    I wonder if this headunit is good. Price seems good and unit sounds like it has good specs. I was wondering if anyone here has tried it. I don’t feel like getting an aftermarket headunit that I gotta do wiring for, I know it’s not hard because I have done it for my previous vehicles but I just don’t have that time if I can get something plug and play that would work with no issues.
    My current headunit has no problem but I do like Apple CarPlay

    Me personally I wouldn't waste the money on cheap junk like that.

    It’s not really a necessity for me but I just want something with Apple CarPlay so I don’t have to use my phone for Google maps with looking at it. If it’s decent it’s okay. I don’t need something spectacular but something that just works well.

    I think more cores might be better right plus it has 4gb of ram.

    Crutchfield has really good prices on better units. I saw a JVC with Carplay for $299 for example.

    Not that one specifically, but plenty of reviews on here of Daisata, Joying etc. In general I'd say most of the time they're decent/good, probably have lower QC than big name brands, more likelihood of poor instructions/unidentified wires/connectors, UI quirks etc. Other thing people are divided on is potential for spyware etc. Kind of one of those is the gamble worth the "risk" situations, i.e. spend ~$175 on a cheap one and maybe have to finagle some quirks, or spend ~$300 and have a higher chance of everything working correctly and installing easier. If it works, which again, it probably will, you'll feel like a deal scoring king, but if it doesn't, you'll feel like a dunce.

    I personally wouldn't use one for some of the aforementioned reasons, but that doesn't mean others haven't used them with great success.
