[Upgrade] ATOTO Double Din Car Stereo with Wireless CarPlay,Wireless Android Auto,7in IPS Touchscreen,Bluetooth,Phone Mirroring,HD LRV Camera,USB Video & Audio,F7G2A7WE-S01

I had 3 objectives in mind when purchasing a newer head unit for my vehicle:1) The vehicle is a Jeep with a soft top, it had to be bright enough to be seen in direct sunlight2) I needed a unit with Android Auto and Apple Carplay3) It had to be priced right - the vehicle is a convertible and I can't risk theft of an expensive head unitI looked through reviews and found that this unit had great reviews. I continually ran across reviews for ATOTO products that all claimed they performed way above their price point. I was initially skeptical, but based on the reviews I ordered the head unit and it was promptly delivered by Amazon. Upon opening the box, it contained everything I needed aside from my vehicle specific wiring harness which I had already purchased. The installation was easy and was completed in a couple of hours in my driveway.Once installed, I started utilizing the features and the first obvious win was the wireless Apple Carplay. I run Carplay on another vehicle I own - but it isn't wireless. The setup is easy and has honestly worked flawlessly. The FM reception on the unit is very good, enabling me to pickup stations I have issues with in other vehicles. The backup camera is nice and works well - it doesn't have the best definition I have ever seen, but the fact that it is included in this bundle is a bonus! Finally, the brightness of the unit is very readable - even in direct sunlight with the top down.I know this isn't the highest specification ATOTO unit, but they knocked it out of the park at this price point! I own a K**wood head unit that cost me 3x as much that didn't come with a backup camera, isn't as bright, and isn't wireless. This unit is a much better unit overall, price notwithstanding. Excellent job ATOTO!!!

Stereo reviewJust had this stereo professionally installed and my first impression are that I love it. It looks great in my 04 f150 (new body style) and sounds great. The interface is very responsive and does not lag when swiping from screen to screen. Android auto works perfectly when I plugged my Samsung Galaxy 20 FE into the external USB port and works as it should (Apple Car Play works as designed on my wife’s iPhone as well). Lots of options to customize the sound via an EQ or preset sound modes. The thumb drive works in both the front USB port and external USB port. It says the SD card max is 32gb, but I am using a 64gb and haven’t tried anything larger. Bluetooth was easy to connect and controlled the music on my phone and the hands-free phone functionality (according to my wife) sounds great. There are for a few minor quirks that I have.Quirks:1. This has been resolved via customer support. See update Front USB port does not seem to work with Android Auto or Apple CarPlay (the external USB works perfectly for both), but it does charge my phone (not sure of voltage)2. Saved radio presets cannot be organized (they are arranged in frequency order)3. Music volume cannot be controlled via the slider on screen. Must use physical volume up and down buttons.4. File structure on SD card is displayed kind of funky. You will need to remove all the hidden files as it will try and access them. Also, I have an 64gb SD card organized with folders: BAND NAME -> ALBUM NAME->songs, and it only showing ALBUM folders then you can click on the album name and see the songs.Again, these are minor quirks and do not take away from this being a great stereo for a great price. Will try update this review after I have used for a while to see how it holds up.Updated review: Still loving this radio. Customer service is very helpful and was able to figure out how to switch between USB ports for car play.

The media could not be loaded. After installing the stereo I was excited. It The screen was vibrant and responsive, This was my first experience with Android Auto. It worked fine. Did not testy out Apple Car play since at the time I did not own an Iphone. This was installed in a 3rd vehicle which doesn't get used often (99 Toyota 4 runner). I used the radio while working in the garage and was impressed by the sound, then I ordered accessories for it such as the OBDII sensor and back-up camera all branded Atoto. Installed the camera which worked as advertised but wasn't as clear as I'd hoped. The OBDII sensor I couldn't get to work...Light on sensor illuminates green upon plugging it in but that was it. Contacted Atoto and they said it wasn't compatible with the stereo which was wierd because it was in the instruction manual with a list of compatible accessories listed by model #'s where I got the idea in the first place. Next I tried out the mirror screening...couldn't get it to work on my own at first but after contacting Atoto again they gave me a pointer and I was able to make it work. The trouble started here: after getting the sreen mirror to work, Android Auto would not work any more, Contacted Atoto again, they told me to reset the stereo, use different usb plug, change settings, this time nothing worked. I feel like if I didn't try the screen mirror feature it would have been ok, but if you are going to advertise a feature it should work! Frustration crept in as I tried numerous times (hours troubleshooting), So I just parked the car. A few weeks later I decided I would try again. I really wanted this thing to work and would save me from the hassle of returning it. This time the stereo wouldn't turn on at all....More troubleshooting....checked fuses, took radio back out to check all wires....all were connected properly and securely. No idea what happened. Contacted Atoto, again given troubleshooting tips which I'd already tried several times...(radio still would not power on). Contacted Atoto about sending out a new unit. I was told to return this one to California (I have to pay for shipping) but my package may be rejected as they get a lot of deliveries. I didn't like how that sounded to I contacted Amazon for a refund, which they did provide albeit a reduced amount from my purchase price.ATOTO's customer service responded timely however I wish I had a person to talk to instead of emails back and forth. Bottom line: I think the radio has good features, I would have been happy if it worked and lasted.
