Finally, the head unit that my 5 Series BMW has always deserved. If you're looking for the ultimate touch screen display to add Android Auto and Apple Carplay to your vehicle, look no further. All original functionality as well as steering wheel controls, reverse cam and iDrive system work flawlessly with this upgrade. Made for many makes and models with 4G and WIFI capabilities, this unit adds everything that your vehicle has been missing. Especially if your BMW was affected by the recent discontinuation of the 3G subscription and is unable to retrofit to 4G.

Regarding the questions about full screen display while using wireless Carplay/Android Auto. The units are set to display full screen wireless right out of the box, however mine was windowed in this review. All you have to do is go into settings and uncheck the "HD" option and wireless will run in full screen.

Thanks for the video, its very helpful. For data connection you have to use the Tasker app to enable the hot spot etc. Is it an option to just add a data SIM to the screen, as it has the provision of a SIM slot on the side and just use the always-on data? If yes, any reason you chose to go the other route?

Do all the items you displayed in the unboxing section come stock? When I went to their website, I couldn’t find information on ‘what’s included in the box”. They also show a bunch of add-on upgrade and extras for additional fees, which some do resemble to what you have unboxed. Just curious if you got those items as an add-on or they come standard with the order.

I think I opted for a couple of upgrades, but it's been a while and I can't quite remember. One of them was the optional Wi-Fi antenna I think? Which I don't even use. Another one was the mid-grade processor I think. I didn't buy the absolute base, but they're pretty much all the same.

Hi, the hotspot connection thing, is just to be able to use the app with internet on the screen ? If we use only with CarPlay / Android auto, data from hotspot or GPS antenna is not required right ? It uses directly from the phone ? Those are required if you launch google maps directly from the screen without the help of Android Auto ? Thanks !
@Scantron5k
@Scantron5k 6 күн бұрын
Correct. You don't have to use the mobile hotspot feature as connecting either wirelessly or wired USB and using carplay or Android auto will use the data from your phone to run those programs on the head unit. I did away with using the hotspot thing after testing it and reviewing this in the video as I don't need it with Android Auto.

Yes, I love it. As far as a boot screen, you can set it with several pre-loaded options but if you want an Android logo or maybe the logo of the make of your car, you might have to get one from the manufacturer or somebody else online. And yeah, the sound is the same. At least in my opinion it is. It really is a nice, clean head unit.

Yes, I have the HUD. However, when using navigation, etc on this head unit OS, it will not show the data on the HUD. But, normal things like speed limit and whatnot are always displayed. And of course, if you decide to use the head unit as a larger touch screen with the stock iDrive system, the HUD will display everything the way that it always has. You can switch back and forth between interfaces by holding the menu button for 3 seconds.

That's just the way the interface works, but you will be limited to the features of carplay as it is supposed to be safe for driving.

@@Scantron5k ah ok, odd why they give option to add Cp and aa wired and wireless as an extra for this product, if it already comes with it.

Hey man, wish I could help but I do not know anyone personally who has installed it in a 7 series. But I can tell you that this head unit is the real deal.

@@Scantron5k OK thanks right quick tho do they make one for F01 CIC model 7 series? I already know I about the AUX and all...imma have everything ran into the armrest where the Aux is and make sure the wires are tucked so I'm fine with that I just want to make sure the headunit I get does what it's suppose to do without alot of trouble shooting. You were talking about the Tasker app what exactly is that for? I'm asking like that because I'm having a dedicated mobile hotspot installed with that being said will I still have a problem with this unit automatically connecting via wifi when the car is started? The mobile hotspot will power on when the car is started so once this unit receives the signal will it connect automatically or do I have to switch to the android system then manually connect it? Any help or advice you can give would be great even if you have the link to buy the model for the 7 series if possible. Thanks

@@marcelauthorlee8322 I'm not sure about the model for the 7 series but I'm sure that they make one. When you use my link to go to their site, just search the make and model of your car to make sure you're buying the right unit. As for the hotspot, you won't need to worry about the Tasker app if you have a hotspot. It will automatically turn on in your unit will automatically connect to the Wi-Fi every time you turn it on. You don't really need a hotspot though, I was testing the ability of the head unit to use hotspot but when you connect using Android auto or apple carplay, it will automatically use your phone's data service to run the head unit using carplay. You can use it wirelessly or via USB. Keep in mind that if you're going to use the hotspot, it's still will only use car play or Android auto if you connect your phone wirelessly or via usb. All the hotspot will do will essentially connect the unit to Wi-Fi and you can use it as a tablet. Meaning you can watch netflix, browse Facebook and whatnot on it. I don't really use it for those things so I find that using Wireless or wired Android auto or car play is fine.

@@marcelauthorlee8322 oh, and I don't have to use an auxiliary in my center console. The wiring harness that comes with the unit is connected behind the head unit and everything is all encompassed in the wiring harness. I know some models require the auxiliary to be plugged in somewhere but mine is already baked into the wiring harness so no extra steps there.

@@Scantron5k Yea you have that direct connect the real plug and play in your car some of us aren't that lucky lol but I don't mind the aux plug cuz like I said imma have it all tucked lol. The reason for the mobile hotspot is not only for the headunit my headrest monitors connect to wifi too to access FB the Gram and the like. So if this headunit will automatically connect that's fine there are other apps and stuff that I would be content using for navigation and things like that. I should still be able to use Spotify and Panador for my music right? By the way I really appreciate you taking out the time to answer my questions. The headunit will be the finial piece in my set up I have everything else already so I'm trying to make the best decision with that. Thanks again for your help @Scantron5k

My cousin recently relocated to the PNW She had a defunct Parrot & SiriusXM radio somehow still attached She got an android headunit, which accomplishes all of that (& MORE) I was on the phone with her when her installer said, it'll be $300 more to uninstall those devices He explained wires had been spliced inorder to install, etc I asked her to put me on speaker I said, each of those units are plug-n-play. Connectivity is achieved via wiring harnesses. While you have the dashboard open, all you have to do is unplug those devices & pull the harnesses I don't think the installer liked me I didn't like him, either I told her to get another opinion She did

"the GPS antenna is doing its job". But if you are in carplay/android auto, the GPS data is coming from your phones GPS chip. The GPS antenna from the device would only be in use if you use the on board software. I never would so that be a pointless installation for me

Perhaps I should have showcased this a bit more when I was using my Wi-Fi tethering. The GPS antenna also did its job when it was using the Wi-Fi tether and I pulled up Google Maps that way as well.
