We are focus on ALLWINNER V553 for the Carplay solution,but it seems most brand prefer to use the poorer CPU.If you are interested in better quality,I think we can support you create the best brand.

Nice video Luke - detailed and very thorough test - I was considering a Podofo unit, but not now. One comment I have regarding the FM range. I had a Bluetooth / FM transmitter to connect my iphone. What I noticed when in busy towns is radio interference. This may have been that the channel 87.5Mhz was being used by a local radio station but I also cnsidered that if other people have these units in close proximity then it is possible their FM transmitters are causing the interference I experienced. This is was not a one off as it frequently occured when travelling through busy traffic areas. I actually removed the external aerial to help reduce the interference.

Hi Torque Steer How about adding Carpodgo to this? Looks like a more premium product priced at around £200 with solid design and build quality however it would be interesting to see how it compares to these 6. Really good work!

Great video, but IMHO is missing one critical thing - most of cheap Carplay devices have junky screens with low nit brightness. Wish screens were tested against glare in s sunny day. I've got $40 Carplay that is great connecting to the car and iPhone, but screen is total crap during summer, can barely see anything at noon

that's absolutly important.

Excellent video but I desperately wish one of these companies would offer a 4K wireless/solar powered version of the backup camera! Thanks

I have a Eonon P4 and Im super duper happy with it. Its just great. I wish the refresh rate was 60hz, but thats the only thing I could wish for.

Try testing carpodpro t3 pro.

How about a category for "flexibility of mounting / Mounting Options".....thanks for the great video!

@Too-Odd Ай бұрын

The Carpuride didn't have to load up software for a front camera, so it makes sense that it would be faster, but no camera could be a deal breaker.

@Payynnee299 2 ай бұрын

Brilliant video! Are you open to suggestions for other screens? I have a 9" Spedal that I'd like to see how it stacks up against the rest. I agonised for weeks between this, the Carpodgo T3 and the Roadtop 8.9. Adding these three would be extremely interesting.

@TorqueSteer 2 ай бұрын

I'll look into it, thanks for the suggestions :)

@Payynnee299 2 ай бұрын

Also, a big deciding factor for me was whether the units had 'dual bluetooth' so that my phone's audio can still be linked to the vehicle for calls and music, so the unit is effectively a screen only. Looking forward to further updates 😊

@adamarndt7617 Ай бұрын

Do any of these screen support being installed upside down and having the screen rotate 180 degrees? (I want to mount one of these in my 1970s classic car and the best place would actually be UNDER the top edge of the dash).

It looks to me like you have the wrong settings on the Podofo. BT projection just uses the head as a display for the phone. The sound goes through the vehicle's BT audio.

Apps like Bloomberg and CNBC crash my unit, is this a bad video card or not enough RAM? Who wins with the reliability of apps

Well done mate, you really went deep into these, it helped with my choice it was the Carpuride, but that's a big no for me. Eon p4is the one. Pat yourself on the back for your hard work we need more like this 👍

Actually, they all came from a Chinese manufacturer, so we only need to focus on the product code, not the brand. I bought a K720; the stand is very low, so I cannot set the camera high enough to watch the lane. One very important function is split screen between the cam recorder and map guidance, but it's funny that the expensive machine doesn't have this feature, while the cheap one does.

@brandonfeliciano4615 13 күн бұрын

Do any of these have wired CarPlay? Wired is usually not as laggy

@blowawayvids 18 күн бұрын

The single best thing is Carpodgo T3 Pro. Like literally nk competition...

@christopher33277 Ай бұрын

Another that you could test in the future is the CarpodGo t3 pro, its the only one i've seen thats different than all the others in terms of connection, its on my wishlist atm but i currently run the carpuride w103 which is decent but it has it's issues
