I found some of the video streaming was limited due to the coding of the app not allowing it. It also had a weak radio Tuner if that is still your thing….basically pushes you to use only app based radio tuners including XM.
You really should join Sev’s FB page to get updates on this unit. Currently there are no units being sold due to chip availability and quality control issues. Many of these had the screens delaminate from the unit and numerous mic issues that pretty much make hands free calling unusable. That is why I returned both of mine. Guarantee someone will comment that they don’t have a problem….but it is enough of an issue that they completely stopped selling them until the factory gets these things ironed out.
He reports on the page that they are working on a new version that is styled similar to the 2020 OEM unit with the knobs at the bottom and more quick access buttons. I think it looks better and hopefully fixes the screen problems. Then it is just a question if they can fix the stupid internal mic and when they are going to be able to source chips to build it.
My take is that it is not “wife friendly” given all the quirks. Basically it is an Android tablet running on your dash and brings all the complexities you would imagine….app use is pretty unlimited. For my use, it was an easier upgrade path to stay OEM and add a DSP enabled amp. I would really like CarPlay in my 2015 but it is just not worth the compromise.

Thanks. Sounds like I'm getting her that spa for the deck.
