If you are looking to buy this headunit please read this comment first. I have recently installed this same headunit into my 2007 Lexus ES 350, and I use the Apple Carplay features. He got some things wrong in this video. At 1:11 he claims this unit does wired / wireless Android Auto and wired / wireless Apple Carplay. THIS IS NOT TRUE. This headunit only does wireless Apple Carplay. If you are expecting to use this headunit and use the USB-C output for wired Apple Carplay it will not work. Make sure your iPhone is compatible with wireless Carplay. Second of all, at 2:12 he claims the GPS antenna will make it more accurate. In order to use Carplay with this headunit it is REQUIRED to install the GPS antenna. If the GPS antenna is not installed or installed incorrectly CARPLAY WILL NOT WORK. Make sure to do more resaerch before buying this headunit. If you found this comment helpful please like it so more people will usnderstand what this headunit is capable of and save some headaches. Thanks!
Yes all true. Sony did some unorthodox things on this radio but other brands are similar with the antenna wireless won’t work unless the antenna is hooked up. Thanks for clearing this up hopefully others will read this. Thanks for the comment!
@@Jaydogg209 I don't think you can change the button color. You can change the wallpaper. I used the USB drive method to upgrade the firmware, but there is also a USB tethering option listed in the manual. Not sure how that works exactly.

Rookie question and I must have overlooked it. Just had this model installed today and using Android Auto. How do iI change Celsius to Farenheight in climate? Assume that is what the C was for.

For the steering wheel control if you have it setup for to change Source, does it go through every source you have or only the ones you have selected at the bottom?
We're driving cars not sitting on our couches...how can you leave out the volume knob....sheesh! We need as many tactile buttons on these devices so we can keep our eyes on the road. I wonder if the people who designed these devices are even human.
I agree my ford came with a kenwood and I love it but it doesn't have the volume knob, sometimes i miss the buttons havinf the knob woukd be way easier
I hate that sony has terrible updates. After 3 years, I wish i could have the option of updating my XAV-AX700 interface to something more like this! This looks a bit better than mine! But i cant. Stuck with mediocre interface.
Sony are kidding themselves when they say anti glare screen ive got a 3200 and it's crap in sunlight but i did a carlinkit air 2 and the wireless android auto work great cost 200 bucks less
