Kenwood is a good brand, i dont see the spec listed on the site. is it android?

The second model you have listed is 2GB RAM, its over priced for that spec.

Anyways, if you are changing the player to have multiple app to be used, then get the one with 4GB RAM.

Take a look at the previous post, if it meets your requirement..search along that line

I think Kenwood is using their own software. Even their own site does not mention anything about android.

Alright, will take a look at Issotta. Their pricing seems affordable. In a dilemma to pick between this or Kenwood now. Kenwood because it will last(reliable?) while Issotta is cheap for its functions.

Yup thats the standard OEM...similar to the one I have, although some local company put a brand on it. Mine is called Convex. But i bought 4 years ago. Then it was very expensive, almost 2k!  cry.gif

Currently price had dropped alot...my random check showed for less than rm400...do check it out. It will be good if they installation as well.
Mine I have connected to 360 camera and recorder as well. Mine was older model so it comes with 4USB. I think newer model only has 2 USB.

The shop that you linked, they quoted me for the following:

RM700, built-In DSP, 48 EQ, Android 10, 2GB RAM, 32GB ROM.
RM250, can bus, casing, plug and play socket.
RM60, installation.
RM38-RM150, reverse camera.

I think the following link is most likely the product:
https://shopee.com.my/ISSOTTA-9-10.1-IPS-AN...5527.6420848163

They mentioned that the can bus is for connecting the player to my steering wheel. Is this true?

Based on this price point, would getting the Kenwood + Rear Camera combo be better since it's cheaper? Or will I need to add on to this cost for the can bus as well?

If really dificult for me to recommend here, bro..it your choice.

If I were to buy one today, i wont go anything less than 4GB RAM, older player came with android 4 modified for car player, it wasnt memory hungry, but with android 9 and above, and especially if you are gonna utilize the player like your phone with youtube, waze, google maps, extra, I wont go with 2GBRAM unless you are going to use as it is....

The Kenwood, is really nice, but the they are not revealing much on the spec, hence i dont know if its worth it.

buy px6 its have the best performance

somehow most of android unit have poor radio reception

but with px6, its android is so smooth.

though priced at high price, still below 1k.

so far only enjoy internet radio/spotify/youtube music on it while waze.

i tested player below rm300, claim 2gb ram + 32gb memory

but takes you almost long times just to load waze, not worth it.

android HU + AGAMA Car launcher = best experience

But just need to vet thru the seller, since its not local seller

What car you going to install.. If your current car have steering button you just need a set of wiring adapter to match your factory HU socket and with this you can PnP only without cutting any wire.. I will go for Kenwood for 3 camera support coz doesn't need to add switcher to change camera..
Can check here which type your factory HU socket type..

2003 E46. Sorry for the really stupid question but what is the 3 camera support for?

Do I need to get a new can bus to wire it to the steering wheel as mentioned by the shop?

You need wire harness to match back your factory hu socket.. coz steering button wiring -> Clock Spiral (Upper socket) then Cock Spiral (lower socket) -> HU socket.. wiring is there edi.. you just need wire harnes match to this socket & the other end match with new HU socket.. just like HDMI - WGA adapter cable, you need this adapter when your laptop have HDMI port & Led Monitor only got WGA port.. this also apply to car HU unless you dont mine to cut factory wiring/socket..

Support 3 camera mean that HU got 3 camera input without need additional switcher.. If you have 3 camera (Rear/Front/Side).. all this camera can connect direct to HU & at HU got CAM button where you can select which camera you want to see..

Hi all, I have a question
I am currently using an Android head unit with 16gb.
The storage is not enough to have all my songs from Apple music and Spotify.
It has two USB port to connect, is it possible to attach one pendrive to one of the USB ports and so the storage can increase let's say to 32/48/64gb?

Meaning the Android head unit can use the storage of the pendrive as its own?
Edit: haven't tried it yet

Maybe you want to explain a little further on your requirement?

Android player is just a display module and can connect to your gear switch, hence when you shift your gear, it will show the camera view either reverse or frontal view.

True...but nowadays so many such players are flooding the market, just need to drive around to shops and find out. I fixed mine long time ago and damn bloody pricey then..
