The Good:
Still makes the interior better looking
Sound Quality is the same.
Navigation is spot on without internet connection
Plays music, movies and other files just fine with the USB connections.
Picks up last long played when car is turned off and back on.
Reverse camera is cheap, but works fine with guidelines.
Quick Browser processing
Easily Tethers to House Wifi or Phone Mobile Hotspot (Android Phone)
Easily adds Contacts from Phone to Bluetooth Phone-book
All steering wheel controls work EXCEPT for call. When pressed on Steering wheel it will not initiate call. Mute/End, Volume Up/Down, Source all work.
DVD works well, I have a lower resolution screen the others have ordered.
Car radio works just like the OEM unit, same channels and clarity.

The Bad (Now Fixed)
Pre-installed equalizer, comes with 2 preinstalled that fight each other. Just removed one and sound is fine.
Just fine with TPMS (make sure you dont need air and think there is problems with the unit).
Google Play works fine once the one time fix is completed for the error code (common on 2.3.4)
OS lag is fixed with adding a App Cache Cleaner, no lag.

Not Solved Yet
IGo Navigation always loads when starting the vehicle (It seems)(Still the same.)
Will play from Ipod (tags and codes songs incorrectly sometimes) Switched to USB
No Steering wheel control of Ipod, only screen control.(Still the same.)
Prior to removing stock radio and looking at the connections, almost looks like a beginner couldn't figure it out.
Does take some modification to fit dash
Very little instructions provided
Screen is pretty bright while driving at night (can hit button to turn black) or set different wallpaper. Same



Pending:
Remote Control Use (need battery which I haven't picked up yet)
Camera Recording (Haven't tried)
Using Bluetooth Menu to access Factory Settings of Unit (codes are provided on nearly the last page of the limited instruction manual)

This unit is not for everyone. This thing may not last, everyone has something they are looking for. I wanted something with Android as none of the current Big Name units seem to have broke through with this yet. I am a little disappointed with the fitment and having to modify, but sometimes that even happens with brand name. I am also a little disappointed with the lack of instructions, there are none. I am not a novice but I am no means an expert and I figured it out. I will update occasionally with any good or bad issues. Those that are worried about the Western Union transaction, well it is your money, no one will look after it better then you will. As far as I know, the 3 or 4 people who have ordered all have received.

Below is a shot of the backup camera screen in complete darkness.

I can see the quality isn't the greatest on the camera, but it's not better than nothing. Play I'm sure the clarity is better during daylight. I can't fathom why these cameras aren't producing a better picture, you would think they would put a decent camera in there, both own and aftermarket.
