I wouldn't be fooled by the .com.au website, still a Chinese unit same as most of the ones to be found on eBay. The website and reviews are in chinglish as well. Not that being a Chinese product means it's crap neccessarily. There are some good looking ones on Aliexpress as well.

I really like the "Tesla" style ones but you lose the cubby hole and USB ports at the bottom.

If you do go ahead with it I would love to hear how well the integration with the car systems is done.

Oh I'm fully aware that its a Chinese built unit (Russian company), but i did quite a bit of research on this unit vs the unbranded ebay units and there is a big difference between them.. I just pulled the trigger on the 6gb RAM/ 128gb ROM version so I'll update once i fit it.. I might even make an install video..

There are a heap more settings and controls that you can only access via the head unit though.

Good video on upgrading to a late model head unit or, if you are going the after market route, a good tutorial on disassembly of the panel.

Nice one [emoji106].. def going aftermarket, i want the QLED goodness and all the freedom that a pure android unit will offer, it will essentially be the same as having a tablet in the dash, but with full integration to the vehicle..

Oh, also has in dash OBD2 features [emoji7]

door lock/unlock options
headlight off delay on engine off
horn and indicator flashing
equaliser settings
bluetooth pairing
etc etc
