- The new KENWOOD dmx1057xr is here and packs a huge list of feature. Msrp is 1200 bucks though so this is not a cheap unit. Let’s dive in and check out the features.

For you not to be a car audio guy, I say you did great on explaining everything. I like the dashcam setup, but I already have a front and rear setup along with the factory backup cam. But compared to the professional installer vids I've watched, it's great to get the info from everyday user.
I have a 19 tundra great to hear all steering controls remain operational.Your enthusiasm is appreciated since I ordered one last night.cheers
Just got this installed in my truck yesterday, seeing this video validates my choice on this. Thanks for sharing
I've always been a fan of Kenwood , radio is wonderful. Thanks for the video
Dude, props for your video....was on the fence and now you convinced me!
Just found this unit tonite and I like it a lot. Good man on the Tundra. I drive a 16 Tacoma and this is my first choice for aftermarket. Thanks for sharing
I just bought one for my 2011 Nissan Titan. I really like it because I can connect my phone wireless and put all the pictures up and listen to the songs that I like on TH-cam. Thank you for the video and look forward to seeing more.
TH-cam works from iPhone? Like screen mirror? Omg please answer! Hurry lol wanna buy
Android is life...
Ima be driving around with a cord in my iPhone lol prolly go android soon! Wow
I just installed it in My car last night. I learned the hard way. Read the directions completely. Sadly I gotta pull it all back out again. I need to get idatalink maestro programed. I haven't owned a laptop in years. But what I have running now is great and I still haven't gotten all the features going yet. I put it in my 2012 Chevy Traverse.
Awesome video on everything explaining about it. Mine is getting installed next week.
Thanks for all the guidance and tips. I installed this morning and it took about 4 hours... For some reason my car was wired differently than their diagrams. Crutchfield stay with me to the end. It's working great.. Will need to adjust the screen height as now I can't see the temperature. Lol
Happy to help. Hope you enjoy it. So far I’ve had no problems at all. Might be the best head unit I’ve had
Very well presented and articulated!!! 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
Thanks for this video and answering other folks questions that I was going to ask myself! I was looking at the DNR1007, until I found the DMX1057. I can't justify spending an extra $400 for navigation, that I will probably never use. Also, seeing this in a Tundra ( I own a 2017 TRD Pro), makes me more comfortable getting one.
Mine just came in after 7 months of waiting ✋️ I'll see how I like it Saturday for the install
Great video! Thanks to you, this is on top of my list but there's also the Kenwood DMX1037S. I have no idea what the difference is lol
Thanks so much for the great info 👍🏼
The year subscription to traffic. The volt output to the rca amps. And a few other small things.
@@oneluckybullet2135 DMX1037s only comes with a 1 year warranty also, I called Kenwood HQ's.
Excellent job
nice functions hate the wide bezel too on backside but Kenwood has great audio maybe next years version
Nice bro I'm trying to get my hands on one
Just had this installed on my 2014 f150! Love it so far but need to play around with it to learn everything.Great Vedio and thanks for the help!
Happy to help. Hope you enjoy. Mines still going strong. No issues or anything compared to the pioneer I had
Great review. Ive had this head unit for 3 months now and im loving it. Have you tried connecting connecting a roku or firestick via hdmi? I tried it but all i get is no hdmi found.
I have a feeling the 1057xr would look funny in my 05 civic. I went with the 957xr but I haven’t installed it yet...
Putting in my 17 Cruze lmao! Going to be up in windshield! CANT WAIT SON
I just got this unit for my tundra also! I got a alpine unit but I don’t really like it! I waited 7 month due to chip shortage ! Have not install yet because lack of time! Since I already got mastro RR installed maybe just plug and play 😃
Great video! Looks really cool. When you go in reverse does it automatically pull up the rear camera view? It integrates with your onboard Tundra features like phone calls, etc…?
I'll do my own video after I get my idatalink maestro mmr2 programmed and install in my car with radio working with it. Right now I just radio and Bluetooth working
esham976 let me know if you need any help
looks like this upload is a little over a year old, you still enjoying this head unit?
Been looking for one, but they are out of stock, or overpriced at the moment ($1599) - I also have a tundra so I appreciate seeing how it fits and the steering controls are intact
Still good years later? Is the button backlighting always cycling through colours or is that a custom setting? I, personally, would want a solid colour.
How is the reliability/stability of the wireless CarPlay connection? Also, is the off axis viewing quite good?
How’s the sound quality compare to the stock unit? Did you bypass the stock amp or you kept everything stock?
Here for the Screen mirroring
What's the actual display area minus the black bezel?
