Installing the Linkswell 12.1 inch screen into 2019 F150...update on bullshit customer service from phoenix automotive

Your stereo actually came with Navigation built in. It's that igo app on there. You just needed to set it up and assign it as the default nav app.

I agree wholeheartedly with you in regards to customer service. But you gotta cut them a little slack in regards to staying on the phone with you for six hours, and giving you a discount on a new screen when you weren’t even the original owner/purchaser of the screen. Most companies would have told you to pound sand when they found that out. That 12” screen looks pretty sweet. Wish I could put one in my 05 F350.
@WICKEDAUTO15 жыл бұрын
Which I told them that, after not getting ahold of them at all for 2days(them not knowing I didnt buy direct) I was pissed but then when they helped and the effort i was thrilled and thanked them repeatedly. But once you tell me something I expect you to stand behind it and that is where the problem lies, especially after I have actually paid for one. I am happy with the screen so far, I want to say I seem to remember either company having a screen that will work going back to an 04 but I'm not 100% on which one

It looks really nice. The slow boot, the Android platform not so conducive for IOS.... I just dont see what you get other than digital controls down a tablet. Performance over the 8" screen? Nah... Is it lock picked for Video use from a device? Dunno. Can you mirror cast from your phone or devices? Does it add more Wattage factory to the speakers? I just dont see what you get here besides some faux aesthetics which I will say looks pretty cool. But is Cool enough? What am I missing?

You would not be able to control the lighting as it doesnt have the sync interface. As long as your 450 has the same size screen/dash then it should work. I only rem seeing up to 350, best way to be sure would be to call them, super customer service!

What is your opinion on the linkswell (android 4.4) vs phoenix (android 8.1)? I would think phoenix would be a no brainer with it being a lot newer version, cheaper, plus more ram and better processor. I am waiting for phoenix's black friday deal and going to pull the trigger on it for my 2015 f150. Thanks man! great videos
@WICKEDAUTO14 жыл бұрын
So the fast boot is about the only thing that Phoenix has on linkswell in my opinion. Yes it has the 8.1 n all that but they have put these things out a couple months apart of each other, doesnt say a lot of research/testing has gone into it and with their absolute shit customer service I wouldnt get another one from them. Linkswell has been working on another updated version for some time and will be coming out with a gen 4 within the next month or so I believe.
