Good deck for handsfree electronics
||Posted . Owned for 5 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Like the deck. Install was good. I updated the firmware with a flashdrive The connection to the wireless Android Audio was tricky at times for about a week at most, but it connects good after that. Sound is good. Have a real eq built-in. Although it calls for a connection to the speedometer for apple carplay, i used my iphone14 for a day and it never stopped working although i didn't connect the rpms cable Connected my amp and Woofers to add sub. The deck is good aftermarket addition.

Awesome after-market Android Auto radio
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This is definitely a great after-market radio. It replaced a JVC radio that lasted about a week. I love that it has wireless Android Auto and Apple Carplay. It integrates well with my 2013 Prius (also needed the idatalink maestro for this which is a separate purchase $$$). A decent amount of customizability, but not overwhelming. I love how low profile it is too; other than the Sony brand, there's nothing else unnecessary printed on the front (which was kind of a peeve with other radios). It's matte finish screen makes for a less vibrant image, but it's better that way because the glare was so bad on other radios; especially for my car. The matte screen also means that oily finger smudges aren't as noticeable. As a side note, I did install this myself; I didn't think it was too bad with the right tools, but use your own discretion.

Good stereo!
||Posted . Owned for 2 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I love the stereo. I just think the quality of the camera is not that good! Either way is still a good stereo. It was just that that I don’t really like.

Installed on a 2005 Toyota Tacoma
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Purchased and got the free install from Geek Squad. So far so good - the wireless CarPlay was what sold me on this. The interface isn't super laggy like some of the budget units are (but in no means will it feel like 120Hz). Rear Camera is a fairly simple install as well. The physical buttons are a pro for me as well. Does also come with USB-C, which is a nice upgrade from USB 3.0.

Sony Car Receiver & iBeam Rear View Camera Install
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Needed new Car Stereo and backup Camera for 2007 Truck. Install was supposed to take 4 1/2 hours. Ralph at Mueller Rd Best Buy got done in 2 hours. Perfect clean install. Sony receiver is great, Rear view camera is awesome - better than wife's new Suburban. Great job to Ralph the Installer, who was amazing.

Amazing radio and typical Sony quality!
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Amazing radio, it has all of the features I could ever want and Apple CarPlay to boot. The staff in the car audio department did a great job installing it in my 25 year old Porsche Boxster. It brought it up to current standards and I couldn’t be happier with the sound quality.

Excellent Choice
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This replaced my factory am/fm radio in my Jeep Wrangler, so anything would have been an upgrade. But I am really happy with this. Everything worked flawlessly. I can't say enough good things about it.

Very Happy Customer!
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.My factory radio crashed and burned in my 2014 F-150. So I went without a radio for 8 months looked and looked on line….finally went into Best Buy and talk to a young man radio technician “geek squad” he was so helpful! He asked what I was looking for in my truck radio I told him and he give me a few different options and they were all great but I think with his help I made the best one!!! Great radio and looks just like factory installed from Ford!!! Geek Squad installed everything for me they are great.The young man that installed it made sure I was happy and really explained everything to me about my new radio set up
