Reviews around control (4.37 of 5)

  • great - Big buttons and excellent lighting make navigation easy - Control of modest volumes is
  • The remote control works quite well, but only from certain angles, is perhaps the only annoying, but it is something that I can adapt.
  • MP3s and strong radio stations sound excellent while the big volume knob provides super-fine control.
  • The remote control works quite well, but only from certain angles, is perhaps the only annoying, but it is something that I can adapt.
  • The remote control works only when pointed directly at the unit, so practically usless.

Reviews around stereo (4.21 of 5)

  • This stereo is better than I expected for a cheap stereo
  • Great, functional, but super basic double din stereo that can handle bluetooth and newer media connections
  • The stereo sounds great, and I love the RGB light display
  • Should've spent a little more money and got a better stereo, but this went into a work truck so it didn't really matter.
  • Stereo even works and sounds great, but BEWARE, wiring harness takes a lot of tinkering with you adjust properly due to mislabeling

Reviews around bluetooth (3.84 of 5)

  • The Bluetooth is very handy for answering the phone while driving and the display is nice and big
  • It also has the option of using a 3.5 mm line in cord if you don't want to use Bluetooth or if it's not available on a device like a media player, etc
  • My only disappointment is the sound of the hands free Bluetooth calling.
  • Works great and the Bluetooth is nice would buy a nother if I needed it
  • The Bluetooth is not good, the volume for some reason just gets louder and louder

Reviews around price (3.70 of 5)

  • Bought this to add a BT head to an older truck and it does everything it should at a very reasonable price
  • Very surprised for the cheap price sound
  • For once I thought I was getting a good deal for the cheap price
  • I replaced the factory stereo in my 2005 f-150, this stereo puts out great sound at a great price
  • No CD player, which kind of stinks as sometimes I just like the old-fashioned hard copy instead of relying on digital.

Reviews around product (3.61 of 5)

  • Arrived at time, it looks a very good product but every time we tried to use the USB the radio got crazy and after that it stoped work
  • Seeking refund as product is completely malfunctional, the Bluetooth stopped working on the second day, the USB only intermittently charges, when connecting via AAUX the radio needs to be switched on and off every time
  • This product is garbageThe bluetooth doesnt work and its been 3 days
  • I don't know if I'm just unlucky or this product was crap from the start, but it just won't work
  • n’t think I could recommend this radio for that reason only.

Reviews around upgrade (3.61 of 5)

  • While I wouldn't put this in any of our Cadillacs since those factory systems are better than this one and well, this one just isn't Cadillac material, it was a decent upgrade from the Alpine in Old Faithful in order to gain the bluetooth function
  • I’ve had it for about 2 years and before it wouldn’t turn back on, the colors started to mess up a
  • I recommend this stereo upgrade to anyone who wants a lot of flexibility in connection and access, plus doesn't want to break the bank
  • The Alpine obviously didn't have bluetooth, so this was an upgrade in that aspect and works fine for the purpose
  • I'm really confused as to why you'd need a remote when your phone works better, and the bad news is you have to be close to the system for it to work

Reviews around sound (3.61 of 5)

  • I replaced the factory stereo in my 2005 f-150, this stereo puts out great sound at a great price
  • The sound is better than factory, and we didn't change the speakers
  • The appearance is great, the sound is excellent, and the installation wasn't too difficult if you have some basic DIY wiring skills (and the ability to watch instructional videos on YouTube)
  • My only disappointment is the sound of the hands free Bluetooth calling.
  • The sound is adequate but the software is far too basic

Reviews around way (3.44 of 5)

  • Way more convenient then having to plug in an aux cord that gets in the way

Reviews around quality (3.12 of 5)

  • The sound quality is OK, but surprisingly good from a cheap unit
  • For the price tag I didn't expect much more than mediocre sound quality especially on OEM speakers but we cranked it up and the bass was great along with the mids and highs

  • Froze a few times on the road and let out a piercing beeeeeeeeeep for like 30 seconds before completely shutting off and starting up a few minutes later.

Reviews around noise (1.54 of 5)

  • No CD player, which kind of stinks as sometimes I just like the old-fashioned hard copy instead of relying on digital.
  • Purchase in April 2017, Started making loud snapping/popping noise after 1 month of use
  • Every time I start my car, this radio makes awful hissing and loud electronic noises for a few minutes, then there is a lower hissing noise that never goes away and is audible as you play music.
  • Too weak and light for it not to vibrate while engine is on, causes strong staticky white noise throughout car while volume is on.
