  1. Stormnorm15

    Needed to update my 2001 CRV with Bluetooth and CarPlay and local radio. Works terrific. Make sure to get the dash kit they sell

  2. AaronK

    Exactly what we wanted .. and it was on sale.. would highly recommend.

  3. Alexander

    Works great, has tons of adjustable setting for all types of speaker sizes & types. The tuning capabilities are infinite. I love the fact it has bluetooth & usb monitoring. Works great for long travels & the touchscreen adds a nice finish to the car. Software is great and everything works in seconds. Still have yet to install my backup camera but would definitely recommend this product.

  4. DelinaS

    Wow! My son loves his car play. Easy set up that my 16 yo did it!

  5. KenS

    This radio is a massive upgrade from the stock radio I had in my 2004 Dodge RAM. The screen is a bit hard to see in direct sunlight, but that’s not a surprise. The audio is improved. The radio is easy to use. I only wish I had gotten the adapter that allows me to use the steering wheel controls.

  6. KellyD

    Great radio, everything works like it is suppose to. Easy to navigate.

  7. JamesC

    Great system. Very user friendly. Highly recommend

  8. ChelseW

    I’m very unimpressed with this radio. My radio had great signal before installing this and after install there’s barely any signal. Geek squad tried to fix it and put a new one in and it still didn’t work. It’s also not very user friend to figure out how to navigate.

  9. Msainfiniti

    Great radio. I need something to replace my factory radio in a Kia. It was easy to install and the sound is awesome

  10. StapleMouse

    This headunit does everything I need and more! The Carplay works great, the display is great and very responsive and the sound is top notch. Really brought the stock Bose speakers in my vehicle to life. Id recommend this anyone looking for a Carplay/Android Auto headunit from a reputable brand within a pretty good price range.

  11. JSBME

    Great upgrade for my 2010 Honda CRV – makes my vehicle look more up to date my kids say. Pairs great with our phones easily.

  12. KayZ

    Great product. Nice quality sound. Flawless connection. Got it for the apple car play and it works like a charm. Great bang for your buck.

  13. Trash

    1st i purchased an open box and it stated it was excellent condition. It was far from excellent. Parts missing, no protection in box, head unit faced down in the box on top of objects that could scratch or damage the screen. The 1st head unit i purchased from Best buy couple years ago (open box) was a pioneer but had issues. So never buy open box from best buy. Its trash! I returned this Kenwood to my local store and they only had a brand new in stock and they gave me a discount but i still had to come out of pocket of course and pay a little more. Its worth it. The Kenwood is fantastic with all the features it offers and great for a audio system.

  14. PaulB

    Head unit is amazing bought for my girlfriend cvr and am now purchasing one for myself geek squad was great and very helpful with all her questions and concerns about the head unit

  15. BrittanyB

    Apps work well with iPhone. Bluetooth connects easily

  16. ScottJ

    Excellent product. The pioneer is everything that it advertised. Crazy install as well

  17. MaryL

    Spencer was very helpful and knowledgeable.
    The Apple play navigation is great!

  18. Notinterested

    Simple to install. Works as it should. Simple to set up and functions.

  19. ErickM

    Very good radio very good customer service very help

  20. Reencho66

    Best buy installed radio, looks beautiful! It took over 2 hours to do, but it was worth it.

  21. DanS

    Overall decent unit, there is a bit of a lag when pressing buttons

  22. Ghicks

    All expectations met. Easy do it yourself installation if you purchase harness kit with it.

  23. MarinosC

    Is a great upgrade for my car . It works prefectly . And i love the quality of sound

  24. Mike

    Looks Great in my jeep and works great. Perfect replacement

  25. MikeY

    Good product-good price. Worked as it should. Would recommend

  26. Dave

    I have always been of the opinion that if it ain’t broke, don’t fix it. Well, the factory stereo in my 2016 Toyota Highlighter developed problems so I had Best Buy’s Geek Squad fix it with a new stereo. I love it. I rarely have to touch it. Paring my iPhone and using Apple CarPlay I just tell it what I need and it does the rest. The unit integrated nicely into my car’s interior and with my car’s features. The factory stereo didn’t have the newer features. The voice recognition was not good and it didn’t offer Apple CarPlay. Now I wonder why I waited so long.

  27. Corsair0292734

    Works great loud clear picture would recommend to anyone

  28. Zach282

    Bought this as an upgrade. Works great for the price. Was kind of skeptical say a review saying it had a glare. Haven’t seen a glare since putting it in. Bright and easy to see and works great at night. Apple car play works like apple car play. Radio works fine. It’s easy to navigate.

    The only thing I wish it was is manual buttons so I could feel what I’m pressing when I’m driving. But other then that it’s fine.

  29. JimW

    An Excellent stereo upgrade for the money. A great value.

  30. trailrider

    very nice unit returned before i got to install
    sold my jeep

  31. Sony75

    Love this radio, only thing is it doesn’t have the CD or DVD player.

  32. TerryB

    Works great. Installer was very professional! Works with the steering wheel controls perfectly!

  33. Trsab

    Great system upgrade for my Jeep! Love the screen size and all the features! Good system without breaking the bank,

  34. Ching684

    Love this deck compared to the stock one in my Chevy mainly because of the apple car play and work on android too. Fully touch screen and with no lag or dead spots too. It made a huge difference in audio for my kicker speakers already installed in my car compared to the stock radio it’s night and day. I’d say this is one of the best investments I’ve made to my car as far as quality of life improvement. Bought it on sale at Black Friday and it comes with free installation at Best Buy, it’s a win win

  35. JamesG

    Overall it’s a great radio, my only complaint would be when I receive a call or try to make one the screen goes black and stays off until the call is completed. The call still comes through the car no problem but I either have to fumble with my phone to end the call or wait for the other person to hang up before I regain control over the radio

  36. MartinO

    Excellent ! Replaced my factory radio with this one and wow ! Huge difference! The sound quality is amazing! Super happy with this deck!

  37. AshleeG

    This is a pretty good radio it’s the 2nd one I got because the 1st one stopped working so well see

  38. NoeZ

    Is just perfect radio for what I need on the road..

  39. Router

    Big time bang for your buck. It’s a great head unit. Put it in my 2018 titan and love it. Be sure you realize most head units in this price range are car play VIA USB CORD! If you’re ok with that you’ll love it. If you’re installing it yourself like I did the usb cord is hardwired into the back of the unit and is probably 6 feet.

  40. MatthewM

    Love it works great, major upgrade from factory and I was able to add a reverse camera easily. The quality is superb.

  41. Gregor

    Would not recommend as it has very poor audio output and also the radio tuner is absolutely the worst. If you buy this radio you need to get an amplifier that’s for sure also ended up returning it because of the radio tuner was something we wanted to use and got a Sony, that sounded better

  42. AnthonyM

    Jesse did a fanstastic job installing and setting up my new car radio.

  43. JeaD

    I really like this stereo and it’s a definite upgrade from the factory stereo.

  44. TriflinMac

    I like the price. I wish it came with a remote control

  45. Vail

    No video signal since I purchased it .i would not recommend buying !

  46. JoseS

    Very good stereo and quality!! Highly recommended 100%

  47. PaulP

    Solid product easy installation free with purchase. Best bang for your buck!

  48. ElishaS
