A word from Stu-
Saab Unleashed is a channel which started over lockdown and has evolved into a mixture of Saab-related shinanigans, car infotainment stuff and in-car tech reviews.
I've been doing these reviews for a couple of years now. The reviews are always based on my personal opinion and are NOT paid for by the manufacturers. This should be fairly obvious because I always talk about any negative points of products.
Sometimes I buy head units to review; sometimes I reach out to manufacturers asking them to provide me with a head unit to review, and sometimes they reach out to me. It is important to me that everyone knows that these free products will never change the outcome of my opinion, or the head unit final scores. If there are issues, believe me, everyone will know!
My intention is to ultimately create detailed, honest and matter-of-fact reviews for consumers and enthusiasts, not advertisements for the manufacturers.
Nowadays, I try to use affiliate links in the video descriptions wherever possible. Most of them are not affiliate links, but there are some, such as those directing to Amazon or eBay. This means that if you use one of my links to buy something, I might receive somewhere between 1-5% of the value of your purchase from the retailer (obviously no cost to you).
I set this up because running this channel costs money via video editing software, music licencing, (not to mention buying head units and most of my evenings and weekends!) and I don't get paid for the reviews.
Anyway, I appreciate all of my viewers and subscribers and I am open to any suggestions you might have for me to improve the content.

I just wrapped up installing my Teyes 3 + 360 system thanks to your previous video. I did not manage to do the calibration for about a week after I installed the system, and the 360 view I had looks more like it does here because it does not have all the measurements to properly stitch the image. It is unfortunate that the manufacturer did not supply the measurement system like how the Teyes system does. The difference with a proper calibrated 360 camera system is amazing. Thank you for recommending the Teyes + 360 system, and for continuing to review other units.

Wow I’m glad I came across your channel! I have a 2011 Volvo XC70 with “high performance” audio. I cannot find a way to upgrade my stereo to something like this without losing climate control information since factory pipes that to factory little display the radio also uses. is there any way to control my climate control through these systems that would work on my car? Any systems that would work other than massively overpriced “bluepower blp-950a” as only company advertising this control for my car but specs are defiantly behind the times and hardware functionality is limited. I don’t know if Saab ever did something as stupid as volvo with this piping climate control info to same screen radio uses limiting upgrades. Being both Swedish and you got a bookshelf full of android audio, I figured maybe worth asking.

so lucky, i found your channel... i'm about to put an android head unit into the tiguan 2011 (eu, no facelift) i'll get soon... do you think, this unit (or similar ones) would fit? the way i understand it so far, is double-din-units will fit to the tiguan as long as you put the according cover around the double-din-frame...right?! and because the screen itself sits 'in front' of the dashboard (that's how it looks in your video (9.07)) it pretty much doesn't matter, how big the screen itself is!? i mean - wether 9inch or 10 or 11inch shouldn't be a problem, right?! and one last question in general - do you think a 4core 2gb/32gb-unit would be fine or would you suggest, one step bigger, to 8-core 3/4gb/32/64gb? thanks for a feedback in advance and thank you for your great work, reviewing all these units :)

You're correct about the screen sitting on top of the dashboard. When you're thinking about size, think about what is around the radio that a big screen will cover (buttons, vents ect). The 4 core CPUs are generally quite old and are slow, so definitely go for 8 core. The additional RAM on the higher spec model will also help you.

Great review and I've used this extensively installing and setting up my own, purchased a few months back. Went to install 360º cameras but no image shows from the 4 cameras in the 360 app. Wondering if you came across this and have a solution? Weirdly, it does show the cars original reverse camera if plugged into the RCA socket, as the back camera only in the 360 app. So it's as if there's a software configuration needed to tell it to look for the correct camera wiring harness for its images. I thought maybe connection issue with the harness, but tested the indicator trigger wires and they work as expected, so configuration rather than hardware. Any thought greatly appreciated.

After two months of trying, they offered me a AUD$50 refund. Kind enough, but no 360 cameras for me I'm afraid. It's not what I'd hoped for when buying this unit (360 cameras were the main selling point for me) but having got this far, we'll use it for a few years yet and look at an upgrade in the future I guess. NOT from these folks though. Very unimpressed that there is zero support available. In the future, we'll go with Teyes (per your suggestion) I reckon.

@@SaabUnleashed Here is exactly what happens. When I start the unit it goes into radio mode. I then back out of it an Vivid begins to start. It then prompts me for permissions needed for play/pause functionality. I tap "Allow" and it says "The function is not available on this device". I back out of that and it starts up and everything works just fine?!? Maybe Kroak renamed the permission file Vivid tries to access?

Thanks for the review. I just bought the unit and went through the troubles of installing all camera's (took me two days in total). Now I the automated calibration worked very good, I must say. The sideview camera's work when the indicated is turned on. However, the rearview camer does NOT open up when I am reversing, while I connected the "activation" cable to my rear light. Did you manage to get this rearview camera working correctly?

@SaabUnleashed Жыл бұрын
Yes works fine. Remember there are two sides to the "activiation" trigger wire. One side to the reverse light as you have done, and the other side to the corresponding wire on the loom on the back of the radio which is normally marked "back" or "reverse"

@@SaabUnleashed Ah, thanks. That cable I soldered directly to the input harnass of the camera loom, as I did with the indicator signals. So instead, it has to be connected directy to the 16 pin-ISO conenctor (pink wire). Actually makes sense, luckily we have a clear manual..... uh you! Thx again

I think it's one of those head units which are faking their RAM Capacity. I recently bought an android head unit, fairly cheap. Intstalled cpu-z and discovered that the 4GB ram is only 1GB in reality.

@@SaabUnleashed no you don't get paid for it, but getting the products for free is also a form a payment. And also the URL to Banggood is a referral url, so if people order then you get a commission. I don't know about the UK, as you guys left the European Union. But in the Netherlands, you are suppose to mention it how you got the product. Like did you buy it yourself? Was it send by the seller? Etc etc. I'm not saying you are dishonest in rating the headunit: just I have noticed that most of these head-units, are most likely provided for free by the reseller. I would never even once, consider to order from Banggood. One time I ordered a tablet from Banggood, which took like 4 months to deliver. Since then I only use AliExpress, when it comes to buying stuff from China.

Hi Guys, after watching the video, I purchased a unit from banggood, I used the discount code that came out to €248 but then banggood sent me an email saying they could not send the unit, if I would like to get it I needed to pay an extra €66 I did so and after really reading all the reviews on banggood I think I am going to regret the purchase. I will post again once the unit arrives. Nevertheless, thank you to the channel as its great to have someone reviewing android units.

If they accepted a coupon and then told me they wouldn't honour the sale, I would have personally just walked away, regardless of how good the unit is. I wonder what that was about. Did they tell you why? Regarding regretting the purchase, I don't think you will. This video was quite transparent with regard to it's performance, including it's flaws so there shouldn't be any surprises when you recieve
