Thanks for testing these budget units... It's nice finding a diamond in the rough!! These are so many though! I'm still looking for something comparable to the ATOTO units but with a volume knob. I don't why these ever disappeared as they are about perfect. (Lots of Auto manufacturers are going back to these for obvious reasons.) I hope you'll be able to test some other units that have at least 2g of ram and android auto. Thanks for your reviews!
Thank you for testing these units and doing these reviews. I was going to buy this unit, but decided to get an Atoto A6 PF, based on your review. Also I believe 2GB of RAM isn't enough by itself. The firmware also needs to be tweaked for each model. Probably why the Atoto androids run so well.
Hi. What would you consider to be the minimum configuration and specification for a good example of this type of head unit (android). Would you say 2Gb RAM and 32Gb ROM?? And what about clock speed and number of cores - I see some are Octa-cores now with 2.4GHz clock speeds?
I see from the link that you bought the weakest version, 2GB of RAM, it's possible that the 4GB version would be much faster. Let's be honest, nowadays 4GB of RAM is essential. Like left, greetings from Poland Ps. Scania is the best :)
In relates to the sub line, to link it to my active subwoofer id need a splitter unless i ran it through the rca preout but would a splitter cable work leaving the pre outs as spare for a set of 6x9 speakers
Hey man love your channel! So glad I found it. I'm trying to find an Android auto head unit to put in my Saab NG900. Thing is my steering wheel doesn't have volume control so a head unit with a knob is a must. Do you have any recommendations? Thanks!
There's plenty of options. If you're after a decent Android based head unit, a 7 inch Joying would do the job with physical buttons. If you have seen something, I can always let you know what I think
@@SaabUnleashed Thanks! I looked into Joying a little more and I'm liking what I see. I was recommended the Sony XAV AX100/1000. They look nice but are also suspiciously cheap.
The very cheapest ones (less than $100) are generally the same product hardware and software with a slightly different launcher sold by different companies. However, the more expensive units will still look the same, but use completely different hardware and software, they will have a much better specification and software that is ultimately better designed. Ultimately, this is the reason why my channel exists, so that I can show you how they differ.
I' ve bought the Navi for my Citreon c1, it works way better that the one you 've tested, dont know why but it works almost like the Standard one that i have in my golf 7 🤷♂️
would of been nice to see how fast it was using phone mirroring and wether that would be faster as the phones doing all the hard work? that's all I wanted it for so now I have no idea sigh :(
dear tester! This radio does not include an internal Wi-Fi antenna! The Wi-Fi and Bluetooth antenna is built into the connector of the rear camera! if you don't connect it, the wifi signal is very weak!
@@SaabUnleashed This is a solution born out of necessity, the motherboard is shaded from the front by the LCD, and the back of the radio is metal (this cools the processor and the audio amplifier as well), the two together form a faraday cage, so there is no internal Wifi/Bluetooth antenna. But the manufacturers should really draw attention to this. 🤝🏻
For a video on a head unit the sound is appalling. Background " music" sucks and is distracting. And the sound is so harsh! That cymbal being wacked constantly is absolutely atrocious!!! Come on. Pick up your act.

Debating on getting an joying unit for my Nissan Murano
Christ! I’d be pulling my hair out waiting for this to load up, definitely worth spending a bit more imo.
What would be the most recommended at the moment? something that is fast

Does it support video output?

Are all these budget units made by the same company cos they all look same from front and behind.

Cheap and cheerful. Not for me, but can imagine a great option for people on a tight budget to get in their car.
Does anyone know how to enter the boot recovery menu? I searched the internet, but none of the methods I found work.
Thanks man because of U a was able to fit Android stereo to my Saab AERO 93 . Many thanks
Did you need to buy anything else to make it work?
it may not be the fastest thing in the world but im impressed.
I' ve bought the Navi for my Citreon c1, it works way better that the one you 've tested, dont know why but it works almost like the Standard one that i have in my golf 7 🤷♂️
maybe his is the 2gb version, they do a 4gb one too

aww boo hoo
dear tester! This radio does not include an internal Wi-Fi antenna! The Wi-Fi and Bluetooth antenna is built into the connector of the rear camera! if you don't connect it, the wifi signal is very weak!
If that's true, that is ridiculous :D
@@SaabUnleashed The next time you test a cheaper head unit like this, look at it. There are 2 small antennas on the camera input connector. ;)
@@klapkagyorgy7998 on one hand this is great information, thank you. On the other hand, it's frustrating that they don't make this obvious haha

Buy cheap buy twice
i had that jenson amp

I'm terribly disappointed to read that the video didn't meet your high standards.
Love the reply! 🤣😂🤣@@SaabUnleashed
