Awesome Box for Apple Carplay!

I bought this unit wanting Carplay in my 2018 Jaguar XE. It exceeded all expectations! Only thing is, I would recommend putting a manual or installation instructions in the box it ships in. I, however, have moderate tech skills so I was able to install this with little to no trouble. I'll attach a youtube video that I used for reference. Please note, the video is used for Jaguar F-Pace, but only difference is the location of all of the infotainment equipment (which is under the driver seat of the f-pace) where as in the Jaguar, it is located directly behind the 8" screen. All in all, very satisfied with this product!

Quick Response and very nice service

I had broken the connector of the screen which I purchased sometime back. Needed a quick replacement and so contacted them.. was able to quickly get what I needed and within a week the connector was in my hand. Thank you for quick response and will surely recommend this supplier.

Nice and Easy Upgrade!

The installation was really amazing. Happy with the purchase.

Thank you Fannie for your support. The technical support team is excellent

Great dongle

This works awesome. I got it for my work truck because I was tired of always plugging and unplugging my phone. When I start the truck it boots up and automatically connects. Definitely worth the money I paid for it!

love very nice

I was so skeptical about this it was so easy to install ! It was so simple
To install and it works amazing everything worked first try! If you've installed market decks before u know ow all the wires u have to splice and then trouble shoot? This is all plug and play no wire splicing like at all! I can't say enough about how impressed I am with this seller even msged me to give me install instructions and code for settings I absolutely love it!

Good product, but the perfect fit is something else!

Product came as ordered with all necessary accessories. Function and display display good.
I recommend the product unreservedly to anyone who can do that. All functions of the vehicle are retained.

Perfect

Very good quality screen, easy installation, looks perfect in the car. The seller a 10. 100% recommended

Great part

I installed the device today. It took 20 minutes and works perfectly..
I was skeptical before but I can recommend it to everyone..

suitable

Easy to install (Audi A5)
Clear (English) manual.
does what it promises.

After a few improvements, a good retrofit solution

CarPlay works very well with it. Occasionally it is a little chewy, but that is very rarely the case.
It is recommended to be particularly careful when removing the regular radio.

The support from the manufacturer comes from China and is therefore associated with delays. They tried very hard and found solutions in my case. (Includes update via USB stick)

Been using it for 2 months and very satisfied!

The CarPlay works approximately 70-80% properly and is very easy to install.

Absolutely satisfied

I've been using this little box for a few weeks now and I can only say it's great. I tested many, but only this one satisfied me. Something always bothered me about the other boxes. Crashes, lags or the like. But everything works great with the box. She starts quickly. Runs smoothly. Everything perfect. Installation super easy. Plug it in, connect via Bluetooth and you're done.

Would recommend

Excellent. Very beautiful image on the videos Very easy to install I recommend to everyone Thank you

Very good product

Delivery was very quick, the instructions were understandable provided you have a bit of experience but it was definitely possible. The support helped me with this from China always supported with questions.

It works perfectly.

Very good display that now shows us the information we want in the field of vision.
Installation was very easy to do within a few minutes. A great display for the price.

Carplay Honda

Excellent seller, good communication. An update of the carplay was necessary and everything is back to normal.
Thank you for your response.
See you soon

Nice piece

It's actually quite easy if you have a certain basic technical understanding.
In the end, I installed a modern, great-functioning radio that can easily keep up with today's systems.

Amazing

looks great and has wireless apple car play, it’s also very smooth which i didn’t expect but it’s awesome. would 100 percent recommend

Excellent carplay product

I have installed it myself, the most difficult thing, disassembling the parts of the car to remove the equipment, the plate is easy to install following a tutorial, the operation is perfect, you can have everything original and switch to CarPlay, at any time by pressing a button, very good sound, overall very good

good product

Product conforms to the description, the failures are difficult to replace unless the product is of quality and fluid
I recommend it

all-in-one product

This Android display for my BMW E83 is ideal. I didn't have to retrofit an expensive model from the original manufacturer but instead installed a relatively inexpensive Apple Car touch display with little fiddling. For firmware updates you must contact the manufacturer directly.

Not market ready, too many shortcomings

The system is hard to control with a joystick. My system has a split screen and when I switch to CarPlay it operates both sides of the screen simultaneously. Does not cover up the left side of the screen completely. Stays on when you shift into reverse and covers up back up camera image.

CarPlay upgrade for 2014 X3

I upgraded my BMW X3 5” screen with no CarPlay.
No problems at all! This thing is great. Good screen quality. Follows the brightness on the car dashboard.
Can use touchscreen or BMW knob to nav CarPlay.
Make sure to move the fiber cable to the new harness.
Phone works through CarPlay perfectly.

A few niggles but a pretty decent upgrade for my 2010 E91 + CIC

I bought this screen with the reversing camera a couple of months ago. It's been a pretty decent investment and overall I am glad that I did it is far from perfect.

- Install wasn't too bad. Some instructions and a wiring diagram sure would have helped but I was able to piece it together watching random Youtube videos
- Rear-view camera quality is good and it comes on reliably when going into reverse. Great to have the indicator lines and it's good that the parking sensors still work.
- Once Android Auto connects the connection is very stable and works great
- Screen is pretty reflective but not too bad, screen quality is really good and big upgrade from my existing 6.5" display.
- Audio quality through the AUX wire has been great for me.

My annoyances
- The audio mutes when the reverse camera comes on. There is a setting in the advanced menu for "Reverse mute open/close" but the audio still mutes no matter which setting I choose. Very frustrating.
- The reverse camera stays on for quite a while even after moving out of reverse (approximately 10 seconds). Not a major deal but it's just a bit weird to be driving down the street for a while with the reverse camera still on and not being able to use the screen.
- I wish that there was better integration with the iDrive knob. Moving around the Android Auto menu and selecting things is fine, but I wish they would have set the "back" button on iDrive to mimic "back" in AA. Same with the menu/home button. Pressing it will drop you back to the head unit homescreen rather than behaving like pressing the home button in AA.
- The reversing camera only just barely fits in the E91 wagon boot (ie trunk). The button on it actually broke off trying to get it to fit in and I had to repair it. Even then it required a lot of squeezing to finally get it to fit past where the rear BMW logo sits.
- The USB connection is data only and barely provides enough power to charge the phone.

Overall it is certainly an improvement but far from a flawless.

Great Value

So far so good. Install time was greatly inflated due to lack of instructions. Needed to reference Google a few times. After working out a few kinks, I can say that I'm very happy with this unit at about half the cost of the MMI Prime. Back up camera shipped separately and about a week behind, so I will update after I receive and install that.
