Hey mate, I'm looking at purchasing a 7012B for one of my older vehicles and this video was exactly what I was looking for. It goes over all the features and some pros/cons of real-world usage. Thanks for uploading this!
@divineoracle48098 ай бұрын
I just got one of these 7018B head units, it actually works really well! I got mine with a back up camera included for 35$ on eBay. One thing about these, the interfaces vary from vendor to vendor. None of which are bad, but it's a roll of the dice. I believe it's just different generations of the unit itself, who knows. All of the features work well, it has a better screen and overall interface/features than my 80$ planet audio in my other car. The only thing I can say about them is, they definitely don't put out a huge amount of power (obviously, considering price) mine starts to crackle as early as Volume 20 out of i believe 40. With the bass low I can get to volume 25 without any crackling (which is pretty loud honestly, my car is just loud so I have to fight the rusty exhaust 🤣). It is CLEAR audio, has bass, treble and audio placement settings. Everything you might need. I'm going to check out the phone connection tomorrow, I'm hoping it works 🤞 For the price, FANTASTIC stereo. Good amount of features/settings, good sound. Great for 95% of drivers out there! If you were trying to build an audio system with this guy, you would definitely need an amp. If your car is LOUD, it might be a tad quieter than you'd like it to be. Like I said, 95% of people would be good with this. I am a part of that 95%! I love it!

I agree, If you just wanna head unit to have some radio or background music, like most people do, yes the unit is just fine, but if you work with audio and like clear loud music, get something like avic-f80, worth every cent.
@jasonfelix5545 Жыл бұрын
For the price this Car stereo is great. the sound is on par if not better than my old Pioneer single din CD/MP3 player and definitely better than my Sony. Does what it says on the box. Not sure what video format is being used in this review, but there are other KZbin reviews where the guy was playing movies. Thanks for this review as you showed me how to change the logo, which I did not see in the other reviews.

You are stating that this stereo does not have Bluetooth, which is not true! Iy does have Bluetooth! By the way I am using this Stereo (7018B) in both of my cars and they are working really well, the older one for more then 3 years now! Pretty good for this price!

I’m glad you’re enjoying this low quality sound. Unfortunately product made that cheap with glitches and horrible touch screen is not acceptable to me. I’d rather spend $2000 and get a high end pioneer unit.
@Effendi2366610 ай бұрын
For sure I would prefer a $2000 Pioneer unit to this one, no question! But when I see that I get the 7018B on China for about $16 tp $18 it's like comparing a Dacia to a Rolls Royce. For the money spent it is surely a good offer, especially if you use the Bluetooth with your cell phone and so hardly ever use the touch screen. If you need more power you can add an amp. For my budget it's an ok low price solution@@MaxELECTRONICS

you get what you pay for in this world you buy a cheap radio you get cheap sound do yourself a favor and spend a few bucks more for a quality Kenwood Pioneer JVC anything but something that is cheap and Chinese if you’re going to spend $30 on your head unit which is the start of any good quality system you’re already fucking up system is only as good as it’s signal source no offense and I say this with all politeness no offense, but I would love to hear the rest of your radio if you’re swearing by this damn $30 unit I imagine your car sounds like a rumpke garbage truck loud annoying it just sounds like Just a bunch of loud ruckus that’s great you’re loud but it sounds like butt hole

No, the “reverse” wire and camera power wire need to connect to “positive “ wire of your reverse lamp. So when reverse light is on it supplies power to the “reverse” wire of stereo and to power wire of camera.
