Easily Add CarPlay To Any Car | Carpuride W901 (9 inch) Review

[@jgjg329]

This is one of the best, most well made, and thorough basic tech review videos I’ve ever seen. Holy crap bro, great job! And thank you for all of the info. I just bought one :)

[@Rawrkee]

Thanks bro! I'm lookin forward to making more videos just like this :D Enjoy your new head unit!

You have made the best video concerning this device that I've seen. After looking into more options, I decided to get a head unit installed in my Civic that would work best for me. I appreciate how you went through the settings and your explanation of the good and the bad. Great video.

[@garyb354]

I have a twenty year old Honda Civic ex and started looking at these type of products primarily because I wanted to add GPS navigation with a screen larger than my small iPhone 8. I have a 5 inch screen size Garmin GPS from a few years ago, but I found that the maps and places of interest were outdated right after the initial purchase and updating has not worked. I researched new models with larger screens and found the same criticisms in the reviews. Maps are outdated! I subsequently learned about these CarPlay add ons such as Carpuride and I have viewed many videos. Your video is probably the best and most complete explanation of the features that I have seen. You seemed to cover everything of interest to a consumer in a clear and concise manner. I chose to watch this video because of my interest in this product, so I have not viewed any of your other auto repair/mod videos. That is perhaps for a more specialized audience. But if you would create more video reviews of products that would be of interest to a wider audience, I am sure that your KZbin viewership would increase greatly. You seem like a natural for these presentations. I enjoyed watching.

[@Rawrkee]

Hey man, thank you for your kind and thoughtful comment. I've been struggling to find what works for me to become successful on KZbin and after reading your comment, I think you're absolutely right! I'm looking forward to doing more and creating the best possible review videos, thanks again for your kind words!

[@DuyNghiaTran-d4x]

Hi, Mine just ordered 2 weeks ago, has a wallpaper screen saver, so I cannot use to navigate more than 30 minutes, when the wallpaper screen is activated. How I can turn it off to be able to use to navigate for a long trip? Thanks

[@poncho1567]

Wow dude. Excellent review and there was no skipovers or fast forwards on my part. Value in each word. Looking forward to seeing the comparison reviews.

[@Rawrkee]

Awesome, I'm glad to hear the video was very useful :D

[@jberry1979]

How are phone calls with this? I can't find a single video on these that shows how phone calls work, and the quality of the built in microphone

[@Rawrkee]

I haven't tried using the built-in mic, I've always opted for using my air pods due to convenience . However, if you're interested in the mic quality, it would be safe to say that I recommend using an external mic such as a lapel mic. In my experience, the built-in mic on head units are meant for using voice commands but can also be used for phone calls which means the mic quality is only good enough to make the voice command feature work.

[@AngelsSKisses]

Do you have to turn it off and then on every time you get in the car, or will it turn off when the car turns off?

[@christostoumazou1166]

how is able to connect to car speaker if we dont have the port to connect it ???

[@Rawrkee]

You can use the FM Transmitter, set your radio to an unused station, and set the FM Transmitter to the same station and you'll get audio through there. If you car has bluetooth, you can get the newer model that has bluetooth kzbin.info/www/bejne/rpK0ooZ9ib6VpJI

[@xxtraniksterxx2391]

My car doesn’t have Bluetooth or aux. if I use the fm transmitter will I be listening to the radio or music from lets say Spotify? Also do I have to set it up everytime?

[@Rawrkee]

Hi, sorry for the super late response. Yes you can still listen to Spotify using Carplay or Androidauto with the FM Transmitter. No you don't have to manually setup the FM Transmitter each time, you simply toggle the FM Transmitter on/off.

[@MichaelGeneSullivan]

This looks great, but I have a question: I want to hook up a wireless back up camera on my truck, and I wondered if I could use this as the screen. The camera I’m looking at streams the camera to an iphone, so could I watch live video from my iPhone on this screen?

[@Rawrkee]

The only way you'll be able to cast your wiresless camera to this device is by using the Screen Mirror function but the video quality will look worse because the Screen Function uses wifi/bluetooth to cast your phone onto it. If you did screen mirror, you won't be able to use carplay

[@MichaelGeneSullivan]

Darn! I don't want to have to buy two systems for my truck, and I don't want to have to wire it. I have a lot of don't wants. Thanks for the response!@@Rawrkee

[@R0CK070]

For oem rear cam, will it use my RCA plug in that cam jack input?

[@Rawrkee]

You can try using a wire like this amzn.to/44RlseR the input for the Carpuride unit is a 2.5mm jack

[@JAYHAWKER-88]

Will the unit turn off when the car is shut off, or will I need to unplug it when I shut off my car?

I just picked this up on Cyber Monday for $70. It hasn't arrived yet, but based on what I'm seeing, it'll be well worth it.

Can you connect a reverse camera, and will it automatically turn on the reverse cam when the car is in reverse?

[@Rawrkee]

yes you can, I show how it works in this video: kzbin.info/www/bejne/lWSpo3lpj9l4l9k although it's a different product, it still has the same functionality

[@Asphaltracergamer]

Hands down the best carpuride review. Answered all my questions lol.