I’m considering buying one. How’s the radio since your video posting? How’s the screen; does it get washed out by the sun or too bright at night?
I may be attempting the install this weekend. Thanks for your help! Did you have to run a microphone our were you able to keep the factory mic?
You will have to run a mic. I ran it over to the instrument panel and have it near the steering wheel
@@oneluckybullet2135 last question...I promise lol. Did you have to remove panels other than the center dash for the ODBII or can than be run without removing kick panels/ other stuff? Also how long did the install take? I like to over prepare lol
I didn’t remove anything except the ac panel and usb the panel. Took around two hours for everything. Was actually super easy
I assume you used the maestro harness. Did you need to plug any RCA jacks for sound? I have 2 on the harness that may go to the radio?
@@diablonyc2 if they are white and another color you need to cut them make sure you follow the instructions on the idata site to make sure it matches
Thank you for the review , do you mind sharing what other components are needed for the installation on the tundra ? Did you need a specific harness to get it to work with the steering buttons? Does it use the mic from the truck or do you need to wire an external one ?
You have to use an external one. I used the idata rr2 version. The USB adapter. The antenna adapter. And the sirus xm antenna adapter.
@@oneluckybullet2135 thank you
So all I need is I data r22 I don’t care about xmradio
I got mine installed in my 19 tundra on Friday. I love it but I’m still trying to figure out it’s full potential basically just been using wireless car play.
this kills the Alpine/Pioneer flaoters
Can you use the mirroring on apple I phone
@@liljerm22 to use mirroring on iPhone you have to use it via hdmi. Wireless mirroring doesn’t seem to work on iPhone.
Did you have to use any harness to get everything working ?
Yes the entire idata mastreo harness. Definitely makes it easy
Just got one put in truck few days ago, it is sweet. I do have a few questions are
How to get weather, i have iphone and see the icon for weather but not sure how to access the info. Also trying to charge my iphone while using apple carplay, not charging , may be my cord. And how do u vet mirroring for iphone on screen, i had them install that feature too. Thx
Awesome video. I'm about to pull the trigger on this unit for my 08 Tundra. Can you run an HDMI extension cable then plug in a fire stick or Roku for viewing?
Yes you can. You will need to bypass the ebrake though to view it while moving.
@@oneluckybullet2135 awesome. I'm thinking I can use Samsung smart view as well to mirror my screen which should allow video watching etc...🤔
Just got this unit and I’m trying to figure out how to put the weather display
You mentioned that you also had the DDX9907XR. Clearly, this one is nicer but how did you like the 9907? I like all of the feature but thinking I'd like to stick with in dash.
It’s good. For me I like the 1057. I put the 9907 in my daughters car
I know it’s at 10.1 what’s the size is the screen from one end to the other
Great video. I’ll be installing into a ‘21 Tundra shortly. Did you need the SiriusXM adapter or does it use a connection already in in the Tundra? I have the JBL audio. Thanks!
You will need one. The built in one is in the unit itself. The antenna will work but you will need an adapter
@@oneluckybullet2135 Right on....thank you. Cheers!
Good review. Does it dim when you dim your factory gauges? If not can you dim it down a lot for night driving?
Yes you can. It also has an auto dimming mode too
Great review! I have a question. How is the glare? This unit is suppose to have that bonding agent that makes glare not as noticeable. Could you tell?
So far so good. I haven’t noticed any glare and I travel a lot
@@oneluckybullet2135 awesome thanks. I know on most in dash screens, you cant see it in the sun. And I was curious as to how good the technology they used in the screen was.
I’m looking to get one how many inches does it stick from the dash I want to see if I have enough space for my 2007 Infiniti g35 Sedan
Where did you put the microphone(location)?thanks
the bypass is only t-tapping the light green wire to the ground wire
What kind of backup camera did you install and are you able to view it while you're driving
I’m using the stock backup one and I installed the KENWOOD front camera. Yes you can view them while you are driving.
Hey man. Great video. What’s the dash cam model that you use? Also, is there a way to play TH-cam videos and surf the net?
Use a FireTV or Roku on the HDMI input. Works great.
Did it come with that nickel brush base piece
What does the knob feel like? Cheap plastic or metal?
I installed mine yesterday. Nice unit! I know this is going to sound silly, but how do you actually turn the HD radio OFF?
I don’t think you can. I don’t use it. I use sirus or carplay
When you start vehicle and radio comes on does it give you a warning not to drive while watching videos?
I just gotten this install. My weather saying no data available
Have the same vehicle and same radio. Can’t figure out my tire pressures. Any insight on that??
