Dasaita Head Unit for 5th Gen 4Runner Honest Review - Apple CarPlay Stereo for 4Runner 2014-2019

Автокөліктер мен көлік құралдары

If you came to my channel looking for parody videos of my favorite KZread creators, this vide is not for you. Check out the playlists in my channel and you will see what you are looking for. Thanks for stopping by!
Here is my honest review of the Dasaita 10.25" Android 11 Car Radio for Toyota 4Runner 2014-2019.
It looked like a dream come true. Reviews I saw on online gave it postive feedback. Even on other people's videos, the screen looked amazing---a beautiful high resolution screen with vivid color and graphics. The Apple CarPlay was said to be "seemless" by some. It fits perfectly into the 4Runner Dash and has a fantastic OEM look.
My exeperience was different. Let me tell you about it. Let's just say the grass is not always greener on the other side.

    Thanks for this video mate, ive been considering upgrading my head unit on a 2011 mitsubishi pajero and seen all good reviews on you tube on the cheaper version im looking at. But ive been holding back on it because its common for the cheaper tech items to glitch with no explanation or reason. Its good you got a refund on your unit. Look forward to seeing what you finally install, cheers

They all seem to have glitches! thanks for the honest review

It can loosen up easily if not tightened correctly. Only thing I did to it was I bought an adapter so I use my vehicles GPS antena instead of the provided one.

I also have a 2019 Hyundai Tucson and the head unit in that completely blows The Toyota head unit out of the water. Out of all the models of vehicles that Toyota has, I can't believe that they can't make a really good head unit that goes into multiple models

    I agree. I had so many annoying bugs. And then I had a default setting upon install that I could not figure out how to disable. An annoying female voice would non stop tell me that I was exceeding the speed limit. This was a default “feature.” The person who decided this should be a feature needs to lose his/her job. Gone back to OEM for now.
