Do you ever get into your car and forget your phone cable to connect to Apple CarPlay or Android Auto? If you have wired CarPlay or Android Auto in your vehicle and want to turn it into a wireless system, it can't be any easer than plugging in the Ottocast U2-X Pro or the U2-X into your car's USB, pairing it with your vehicle and searching for the Ottocast on your bluetooth on your phone. Voila, you're now wireless and what's even better is that you can have 2 phones connect to the unit so you can choose which one to use which is perfect for households that have more than one driver or even for your work vehicle.
Once connected you just use your system just like normal. You can touch, swipe, use voice commands like Siri and Google as you normally would if it were wired. Wanna play your music, no problem and if you want to take it and plug it into another vehicle, it remembers what phone's are paired with it so you don't even have to pair with that vehicle.
The Ottocast U2-X Pro is truly a game changer in our household as we're always changing cars and cables are always going missing and now we can use our wireless charger and be totally wire free. Check the link above as there may be discounts and coupons.

It a pleasure to see you reviewing a product other than a vehicle. You are often prepared in your representation and communicate very well. You also at times enjoy including your wonderful family in the videos. You have a knack for making interesting videos. Thank you for producing the Ottocast U2-X Pro and giving us a demonstration. Well done. May you and your family have a fantastic holiday season.

Will,,,I just received this Ottocast U2-X Pro ,this afternoon ( waited 2 weeks to arrive ) first setup, did not detect it , did a few times , I used the Type C to the device to my USB Port in my vehicle and i also tested that , the device turns off after about 2 mins and 25 seconds , so it doesn't stay on , all the time , which is great , i don't know if the type C port on the device is for Apple Carplay and it showed up as Carplay on the icon , but launches as Android Auto , ran very smoothly , I use the Samsung Z Fold 4 phone and ran great on my Kia Sorento 2021 , 10.25" screen , yes the Google Map is a bit wider ,bigger , then when using the old way , cable to phone. Great product,, haven't yet try updating the device, yet !!, but thank you so much for introducing this device, cheers

I went with the CarLinkit 3.0 for $100 for my '20 Kia Soul, similar principal, works a charm as long as the vehicle supports wired CarPlay but the resync button on yours is definitely a step up instead of unplugging and plugging.
@EverydayReviews2022
@EverydayReviews2022 Год назад
Can you add more than one phone on the Carlinkit? So nice to be wireless isn’t it?
@htspringhiker
@htspringhiker Год назад
I didn't think I'd love being wireless as much as I do. No cable getting caught up on the gearshift. CarLinkIt recognizes multiple phones and has a pop down list on the screen of the Kia to choose. But the 3.0 model only supports CarPlay (not a problem since we have iPhones) Their 4.0 unit ($185 C) supports both AA and CarPlay.

Great little review. One small correction, I think your car does need to support Apple Carplay (not Android Auto) as the little box behaves as an IOS device even if you connect an Android phone to it. So it won't work on a car that e.g. has Android Auto but not Apple Carplay.
@EverydayReviews2022

I’m under the impression that if auto connect is turned on it won’t provide the menu to choose which phone I want to connect to. Auto connect bypasses the multi phone menu and connects only to the last used phone. Is this correct? If my spouse and I both have iPhones and want the menu to choose which drivers phone to connect to what do we have to do?

Great video - was looking for something like this. I have an EV6 myself, I think I will pickup this unit. Do you know if the I5 can support a USB HUB (i.e. 2-to-1) plugged into the USB Data port on the car? Looking to have both a USB thumb drive for my music plugged in at the same time as say this unit? This way I don't have to keep switching (not a fan of running audio off my phone). Curious.

Hi very insightful video though I am curious since you also have a Hyundai....how do you overcome the issue with the usb power staying on when shutting off the vehicle? I have a 2021 sonata hybrid and when I turn off the vehicle and walk away my phone is still connected to the adapter because the car doesnt cut off power to its usb port until a 10 min delay. Therefore I would be walking around in my house missing phone calls or text messages because my phone was still thinking it was connected. Maybe others dont have this problem if they walk far enough from the car. But mine is parked in the garage. So I had to manually remember to disconnect my wireless android auto everytime I get out of my car or just wait the 10 mins for the car to cut off power to its usb port. I also rread some forums and saw many other people complain about this issue such as Tucson or Santafe. Do you know if this new ottocast model has some software feature built in to help with that? I returned mine out of frustration but that was the non pro model as this one you reviewed looks newer released. Thanks

Before using wireless would you be able to do the same on your steering wheel with your phone wired to it? All functions should be the same.

After watching your video review, I ordered this item 8 days ago, not realizing that it’s coming from China. My account was charged the day after I placed the order online. Yet, there is no shipping information updates, other than the item is still in China. I emailed the company and did not receive a reply from them. And after I placed the order, I found out that I could have ordered the same item on Amazon for the exact same price (including the discount). I’m kicking myself for ordering from this company. For those of you out there who are thinking of ordering this item, do your research BEFORE you order directly from the company. I wish I did.

8 days and they haven't even provided any tracking info? Really doesn't sound like them unless they're in some sort of lockdown. Can you just call your credit card company and just cancel? here I thought I was special with them giving me a discount :)

@jgs1564 Год назад
Thanks for the reply. I’m surprised too that I haven’t received any updates from the company regarding my order. If there are no updates by Monday, I’ll probably contact my CC company and cancel the order. Check out the item on Amazon. It’s listed for the exact same price with the same discount.

Will it make Android Auto work better, because Android Auto is extremely buggy, it has too many issues wrong with it, like for example, it crashes at times, it fades to black screen too often and sometimes it will disconnect out of nowhere and I still think Android Auto is horrible.

Surely manufacturers will send out updates for wireless CarPlay. I thought it was just a licensing issue, not a hardware issue.

I think it’s actually hardware as on some vehicles a certain sized screen will have wireless while the other will not.

Does not work with a 2022 GMC Canyon. I worked for 2 weeks with customer service. 1 email a day and no help. If you choose to return it they will charge you $35 restocking fee, plus you pay shipping. So you would get back $15 maybe. Save your money!

I’m sure if your CarPlay or Android would display it you could. I know for Apple you need to jailbreak your phone to be able to have RU-vid or Netflix viewable on Apple CarPlay. I can’t test as my phone isn’t jaikbroken and I don’t have an Android. I’ll try and find someone that has an Android and try it.
