    I'm seeing people complaining about wireless apple car play and android auto Through my personnel experience, your phone battery loses charge quicker on wireless Apple Carplay, so wired one the best option, i use wireless carplay on BMW and on other side keeping the phonecharging.

    I would’ve gone with this, but the lack of wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, and no Maestro compatibility was a dealbreaker for me, so I went with the Pioneer DMH-W4660NEX instead. Shallow-chassis, capacitive touchscreen, HDMI port, Maestro compatibility, and WIRELESS CarPlay and AA capability! That unit was just so much better

  • @slices6500

    Quality Mobile - I think you are being unrealistic on your expectations for a head unit priced at $500. If you want wired Apple Car Play or Android Auto you need to spend about $400 regardless. The Sony AX-5600 adds HDMI which is huge for video options. It also has 2 USB connections so you can add a music stick along with the Spotify option. Is it so hard to plug in your cell phone when you get into your car to activate this head unit? I own a 2018 Toyota Highlander which has a stock radio which only displays audio info. Other vehicle data is displayed on another screen by the speedometer. Don't need iDatalink Maestro to add this to my radio display. I guess an auxilary input would be nice but not a deal breaker. However I agree with the lack of a HD display which is my only gripe. However no other radios including Pioneer and Kenwood offer HD at this price. To add all of these missing items would push this unit to over $1,000 I believe. For $500 I feel this is an excellent unit with a 3 yr. warranty as well. If I am missing something here let me know. However a good review otherwise.
