Kenwood DMX8020DABS 17.7 cm WVGA Digital Media Moniceiver with DAB+, Wireless CarPlay, Android Car, Android Mirroring, Wifi, Dual USB, HI-Res Audio, Capacitive Touch Screen.

In the box, you'll find the stereo itself, as well as a wiring loom to connect to your car (you'll probably need an adapter as well). There's a microphone (for handsfree calls), a USB extension (for connecting your phone) and a GPS antenna for using Google Maps. The key selling point of the Kenwood DMX8020DABS is its Apple CarPlay/Android Auto compatibility. If you haven't used these before, they're brilliant – just connect your phone (via Bluetooth or old-fashioned USB) and you can access all your favourite apps on the move. Or some of them, at least (Spotify, Google Maps and Waze to name a few). I believe this unit also supports custom wallpapers, so I might see if I can use the silhouette there as well. Note: If your "USB" connected devise does not function (e.g. iPhone4, etc. ), please re-connect your "USB" device using " iPod 1 USB port".

Attention

We might upgrade our phone every couple of years to keep up with the latest technology, but most of us won’t renew our cars quite as often. This can leave us looking enviously at the newest models with their DAB radios, voice activation and perfect integration with smartphones. Apple CarPlay gives iPhone users an intuitive way to make calls, use Maps, listen to music and access messages with just a word or a touch. With iOS 12.0 and higher, 3rd party navigation apps like Google Maps™ are also supported. Wireless connection is available on compatible iPhones. High-Resolution Audio is high-quality sound that far exceeds CD standards and can play 192kHz / 24bit audio files. It captures and beautifully expresses details and nuances from the ultra-high to low frequencies. High-Resolution Audio Capturing all the details, from your favorite artists’ every breath, to the complex soundscape that surrounds them.
