BOSS Audio SystemsBVCP9700A-FL Single DIN Car Stereo Wireless Apple CarPlay, Android Auto, 7 Inch Touchscreen, Bluetooth, AM/FM Radio Receiver

Installed this stereo in my 2000 Honda insight because the design of the dash, with a small ledge above the stereo, limits the type of CarPlay head unit I can install.After looking around at all the different options, this one fits perfectly, and has been working great for over a year.The display is decent quality for the price, and also quite reasonably responsive to touch inputs. I also feel the sound quality did improve at least a little bit, compared to the Pioneer single-din that it replaced.I like the ability to pop the screen out easily, and haven’t really run into any issues with Bluetooth or wired CarPlay since installing. Installation was as easy as any other single-din unit.

Perfect Upgrade for a Classic Bronco!This BOSS stereo is exactly what my son's 1995 Ford Bronco needed to bring it into the modern era. Installation was incredibly straightforward - the wires were clearly marked and labeled, making it easy to match them to the speaker and power wires in the vehicle. The unit fit perfectly into the space where the old radio was removed with no modifications needed.The 7-inch touchscreen is responsive and bright, making the wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto features truly useful. Bluetooth connectivity is solid, and the AM/FM radio reception is excellent even in rural areas. The touchscreen interface is intuitive enough that my son figured it out without needing the manual.For anyone looking to upgrade an older vehicle with modern tech without complicated installation, this is the perfect solution. The price-to-performance ratio is outstanding, and it's completely transformed the driving experience in a 25+ year old truck. Highly recommended!

The product itself awesome the way it sits in my truck that's so awesome Shifter hits radio

I bought this for my fiances car to bring it to modern day, I was slightly skeptical heading into it because the price. The first thing I noticed was the hinge on the screen is very stiff so it does not vibrate when driving or going over bumps, call quality is great and honestly I think sound quality has gotten better. I purchased boss back up camera separate which also works perfectly. Apple Carplay isn't as smooth as android auto, another plus is its wireless and automatically connects which I did not expect!

Absolute worse thing I’ve ever bought checked all the fuses checked power supply with multimeter bench tested the audio player with a battery after trying to install so to late worse part is dodges have a fragile face panel and it cracked while installing and the thing was bad when I got it absolutely 100% don’t waste your money I’ve installed to many audio players to count and I’ve but only 3 of these and 2 were bad from the start just absolutely would not work now I’ve got to replace a whole faceplate in my truck wish I’d have never found this audio player biggest regret so far this year I can’t even begin to explain how upset and disappointed I am that these companies just sell us trash and don’t care they just steal our money and cost us even more I will never in my life's buy another boss product again they make nothing but the worse garbage.

this thing works great. had one issue that I wired wrong and the screen was stuck on a camera error. Called customer service and within 30 seconds we had it handled.

The Positive:1. I like the clear and bright screen and the swivel feature most other 7" units do not have make using and viewing easier. the entire unit looks nice in my opinion.2. I like the 80 Watts per channel, louder than some of the other units I tested, and in a van on the highway with wind noise or windows open, I like a loud unit. I could hear podcasts and voices clearly. Music sounded great.3. The android auto worked well, wireless or wired both work.4. The radio reception on FM was good even in my remote location. I am glad to see AM band function.5. Making calls, either when bluetooth wirelessly paired with android auto, or bluetooth without android auto, worked great an the sound were clear on both ends. I like the external mic.Cons1. unit has os limitations that disable audio from certain apps working through bluetooth. Maybe it is a safety feature, but as someone who has used bluetooth for years in my cars, I am used to being able to have the sound from apps on my phone play through the head unit into the car speakers. I like using youtube, voice recorder, or play other saved recordings, class lectures. I sometimes have a passenger who is not driving who wants to share some audio from various apps on their phone into the car speakers through the head unit. This did not work with the Boss. The Boss seems to only allow audio from a certain set of communication and map related apps but not other apps. It works with apps like whatsapp , phone calling apps, waze, and google maps. It did not work with the other apps I use often. And because the phone stays connected with Bluetooth the phone ends up muting its own speakers. So the problem is on the head unit. I tested it paired with my android phone with android auto wireless running and thought maybe this was just an android auto safety limitation, but then I disabled android auto and paired through regular Bluetooth connection without android auto. It still did not work. I also had the parking brake wire correctly connected and tested this with the car parked and or moving. I reset restarted the system and my phone a few times and no matter what I tried it did not work.2.. The unit description says it can do steering wheel controls, but this is not true out of the box. It has no settings for programing steering wheel functions. The wiring harness that comes with the does not the regular two wire connections to connect most steering wheel wires but instead has a 3.5 type plug. The instruction manual says, to connect to steering wheel buttons please go to the service department of a professional car audio store. I reasearched that this unit might work and aftermarket product called "AXXES Axxess ASWC-1 Steering Wheel Control Interface" that has the 3.5 style plug and that control interface costs $70. So regarding connecting to steering wheel buttons, the Boss is different than other head units i have tried that have menu options for programming the steering wheel controls and have key 1 ot key 2 wires in the harness. The Boss has no internal settings in the menu options to program the steering wheel. So I do not want to pay $70 and install another thing and looking on youtube instructions it seems the AXXES Axxess ASWC-1 Steering Wheel Control Interface is quite a strange device to connect and program.I tried out this unit in my 90s G body chevy van. I have a universal steering wheel button controller and it works with most stereos. The options of what head units I can fit in my van are limited because of the vents and dash in the 80s and early 90's Chevy vans only allow single din size and only 7" or smaller screen size will fit in the space without blocking the HVAC Vents. So with those limited options I am returning the boss and going to test a cheaper unit that is only 45 or 50 watts per channel, and a Pyle unit model PLINDVTB7 that says is 80 watts per channel, both of those units are only wired android auto and not wireless, and they say they seem to have the more standard steering wheel programing function i need. I think the OS is either android or Linux based for both. So I think they will not have the limitations the Boss unit has. I loved the Boss unit's sound has powerful volume capability and I will see which of these other units will work and sound hopefully as good as the Boss. For people who do not care about the steering wheel controls or limitations I mention the Boss seems like a good unit at a fair price.

I installed this unit myself in my 1993 Toyota Previa, replacing the original equipment in-dash cassette tape player. The wiring harness adapter, sold separately, makes this a simple task.CarPlay is my favorite app!
