New Dasaita Head-unit

[xpicer]

Koi

What’s the FB group ? What are the issues ?

Light bleeding from the buttons / the brightnes a bit too high.
The volume control takes alot of clicks to go up or down, but then again it helps to put the volume at the perfect level . Small minuscule issues.

The only thing I did not like much is that you cant use the oem mounting brackets but I can easly make some.

Wow. Looks just as nice as the T9. Wasn’t sure what it would look like with the knobs in the lower part of the unit. Any suggestions for install once mine comes in?

The hardest part might be routing the gps and mic. Other than that, is fully plug and play. I say is close to perfect.

so what's the advantage of this over the T9 which has a much better price?

I think this is based on android 10 and T9 is either android 8/9

I ordered an adapter so I can use the original sharkfin antenna on the 4Runner, so I’m not gonna mess with that. I’ll see what happens with the mike.

Maybe not much, but Dasaita is/might be a known brand so hoping that gives a more stable unit and better radio experience with less glitches than the t9. Output is 50 watts vs 45 on the t9 so slightly better on the Dasaita. PX10 chip on Dasaita, 10.2 inch screen, hdmi out, supports 4K video, built in Zlink for wired/wireless carplay and wired android auto. Got mine on sale Fathersday weekend for $599 and eBay gave me another $50 off so got it for $549. Not too much difference in price from t9.

All good points .. if it had a more competitive price I think the market would open up - for the price and minor differences the T9 seems like the better buy still.

what are the specs (processor, android version, etc...)

The screen size looks deceiving. It's listed as 10.2 but looks a lot shorter compared to the T9. It's an inch wider but seems smaller compared to the T9.

Too expensive for us Canadians

Got the same email that other users have and they want me to buy and once I post something of a install to YouTube I’d get 50% back but I’m not into that! At 599 usd to Canadian that’s 800$!!!! Even at 50% back that’s a little too rich for me. Plus duty plus tax . Glad this got some users a nice head unit and wish I could afford it but for now I just Velcro my phone to the dash sideways for directions.

It sure looks that way. More rectangular, a “letterbox” look to the screen as opposed to a squarer look in the T9.

I just got my T9. The first thing I did was paint the plastic Toyota Pearl Black to match the Off Road trim and two coats of clear. I have been using Androids since the beginning so it shouldn't be an issue. I will install it this weekend.

I originally ordered it from CTH when covid started and it got lost in shipping. After three months I emailed them and they sent me a second via DHL at their cost.

I need a 50% refund email; that would prompt me to buy one lol

 

[TK-422]

I got the T9 installed and so far so good.

No humming
Backup camera works
Blootooth works with my Samsung Note 10+
No dust under the screen

I am really liking the T9 so far. With either Android Radio I recommend these apps.

AGAMA Launcher. Very customizable. ($2)

 

[TK-422]

Sygic Maps. Easy to read while driving. Free but $7 for navigation or $26 full blown version.

 

[TK-422]

Whoops. Navigation.

Why is everyone posting about the T9 in a thread meant for a completely different head unit?

Here's a video I made of the Dasaita I installed in my 2019 SR5 Premium. It finally came in on July 3rd. Nothing fancy, just a show and tell if your wondering what it looks like: https://youtu.be/BjgH3wWr5f0

Sorry I f*d up the original T9 thread and have not been able to get admins to fix it for months. I just made a bad youtube link.

My last post was for either unit since they are both android.
