Replaced a factory installed Becker radio in my Mercedes SLK with the Pioneer. I was surprised that there was a substantial improvement in the sound quality, and the Pioneer is really powerful. Also having a solid and central place to mount my phone Was an added bonus.This is the only radio I know of that offers such integration with a smart phone and offers features of a double din in a single din format. The app really does enhance the features of the radio and lets you do things that would be near impossible on a normal single din unit.The app is brilliant and the latest version irons out a lot of the early issues. This is possibly the best radio I have installed over the past 30 years, and Ive installed over 30 car radios over the years. The Pioneer gives a nice rich, thick sound which I prefer with plenty of low end (bass). There are also loads of settings to tune the sound to your liking.(Technical part…). Without an additional amplifier the radio will work best with your factory installed speakers. Installing high wattage speakers will be harder to drive so may degrade the sound, if you have a thin sound that’s why. High power speakers have more powerful magnets and Beefed up Suspension which are harder to move. So this prevents the speaker from performing as intended when driven with sub optimal power. Of course adding an amplifier that is matched to your speaker output will fix this and it will result in a louder, tighter sound. It’s the same as lifting weights, for a small guy to do his workout properly he requires lighter weights however a stronger person can lift more weights for the same routine. In this scenario the weight lifter is the amplifier and the weights the speaker. The smaller guy could lift the larger weights but would struggle. This is a very basic explanation but so many people are confused about this. Moral of the story…match your speakers to the output of your amplifier as best as possible and look for high efficiency speakers. People always rip on the factory installed speakers with paper cones and tiny magnets, however they’ve been matched to the radio output. Also although paper cones are more subject to wear it’s a perfect material for speaker cones. Some of the best speakers use paper cones.In conclusion. (sorry that was a rant) the Pioneer is great. I have not experienced any of the negative issues mentioned with the software yet and at this price point it’s stonking good value. I’m surprised this has not been sold as Pioneers high end unit with a much higher price tag.

Fairly easy to install in a Peugeot 106 2012 model. Looks great once installed, phone holder seems very sturdy and hides away inside the unit when not in use. Came with all cables I needed except an aerial adaptor. Sound quality is good on the factory speakers though it does distort a little at high volumes. This is more due to the speakers than the stereo itself though.Bluetooth connectivity is pretty easy but it can sometimes take a while to connect. The app for my phone (Galaxy S9) works fine mostly. I do have a few minor complaints about the app, first, using youtube music doesn’t show album art or the name of the track playing on the display. Second, when making a phone call it shows a bunch of the same phone numbers for one contact. So instead of just clicking on the name of the contact you then have to click the phone number, it then takes you out of the app to your phone app and you have to click call from there, it’s a little clunky. All the people I’ve called say the sound quality from the mic that comes with the stereo is good. Very happy with my purchase, well worth it instead of paying much more for a unit with fully integrated satnav, it

I wanted to upgrade the sound quality in my car, which this unit does straight out of the box. Really good sound and easy to connect to your phone, however it doesn’t always automatically connect when I start the car and I sometimes have to go in an start the app. It loses a star because the app is pretty bad and another because the customer service via the app is non existent. I haven’t managed to connect to Alexa as the button to do so is unresponsive, so I messaged support and never got a reply. That’s poor. It could probably do with a physical pause button as well, as my display is satnav by default so I have to either go through the app dashboard to get the music player to pause, or use my watch. I often just turn it right down if I stop to chat to someone or something. As long as you position the mic near you (mine is in the door frame just above and in front of my head) I’ve been told the phone call quality is great. They can even hear me clearly while I’m driving with the window open.The hardware quality is great if a bit feature sparse, the idea being the features are on the app, but the app is bad with no support. I’d rather use Android Auto.Good value for money, but I now wish I’d have bought the double din version. I still might.
