UPTO DATE INTERIOR
The media could not be loaded. Bought this as it had everything I was looking for in a headunit. Did look at brand names Sony etc.. But wanted full android Google play . And this has it all. Bought the rear Atoto camera also . (NOT FITTED YET).This was fitted in a Honda Fn2 Type-R. And I opted to get the genuine fascia. The Atoto trim I had to sand down around the edges on the bigger trim in order to fit. Was time consuming as I didn't want to rush and make it look a mess. Used the Connect 2 leads and did have to connect the wires for the steering wheel harness. Key 1 to steering wheel key#(+) , Key2 to steering wheel (+) , Gnd to Gnd. Once you hook these up in the right order you then can configure the controls to which button does what. Very straight forward as the manual is easy to follow. I would say Atoto customer service is very very good. I have contacted them a few times and always got a response back.I have put the picture up of the button configuration as the manual does not explain what buttons do what and I think it is important. Especially when you come to assign the buttons on the steering wheel.Android Auto works well even when the phone screen is locked. The main screen going through voice controls via Bluetooth is a bit to get used to. If your screen is locked then the command will say "unlock your phone then I can make the call". To get around this you will have to add the Atoto as a trusted Bluetooth device in phone settings. So keep your phone screen unlocked when you get into the car once your phone connects via Bluetooth then you can operate the controls via voice ie sending WhatsApp or make a call via Bluetooth. This will keep the connection even if the screen locks. But if the screen is locked before connecting to the Atoto via Bluetooth you will not be able to control calls WhatsApp etc..... A bit faffy.

Great quality and DIY fit
Fitted to a VW T6 Startline model. Amazing features list and a great quality picture. Added DAB+, Dash cam and reverse camera. NOTE. Plug in the GPS receiver before switching on!Before fitting I bought a fitting kit CTKVW26 from Dynamic Sounds. This made all the connections fit without any messing about but also included steering wheel canbus connector. The facia plates were also a must to fit the VW dashboard better.Sound quality out of the box is superb plus plenty of opportunity to tweak the equaliser if you need to.Comes preloaded with all the apps you'll need plus download anything else via WiFi from the app store. I'm happy with Google Maps and have downloaded most of the UK for offline travel to save battery on the phone. That said the Android pairs quickly to the phone if needed. With 64gb you can easily download Europe!What could be improved. There are 4 USB cables two are used for the dash cam and DAB+ leaving two tucked into the glovebox - at some stage I'll figure a way to neatly plug them into a blanking plate on the dashboard facia.

Great stereo with lots of features
I bought this double din stereo to upgrade my old stereo in my 2003 Lexus RX300. This has transformed the journeys now as we can listen to our music via Spotify, BT music, and take handsfree calls and much more. I done a lot of research before purchasing the S8 Ultra. I don't use all the features such as utilising the built in sim card, but android auto works wonders via Bluetooth/wifi. Android auto is the thing we use the most and my wife & I are very pleased with the performance. I've also used their customer support on a few occasions and the support is great. There's usually a few days delay in response but they are very helpful. Had the stereo for 1 year now and very pleased

Save your money, buy an actual brand like pioneer or sony
Worked great for 2 years, not it's just stuck on a reboot loop. Can't even load the interface to see what the problem is or hard reset. No response from Atoto yet either

Promising Product - But Does Require Some Patience in Fitting
There are lots of things to like about the Atoto S8 Ultima (Gen2) car stereo.Mostly, I like having the ability to use a wide range of Android apps, and not being limited to a handful of 'CarPlay' or 'Android Auto' compatible apps. I like having offline maps capability, and native SatNav without the need to use my phone.It is a shame that you can't use the SIM Card in the device for phone calls or texts.The harness for some reason, didn't have the amplifier wired up, so I had to cannibalise the spare harness to rig up an extra pin, and after that, I felt confident splicing some of the other wires needed to get the steering wheel control, reversing camera and aerial fully working,In general, it's behaving very well, and I'm very happy with it. I have found a useful forum on XDA and now have registered my device, so hopefully I can get the last few niggles ironed out and have a fully functional system.The responsiveness, and boot up time are great. Bluetooth unlocking is great. Carplay works really smoothly. I just need to find a way to get the cars OEM bluetooth module to connect up properly with the head unit and all the important parts will be taken care of.

Installation on Saab 9-3
I have installed this head unit in a 2007 Saab 9-3 Aero and the installation was reasonably simple.When you get the kit its a little daunting because they supply so many cables but once you realise you only need one the install is simpleThe kit comes with 2 ISO cables and I found it was cable B that was the one to use for the SAABI have since added steering wheel controls and front and rear Atoto cameras both of which works without a problemGreat product

Good quality unit at an affordable price
After ordering the correct harness, I did this up myself quite easily, including the atoto test view camera (which I order separately)Once fitted in, and a new fascia installed too, the stereo itself is rather easy to set up and use.If you register with the website, there is an update which makes wireless android auto work seamlessly.The only thing I've found which I don't like is not atotos fault, but actually Googles, because the Google assistant can't make calls when asked.
