CTHome T10 Head Unit coming?

Many people seem to like it. I just sold my T10-V2/6-128 and never installed it. Was here less than 2 weeks and it just wasn't for me. It requires a lot of tinkering and my OCD nature could not deal with fit and finish vs OEM. But that is me and you may love the unit.

how has the T10 been? I came across one for a good price it seems , very tempted to give it a try
 
I'm very skeptical about the unit. I've been in the Facebook group for a couple of years considering getting one but it seems with every iteration they get worse. The T10 V2 seems to have nothing but problems. Be cautious.

locally there is one at about half price and im tempted to try it out. I do understand its basically an android tablet so there will be issues. I did develop roms years ago on xda forum for phones.
 
Here is a short video I shot with the T9. I use the same dongle configuration on the T10.

My experience....the built in wireless CarPlay on the T9 was not good. Lots of skipping, echoing calls, connection issues etc. I swapped over to the dongle and CarPlay ran very smooth, no dropouts, good initial connection speed etc. The only problem I had was a continuous echo problem on calls using the built in mic over CarPlay....didn't matter if I used the built in wireless CarPlay or the dongle. It was not good and I didn't want to used the external puck mic.

So I swapped over to the T10 and calls with the internal mic over BT are good. But when I load up CarPlay on the internal wireless connection, I still get a slight echo that is worse when the caller volume is turned up...It is better than the T9, but it is still there. So I decided to test out the wired/wireless dongle from my T9 on the T10. Same good connection, no skipping and calls do not echo. It just works.

Still using the t10? Would it be worth buying at about half price?
 
Nope.

Too many problems with the T10 mic and screen lifting off from the upper corners. They just redesigned it to help with the screen lifting issues....but now it has other quality control issues. If you find a good one, cheap...then go for it. I am back to OEM.

seller was asking $500 , willing to take $250 may just hold out and say $100

For $250 give it a try - lots of people are happy with them. You can always resell it for $250/$300 quick.

The T10V2 seems to have solved the screen issues. There were some issues with the emergency flasher button, but supposedly are fixed. TBD though as the next batch ships in a few weeks.

I've been a part of the facebook group they have as I'm on the fence of buying one for the past 2 years

I'm on the fence on buying it still, its the T10 unit and price is reasonable to try it out. Quality seems to be a concern with many of these units and if you've been debating it for two years thats concerning.

Has anyone here loaded custom roms from XDA? Its basically an android tablet so its open source and be modified. This can be helpful and a problem in keeping testing new roms/apps.

Main concern is the mic and quality of calls, does it vary using car play &
bluetooth? AM/FM radio signal is weak? Apps would need a hot spot or utilize the sim car with a data plan while driving, can mirror iphone to headunit or use carplay.
 
CT Home t10 V2 installed today

Installed a V2 in my 2017 limited. Took 4 days to get it here from China.
So far everything works as advertised, and no issues. Install took a few hours.
I love having CarPlay wireless. No dongle required. Facebook group is very helpful if you buy thru them. I’d post an image if I knew how. Great improvement over entune.
