Anyone tried “mergescreens’

Does anyone have any experience with Mergescreens CarPlay modules? The unit looks very cool but looks can be deceiving. Thoughts/experiences?

I've followed the Tesla style screens for a few years. Aucar and Phoenix both sell those same headunits. Imo, they seem to be more prone to issues than the Joying or Daishita units. They're all Android based headunits that have a third party software connector to Carplay or Android Auto. These Tesla style units are also twice the cost with no extra features other than they remove your physical buttons for soft buttons like a Tesla.

Also the Joying headunits are ugradeable from Android 10 to Android 12. I've not once seen an Android firmware upgrade for the Tesla style units

 

Thank you for the response, very helpful!!

 

I just ordered one and I’m getting it installed next Monday. I know this forum is old but I’ll still put out an update. I’ve only heard good things about these screens.

 

@Nathannwokenkwo
Just saw your post while also researching that company - see you bought a few weeks ago. how did it go? My biggest worry is the unit working with all the other features I have (my heated/cooled seats are only controlled by my screen).
Full disclosure.. Im driving a Jeep Cherokee lol... but your post came up on my google search of the manufacturer and figured it was worth asking!
Thanks in advance!
Cheers

 

I bought a Mergescreen for my 2013 Tundra. It worked for 3 weeks. The screen started to not turn on and I have been working with them for a month and a half to resolve it. Disconnecting the battery install firmware after firmware. It is the worst customer service I have ever worked with. There communication is terrible and troubleshooting is only available on WhatsApp. They are rude at customers service when finally get to speak to Dylan or Romero. They have no idea what is going on between customer service and returns. I am going on week 3 of a hole in the dash because I needed to ship it back to them. It is a $1300 radio and I regret every penny spent.
