Android Double Din Head Unit

[Croccy]

Hi,

Yes it has full play store access. I haven't tried spotify but I use Google Play Music on it with no problems. Never had an android app not work on it apart from Pokemon Go LOL.

Matt.

Do these have access to the Playstore?? And most importantly Spotify or Tidal apps??

I haven't purchased one myself yet (although its next on the shopping list) but it appears these all do have access to the Play Store as they are running the same kind of Android you'd have on your phone/tablet. I've seen people running Spotify on them in YouTube videos, but bear in mind they generally run older versions of Android if any apps you wanna use require newer versions.

Just ordered this today with European maps

CAM+ 6.2" Android 5.1 Double DIN Sat Nav Car GPS DVD Stereo DAB+ Radio WiFi 3G

Mate has it and it's awesome

My radio reception has gone to pot on mine. Might be the car though.

Also apple music won't run on it annoyingly.

My biggest bug with it a year after buying is the sound quality over BT connection, gets bad at higher volume. I just put in an rca to 3.5mm Jack and use the AV input instead now.

As a tip, with any of these Chinese style head units, I would get it from Amazon, as if something breaks in the future they are much more helpful with replacements / refunds than eBay ever will be..

I am tempted as I've got a pioneer one and the user interface is just awful and slow

I've gone direct to the company mate and on their fbook etc they are really good at customer service and after sales from what I can see.

Just ordered one off Amazon for £209. Cheap enough and the one I have in the car is crap!

Everyone still happy with these?

I was tempted by the one linked in but think I might go for this instead:

https://www.amazon.co.uk/Pumpkin-Android-Lollipop-Navigation-Bluetooth/dp/B01FD6U7E4/ref=cm_cr_arp_d_product_sims?ie=UTF8&th=1

It has a slightly lower screen resolution but everything else looks to match up. It also has the benefit of a CD/DVD player slot, not that I use them much but nice to have.

Any more opinions before I decide to purchase?

 

[Croccy]

That's the one I bought for myself. Not had any issues. Looks like they updated Android on them now too.

 

[tricker_luke]

The one I linked with DVD player or the one in your second post?

If the same as the one I linked, could you take a pic so I can see it fitted please?

 

[Croccy]

Not the best photo but it's all I have on my phone at the moment.

My link I posted in my second post was actually this stereo, but it looks like Amazon have changed the links so it now points to the wrong one

My stereo actually has the DVD player and the buttons down both sides.

 

[tricker_luke]

That looks good fitted so I reckon I will go for that one! I prefer the buttons, saves having to worry about finding the volume controls etc while driving!

I read a review and it mentioned the brightness, apparently you can drag the screen down from the top like a phone and adjust brightness there?

 

[MilanoChris]

I got round to fitting mine today, over the moon and it's better than a £800 one I had in the Evo!

 

[tricker_luke]

Did you go for the button dvd one or the full screen with red lights?

That's the one I have.

Yes you can adjust the brightness easy enough. I downloaded an app off the play store that auto adjusts it depending on the time on day.

Ebay Item - 162262553046

Been amazing so far and works flawlessly, also programmed it to show the H (Honda logo when its powering up)...

 

[MilanoChris]

I must admit that I'm not a fan of the ones with the massive buttons.
