The best review, thank you so much 👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽

incredible review, thanks a lot.

Thanks for the review! Which one should I get for a 2016 Mercedes CLA?

There is a button on the autocast which you can press to reboot it without unplugging it and plugging it back in. This will also allow you to choose a second phone from the list at boot up.

Great review. Does both of these items work with 2022 Nissan Murano and 2023 Nissan Sentra SR??

Nice basic comparison. I don't have these two units but have tried several others. Each works basically the same. They're fine for basic functions such as music and even navigation. The problems start when i try to make phone calls or join meetings while navigating. I have yet to find a Carplay adapter that can handle this.

Faster connection for carlinkit sealed the deal. Bought a 5.0 based on your video. Works well

What you think, carlinkit 5 or ottocast?

Thanks for watching. Both products are available below: Ottocast: amzn.to/3SWO5Fr CarlinKit: amzn.to/3MYnYd9

How does navigation work with Carlin, and does it work with the Toyota steering wheel buttons, and voice control?

Awesome review. Thanks for the thoroughness! Did you experience any lag or reaction delay time when touching an app and having the app respond with either device?

Actually the Carlinkit 4.0 supports both CarPlay and AndroidAuto.

exactly, i have the 4.0 as well. Been in my last 3 cars and i only have a Android phone. Work perfectly every time, except these days, takes a bit longer to boot up. Looking at the 5.0 unit

Thanks for the review, I bought carlinkit v3, this one has the android system built in version 9 or android 9, so will see how it goes using my galaxy fold 4, using this carlink to my ford maverick.

I have a 22 Ford Maverick, is there a latency/delay problem?

would those work on a 2018 camry

The thing is you cant use your steering wheel buttons thats not good to fast forward songs and volume etc

Nice review, you mention carlinkit doesnt support android auto, yes they do, i have 4.0 and 5.0 and my Pixel connects to both of them.

im using carlinkit 5.0 with audi s3 2018 and the response time is terrible. when I press a button (like pause or forward) within an audio app on carplay it takes about 2 seconds. this is not the case when using a cable, so clearly a device problem. even though they say the response time is 300ms its not true. idk if that is the same with the ottocast or if it really depends on the connected car.

I have Amazon carplay adapter from COVS DIRECT ($60). Connects similarly to the two brands mentioned here. Sound quality is same as wired. Only issue I found with “LAG” is watching KZread. The audio is behind. Voice doesn’t match the person’s lips. This is the lag I’m talking about. It’s annoying but not a dealbreaker. How are these brands with that? And would the GPS lag as well. These are the two issues I’m hoping to see resolved with these adapters with either a better brand or firmware updates in the future.

That's an issue with ALL wireless carplay adapters

U can’t back out of CarPlay on the Carlinkit?

how about setting it to auto connect then turning off Bluetooth on the phone and opening the Bluetooth of the other phone?

If I have a third phone or replace my phone on the Ottocast U2x, can I reset the list of paired phones or remove an old phone?

It doesn't. My car uses a regular USB to connect to the phone for wired Carplay and Android Auto.

They is notocable delay when using wheel controls on Carlinkit :(

Ottocast works when choosing between android and iPhone but what about when my spouse and I both have iPhones? Will the unit show a menu with the 2 iPhones to choose from or does that only work when one phone is android and one phone is iPhone?

have you looked at the motorola equivalent?

I looked into it but it doesn't work for my situation because i need both wireless Apple Carplay and AA. From reviews I've seen, the Motorola can be a little laggy and it's actually not a Motorola product. Motorola just licensed their name to the actual manufacturer.

I bought this product, navigation and music control delay is terrible. And I wonder why people don’t review this device while they’re driving to showcase navigation and other controls’ responsiveness, which is not acceptable for me. I will go back to use my cable and return this to seller.
