(function() { P.when('cr-A', 'ready').execute(function(A) { if(typeof A.toggleExpanderAriaLabel === 'function') { A.toggleExpanderAriaLabel('review_text_read_more', 'Read more of this review', 'Read less of this review'); } }); })(); .review-text-read-more-expander:focus-visible { outline: 2px solid #2162a1; outline-offset: 2px; border-radius: 5px; } I was expecting this to be a pretty inferior radio due to the price being so much lower than name brands like Sony or Pioneer, but I was pleasantly surprised at the quality and build. While the sound quality will not blow you away, it was a noticeable upgrade to my stock GM radio in my old work truck, an '04 Chevy Silverado. If you're pairing this with a decent amp & quality speakers; I'm sure with would be sufficient for the average listener.Screen sensitivity is the one down side I've found so far - not super sensitive - but responsive enough that it functions without too much frustration. Just requires a couple milliseconds of patience (tough to find in today's world, I know).I mostly wanted this for the front and back camera's, but having Bluetooth capability was a bonus. Bluetooth pairs instantaneously with my iPhone XR. For calls, the microphone seems to be as good as your average headphones. No one I've talked to has complained about it being difficult to hear me. Talking both stopped in a parking lot and traveling at highway speeds.Picture quality for reverse camera is very bright and crisp. Tested DVD and this head unit has the ability to bypass the parking brake by grounding out the radio's brake trigger wire on any negative/grounded surface; I just grounded it to the mounting plate. So, you can watch DVD's without figuring out where to tap into your parking break wiring. (of course, I would never watch a DVD while driving down the highway - but a person could if they felt like being incredibly irresponsible and didn't care about the safety of their passengers or other people on the road - seriously - pay attention to the road while you drive) Picture quality is by no means 4k, but pretty good for DVD quality video. There are video outs if you want to run separate monitors for backseat passengers - I have not tested this, so see other reviews for more details.Overall, I'm ecstatic with this purchase. The price point is a massive bargain for the quality and features you'll get with this unit. If you're looking for an upgrade, but need to stay within a budget - or you just don't care enough to fork over a large chunk of money, this is a pretty good deal.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great stereo!

Love this! Great stereo! This is my third time buying a Boss stereo, and have been happy all three times. The prior model purchased a few years ago had a small glitch in transitioning between screens, but I didn't mind. It perfectly played mp3, CD, or DVD. THIS stereo works perfectly! Absolutely love it! Even shows the album cover a song came from. Haven't tried the "screen mirroring" feature yet (with the stereo showing / mirroring the screen of your smart phone), but everything else works wonderfully! Have had Boss double-din stereos installed in three Toyota vehicles over the years, and they've all fit great ~ two Tundra trucks and one Highlander SUV. Love that the stereo will read USB, SD, CD, or DVD. Great price and great stereo. Truly appreciate Bolo carrying! Thank you!

Overall, I am very pleased. My main reason for the replacement was the factory CD player stopped working. Secondary goal was adding bluetooth / handsfree, and also a 3rd party add/on backup camera system I had stopped working.This unit accomplished all three goals, and eliminated the use of the clumsy backup camera display and bluetooth headset, which was really more distracting than just using the phone.I ordered a dash kit and wiring adapter for use in a 2006 Chevy Colorado. The factory GM antenna won't fit into aftermarket radios, and the wiring adapter prevents having to cut the vehicle's factory wiring, although, you do have to "tap" splice a couple of the vehicle's wires.Most of the wiring was straight forward. You could easily use the tags on this radio's wiring harness and the wire callout on the wiring adapter's package to do 90% of the wiring, assuming your are not color blind.However, there are a few items which are not quite so obvious:This simple one is the "Parking brake" wire on this radio's wiring harness. The idea is you need to have the parking brake set in order to use the DVD player, otherwise a black screen and message will display when you try to play a DVD. I just tap spliced that wire to the ground lead so I can play a DVD without the parking brake set. I have no idea why I would ever do so, but I didn't want to wire it to the parking brake.The next easiest is the power from the backup lamps to the backup camera. I had to find a wiring diagram for my vehicle to see what color wire is used to power the backup lights. I think it was green on this chevy. The cable with the RCA connector and extra red wire is both the power for the backup camera, and the signal to the radio to let it know when the vehicle is in reverse. That red wire gets spliced directly to the radio's wiring harness, apart from the vehicle's wiring adapter, and the RCA connector plugs in on the bottom left port on the back of the radio (left is from the driver's position, with the radio in the dash). On the rear of the vehicle, the red wire is not only spliced to the camera's connector, but it is also tapped to the power for the backup lights, so you need both connections. The RCA jack on the rear, obviously, connects to the camera.The most difficult connection is the vehicle "ACC" power connection. This is just a signal, it doesn't power the radio. This 2006 Chevy Colorado did not have an "ACC" power connection in the factory radio harness. That factory radio is "always on", it just has a serial connection from the vehicle's computer to perform functions like sounding the chimes when you leave your keys in the ignition and open the door. - A function that will be lost with an aftermarket radio.The problem I had was figuring out where to tap the "ACC" power. I needed to find the correct wiring diagram for the ignition switch wiring on this vehicle. It turns out, there is only one wire that had "ACC" power on it. That wire runs from the ignition switch to the computer. On this vehicle, it was a white wire with a red stripe, and it was accessible under the driver's side dash (not "easy", but it can be done). The large connector to the left of the steering column disconnects by rotating the blue lever down (the lever is facing towards the rear of the vehicle in its normal position). It uses a cam to disconnect the steering column wiring from the vehicle's harness. Once the harness is disconnected, you can tap a length of wire (included with the camera's wiring) to the "ACC" wire. Then, re-connect the wiring harness (use the blue lever to secure the two parts back into position) and route your wire up to the radio, using some zip ties to secure it to some rigid objects in order to prevent it from getting caught in the accelerator linkage, or any other moving parts. Finally, splice that wire directly to the radio's "Accessory +" lead.My original plan to simply splice to the always-on lead from the "Radio" fuse left me with the problem that my phone stayed paired to the radio, even when I was inside the house. My secondary plan to just tap the power feed for the blower, since it is only on when the key is in the "run" position worked fine, until the blower speed was turned past "2". When the blower was on high, evidently there was enough voltage drop on that lead to turn the radio off.The features are largely intuitive. The backup camera comes on immediately when in reverse, even if the radio is off. The backup camera overrides any other function, including cell phone use. The phone continues to work, but you don't have any on-screen control while the backup camera is on, meaning when vehicle is in reverse.The bluetooth pairs easily. The phonebook function does not work with my phone (it is neither Android nor iPhone - Kai OS), but you can dial numbers onscreen, if you know the numbers to dial. Likewise, the call history doesn't work with my phone. The on-screen controls to hang up or mute a call are large and easy to use. Transferring from bluetooth to the phone seems to only work from the phone, or by turning the key off.The only thing that bugs me is you cannot manually tune the radio, or at least I haven't figured out how to do so. You just have up and down "seek" arrows, that pull in the next station that is strong enough. Not great if you are trying to set your AM presets. Probably fine for FM stations, or while traveling away from home.

The stereo was very easy to install, replacing an old double din stereo. I didn't need a mounting kit because of the previously installed stereo. Also, I was able to use the previous wiring harness to connect the Boss wiring to my vehicle. Purchasing the wiring and mounting kits for a new installation in a vehicle is a good idea. Great deal for the money.
