I actually have one unit of this player. It suited my mercedes w124 however the only complain is when using the apple carplay, let say using the map together with spotify, it will lag.. maybe due to the processor is small. Other than that, it works fine and yes the screen is small but for that price, u cant find other player like that

What a complete, insightful & honest review! Thanks very much 👍

That is an amazing price for everything that you get. I've been thinking about a single DIN unit for my beater car only because I can't fit a double DIN or a single with a 7" screen. You've given me something to consider.

Surely you have played the lottery due to the bad experiences of some users, when purchasing a model like this one that has a higher 5188W, with the novelty that Android auto and carplay are Wireless, In addition to being able to use it with cable. I bought it on Aliexpress and when I have it installed I will comment on my experience. Thanks for the video. I purchased it at a very affordable price with the discount coupons and for 38€, European currency, it is an attractive investment. It doesn't reach $42 or £33

You made my day by the Saab color shout out

Cracking review. Just about to pick up an old Crossfire with a single din head unit and want to put Android Auto in. Might end up going this route

[Tyler-npud]

Is there a single din unit that has better sound with the volume knob along with apple car play?

[angus]

If you're on a budget this is perfect, for $60 that's feature rich and a camera. Not bad at all.

More Single Din like this please! People in the US have gone crazy over one in Walmart (Power Acoustik CP-71) but we can't get it here in the UK :(

porsche classic has a single din car play headunit but it is $1200

The competitive alternative would be to do a regular head-unit with high audio quality for $40-$60, and a nicer phone mount. The phone is less glitchy and laggy, safer on the road. Plus the phone mount could be in a more logical position to be less distractive. A regular radio would have more dials that are tactile and require less looking = safer. The other alternative backup cameras now can connect to your phone, or alternatively a digital center mirror. So is this unit worth it? maybe probably not. These cheap touchscreens last typically like a year....

hey, really appreciate the in-depth review. you’re the only one i’ve found that’s actually given a good review of this device.

i had a question about the carplay.

if i install this unit, and then install a wireless carplay device/receiver into the cigarette lighter of my car, would wireless apple carplay work? would really appreciate if you could fine an answer for me :)

[reddeviluk]

I do like the physical form factor, but leaves the screen a little small. I'm hunting through your videos to try and find one for a VW Up... Looks like a floating screen is going to be the way to go, but this could look good

[TheDutyPaid]

Have you done any reviews of the cheap flip out single din radios from eBay etc?

[ryanvanderplas]

Thanks for the review. Another question: does apple carplay work when plugged in to the upper usb-c (i.e., can you use apple carplay while charging your phone)?

[trevormoore]

U need to have a fire sale on all the equipment in the background lol

[TorresMark]

Would it benefit from a quality amp, or does the cheap source make that non-beneficial? This unit is perfect for a classic car where we hide the head units in the glove box. Trouble is the car has quality speakers, so I'm hesitant to add a low quality source. Thank you!

[EseParalistDeAhi]

would be awesome if you could review the unbranded (jansite, srnubi, develuck, etc) 1DIN "T10 / T10Plus", which seems to be the beefy version of the 1DIN "T3".
its very hard to find good head units with actual 1DIN screens like this roinvou.

[fiestasiphil]

great video, are there any other more expensive single din android auto headunits about?

[moemonney]

I had it in a 86 Mercedes 560sl. Used apple car play regularly and it lagged all the time. It was annoying. It would skip during a song or if the gps was guiding and musing playing with apple car play it would freeze sometimes. I think the processor wasn’t good enough.
