I had my doubts when I ordered Plantet audio. Doubt no more this thing is amazing. Did self install little over 1 hour with no problems. Didn’t purchase cameras until I made sure radio worked will be ordering those soon. I’m a cheapskate so for me to say it’s worth every penny says a lot.

Was looking for a cheap radio with Android auto for my 2014 suburu Crosstrek since it's my daily driver. Looks great and it's snappy/ very responsive. Deducting 1 star at the moment because Android auto disconnects randomly. Could be a cable issue. Will update

I love this head unit so far. Favorite feature is Apple CarPlay & android auto. I haven’t had any trouble. I drive a Jeep so the removable monitor is a plus when the doors are off. I do wish the equalizer had better settings but no biggie. If you’re installing a back up camera as well only turn on the review camera power and review camera options turning on “review camera view” flips the image.

It’s a good product. Matched perfectly with my car. My only issue is with the audio sound adjustment, it’s not complicated at all , you just can’t adjust your presets without the system making you adjust ALL the sound moving all presets to 0. Sorry, I’m not an audio technician, feels like I’m adjusting sound constantly. Outside of that, it’s awesome.

I pulled my 1200$ alpine out of my truck and put this one in and I have to say for 1/3 the price it’s probably 5 times better. Touch response and turn on time is better. Sound controls are way better. The reason for 4 stars is the little lag when you press the home butter or settings button. But hands down a great unit and ones twice as much don’t compare.

It's a great bang for your buck. Don't expect anything more than what it is. A good go to stereo that looks nice with a big screen. I really like that it has an extra port to charge your passengers phone. I put this in my 2005 Ford F-150 and I would recommend it for any of your older vehicles. Biggest issue is that people say they hear an echo when they call me.

Pretty cool device. Used in a 97 Cherokee and works perfect. Powers jbl component speakers perfectly. East to use, apple car play is great. Only complaint is radio stations are not the clearest.

Pretty solid if your looking to make your car an updated tech package without getting an whole brand new car replacing parts for this device can be expensive but I would advise getting a protection plan

The display looks great in the car during the day and at night and it adds a lot of life to my car. The only thing that I don’t like is how far the display sticks out from the dashboard. It looks somewhat out of place. Other than that, this is a great product considering its price

I have been using this Planet Audio Receiver for around 4 months now and love it! It installed easily and is a good fit in my 2002 Chevy Silverado 2500 HD LS truck. The screen is large and bright. My iPhone connects via Bluetooth with no issues and Apple CarPlay works well when plugged in to the USB port.

So far so good. Very cautious about the off brand but the processing speed is better than my one year old KENWOOD that was nearly three times the price. CarPlay Is not wireless—you must use the USB port for it to work. So far it is super fast and no bugs or issues. Decent output from the internal amp. For $300 you can’t go wrong. The screen is detachable and you can adjust it to different angles and tilts. Finally, it has an actual volume knob!
