Customer Ratings & Reviews

So far so good

No complaints about product arrival. Tracking online was easy and accurate. Instructions for installation were clear (I personally installed it). Upon powering it up no issues. Sound is really nice even with stock speakers. Menus are intuitive with almost no need for instructions. So far my issues are Bluetooth connection and navigation. When powering unit on Bluetooth doesn't always connect my music and play where left off. I have to go to Bluetooth settings and disconnect/connect back and then it will play where left off. Using iPhone5. There are no additional settings related to that. Navigation is not as accurate as my TomTom's. No accurate position or direction are displayed once going off marked streets or performing tight manoeuvering. For instance I had to fill up a couple of times and since it involves tight manoeuvering unit did not register what is my correct direction/position and what direction should I take once leaving gas station. For those reasons I can't give it 5 stars. There is still a lot to play with since I have tried only CD, radio and Bluetooth. Looking forward to nicer weather for that.

Great looking radio with buggy features

I recently purchased this radio to go in my 2006 Audi A4. Installation wise, it was an exact fit. I was excited about the new features of this radio and some of them are actually great. The capacitive touchscreen is amazing and way better than the older Pioneer unit I used to have. The navigation on this unit is also amazing.

Where this unit falls short is the Iphone compatibility. The radio will not recognize my phone is even connected. I am used the USB connection and it simply does not work.

Not so happy with price

i am not so happy with the price I paid it's a little too much on the high side if you know what I mean anyway the 8000 avic nex i choose over the 7000 I like the touch screen it's so responsive and full of features which I may never use but it's definitely a big difference in sound quality plus it's fits in my sti flawlessly no trimming needed with kit everyone thinks its factory I imported the Subaru sti logo in the background at screen with just a simple as card plus the gps is great I have yet to find fault with it

Pros outweigh cons

Pros
-Looks great
-helpful navigation features
-sleek design
-quick, responsive touch screen

Cons
-No OFF button (you can turn the display off, but the unit is still on)
-No brightness control (or I have yet to find it)
-Unit disables more features than just video display while moving*

*I understand why the emergency brake must be Applied to watch video. But also disabling navigation settings also does not make sense from me. Having to pull over on the highway so I van put my e-brake on to edit a destination is far from convenient.