[@jeremiahkrauss2722]

I know you probably answered this question a million times and I’m sorry but how do I connect it to my car speakers (Pandora) if I do not have an aux spot in my car?

[@Rawrkee]

If you don't have an auxiliary cord, the FM transmitter will allow you to transmit music to your car speakers using your car's radio. Just set the radio to an unused station, and the Carpuride stereo to that same station and bam, you got music playing through your speakers. Not sure if you were also asking if you can use the Pandora app but if you were wondering, you can only use Pandora through Carplay or Android Auto

[@shoop4040]

the question I would like to know if you could connect this to a Bluetooth speaker instead of going through my lousy car steareo.

[@Rawrkee]

In my experience, no, I couldn’t connect to a Bluetooth speaker. Best alternative is using an aux cord to your BT speaker

[@Mrmop25]

Can you change tracks of the music on the car play with the buttons on the steering wheel?

[@alexcuevas5633]

I think since you used the screen mirroring on the airplay overview of the this video that's why you may not be able to have your iphone locked with video playing, try using the airplay feature in the app instead of screen mirroring. Overall great review of the product which is what a lot of people overlook :)

[@Skybar23]

If you want to mirror you phone via wifi, how can you use mobile data for other apps like google maps?

[@Rawrkee]

wireless iPhone screen mirror relies on Airplay and so the phone's cellular data will still work normally

[@aaronb7141]

Question, if I use fm transmitter can I still use Apple car play or does it cancel out

[@Rawrkee]

Sorry for the late response, the FM transmitter works for Carplay

“Considering that there are other head units that can do the same or more at a lower price”. Would you do a comparison video showing the other head units competing with this one?

so how's the audio when playing it through the FM station ? Is it horrible, good , or just barely tolerable?

[@Rawrkee]

I can’t say that it’s any better than other fm transmitters, you still get the subtle static noise in the background. My car has an aux port and so I don’t bother to use the fam transmitter

[@JordanJacobson]

Can i still use the aux on my Phone to play music while casting the screen to this? My phone has a quad dac so the quality is really good

Please helps me to show how to install and connect each steps. Thank you

at which step are you having trouble with the setup? The head unit itself is pretty simple to setup in your vehicle, the instructions provided can guide through that and how to setup your phone as well.

[@tomrichards1047]

Not sure if I missed this… What if I wanted to listen to the radio. Would that have to be through my phone, or do I just unplug the aux cord? Or was that on the carplay?

[@Rawrkee]

Yes, you would have to unplug your aux cord and use your car’s radio. The Carpuride unit will simply broadcast audio your radio

It’s cool but when you watch videos the audio isn’t synced properly

[@Rawrkee]

yeah, the latency is a little off. you can try going to settings, tap the wifi icon, and set the Wifi Channel to 2.4 ghz. It might help a little. or you can even try contacting Carpuride and see if there is a software update

I still have not been able to figure out how to get the audio to come out of my car speakers with the aux : it’s connected by still coming out of the display unit

Hi! I have a 2011 Infiniti m56. It doesn’t have aux, only Bluetooth. If I connect my iphone to this wirelessly, then can I connect the device to my car’s Bluetooth to use the car’s speakers?

[@Rawrkee]

no, this cannot connect to your car's bluetooth. What you want is the Pro version. You can check it out here carpuride.com/collections/carpuride-w901-pro?ref=4aahvv8e there are three options, you can get the unit itself or one pared with either the backup camera or steeringwheel control. To my knowledge, I think the only difference between the 9 inch and 9 inch Pro is the dual bluetooth feature.

Do you have a any preference over the 9” unit over the W103 unit? Or, have you reviewed the W103 yet?

[@Rawrkee]

I haven’t reviewed the w103 but I know it’s newer and uses a usb-c port to power on the device. I’ve seen a couple of reviews on it and I would say it’s the same thing as the Carpuride 9 inch, just shorter in height but with better hardware. If you don’t want a huge screen in your way, I think the w103 would be a better option

This would be great for a motorcycle if it can stream to a helmet comm system 👌🏼 It’s also great for a car, specially if you can’t or don’t want to fumble around with a stock head unit.

Then reboot your own phone and you will be able to reconnect.

Unfortunately no, this head unit will output audio through AUX, FM radio, and or the built-in speaker. Your best option is to use a dash kit specifically for your Odyssey. Get a Linux based stereo if you want something like this Carpuride head unit or an Android based stereo which will allow you to download any app from the Google Play Store. You can use this website to help you find the correct dash kit crutchfield.com

@@Rawrkee oh okay thanks that answers my questions

[@MrSeeeppp]

can it withstand a 40 degrees celcius heat?

[@Claudiu.Bolovan]

it might be your android's fault because on my Android Auto screen, the Maps has indeed a split screen function with the map on the left and Spotify + notifications on the right

[@Rawrkee]

Thats good to know! Are you also using the same head unit or do you have a different sized head unit?

[@gasolara2002]

​@@Rawrkee Google updated Android Auto late last month.