Same having this issue just had this installed at car toys
how can you use the factory microphone built into the vehicle if possible? if not, does it come with a mic you can place within the cabin?
also with the datalink maestro, what features have you seen added to its functionality?
It uses a different mic that I have hooked up behind the screen. As for functionality I haven’t noticed any thing new. Still has customizable data screens with info for your vehicle. I did do a software update on it a few days ago.
& what input does the microphone go into, the 3.5mm on the rear connections side of the stereo?
Correct. The system comes with a mic for hookup
@@MahomeboyMyGOAT it’s labeled mic. Look closely
Can u browse internet and fire TH-cam from the unit?
Does it have a TH-cam app to play videos and does it have google play store on it?
The wireless Android Auto doesn't pickup where you left off. It sounds good as a selling point, but imo the wired is better. You have to press Android Auto, and select what you want but the wireless doesn't seem to remember where you left off. It is too many extra steps with the wireless. The wireless is always connected, but you have to select everything like you are starting over. He says you get what you pay for, but my 1057xr is doing random reboots.
Quick question for you are you using the stock backup camera?if you are does the image kind not clear,im asking because I installed the dnr1007xr and when I put in reverse I dont have a clear image
I installed the 1057 in my Highlander Limited using the stock camera and it is pixelated too. It works good enough to see what is behind you.
Have a 2019 Highlander - does your truck have the birds eye view? Does this support that feature?
It does support it and side camera tech as well
Does your truck see dirt roads at all? Wonder how the sturdy the big screen is when driving on a back road.
yeah I drive alot off road and no issues with bounce or anything.
I want to know how you got your Google maps up on as part of the screen and werr able to have other stuff on there as well. I can't figure that out on mine. It's at 6:51.
That’s Apple CarPlay. Wireless. Home Screen of it allows music and maps to run at same time. Go in settings of iPhone. General. CarPlay. Then customize.
How can I get the weather 5 year subscription?
Maybe 2021 model will have a smaller bezel
No, this model for lifeeeeeeeeeee
Which model is the dash cam?
How it doing so far?
Includ dahscam and installation
How do you play video on it factory?
I have a 2017 nissan sentra sv. Will my factory back up camera and steering wheel controls still work if Install this?
yes just make sure you get the proper hookup kit for it
Nice setup. What model is the camera you're using?
It’s the KENWOOD drv 520
oneluckybullet thanks!
ive got a brand new 2021 tundra trd sport. all jacked up and renecked out lol. so my question i sdid you have to use the data link maestro to get everything to work for your sirius fm and blue tooth and gps module and for the steering wheel
Yea I did. Easy install
@@oneluckybullet2135 did you have to update everything when you did it
@@xXx_Mason_xXx no I didn’t. I did update the unit a few weeks ago for the new firmware
hows you’re unit working any insight would be greatly appreciated.
I just won one of these
you won the sweepstakes?
Which is better? Pioneer DMH-WT8600NEX or this Kenwood DMX1057XR and why is better? More Sound Quality or what
I would go with KENWOOD. The pioneer has Alexa built in but the problem is the sluggish ui. The KENWOOD has more sound options and allows more control.
Everyone always says no one uses dvds 😭😭😭 but I use them religiously when my phone is KIA or has trouble connecting as things often do
The 1057 has an HDMI input that you can plug a DVD player in. I use a Fire TV stick with my phone as a hotspot.
How you get the weather to show I have the same radio and my weather doesn’t show
The company they contracted for that app went out of business. It will never work.
Thanks for review well done but I think looks too big
Too sexi u mean?
all the features are great but how does it sound
Sounds great. My tundra has the amplifier and jbl audio. This helps push it and sounds great
Would you recommend this unit or the pioneer dmh wt7600nex?
i had the 8600 next and while i liked it at first, this kenwood blows it away. better screen and faster touch. better ui and easier to work with
can I put his in my nissan rouge select 2014 it has a 7 inch screen just want to know if I can put it
Yes you can. You will need an install kit
Quick qestion for you.im planing to install the same radio,how is the sound with stock amp and stock speakers?
Actually makes a big improvement. I just recently switched out my stock speakers to alpine components.
@@oneluckybullet2135 do you have a aftermarket amplifier or stock amp
How far does the screen stick out beyond the dash face?
Maybe two inches
How long is the boot time to music? My 1007XR takes 20-25 seconds!!!!!!!!!!!!
