I couldn't agree more. Too many of them move to digital or a rocker style buttons and it takes too much focus to get to a proper volume selection. Old school knob for the quick turn up. If it aint broke, don't try to fix it.

Nothing better than analog volume knob

I haven't searched too much but I did see the pioneer single din 10.1" unit and I like this Kenwood unit better. For starters it has DAB+ for Australia and it has a volume knob. If you don't have steering wheel controls, changing volume levels is a real pain in the arse with other methods. That's a winner. The tough screen seems to be better as in more responsive than the Pioneer as well. That's my initial impression but obviously I as an audio person I would need to see some more specs and view it in person.

I’m pleased with mines, it’s actually a head turner at auto stores and drive throughs. People always ask what kind of unit is it in awe.

Awesome video. Very excited about this. Thanks for posting the dimensions on your website as well. It is surprising how much room Kenwood wasted with the black bezel.

Great freakn review! I bought the thing solely on ur review alone thanx! Im in the states but nonetheless it was ur video that made me pull the trigger!

Best part is Bringing the HDMI hookup back

Looks good. But I was wondering if the weather widget is available with this head unit ?

What are the total screen dimensions (including bezel and mount) Height width and depth from the surface. Thanks for the video guys

Just got mine for the Van, awesome unit.

I'm gonna buy this now, I needed something I could control my cameras with easily

I would buy it, but I live in a not so good neighborhood and have no garage. ☹

Will the addition of the iDatalink Maestro kit display all of the Hybrid battery information etc with the 2018 Camry Hybrid?

Is this the excelon ? Do you know when that one comes out ?

I have this deck and wish it had track forward and reverse buttons. Besides volume those are the most important. I don’t have steering wheel controls in my classic car.

I hope Kenwood makes a single din like this.

Guys, I super appreciate that you showed an install on a new-ben Camry. Albeit, I'm from the US so my wheel's on the otherwise. So how did you modify the factory brackets? Did you add pieces of metal to the brackets to make them work with aftermarket headunits?

Do any of these type head units work with pre existing 360 birds eye view that come in new tacomas?

Best part is the volume knob hate not having it much easyer for qiuck volume changes, would love to see how it looks in a 2014 2015 hilux

hey mate, have you made a follow up video for the Kenwood head unit yet, showing all the extra features. I've got a 2020 HiAce and looking at fitting this unit.

Looking to put this in my '06 C6 Z06 but worried about its connection with the OEM bose system. Will I need adapters etc? Will I be able to connect to the in car data eg tyre pressure?

Hi @CarbonCarSystem . How do I access the hidden customization menu for this model ? The double and single tapping on the standby page doesn't seems to work. Hope you can help

wish they fit more screen in that body or less bezel...but it looks more smooth than the 8600NEX

Got a question about the new dnx997xr it has built in nav it has inrix for traffic and weather . My question is inrix has not been working since March ? Do you know if it’s back up and working agin ?

Does anyone know how far the screen comes down past the double din opening at its highest setting adjustment? Don't want to buy it to find out it hits my air con knobs below. I've got about 20-25mm of room below the opening. Thanks in advance.

Looks sweet have you installed this in a Holden commodore 2017 ss redline?

hi would like to ask this kenwood dmx9720xds compare to the alpine halo 9/11 which is better ?

Ive got an Android 10.2inch from Sygav (chinese comp) and the looks are 100 times better then this! Mine is built into the dash, has a custom fascia that comes with it factory. Id say this one would have a few more features and better sound and screen quality , but im very happy still. Id think Kenwood would make a much nicer looking device.

I said the same thing. It has about almost an inch of bezel around it. This is 2020, screens should be no more than centimeter from the edge and the screen in some sort of corning gorilla glass. Maybe the 2022 revised version will correct that issue.

Well Kenwood is a audio company at heart and not a display company. You buy Kenwood for audio quality. I have owned high end Alpines, Sony, JVC, Pioneer and Kenwood car stereos and kenwood makes the best for audio quality. Alpine stereos use to be the best but for some reason they been shitty lately.

Do Kenwood do a compatible unit for 2010 Audi A5 replacing the Audi MMI screen..

be nice if there was a decent upgrade unit like this for 2020 Amarok outdated units....

Does it work with 2017 Volkswagen models? As far car functions,. Thank you

Do they have built in satnav an option? I find it convenient to run satnav as my usual screen but it kills the phone battery to use the phone nav for this.

Can you just import the Maestro ADS-MRR + Suburu Harness or does it have to be a local unit so it can be flashed? Every advertisement mentions it but there doesn't appear to be a way to get the Maestro's in Aus.

Can you install that in 2017 sr hilux and how much cheers

Can i put this in my nissan rouge select 2014 it has a 7 inch port that 10 inch is too big right ?

I am not an expert with stereos, how hard would it be for me to install this in my pick up?

Will this fit in my 2003 madza miata ? How do you know what it cars it will fit into ? I can't find that info in the kenwood web site .

Has anyone used the idatalink maestro as it's not on their website as a compatible head unit yet

Hi i have a 2015 VW multi van, can you have both Visual parking sensors and reversing camera, i have been told VW does not allow to have both visual, So audio Parking Sensors and Visual Reversing Camera , is this correct or what can be done to make it work.

Maestro is KING. If you car supports it, you would be doing it wrong to not use maestro over any other data interface company. Sorry, pac, metra, crux, navtv, ect.... We don't quote anyone any other product but maestro if it's an option in there car. Glad to see Australia is getting it now.

How much it costs ...and from where should I buy

Can you connect to the internet via WiFi through chrome web browser and maybe download some apps and install them. That would be awesome.

A few questions: 1 - does is quick boot after the first boot like recent Sony units? eg, does it do a sleep mode and wake quicker the second time you start the car? If so, how quick? 2 - I noticed there's camera recording. Where does that record to and does it have some sort of incident button to capture an incident? Is it possible to use in "sentry mode" while parked? 3 - Will it boot into Apple Carplay if a phone is connected by USB? ( or an option to do this). I use Carplay 99% of the time and don't want to have to click an icon every time I get into the car. 4 - Can the boot warning screen be disabled? 5 - Can you customise the boot loading screen? Looks really good. Seriously considering it as alternative to Sony XAV-AX8000.
