7-Inch Full HD Touch Screen Portable Car Radio Receiver with Carpuride Technology

Mike: Update November 2023
i have a second unit from the company in order to attempt to correct the aux issue. Full disclosure: They asked for a 5 star review in exchange for the second unit. I told them I was update the review as I saw fit, but would only give it 5 starts if I thought it warranted a 5 star review. In reality, I'd give it 4.5 stars if I could. The new unit was identical and didn't fix anything. They sent me a firmware file, but the firmware was identical to what was already installed on the screen.

I was able to use an inline headphone amplifier for the aux port issue. The sound quality was DRAMATICALLY IMPROVED using the aux port.

We recently purchased a Subaru Outback and installed the extra unit I had into that vehicle with zero issues and using the aux out from the screen straight into the aux in port on the car. Sound quality is great.

Phone call volume is MUCH quieter than music. There is no volume control for phone calls vs music.

The display brightness is still great, but sometimes too bright at night. It does have an auto adjustment, but it is very quick to increase the brightness but not as quick to reduce...

Noe Longoria: My 2011 Ford Taurus Limited is a great car with a lousy rado and no video screen. Actually, the blue tooth enabled radio is fine, but the bezel for an aftermarket radio is the same price of a radio and I would have lost some button and knob functionality. This Carpuride system was a perfect solution and a breeze to install. It works perfectly for me because the phone pairs with the radio via bluetooth. The Carpuride Carplay function works perfectly with my iPhone. The screen is bright and responsive. To pipe in stereo sound from my iPhone, I connected my phone to the Carpuride, then connected a 3.5mm sound wire to the radio auxillary port for handsfree calling, music, etc. (all included). If your radio has no bluetooth, you will definetley need the 3.5mm connection on your radio because the tiny speaker on the Carpuride is weak, and you want great sound pumping through your car radio and speakers.

Dandy AikenDandy Aiken: I have been looking for CarPlay solutions for our 2013 and 2009 Toyota Priuses for years. This 2023 model is an easy solution to adding CarPlay and does a better job of mating than earlier versions (per other user reviews). It took a few tries and re-reading the instructions to get it set up correctly, but it wasn't that hard and works just like a factory installed CarPlay. I am using an Apple iPhone 12 Pro, and my 2013 Prius has Bluetooth, but I use the Phone's Bluetooth to connect via Bluetooth to the Carpuride device. I then used a phone cable to get sound from the Carpuride into my car's audio system. There were a few other settings that I had to adjust (screen brightness, turning off the internal Carpuride speaker), but it now works flawlessly. One point at least on my iPhone (iOS 16.6) the default setting for CarPlay is OFF (haven't used CarPlay in a year; it used to be default on). Once I turned this off, all of the functions worked, and all of the apps that support CarPlay came up on the screen (Audible, MLB, Sirius XM, etc). The Phone still works for phone calls over the car's bluetooth mic/speaker, but you can place calls from the Carpuride...
