JENSEN J1CA7 7" Touchscreen Double DIN Car Stereo Media Receiver

Charlie J.: Worked great with no problems. Only thing I don’t like is that the volume is very touchy 1 notch is a lot. I wish the apple play was blue tooth. It does work well but you have to have the usb cable plugged in. All in all great unit.

DLRamosDLRamos: This is the day 3 review, I’ll come back in a month or so to do an update.

This was a super easy install. This unit worked with my existing brackets in my 07 Xterra. All I needed to do was shave off the top part of the extra faceplate. And it covered up the hole on the bottom nicely.

Unit functions just fine, everything is snappy, especially in CarPlay mode. Idk about other systems, but when you first set it up, don’t be alarmed if the Bluetooth disconnects when you plug in CarPlay, that’s on purpose. But when I disconnect the wire, it switches to Bluetooth quickly. This is NOT* the wireless unit. I’m ok with that because I’d rather my phone be charging too.

Don’t forget to plug in the antenna. I think the unit uses it as part of the grounding, because the unit would shut off if I unplugged it. (I didn’t care about radio, but I guess I do now).

The CarPlay/Aauto plug is a simple USB A female, so bring your own cord and find a spot to plug it in. I knocked out one of my empty slots, not pretty but functional.

The only time I’ve seen the device slow down is when you scroll left to get to settings. But no other...

James B.James B.: It's a very nice headunit. Android auto works great. I have car stream installed plays YouTube perfect. That only thing I don't love is that it's a wired version and you really need a data transfer cable for it to work right. It also doesn't seem to start up when plugged in unless you unlock the phone first. But I do really like it.

Parchado: Es un autoestero bonito y funcional, aunque su calidad de sonido es muy pobre, yo tenía a Jensen en mejor concepto, pero me dijo el tecnico que no es de la calidad de las otras marcas lideres, que está un poquito abajo. De hecho lo voy a regresar.

Nick Approved: Installation was pretty straightforward with the right harness, sold separately. Apps and controls are nice and responsive and all features work as described. Getting CarPlay to work was pretty easy. Awesome addition to upgrade the stock limited stereo

Mick@OCMick@OC: It is a no frills unit which is fine for me. No custom skins or ability to change display colors. But the basic features are there for apple car play and phone Bluetooth which is all I need. However two weeks into it the sound started to cut out for stretches of times and all of a sudden come back. As I looked back at the reviews it appears that this is happening to other buyers. Now dealing with Jensen (over 30 days purchase) to try and get the unit replaced and since it is happening to others hoping to replace to a different model. Will still cost me to have it pulled out and replaced.
