All around great headunit.
This head unit replaced an Kenwood double din. Kept the same amps, speakers, and reverse camera.
The sound is so much better. I used the built in auto equalization using the Pioneer mic and 5 minutes later my system sound night and day better. I spent a lot of time with REW adjusting the 3 band parametic and the Kenwood along with the amp gains and I could nowhere near this sound.
The screen on this thing is awesome. It is even better than the AHV-5700 I have in another car.

`Nice upgrade
Best part of this radio is that you can have two bluetooth devices connected at the same time. I can still receive calls and my daughter can still play her music. Now that's cool!

Good, Not Quite Great
This is overall a pretty good head unit. Sound quality is great, the interface is mostly very easy to use and navigate. I love the FLAC support and the wide range of video formats. However, there are a couple issues with the overall usability and functionality which are so aggravating, they border on deal breaker.
1.) AppRadio is a terribly designed product. The interface is not very intuitive, and often there are issue getting it started. The app requires that you install a separate keyboard on your smartphone in order to function properly. This keyboard is app is so bad, that I have to switch my default keyboard settings everytime I want to plug and unplug the phone. The map/nav part of AppRadio is horrible. It can't find anything by name. Has to be exact addresses only. It says it pulls it's information from Google, but it was unable to locate certain locations of stores. When I unplugged my phone and just searched in Google Maps it found the places instantly. Very annoying.
2.) Issues when using thumbdrive—The single most annoying aspect of this head unit is that, when in shuffle mode, you can't go 'back' on a track. It's so ridiculous.
3.) Bluetooth is very clunky with my Android Phone.

Love it. Way better than Kenwood
Bought the Kenwood 573 model with the same features and hated it. It was slow, bad FM HD reception, quirky iPod connections and bad sound.
The PIONEER is Soooo much better. Fast, much better HD reception, better and smoother sound and fast operation. Its 100% better than the Kenwood

This is the one to get!
So, I did a ton of research before purchasing a new Head Unit for my 2013 Honda Civic Si. Some of the Kenwoods looked nice, but really liked the equalization options on the Pioneers. So, after narrowing down that far, I had all but decided on a Pioneer 4100NEX because it has Android Auto (I'm an Android guy) and a big thing for me was to be able to use Spotify on the radio itself (like actually be able to go through my playlists and stations). Well, then I came across this new AVH-x5800BHS, which says for ANDROID devices, you can control Spotify over Bluetooth with the built-in Spotify button/source. So, I made the purchase and got it professionally installed. IMPORTANT: The Spotify over Bluetooth feature does not work until you get it home and do a firmware update! I freaked out because it wasn't working and finally realized the latest firmware introduces that feature.
Overall, this is a great Head Unit with no flaws that I have found yet! HD Radio, Spotify, Pandora, DVD, great equalization options, very nice touch screen with great brightness (I believe they used the touchscreen from the NEX models on this one).
Definitely recommend!

Biggest Piece of S%$T I have ever owned!
I used to have an AVIC-Z1 and loved it. Bought this stereo because my truck was stolen and figured Pioneer would be good to stay with. Difficult to set up, front speaker pre-outs sound very tinny, sub pre-outs dont work. Have tried everything to get this heap to live up to the reviews I read before purchase- bout to smash it with a hammer- back to square one.

Love Pioneer products..
To start, out with the 4300dvd, and after 6 weeks of research and driving 'tuneless', the 5800bhs model graced my dashboard. Vivid, clear screen, listening to Pandora commercial free, watching dvds, and the topper,,, HD radio. My truck rocks once again. The eq is nice, and I'm still tweeking the levels. The only thing is wish would go away from the screen after a few seconds would be the preset numbers down the left side of the display. Maybe i haven't found how to do it, maybe.. great radio none the less.....

Great Head Unit for the Price
I love this unit. Great sound and a huge upgrade to the stock unit on my GMC Acadia. The multiple Bluetooth is nice but the thing I love most is the sound. Every pioneer deck I have owned has always had exceptional sound and this one continues to shine.

Great stereo
Bought this stereo to replace a Kenwood. The Kenwood stereo stop working two weeks before the warranty ended. I want to thank Sonic Electronix for honoring the warranty. This stereo has a checkered button that when you press it you can make it play music from your phone or call someone without going threw your phone book. You can also send a text all with one touch of a button. I reviewed many stereos to find the features and quality I was looking for the stereo is awesome. Great 7 inch screen very easy to use and for the price it'one of the best stereos out there. Highly recommend.

Nice unit
For 300 bucks- you just can't beat it.
Cons- does not use apple play.
- the app usage is a little wonky- but you won't die.
Pros- plenty of power if you're looking for more sound. Replaced my stock Honda Element and now the sub actually sings.
- Bluetooth
- hands free
- tons of settings to choose from
- I can use the waze app on my phone and it appears in full screen

Excellent Head Unit!!!!!
Purchased this radio for bluetooth capacity, and the ability to listen to a DVD bible, since dcd is less discs. Got a great price from Sonic like always, the the head unit looks, and works great. Did not get the proper double din faceplate, but like always Sonic owns up to their customer service and sent me the faceplate super fast and free. Been doing business with Sonic for over 5 years and will continue to do so. They have great people with a large array of knowledge and experience. Thank you Sonic Electronix for your great products, and customer service

Nice head unit
I put this unit in my 2000 Silverado. The touch screen looks and works great. The dual camera inputs are nice. I would suggest getting a micro bypass if you have kids so you can play DVDs while driving
