Sony XAV-AX4000 7-Inch Multimedia Receiver with Wireless Car Play/Android Auto and Maestro Ready (XAVAX4000)

Love the unit. Had it professionally installed and it works fantastic. Syncs to my phone seamlessly and the sound quality is very good. The touch screen is responsive and easy to navigate and the unit has most features needed to enjoy music and listen/take phone calls. You can even upload photos to the unit. I haven’t tried that one yet, but it is a very good unit and looks amazing in my 2011 Jeep JK.

Overall good, especially taken in account the money compared with other 2-3 big boys. Installed on 2009 Super Duty F-250.Pros: Great sound as usually Sony does; CarPlay is flawless, so some complains here are rather biased; Boot time is very good; Has option to setup remote keys; One more extra is Maestro compatible; Great microphone; Plus some more extras no that important to me.Cons: A warning screen at boot without an option to turn off, some radios even offer customizable boot with setting car brand logo which puts Sony lagging here; Irritating is the upgrade with USB Tethering not working for my iPhone 14; The USB upgrade worked but with giving before it an error for not compatible USB media, because it tried to play it. Well, the software should be smarter than that, detecting it's under "Upgrade" menu and no need to attempt play music just at it; The screen resolution could be better.The game-changer here is the CarPlay and Android Auto. CarPlay is fast, just a small lagging of couple hundred miliseconds. Getting iPhone apps playing on a radio is a huuuge extra.The cheap remote worked fine after going through keys-setup.

Put this radio in a 2016 ford focus, sounds amazing. very clear audio on stock door speakers. My only other aftermarket radio went out. 10/10 would recommend this product, wireless apple carplay makes a huge difference. I love the hpf and lpf for door speakers and subs, the preamp outputs arent as strong but its very much clear nonetheless. Head unit functionality is incredible.

I love this head unit. Works perfectly and isn’t too annoying compared to other head units on the market! Clean display.

I installed this in a 2005 Jeep Wrangler. Installation was not a problem. Sound is decent. Overall quality is good. Everything seems to work, when it works. But, sometimes it seems to lose it's mind. So far I've had the screen go black and it has started scanning channels on it's own. The only way I could get it to stop was to turn off power.I'll try a firmware update and see if that helps. It not, it may be returned.

At first, the unit worked fine. Then Android Auto started "skipping" audio and restarting itself. I tried a variety of trouble - shooting methods to fix the issue, including the following:1. Updating firmware on the head unit2. Disconnecting and reconnecting to Bluetooth3. "Forgetting" and reconnecting the head unit to my car4. Tried connecting the head unit to my phone via a USB-c cable5. Restarting the system6. Uninstalling and reinstalling Android AutoNothing seemed to fix the issue. The head unit still experiences very frequent disconnects/restarts and skips audio. I will be returning this and probably buying a Kenwood unit instead for around the same price.

Huge upgrade over my OEM AC delco radio. Looks great in the dash. All controls are intuitive, no need to read any operating manuals. Installed easy with the correct Metra kit. Makes my older truck feel new.

Love the quick wireless connection. Will never own another system that isnt wireless. Apple car play is a huge plus. Hands free talki on my iphone👍🏻 Paired with an inexpensive set of rockford fosgate 6 1/2 in the front and pioneer 4 1/2 x 9 in the back makes for HUGE UPGRADE in an old 2001 chevrolet silverado work truck. Adding a back up camera as well for hooking up trailers. Very pleased with it. Installation was very easy with the metra GM wiring harness adapter i purchased separately. Would buy again
