unit vs match..

[@iiTzGyln]

Does this connect to my car speaker? Or does audio come out of the screen

[@JTLeyva]

Car speakers

[@dominicsierakowski6755]

Actually looking for install video. But honestly great video very detailed. If you like electronics it's worth the watch. Wish I watched this before I bought it lol.

[@dominicsierakowski6755]

If your building a high quality sound system this radio might work. But I would spend a lil more lettuce on a better one

[@mobiletechsolutions9183]

I have the same head unit and it came with 2 usb cables I have both plugged in and only one works at a time is there a way around that

[@preston5947]

Been waiting for this lol

[@longbeachcalifornia847]

I don’t know if I would ever buy that type a double den radio because they said it’s very slow and you have to run off your Wi-Fi or your cell phone for a hotspot I don’t know

[@Pickle312]

Really depends on which android headunit you get. There are higher spec models that I bet would perform just fine

[@jahmez4791]

100% would watch more head unit videos, curious how much or little you could spend to get an actually legit emulation setup for your car.

[@jaycalibre609]

Yes definitely me too!

[@Ty5oN101]

Never knew you we a car guy. Would love to see what you have.

[@gibsonhax]

The wavelink the wifi runs in wont determine speed 5ghz va 2.4 unless the area you're in is flooded with 2.4 devices. All it does is decrease static similar to when 2 radio starions are very close in number to each other and you get interference

[@Josho922]

where could i find on of these 12 volt 3 amp power supply to test mine actually works whilst i wait for the correct harness unit to come ?

[@DJV94022]

I wonder if you can load up tuning screens to see what ypur working witj when tuning

[@fabianelliott96]

I've heard the 4gb units are pretty fast and was recommended to never buy the 2gb. The ones I've seen seem alot better than this, including the display setup and its abilities. Not saying they are top notch, but not as bad as this

[@goclunker]

I have a 8 gb unit. It never lags. Only disappointment: it can’t emulate gran tourismo 3 and 4 without lag. Most ps2 games work perfect. I play ps2 and netflix when i am parked lol. Interface never lags and neither do any apps

[@martinduran6067]

Hi, do you know how to mirror an iPhone I’ve tried but can’t figure out how to. Thanks

[@RWL2012]

I remember reading something about these that said "you can tell it when your birthday is but you can't properly adjust the sound settings"

[@AndrewStrydomBRP]

I have a decent 9in version one of these with higher end specs in my car, it works great. Cheap chinese android anything will always be junk, but spend a little more and you can get something decent.

[@LyRaLex]

I can count the stick/dead pixel from here on my 27" monitor without going Fullscreen...

[@00semperfidelis00]

5:10 the equalizer is only this?? or you can get more audio's option??

[@CESAR_H_ARIAS]

+1 on the Impreza Project!!! is it a 4 door sedan or a 2 door?

[@mrbigvanlife7130]

I got one it’s great, came with reverse camera and DAB+ too and a canbus interface. I’d like to have seen a bit more focus on the relevance to a car and not the gaming as that’s not what these are about.

[@kokovhia4107]

Does the equalizer and balance fader works sir?

[@thetinkerer5300]

I built a head unit out of a rpi 4 using open auto. Fun project

[@notequi4825]

Potentially could you plug in an Apple car play adapter and it work ?
