Single DIN Car Stereo Receiver with 7 Character LCD Display by Jensen - MPR419Q

ReevesRacing: Has a pretty bad hum/white noise when using blue tooth but pretty drowned out when cranking up the music. That's about the only downfall I see! Bluetooth connectivity is lighting fast. Sound is better than the older Pioneer I removed. Fast charges my Samsung S21 just great. Phone stays put 95% of the time. I have had it fly off when hitting a really big bump. So far I'm really happy with the purchase at $99.

nasosufan: I’ve only used a couple days so far but the install, setup, and Bluetooth connection have been great. Persons on receiving end of the phone calls have told me they hear me just fine (even with Diesel engine noise). Improvement to music audio from my last Jensen head unit. I have not used the app feature yet. Wireless phone charger extension is definitely the cool feature. Charge pad has a tension spring clamp to hold phone in place. The vibrations and shaking of the truck are held in check. It does charge my phone quickly.

Steering wheel wireless buttons would be my only con so far. It worked the first and third day, but not on the second. Could be the battery in it. At this point I’m just going to stick that in the glove box.

I recommend this unit. If I have any issues, I’ll do an update to the post.

Update: Have been using for several months now. Never did retry the steering wheel attachment, honestly don’t need it. Bluetooth always connects to my phone with no issues playing music and also no problems with connectivity during phone calls. Everybody that rides in my truck loves the charge pad and wants to get one.

Jester_84-07: Bought this to replace the stock stereo on my 2007 saturn ion because it recently had the battery replaced which caused the stereo to lose communication with the bcm, would have had to have a dealership reprogram it so I decided to upgrade instead.

So far I love this thing! The wireless charging pad is freaking amazing! Frees up my 12v outlet for other things and also keeps dash space clear of phone mounts, so it's a win-win. I also love the steering wheel remote. It does work for me, but I did notice the little Bluetooth module on the side has to be pointed at the radio in order to work consistently, so I had to angle the remote mount on my steering wheel so it's canted a bit. Not a huge deal, but I wish they made it send a bit stronger signal. Bluetooth connectivity on the stereo works great, connects to my phone very quickly and signal is consistent.

As for cons, I can only think of a few;

- there is no auto-dim feature using the car's wiring, and no option to change the display brightness whatsoever. Not a big deal to me, as it's not blindingly bright at night, but it would still have been a very nice feature.

M. Brady: Having an older 2003 Chevy Express, I really appreciate the unique wireless charging pad this stereo offers! I’ve never had a great place to put the phone when using navigation etc and now it is right where I can see it and it stays charged, all without wires! The pad seems sturdy and the rest of the features of the unit are easy to use.

The sound quality and options this offers at this price point are excellent, though don’t expect extraordinary features. It is a great upgrade for a vehicle that is as old as mine and time will tell on how well this holds up.

Only feature it doesn’t have is subwoofer rca outputs if that’s something you like to have. I used the rear rca outputs to hookup a small powered sub on my van which is an acceptable workaround.

Perfect upgrade for an older vehicle to add 21st century usability.

kimberly1273: I am super super happy with the stereo! Box contained everything I needed for the install except a screwdriver. I was skeptical after I ordered it due to not knowing if it would work with my Samsung Note 9...works PERFECTLY! I downloaded the JLink app, but did not need to, bluetooth works great without the app. BUT with my SXM the music did not display, may need the app for that.

Called my daughter just by pushing the button and saying her name without doing anything extra at all. Pretty important when you still drive a stick!

The charging pad opens/closes by the push of a button and will not close if the phone restraint is still open, very nice detail. The tray holds my phone pretty firmly and the charging was faster than I thought it would be. You do not need your phone on the pad for the bluetooth to work, just an FYI. I did not use the remote, forgot about it. Lol.

Sound seems great (replacing speakers tomorrow). All-in-all I am stoked about this stereo! GREAT JOB JENSEN!!!!
