This is a big help for me. Just bought another car and was going thru videos of car stereo reviews and found You! Thanks😊😁👍🏾

I stumbled on your vid about 2 weeks ago and forgot to thank you for a great review. Your breakdown sold me on the T'Eyes over the IDoing unit!

I appreciate you so much Saab! Would have never known about all of these amazing options for my car ❤

After seeing your video, I went ahead and bought the Teyes CC3 for my 2009 Corolla and have to say I completely agree. This unit is the real deal and worth the money. Thanks!

I appreciate the reviews and videos. Because of your videos I had purchased a Joying OEM unit for my old Rav4 which I loved. Unfortunately that car was totaled a week and a half ago and so was the unit. I am now trying to find something that will fit my 2013 Nissan Pathfinder. While I do love the OEM look, my main concern is not losing the functionality of the dash (CD player, front and rear climate, etc). I reached out to T'eyes and am awaiting a response, Joying said they did not have an option for me, but I did find one through Seicane which they say that they have an OEM option that retains everything, but I have heard mixed reviews on their head units. I know you listed Seicane in your Top 10, so do you think they are worth a shot? Or, if going the T'eyes route, do they have options that would help retain the original functionality of my dash controls? Thanks again!

Just noticed your channel. Enjoyed and subscribed. Not really looking for a head unit for my car. But would like to change the head unit in my caravan. Was quite impressed with the joying. Have a single din space to fit in.. possibly able to adapt fit double din. I realise I will need to connect my phone or do they do wifi. I'm a silver surfer btw. Love your delivery style. Best wishes Douglas.

Hi, just watched 2-3 videos - like the contents and the way delivered 👍
two things are missing for me (had a bad experience with both) :
1. touch screen sensitivity (how hard you need to hit the screen for something to work)
2. internet connectivity (integrated 4G modem with SIM vs plugging an external USB modem)

I would like to see explanation on these topics in general as you experienced.
Thanks 🙂

very good video as always! I wondering what would be your top 3/10 for single DIN units, because I’m looking for this solution for an old VW T3.

Awesome video!!
Before I ask my question, let me just get the background explained quickly. I have a Volvo C30, it’s in the P1 group which includes the S40, V50 and C70. They all have the somewhat famous "waterfall" centre console. I am looking to install an Android head unit, but I'm new at this and trying to figure out what to get. I'm a mechanic, I'm confident that I can manage the physical installation.

The biggest problem I'm facing is that I have automatic double climate control, and I need the temp settings to be displayed on the new head unit. All other information is either not nessesary to display (volume, fan speed), already on a different display (cruise control, door indicator), or is shown by little led indicator lights on the centre console (heated seats, automatic AC on/off, fan-blow direction etc.).

I need an android head unit that can take input from the centre console control buttons and steeringwheel buttons for the menues and radio etc.

I also want it to have its own sim, so that it can run (with internet) completely on its own.

And it should be a crisp and quick 7" (double din).

I mean, I have found a few options, but the only one that I know of that can display the climate control temp setting is the bluepower BLP-990 unit. However, this just overlays the old screen, which looks really (in my opinion), really bad. It kind of ruins the point of installing a new head unit. I also does not like how it is mounted, and I've read many mixed reviews on bluepower, mainly that their units are often faulty and their support/service is close to non existent.

You seem to be an expert on the field, and additionally maybe someone viewing this video might be able to help.

Thanks again for the video!

Hi just discovered your channel.and loving the no nonsense reviews.just looking at a type built for my insignia 2015. Just wondering if you have any experience on these units .

[theprofessor]

Hey! Thanks for the video. Among the list or outside the list, what seems to be the best value brand so far? Thanks.

[mikeyspicemike]

Thanks for your informative videos. What do you recommend for 2009 Lexus GS350? Having difficulty locating from those you've listed

[konstantinosandronikos]

Hi and thank you for this great video! Any suggestions for a BMW X1 F48 head unit upgrade?

[CrinosAD]

Thank you for great reviews and videos about Android Car Players.
A question perhaps you, or others could answer. My wife have a Golf 7, with everything integrated into the stock head unit. If I where to buy the Teyes CC3... Would the cars system work properly, like the in center dash information and such ?

[Theferg]

Great video on the android here units. Do you have a 2023 video like this? With newer units?

[arunp]

Hi great video keep up the good work. I have a vaxhall insignia yr 2010 and just wanted to ask you which tesla style android unit you would recommend as there sooo many companies to choose from🤔 willing to spend 400 pounds.. Thx

[towerfx]

Hi Saab, thanks for the video, very helpful! I own a 2006 Range Rover L322 (Jaguar engine), and I’m looking to upgrade the old head unit with an Android head unit. Wondering if you have any advice on potential options. Maybe one this video? Really love Tayes… Definitely looking for an option that can successfully retain/display most of my RR factory setting/features. What would you recommend?!

[valdeera]

Hi there. Great video comparing the top units. I have the Idoing in my wrx for over a year now, and it is great. Now I'm looking to get another one of these head units for my other subaru. I see they make one from Teyes for my car as well. Now I'm debating between Idoing and Teyes. I like the Idoing from the point that it sits flat as the oem but not a big fan on the display being vertical. On the other hand, the Teyes one sits horizontal, but it sticks out quite a bit from the face of the original head unit. Any preference on this? Also, Idoing has wireless android auto where Teyes does not. Thanks.

Has there been any better ones to come out since you did this review? Based on the three you have here, which one would you recommended for an open top vehicle that is always exposed to sun light? I currently have the Dasaita Vivid with an anti-glare, but when the sun is behind me while driving I can't see anything. It makes the whole experience of having one of these useless. Are any of three you have reviewed here equal to that of a cell phone or tablet screen with the max brightness? Are there any other ones that aren't as superior to these but have a nice bright screen?
