I installed my Chigee AIO5 lite yesterday and instantly very impressed. I did consider the alternatives like the Carpuride but the price difference delivers BIG quality difference. Like comparing an iPhone to a $189 phone from the high-street. The whizz wheel connected instantly, although I’m looking forward to a bit more functionality with this in future upgrades. The cameras don’t appear as nicely made as my K3, but the image quality is just as good. Chigee are also very active on the socials and very quick to answer questions.

I have recently reviewed Carpuride, Ottocast, CarABC, Atoto and the new Chigee AIO 5 Play which is the new model being released is what they sent me. The Chigee is far superior, interface is smoother, no lagging, no freezing. The packaging says it all, the other brands are coming in boxes without the company name on suggesting they are from the same factory. The Chigee is amazing, faultless and you can feel the difference in its high quality. Love it.

And I did built in the K3 on my GS the best way ever (rear reflector) so I would like to keep it that way.

Just got the new CHIGEE Play in today with their first pre-order batch. Very nice unit so far and better quality compared to the Carpuride 7" that I tried out that was to large for my mounting location. I was just going to get the 5" Carpuride but then saw the Chigee Play and decided to give it a shot. Since it might help someone else I used Chigee's "BMW Loseless (MFP0059)" to mount the Chigee to my Rottweiler Performance GPS mount on my 22+ KTM Super Adventure. This mount uses an AMPs style pattern and it worked fine other than the bolts being to long. One thing to note. I doubt it would work with the screw in AMPS style mounts. I was looking at my Perunmoto mount on my other bike and doubt it would work for that unless I drilled out the holes.

With the AIO-5 Play already launched now and the upcoming BMW edition, there are no cameras or sensor etc... and by far it a way better quality and interface compared to Carpuride. Some riders complained on no 7" with Chigee. On my 1250GS I prefer the 5" on the Nav Cradle so it won't hide any of the TFT like it was the case with the Carpuride 7" when I installed it. Chigee really nailed it. In my humble opinion

This is an interesting looking system, but I really don’t like systems that are dependent on my phone. I ride many places where cell service is sketchy which means I have to always remember to download maps to my phone for a given area before entering it. I also don’t like having to keep my phone plugged in all day and it runs down fast when driving devices like this. I prefer to distribute functions across specialized devices. Thankfully, I’ve had good luck with my BMW Nav 5 which is still going strong after 10 years or so. I like being able to put my iPhone in my holster and not have to plug it in and have my GPS in the cradle and powered from the bike. And this way if the phone fails, I can still navigate and find gas and hotels. Similarly, if the GPS fails, I still have my phone as backup as long as I have cell coverage. If I have only the phone for everything, if it fails, I’m out of luck. If only this device had an internal GPS and at least a basic map database…

Surely they can make an adaptor cable that does that direct?
@ABIKETHING5 ай бұрын
When you buy the plug from us we include a little instruction card. The other two wires we don’t use are specifically for the bmw cradle. You see all the contacts on the cradle? That’s not on the Chigee lite as it’s NOT a bmw product. It’s designed to work on any motorbike. We’re just conveniently using one of the wires on that cradle plug to access a switched live. Power has to come direct from the battery. However, a bmw edition is coming soon for the Play version but note this can’t be used on any other motorbike unless it’s a bmw with the same cradle fitment. Back to the Lite version and the Bluetooth canbus remote is required to send instruction to the Chigee lite. Your wheel is on the canbus. Move it, scroll it and your canbus remote hears this. Then sends out signals via Bluetooth to the chiggy system.

I was keen to by the Chigee and the reason I didn't was that I didn't want to pay more than 500 for things I don't have any interest in...

No. U can still toggle between tft and nav

Really enjoyed the video, The only thing I still cant find any information on is the the Chigee says it will only connects to ONE headset, so does that mean that your passenger misses out on the music? That seems like big miss to me when a lot of use travel TWO up, so both headset need to be connect.
@NickElliottuk6 ай бұрын
I think the music comes from your phone still? The Chigee just acts a controller. So your phone is connected to both this unit and your helmet/communicator.

Thanks for details information about Chigee AIO 5 Lite. I'm having simple 2 queries as 1. Did this device Maps will work as Garmin GPS without phone connected and another things is that BSD of this device will cover how many metre distance from vehicle/bike as we knew that INNOVV Third Eyes working quit well. Thanks

Yes it does. I’m sure I mention that in the video. We charge £199 to install this on its own or £80 if it’s in addition to a light and ezcan bundle at the same time.

Can this system be fitted to a BMW 1250 RT 2019 using the BMW connections used by Garmin 5 or 6 navigation unit. I do not require the TPMS or BSM just the basic unit and hopefully using the wonder wheel. Is this possible or do I have to purchase the complete system?. Look forward to your reply. Professional video as usual , Thank you.
@garyogden58736 ай бұрын
Hi, I picked up my 1250RT in March and already I find the connected app a pain and as I can't get my iPhone in the charging port (its too big) I burn through the battery. I want a bracket to sit the chigoe above the 7.5 TFT

They’re different animals. I’m videoing content for the Ci pad atm. The CI is great but for different reasons. What the CI doesn’t have is screen mirroring so you cant do apple car play. It’s basically one big phone which is even more dedicated than the Chigee but it’s for the real adventurer who doesn’t mind their tech owning them as opposed to us owning our tech.

Hey Steve I’m looking at buying one but I’ve been told the AIO 5 PLAYis only for your speed? So if I was in the middle of nowhere and had decided to plan a route with no phone signal I’d be buggered? I presumed this GPS works the same as satnav??? Bit confused Thanks

If I purchase it through you and get the 3 pin adaptor you sell. Which of the 3 yellow wires spliced into the Chigee yellow wire ? Also if I'm using a Denali CanSmart with the switched power adaptor would be easier if I sliced into the Chigee yellow wire with that instead ?

I pre-ordered one and found that Voice Control is NOT supported yet with Android Auto using a bluetooth headset... (Chigee says they are working on it...) Why do all reviewers only focu on testing Apple Carplay !!!!)
@ABIKETHING3 ай бұрын
We’re too busy here to do reviews. I personally am an Apple CarPlay man. Tom, who works here is an android user and he has the play device on his husky but like me he doesn’t use voice control for controlling his device. I have been hearing some limitations about android auto. Not just with this device but with CarPlay devices in general.
