Perfect

This was a great replacement for the aftermarket unit that my car had when I bought it .Easy install although I took my time soldering the wires instead of crimping them or twisting them .The one in my hand is the old one I replaced that was missing the volume button 🥴. Over all I highly recommend this product for the price

its great replace old cassette am/fm radio in my 1993 ford ranger. easy wiring and perfect fit in OEM radio opening. it looks like a factory installed unit and sound is great. would buy again

By far, this is the worst radio I have ever purchased. I installed this device 6/13/2015 and have had nothing but trouble.1. The sound quality - The sound quality of the device is sub par. Even for a cheap radio it sounds amazingly cheap. The treble seems to have taken over the entire audio output and the only semblances of "Bass" are a joke. If you do not have an amplifier or amped sub, forget about bass. The equalizer does not help. You get to select from treble, more treble with foggy bass, less treble with foggy bass, all treble. You get the point here. You will get better audio from a cheap pair of headphones plugged in your phone.2, The buttons - the button quality is astoundingly bad. Several times I pressed the power button to have nothing happen. Luckily it comes with a remote that allows you to power it on from there. If you get this device, expect to be pressing buttons several times to get one action to happen.3. User Interface - This was a bit of a concern. Seems like they tried to rethink things a bit and got them all wrong. Aux is not labeled Aux, it is An1 or something of the like which looks like Antenna. Bluetooth is listed as BR (bluray). FM is some horrible collection of letters and numbers that I ignore.4. Bluetooth - THIS WAS THE MAIN REASON I BOUGHT THIS DEVICE and yet it is possibly the most dreadful Bluetooth (BT not BR) experience that I have EVER had with ANY device EVER. This was so bad that I will have to breakdown for you what all happened.Day One, install went well. but my Galaxy Note 2 would not connect. After I restarted the device it connected. After being disheartened by the lackluster audio quality I debated removing the device, but left it installed so that I could continue to test it.Day Two: In the morning the device would connect without issue. Music would play and, while the audio quality was deplorable, it was nice to have access to my music via Bluetooth. On the ride home, the device connected as it did in the morning except the connection must have been bad. The music was garbled. I disconnected the Bluetooth and reconnected it, same thing. Played the music from my speaker on the phone, no issue. reconnected and played the audio, garbled. Made a stop by the store and when I came back out to continue my ride home, the connection was fine and the garbled sound was no longer there.Day Three and Four: In the morning the device connected fine and on the way home the sameDay Five: The device struggled to connected on the way home. I was starting to think it was heat related, but it was the coolest day of the week.Day Six: The device only connects to Phone Audio not Media Audio. Restarted my Note 2 and turned off the vehicle (and power to the device) . After I power them back up I repair and connect them both, same issue. I tried the same again, same issue. The device would not connect to media services. Tested the phone on my BT earbuds, connected without an issue. Only the radio itself would not work properly.I would like to say I could return the device, but I damaged it after many days of torture. It was my chance to strike and now the glass over the LCD is broken rather badly.If you want to buy the device after these warnings, at least wear gloves with some padding. My knuckles now hurt. This device is my number one regret so far this year. Save your money and get some sushi or tickets to the movies, but do not, I repeat, do not get this device and expect anything good out of it for any amount of time.***Update - USB is now part of the problem***While I had hoped that the device would at least let me use USB, even that is sporadically failing. The USB seems to power cycle at times. If you have anything connected to USB (like I have a USB Bluetooth dongle because the onboard bluetooth is that bad) the connected device will restart. In this day and age I am pretty sure it is more difficult to make a device with this many problems than it is to not.

Just came in today; I have to admit I'm impressed with it so, far it not the loudest head unit I've had over the years but I didn't want something that was loud since I'm in a 1990 Ford Ranger single cab pickup that I've been slowly getting to proper order just to get back and forth to work in, I do like the Bluetooth in it not as good as some but for the money it decent enough, and at lease if I have a call from my Doctors office to set up appointment real quick without pulling over to the side of the road to answer, haven't tried the SD card slot out yet though not sure if I will use the feature or not since I'm not really in to playing with MP3 Folders over the years on other Head Units, but as of now I'm giving it a thumbs up for a simple light weight audio system.Update: I knocking off a two stars unless I figure out, why I can't get music streaming to work, I can get my bt to work with Hand Free Calling, though all of the sudden, Music Streaming quit working no matter what I do, disconnect est. so not sure why it quit all of the sudden it do this till I last called my mom to let her know I was on my way home from coming home late from work, so she didn't worry since I have Low Blood sugar and SeizuresSecond update; went out to the truck this afternoon to figure out what was going after having a hum in the speakers and found out that positive wire came loose, it was just dangling from the wire nut though still was on enough to give it energy for fm only, so after changing it with a smaller nut my bluetooth and stereo is totally operational again so bumped my rating back up
