Could you please make a test video showing the built in Waze or Google maps during navigation? I'd love to see how smooth it is during driving and navigation. Most reviewers only open and pinch zoom the map and quickly move on. Thanks!
Hi Shaz, very useful video. Wish you all the best. I was wondering if you can dig out something for those who don't have car play option in the headunit
Here are two products that I suggest for those who do not have the CarPlay option in their car screen: carpuride.com/?ref=YvfOsnuU carplay.tw/?ref=iJDkWtHH Or you can always replace your car screen with an aftermarket Android screen. Whatsapp me with your car details and I will find a good one for you
Great Video!!! I am trying to set up a SIM card with Version. They need the IMEI number. Where do I find that number on Carlinkit 6GB RAM CarPlay Media Adapter 🌟 TBox Plus 2.0. THANKS!! Keep up the great work!!
Thank You for a Great review! I ordered mine a couple of days ago and expect it to arrive soon, it's good to see I've chosen smart! One question though, Is the wireless Android Auto and CarPlay only communicating via Bluetooth or WIFI & Bluetooth? I am intending to put a Sim Card into the Tbox Plus, so to connect I need to have both WIFI & Bluetooth open or just Bluetooth? Thank You again,
Hey mate thanks fir the video, question my T box does not connect when first starting up the car, generally have to unplug and reboot whilst the car is on, any recommendations on a fix ? Thanks in advance
great video, i came across this video and i’m eager to purchase this to have a wireless connection. May i ask if it can dload 3rd party apps. Preferably the “70mai apps” before i purchase this item. thanks
Probably yes. You can install apps via Play Store or using the pre installed APK installer app. I always prefer to download apps from APK Pure to install and it works
The biggest issue with tbox plus 1.0 was the Wi-Fi card which was slow to connect to mobile hotspot. Did they upgrade the Wi-Fi card chipset for this upgraded model?
Is it OEM company fitted original carplay system, then it will work. In my videos I test these adapters in my VW ID.4 which has factory wireless carplay system
There are two ways to connect this device to internet, 1) connect the device with your mobile hotspot via wifi, 2) insert a data sim card (you can get a clone of your mobile sim card)
Hi there I got the device and it does not connect throught Bluetooth at all I rest the device on factory settings . I turn off my phone quite a few time.and I tried others phones as well but it does not connect to Bluetooth at all
You can find the details around updating firmware here : carlinkitcarplay.com/blogs/t-box-multi-language-tutorials-for-factory-wired-carplay/how-can-i-upgrade-the-t-box-firmware
@@MinistryReviewsSchaz and it says also android 12.is that right? Can you do a video about factory reset ?seems a bit dificult on this carlinkit..and also about sideloading apps..like iptv.. i am sure more people will want that..
I love it! It worth it's weight in GOLD!
Will definitely give it a try. Hope its compatible with my vehicle. Thanks

I dont have this device with me anymore, I have tested these for long period and navigation works pretty smoothly

CarPlay is via BT only
AndroidAuto is via Wifi and BT
So if you are planning to put a SIM card then you should have no issues at all
Looking smart

Did you try to update firmware?
Hi
Is this one or the Apple pie ultra better . And which is more reliable .
When you have a sim card inserted, is it a hotspot so other devices can connect and share the connection?
I have a 2022 Toyota rav4 made in Japan. is the above unit will work for my car? please reply, thank you
Yes, It should work if your car has the wired carplay function
Do you have audio quality issues when using Waze and TH-cam? Or Waze with in car radio?
No audio issues. I tested most of the apps
great video, i came across this video and i’m eager to purchase this to have a wireless connection. May i ask if it can dload 3rd party apps. Preferably the “70mai apps” before i purchase this item. thanks