Was leaning toward the Alpine Halo 9 until reviews came back that revealed unit had VERY poor resolution. You said upcoming Halo 11 is but 420? That’s horrible. This KENWOOD 1057XR is HD. Can you see the screen clearly? Is the font size adjustable? Are you using KENWOOD’s optional Maestro data link? If so, how well does it function? This unit has high resolution audio (24/196) capability. I’m curious if you had the opportunity to listen to it? I have an older Pioneer, high end NEX unit that is frankly, an expensive, buggy POS. Excellent review - thanks!
This unit is perfect. I’ve had no issues unlike the 8600next from pioneer. I agree that the alpine is a disappointment. Why 480p on an 11 inch screen? I do have the idata hooked up and it functions perfectly. The sound is great on this and the ability to control every sound aspect is great.
@@oneluckybullet2135 Thank you! 👍 I think I’ve found my next and hopefully, last head unit. I need the bigger screen as my eyesight is going south.
where is the usb port lmao i been trying to find it just got it today lmao
How did you get the weather widget to work?
The company contracted for that app went out of business. It will never work
I do have to ask this I forgot before. For security can the unit be quickly removed.? I live near a high crime area. Thanks.
You would need to remove the six screws holding the cover and screen
oneluckybullet Thanks. Just was thinking they would have designed some sort of security quick release for the display.
@@atomicorang I agree. Does seem kinda weird it doesn’t but then again it would have probably hurt the stability
Somebody help me out here. I have this exact unit in my 2019 Tundra, but the weather widget doesn't work. Also when I make/receive calls through CarPlay, the other person can hear me, but I can't hear them at all. I don't even hear it ring. If I call via simple bluetooth then it works perfectly.
Any suggestions?
Make sure CarPlay is set up under devices. As for hearing you and not hearing them it sounds like something with CarPlay and or speakers crossed
@@oneluckybullet2135 What about the weather widget? Did you use the supplied GPS antenna that comes with the head unit or the adapter for the stock Tundra antenna? I bought the adapter from Crutchfield, and that's the only thing I can figure that keeps the weather widget from working.
Adapter but for the widget you have to use the inxs app from KENWOOD
Does this receiver have recording capability built in using the rear or front cameras? Or do the cameras need to have that recording capability built in?
The cameras would need the recording built in. I’m using the KENWOOD camera for the front and it records great
@@oneluckybullet2135 thanks for the reply 🙏🏼 I initially didn’t want to purchase the Kenwood dash cam because it’s quite expensive but I figured the integration and compatibility between similar brand products will be worth it over the long haul. Do you think that it’s worth the price compared to other off brand dash cams in the same category?
Absolutely. Plus you can save all and manually record if you want. It also has a proximity alert system
@@oneluckybullet2135 Thanks - Then the decision is made! My poor wallet 😂
No it doesn’t
How you make work the weather
You have to download an app for it
I still use DVDs and CD s lol
I just realized there’s this version and a 1037 version I don’t really get the difference 😅
Here's the difference.. th-cam.com/video/cSae1dq-ahk/w-d-xo.html
How is the display with sunlight/glare?
I’ll say it’s very good. My only complaint would be fingerprints. They show up but I usually wipe it down every couple days.
@@oneluckybullet2135 Thanks for the feedback.
hi @oneluckybullet
Do you know how to access the hidden customisation menu to change out the boot splash screen image?
Sorry I dont
Did it come with the XM Tuner built in?
No. The tuner is optional and it is outboard.
I got this radio in a 2018 RAV4 but the door notification check engine notification is not working do you know do yours work in the tundra
Do you have the idata link installed
@@oneluckybullet2135 yes the Maestro RR2 and I got the light green wires to black ground
@@lakingboy187 I would assume you flashed the correct firmware to it? Hooked it up correct? Went into settings and initialized the idata so it shows all info?
I didn't do no initializing maybe that's the problem
What’s the difference between 1037 and 1057?
Voltage on the outputs. And I believe the weather app for it
Has anyone used the idatalink maestro as it's not on their website as a compatible head unit yet
I have and it works fine
@@oneluckybullet2135 ok cool I just couldn't find it on there device list I didn't want to spend the cash if I couldn't get it working lol
@@burnzy56469 I don’t blame you but yes it works. I’m using the idata rr2 with mine
Hey man,does the unit have an hdmi port ?
Yes it does
Total spend ????
Sadly does not get loud enough, my old ass 80prs blows it out the water… still amazing for all it does but wow that sucks
How is the display and sound quality compared to the last Pioneer you had which one you think is best please?
uhmeizuhngralphf05 go with the KENWOOD. Way faster and better sound quality
@@oneluckybullet2135 great kenwood win 👏 I'm going to buy one next week 😊 thanks
Is it a Kenwood Excelon or just regular Kenwood
Excelon
@@oneluckybullet2135 👍