[@pen25]

they sent you the old model?

[@jozzerful2]

You just mentioned having the capability of mirroring your phone on the display that being said recent upload to Android phones to carplay and split screen so I can't understand why you can't just split the screen sideways on your phone and mirror it on their main display seems very strange that this cannot be done anyway you would probably get just as much if not in some cases more if you mounted a decent quality

[@mytube3197]

Android auto updated and now allows split screen

[@RationalCreed]

Great video - just to check.... I don't need my phone plugged in anywhere to use Carplay ?

[@Rawrkee]

Thanks, glad you enjoyed it! And nope, once you have the bluetooth connection set up, it'll automatically connect to your phone each time you turn on the device

[@RationalCreed]

@@Rawrkee does this model transmit using Bluetooth to your headunit also - i dont wanna use FM transmit and i dont have an aux connector , only USB sockets

[@wadealexander2429]

cAN YOU CONNECT THE DEVICE TO YOUR CAR WITH BLUETOOTH If your car has Bluetooth already? So i wouldn't have to use the aux cable or fm transmitter.

[@Rawrkee]

no, this unit does not connect to bluetooth and so you can only output audio through an auxiliary port, FM transmitter, or the built in speaker. However, I'm going to test out the Carpuride w103 which has Bluetooth 5.0. Not sure if that can connect to a bluetooth device, it might just allow you connect your wireless headphones or speaker. edit: sorry, I just realized that the Carpuride 9 inch is also bluetooth 5.0. I'm not aware of any products that can bluetooth to a car.

[@Rawrkee]

Hello, if you're still interested, they have a newer model that can bluetooth to your car. The W901 PRO

[@kimberlywilson3716]

When I turn my car on and the carpuride is booting up, it has the most awful static/white noise. Is there a way to stop this?

[@cornertankcorner]

Great review. I recently had to return the ATOTO P8 because it didn't have wired CarPlay and the stuttering wifi connection drove me crazy. How is the sound quality on this one?

[@Rawrkee]

The sound quality is what you can expect through a auxiliary cord BUT if you're talking about the FM Transmitter, someone has mentioned a frequency range that will provide the best audio quality "If your radio has 87.5 FM less statics and good sound rated 8 no Aux cord needed"

[@lzh3131]

@@RawrkeeThis why I read comments. People like you add great information. I’m going to give it a try😊

[@davemeadows6688]

How strong are the sticky pads? Do they hold the device well?

[@Rawrkee]

Super sticky, especially the suction cup. The head unit is very light and so yes, the sticky pads hold it very well. You can lower the headunit to a surface to reduce stress on the sticky pads as well if you want

[@My007Mojo]

How is the stability of the unit while driving? Plus love the channel bruh, keep up the great work.

[@Rawrkee]

With the head unit raised up, it doesn't shake at all or not enough for me to notice but I recommend resting the bottom of the screen on a surface so it'll be more stable. Sometimes when I tap the screen too hard, it can move unless I tighten up the adjustment knobs. And thanks man! I'm way behind on content 😆

[@yeethers]

i liked the review it was very informative. i would like to know what or if there are differences between the different models/sizes, is it literally just a size difference? The descriptions for products are very long lol

[@Rawrkee]

I've reviewed a few of their products. This video covers the W901. They have a newer version, the W901 PRO - which has bluetooth functionality and an upgraded built-in speaker. I've also reviewed the W103 - which is a rectangular shape. Very similar to this product, the W901. Its bluetooth 'capable' but not up to par with the W901 PRO. So if you want the latest model, the W901 PRO is the one to get

[@yeethers]

@@Rawrkee thanks

Nice work! - Great overview!

Autolink wired does not work with iphone

[@Rawrkee]

did you go into settings, and set iphone to iOSMirror?

[@Mhuff1995]

How would anyone rate the audio from the fm transmitter on the scale from 1-10?

[@Rawrkee]

I would say 5. Nothing amazing, it sounds like any other fm transmitter which will give some static noise. Auxiliary cord would be much better

[@nandyesc]

Dude …. Does anyone have a stand alone ,flatscreen head unit?!?! Like i don’t need another radio 📻 to use it I need THIS with rca outputs for my amps Does anyone make this with 6-rca’s? Front Rear Subs

[@Rawrkee]

Ok, so you want it to be separate from your current stereo, just like this Carpuride unit but you want RCA outputs?? That’ll be a lot of exposed wires but I can probably look around for you if that’s something your REALLY want

[@PawnshopmikeATL]

@@Rawrkee I have 1988 civic wagon , there is NO RADIO, I’d Love to have (1) flat screen dash mount (2) full rca’s out (3) Apple CarPlay?? I have iphone & Love to watch KZbin/Netflix

[@kntwing23]

can play ps 5 on the small screen? can use this as a 2nd monitor?

[@Rawrkee]

No, it doesn’t have video input, the only video input is a reverse camera. However there are other options but they’re not portable like this product

[@LayZboyChino]

If this worked with streaming apps it would be beyond amazing

[@Rawrkee]

they sell an AI box that makes is possible but that's another product you have to buy -_-
