Pioneer developing iPhone-like multitouch head-unit

BigNate · 01-09-2012, 08:53 PM

I've installed a few app radios and have yet to have a happy customer. First of all this is in now way shape or form a pioneer manufactured radio. It shares most of its features with Advent double din radios. Each customer complained of an unresponsive touch screen and an inability to use apps as well as the screen freezing randomly until the car is turned off. Physically the harness and chassis are identical to the Advent Adv-u630 as is the gps antenna. This is an indication that this is simply a cheap audiovox product that someone at pioneer saw somewhere and bought the rights too and just rebadged it as a pioneer product. Overall the appradio is a waste of money
