Here, our head unit review, written by a buyer. A Link to the original post you could find at the end of this article. I have installed the head unit alone, the installation took all my day, but now I understand that I could have done it during one or maximum two hours.
The head unit well catches a radio stations. The sound quality is good, but I'm not a music fun. I could say certainly - it sounds better than a factory head unit. Video or music can be playback either from the SD card or from the USB / AUX input, or from CD/DVD disks (as for me, I don't use it anymore). I have had a sad experience of installation the car audio on Android OS before the SMARTY Trend head unit. So I have already known what to pay attention to. The correct work of the steering wheel buttons and Bluetooth connection for making calls - were important for me. The SMARTY Trend head unit does that job perfectly, instead of its predecessor. You need to learn the buttons before the first use, and then, they work properly. Phones Pairing via Bluetooth comes without problems. I try to connect to head unit such phones as Samsung, LG, iPhone and even the old Nokia and everything works well. You can transfer phone numbers to the head unit.
I have already had a rear-view camera, and it was easy to connect it. It Works perfectly. The appearance of the radio is looking good, you don't need any frames, everything looks regular and just fine. I liked that all the wires are included. Such car audio systems like Clarion, MACROM, Kenwood, Pioneer, Alpine you would need to supplement with all sorts of expensive adapters. SMARTY Trend head unit is good, I satisfy.
