Words can not express how unique this product is. I have yet to find anything else that attempts to provide dynamic screen mounting. Thankfully Sony also made a generally good radio to go along with it.
Pros:
- Clean and effective interface
- Good sound quality
- Modern feature set including Android Auto and Apple Carplay via USB
- Amazingly adjustable display mounting
- Vibrant and responsive touch screen
- Decent USB connectivity features
Cons:
- I dont have XM and I'd like to remove the menu icon but can not
- Limited bluetooth range, I used to walk around the van with my phone in my pocket no prob
- No audio input port and no CD player
Notes:
- It took me a while to figure out why the parking break wire was relevant. Android Auto requires that the parking break is set before you can configure it. I haven't had any functional parking break wiring in decades. If you're in the same situation, you just want to ground that wire.

I was a little skeptical of this unit and have always been skeptical of aftermarket units as I think they're ugly, of terrible quality and a pain in the a** to use. This Sony unit checks ALL the boxes + more. The interface is beautiful, simple and EASY to navigate unlike most aftermarket units. Apple CarPlay works SEAMLESSLY and flawlessly. Connecting a backup camera was EASY and my unit looks so good mounted into the license plate light (all links for what I needed are listed below). I was worried I wouldn't like the USB port next to the screen but it really doesn't bother me other than the look isn't great but it was better than routing a USB port somewhere else and way simpler + this unit has AUX if you need it. My only complaint is that the touch screen is capacitive and it's kind of old school. Granted you're not touching it much and it works just fine, it's just not as nice as say a high quality glass or plastic display with resistive touch. That being said, I purchased an open box unit from Amazon in perfect condition-sealed for $250 so I have ZERO complaints. I had a hard time figuring out how everything would come together for a 2007-2010 Elantra but below are all the items I needed that made for a perfect install. I am EXTREMELY satisfied with this unit and setup and could not be happier. It looks great, it has a REAL volume knob, Apple CarPlay is kick a** and I have a backup camera mounted to look OEM!
I HIGHLY recommend this unit!

Contrast all of that with the Sony. It has very good sound, radio reception is very good on both AM and FM, and no problem with the usb functions. The interface is basic, but complete, and easy to use. It's not all sex, drugs, and rock and roll though. If you want to add your own background to the display, you're out of luck. That's it, I'd like to see a few changes to the software (hold the band selector (FM1, FM2, AM1, AM2) to get a list, let us add backgrounds, the ability to move stuff around in the interface), but really, this stereo is very satisfying just as it is. Thumbs up, Sony. You've done a good job, but don't rest on your laurels, upgrade to keep pace!