I have order my carlinkit plus with 8Gb x 128Gb and Android 12 ::)
what website did you order from? seeing a lot of sketchy sites. how do you like it?
Hello
Do I need a SIM card to make it work
I got one but doesn’t work on my truck can you help me
No, you dont need a SIM card for it to work. You just need to make sure that your car has the wired carplay function
What about Audio syncing ?
Does the Audio match up with the video actor/action.
All of the Ai box I bought the audio do not match up with the video.
It was in perfect sync on the apps I tested. Do you want me to test a specific one for you. Whatsapp me and I will make a test video for you
HI
İn order to use Netflix and TH-cam, is it necessary to set sim card to the device, or is it enough WiFi or Bluetooth connection?
Thank you 🙏
You can simply connect the device with your mobile hotspot for internet, you dont have to insert a sim card for that
Hey mate
Is that possible to get hotspot for other devices at vehicle from inserted simcard
No sir
Why is the car link not compatible with Ford F150 17 to 22 model
These adapters works only in cars that support wired carplay connectivity
The biggest issue with tbox plus 1.0 was the Wi-Fi card which was slow to connect to mobile hotspot. Did they upgrade the Wi-Fi card chipset for this upgraded model?
I checked, it is working fine for me. I guess they have fixed the problem
@@MinistryReviewsSchaz is it the same Wi-Fi chipset?
There are the Carlinkit Official Store and the Carlinkit Direct Store. Are both official stores? That's a bit confusing.
I have given the links to the official stores in my video description. There are many websites that claim to be official, avoid them
Is this the same as the 8GB version? The 8GB version as Android 12.0. is this a newer version and have you reviewed this version?
This is the leatest model from the official store: s.click.aliexpress.com/e/_DCCtWeZ
Go for this one
I’m upgrading as well. I have 2019 usb cable carnlite. It’s horrible and crashes.
Go for the new Carlinkit model then: s.click.aliexpress.com/e/_DEg2Ez9
Hi, if my car has wireless carplay my default will this still work? On the description of the item it says car must have wired carplay
Is it OEM company fitted original carplay system, then it will work. In my videos I test these adapters in my VW ID.4 which has factory wireless carplay system
@@MinistryReviewsSchaz yes it's OEM wireless carplay. Thankyou so much !!! Appreciate it 😊
sir i bought this in the month of nov 2022 with a new update of 23/11/2022.
How would you get a SIM card without paying a monthly fee
There are two ways to connect this device to internet, 1) connect the device with your mobile hotspot via wifi, 2) insert a data sim card (you can get a clone of your mobile sim card)
Can you still play the (dab) car radio if you navigate with the box?
I didnt test, but I am sure the car radio will work. You will have to switch off the navigation voice
@@MinistryReviewsSchaz can you please test it on the next box?
It works, just switch off the navigation voice. I just tested it on the new Android 13 iHeylinkit device I tested few days back on my channel
@@MinistryReviewsSchaz hey thank you allot, im looking for a box, but this one is a bit to pricey👍
Hi there I got the device and it does not connect throught Bluetooth at all I rest the device on factory settings . I turn off my phone quite a few time.and I tried others phones as well but it does not connect to Bluetooth at all
Try the firmware update. Contact the seller, they should be able to help.
Is there a way to update my current device?
You can find the details around updating firmware here : carlinkitcarplay.com/blogs/t-box-multi-language-tutorials-for-factory-wired-carplay/how-can-i-upgrade-the-t-box-firmware
And the store link that has been uploaded says 8gb ram . So just wanted to confirm as that’s what the Ali express link says .
I suggest go with this one with the 8GB RAM as per the link. That is the best one
@@MinistryReviewsSchaz and it says also android 12.is that right? Can you do a video about factory reset ?seems a bit dificult on this carlinkit..and also about sideloading apps..like iptv.. i am sure more people will want that..
Is it compatible with bmw ix3 2022 model?
For BMW, you have to get a different device, below is the link:

Does not work with phone calls on the steering wheel
Works with my steering wheel phone button, I have a Mazda cx9 2016. And I have the 8gb/128gb android 12 version of this box
@@Qbavision okay, not om my 2022 ev6
@@jt19767171 the box connects through a wireless adhoc protocol by default. Try connecting via Bluetooth too may get you the functionality.
@@Qbavision i have tried with BT,do you know how to reset the items?
I have screen but I don’t have a carplay. So it doesn’t work with me 🔥
