Camry navigation stereo review

Put this Pumpkin Android 10 double din car stereo in a Camry. Wasn’t sure on some of the instillation. Sent email to the support that they have and they replied quickly. They even followed up to make sure everything was working properly. (I was the one who didn’t thoroughly read the instructions which caused me to be unsure, my answer was right in front of my face in black and white). The unit is user friendly and has awesome features. Can’t wait to see what the next thing these guys come up with. Will recommend to anyone. The screen is clear and responds well!




Are car covers worth it?

 

You won’t always be able to park your vehicles indoors, but you can protect your vehicles with car covers. The car cover is a piece of the material fitted to slip on and off of your car relatively easily, protecting it from weather, bird droppings, harmful UV rays and wear when you aren’t driving it. There are many benefits of utilizing a quality car cover. The lifespan of your vehicle can be enhanced, and using one can protect the paint of your vehicle. Car covers are the most effective way to keep your vehicles safe from the elements no matter where you end up having to park them.

 

The following are things you will be able to protect your vehicle from by using a car cover:

  • Ultraviolet (UV) rays
  • Snow and hail
  • Rain and frost
  • Dirt and dust
  • Birds and other wildlife
  • Falling tree debris
  • Storms and wind damage

Compared to the loss in vehicle value, the investment in a quality car cover is worth it. It can lower all of these risks efficiently.




Surprisingly good unit for my Ford

1

I installed this Android 10 Head Unit 7″ Double Din head unit in a 2005 Ford Ranger. The install wasn’t bad but I did have to cut out more of my dash. I had previously cut out some for the deck that was in here before. Not a big deal but worth noting. That could be just because my truck is old too. Hahaha.

As for the unit itself, everything is great. It’s very responsive. I’ve seen some reviews of people saying they’re responsive but the video suggests otherwise. This one is very snappy with that new p6 CPU.

AM/FM works great. I use Spotify premium and download my music so I always have it. That also works flawlessly so far. I’ve also downloaded a large area around me in Google maps, though I do usually use my phone as a Hotspot.

Torque connects quickly and works well with my obd2 connection. I do see there is a review talking about this not working. It’s possible I just happen to have the right type of OBD2 connector. I know there are some that say they may not work with Android head units.

I also ran all 3 USB connections out under my dash. It does run my charger and my dashcam with no issues.

So far, after about a week I’m VERY happy with my purchase. I was worried as there was only one review in here at the time with no written reviews.

Now for the bad stuff.

There isn’t really anything bad, just different.

My biggest complaint/wish is that the music controls could be kept on the screen always. If I have torque up, I have to switch apps back to Spotify or the radio to change anything. With Google maps and Waze, they do have a Spotify interface which helps a bit.

My other gripe is that you can’t seem to adjust the widgets on the home page. It has the clock and radio controls which are nice but I can’t move them or even put the Spotify widget on the unit. It’s not a huge deal and it just takes a minute to get used to.

Overall, I would absolutely buy this again. I’d recommend this to anyone who is looking for an android deck.
