AboutBit Bluetooth Single Din Car Stereo - In-Dash MP3 Player for Your Vehicle

Ian Bowman: This is the second one of these radios I've installed. The first being in my winter beater '98 Blazer, which is still going strong 1 year later, and this one in my Square body S10 that's been in for a month now with no issue.

Bluetooth connects fast, and have literally never had a single issue out of it. It's no powerhouse; it'll push 4 speakers *OK*, but if you're buying for sound quality, is a +/- $20 radio really your first choice?

Chances are, I'll wind up buying another one of these in the future.

slivka: All these cheap head units tend to have same functionality hidden behind different often overstayed and convoluted interfaces. This one is refreshingly straight forward. Works great. Easy to use. Sounds good but it is plugged into an amplifier. The volume button is a bit too easy to press accidentally, which throws you into a menu, but I'm knit picking here.

ShayShay: In review I must make these points
1.The install wasn't particularly hard but this doesn't use mounting screws and the dash had to but cut to fit the radio.
2.The sound distortion starts at 30/40 but otherwise it's pretty good sound
3. I wish the radio would switch to the clock like the others after a while but it doesn't it displays time in the left corner
4. Wish I could adjust brightness but unlike other reviews I'm able to see it clearly.
5. The user manual doesn't give information on how to install radio so I had to use common sense
6. The bud quality isn't the best compared to brand named units but seems ok

Overall its a good radio when u consider the price and what your getting for $20 would recommend to anyone looking for a budget radio or a simple replacement to faulty factory unit

Rodney: This radio is better than the one in my Lexus.

Eric: Bought this to replace an SWM-520 that was a complete and utter disappointment. That thing would constantly and randomly lose it's settings for no apparent reason. Really stinks when listening to "speaking-only" type audio like audio books or teaching lessons as you lose your place in the file, plus you have to find that file again too.

I still wanted a car stereo with SD card support so got this one. Thankfully it used the same wiring harness as the piece of junk did so all I had to do was swap radios.

Been using this one for about 2 months now and it works great. No loss of settings is huge for me! It also shows me that my wiring harness was fine, it was totally that junk radio.

The only two downsides for this one to me (compared to the junk) is that the built-in EQ sounds are not as good, especially the classical one that I was using for my "speaking only" recordings I was listening to. On the junk radio that setting sounded really good, one this one not so much. I can't find any other EQ settings that work for those either.

The other issue is the SD card sticks out a little too much for my comfort, I wish it would go in...

Rebekka Kent: This was the best rated stereo for under $30 on Amazon. Literally one other bad review.
It arrived. Looked perfect.
It stopped working for no reason.
IN LESS THAN 48 HOURS
And we have looked it over to find no cause.
We installed. Nothing new to us. Never had issues with other radios or cars
It worked great. Set up BT and stations and changed color to white to keep from rainbow. Then we got home from errands and a white backlight stayed on after the car was off. We made sure to turn it off before the car like the manual stated.
The light wouldnt go away. We tried resetting it over and over and eventually started pressing random buttons to try to get it turned off. Nothing worked. Then suddenly it turned off when the key came out the ignition. Like WTF
Went to work next day, came home. It worked great
Went up the street and on the way home it turned off for no reason, i didnt even turn the car off. All blacked out. Wont turn on, no blown fuses inside it or my car. No bad wiring.
I'm PISSED. I threw the box and stuff away now I'll have to spend twice the amount for a different radio
