GBBIG LET DOWN AND FAILURE I was stoked to buy this and had high hopes it would be amazing. Forget customer support. No response to my emails. Imagine they wait out the 14 day warranty so you are stuck with it. Big let down and NO help from support. It constantly disconnects from Bluetooth. The software is not smooth and fluid like on your phone. The biggest problem!! The audio through your car speakers sounds horrible. Nothing but feedback and static, can’t enjoy any music. Tried the Aux cable and Bluetooth, FM transmitter. Either way nothing but horrible noise that can be heard through the music. Doesn’t matter Pandora, Spotify, Apple Music all get the same results. And yes I have have other Bluetooth FM transmitters that do not do this, they just don’t have a screen.

GBI've been using this product for a bit… I've been using this product for a bit over a week now, but it's made my Corolla feel more premium with CarPlayBox Addition, which is the only reason I really bought it. Hooking it up is pretty straightforward, you can use the included suction cup mount to put it on the windsheild or the dashboard mount. The power adapter allows you to connect another usb cable for your phone if you want wired CarPlay or Android Auto. In order for either to work, it uses Bluetooth to connect, there will be instructions in the package as to how it works, it's pretty simple.

GBDrop shipping scam 99% sure this is a drop shipping scam. (The definition: A drop shipping scam is performed using a cheap and easily marketable product, creating advertisements that embellish the quality and capabilities of the product, and then selling the product through online stores at an inflated price.) There are TONS of units that are exactly the same as the CarPlayBox, that are much cheaper (Like, $50 to $100 cheaper) on Amazon (Search PODOFO, XGODY etc) and you'll see they have the same photos and models as CarPlayBox. Just search their product images via Google lens and you'll see the wealth of options. Basically they're a middleman, charging you extra via having a semi-fancy website. I'm annoyed I fell for it, frankly. The product is fine, but not worth what I paid. If you want to return it, you'll have to do so directly to some dodgy address in China, so good luck with that. Shipping took forever, conveniently long enough that the return window had expired. What a coincidence.

GBThe screen size is big enough to see… The screen size is big enough to see the map on the GPS and not too big to block my peripheral vision. My vehicle does not have Bluetooth capability so it's wonderful to be able to FINALLY connect my phone to my car! I can mirror my phone as well, so I can play a video to entertain my friends or whoever is riding with me.

GBI wanted a back up camera in my 2009… I wanted a back up camera in my 2009 BMW 128i convertible. There are many units on the market, but I didn't want to modify my dashboard to install one. This monitor/back up camera was perfect for my needs. My son removed my car seats and fed the wiring from the front to the back. The camera is nearly invisible as it's installed on the Trunk Lid Lock Release Push Button Handle (for which he needed to drill a small hole.) The screen is attached to my dashboard with the included sticky patch. (I didn't want a hole drilled there.) installation took about 4 hours including putting seats back (and me taking advantage of the situation to shampoo the rugs and vacuum every square inch of interior and trunk). I've used the monitor/camera for nearly 3 months and it works perfectly every time. The front and back cameras are clear and sharp. I use Google Maps with Spotify and voice commands to control the unit, including sending dedicated text messages.
