Excellent Functionality / Best Performance / Very Good Value
I bought no less than three Android Head Units hoping to find the best one. Turns out the DUDU7 is the one. Search online for "DUDU 7 Review" and you will find my professional testing at Audio Science Review. DUDU7's Lauchner software is far superior to other units which ship with a low resolution/low capability dashboards. The level of noise and distortion out of both analog and pre-amplifier output is lower as well.I paired the DUDU7 with a DSP Amplifier using Toslink and there is zero noise even if you put your ears against the speaker. Performance is wonderful and far, far superior to any traditional head units.I finally managed to get a harness to interface with the vehicle Canbus and was so pleasantly surprised to see so much integration including such things as graphically showing what door is open, automatic headlight detection, etc. Before that I reached to the company about the right harness and they were so attentive and good English writing skills. Not so with the other head units I tested.I have installed all of my favorite apps with zero compatibility issues. Downloaded google maps so they work without network access. Having very responsible, high resolution display of that in the car is a joy.Cost is also half of the Sony unit I was looking at with similar digital output.The 9.5 inch display is really 9 inch and so fits in the dash of our Sprinter van with the mount we already had although having more options would have been nice. With the right wiring harness for the car, it is just plug and play.I like that entire electronics is behind the display itself so no effort to push the cabling behind the unit as there was with double din units.There is a fan in the back which only came on when I stressed the system with app downloads and such. It quickly shut off and stayed so in every day access.This is the clearly the most customized and optimized implementation of Android for Automotive. It easily obsoletes traditional units. While then one I got is pricier than some other competitors, they often run older versions of Android with no ability to upgrade.Bottom line, highly recommended!

Outstanding performance and customer service
13 inch installed in a 2015 Sonata. Great customer service from before buying to after purchasing. It arrived very fast, they used USPS which made me anxious because USPS is bad delivering to the wrong address. I originally had another android installed (different brand, smaller size) so all I had to do was plug and play. This was a bigger size than previous receiver, but it came with two frames to fit it into my original 9” frame, so I was able to install this 13”, highly recommended and way better than ither android receivers.

Well worth it. Great customer support. Great product.
Satisfied with purchase. Had what I wanted and then some. Installed in 2002 Tundra. Had to order a harness and bezel to fit my truck and do some custom work but still easy to manage for a novice. Customer support (Cheney) is exemplary in what she does. Communicates well and answered questions I had before and after receiving the product. There is no manual that comes with the product but it’s easy to figure out. Just make sure to order bezel and harness when you purchase the product because you are going to wait a couple weeks for it to arrive. Product does PIP, works with the apps you probably use, and I hooked up an emulator to the aux.

Absolutely amazing hardware and software. Not always the best after sale support...
First off let me just say, the hardware is awesome. I got the 12 GB RAM and 256 GB Storage version and it is snappy as heck. Be default, it just goes to sleep when you turn the car off and the darn thing pops on so quick when you turn the car on, it almost beats my instrument cluster. The DUDU Auto software is good as well.One gripe I do share with owners of pretty much all android headunits is that Android Auto is not reliable on initial connection. About 20% of the time it just sits there an spins on "connecting". Often going to radio and back makes it work. I think this is the fault of the android app, not DUDU Auto.I purchased mine direct from Meke because I emailed them about vehicle compatibility first. The process went well. A rep emailed me back, I sent an image of my dash and they told me they would send mine with a frame, high speed data wire adapter and wiring harness for my vehicle. Should be a super easy install I thought.Wel, not so much. They do not make the frames, they just source what they find to be the best for each vehicle. I noticed the frame they sent me for my older highlander was the same as another android tablet/headunit. It came with 3 extra wire harnesses beyond the default stuff in the DUDU7 box.NO instructions of any sort. There was a QR code for online instructions which were rather generic and at times convoluted. Many things did not match the accessories I had for my car. I do like a puzzle so I figured it would all become clear when I pulled the factory headunit.WEll... no. I did get basic functionality but I had an extra harness from them and many things like the frame, airbag system etc were not working.And we come to the main reason I only give this 4 stars.... The tech support. My god it is bad. It is what some of you may be used to now from China. Only 1 or two responses overnight and it is like they are just reading the support history for the first time every time. They ignore most of your questions and leave short cryptic responses.What finally worked was emailing the initial contact I had at Dudu-Auto and inquiring about the 30 day return window. All of a sudden I had someone at support who actually paid attention to what I was asking and cleared up a lot of ambiguities. One was the misinformation that I would have access to the high speed canbus for vehicle data. That didn't happen. I had to splice two harnesses together to get the frame controls to connect to the headunit on the canbus input.I had to figure the SRS airbag error out on my on (a problem many people with a 2nd gen highlander seem to have with aftermarket stereo installs. The solution was to extract the Hazards/ alarm, seatbelt and Airbag board from the factory radio frame, wrap it in electrical tape, hook it back up and just splice the hazards switch from the Meke supplied frame in parallel. Then I just stuffed the factory board back behind the headunit in the dash. Works fine now and it is always nice to have the airbag functional for your passengers.Wiring in the factory reverse camera was fun since they did not give me a harness for that and my vehicle required a 12v to 6v buck converter. But, I got it done.By the way, these wire taps were absolutely invaluable for the install process on my car. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B072N7S3DL?ref=ppx_yo2ov_dt_b_fed_asin_titleSo, after all the frustration and tearing my hands up digging behind the dash in my car, I now have an amazing android headunit in my old 2nd gen highlander. IT was worth it to me but not everyone may want to go through the same process. Although, if you have a newer vehicle, it probably would be smoother.

Don't pass this game changer up
Just wanted to check back in with the dudu7, the radio blows my mind with its smooth operating system it 3x pip displays and not to mention all the awesome ways you can set this up if there was a 10 star button it would get a 20. Don't look anywhere else don't be fooled with all these cheap android head units that are on the market. THESE ARE THE YEARS OF MEKEDETECH DUDUAUTO THE DUDU7
