From my personal experience, its all the same, sourced from China OEM.

What's important is spec and the place you are installing from, if there is any issues, its easier to get back to them, especially if you fitting camera to it.

So, 4GB RAM should be the bare minimum for Android car headunits?

Mostly just split view with Waze and Youtube for traffic directions and listen music

Android 13

» Click to show Spoiler - click again to hide... «

Seller said android 11


Anyone used this before ? 4gb+64GB and android 13 and has carplay. And quite cheap also. Or should I save some money and get android 11 with 2gb+32gb instead?

My use is waze and apple music/spotify only and need the reverse camera

212 vs 284 so price is not much different.

you need to check the processor specs; likely very slow

For carplay and waze will it make much difference? Lets say if I get the 4+64gb variant. Might have a bit lag but won’t be that bad right?

Doesn't really matter if use AA/AC primarily since it piggybacks the phones processor (unless wireless AA/AC)
Touch abit slower but not really an issue.

Sos, bought a cheapo sub-100 AA/AC enabled unit (non-android)

Exactly what I was thinking so should be okay right ? If buy 2gb or 4gb not much difference? Android 11 vs 13 any difference? Since I’ll be using for apple carplay only even a cheaper one should be fine? I’m not much into watching netflix while driving anyway

Real or fake Android 13? You only can find out after you purchased.

Hi guys, need your input on this,,did some survey and research on ts10 hu

some selling at 590 and some selling around 610 for 4gb/32gb

i also found out some ts10 might come with a fan or no fan as I read some reviews the buyers posted.

the sellers are not responsive and dont really answer when n i ask


so should i get with a fan and does it really helps on the heat dissipation ?

I would suggest you go for the 4gb + 4g sim card type.

I m using the 2gb version, loading map, google etc would be slow.

the price diff is only few hundred buck. You may not know may be a year down the road you may need to use the android unit instead of Carplay / AC.

It is always convenient to use the player instead of Carplay.

even cheaper now, 11.11 sale, 538, what the heck.

If I knew earlier , would have waited for this price, and just this morning I checked on Shopee, they were giving out RM50 discount.

After deduction, is less than 500... what a steal!

Hiya guys, have been going thru this entire thread for the past couple of days. Truly a wealth of info here for an aged noob like me & now I can narrow my search for a proper Android HU. Appreciate all the sifus who have been educating all of us here.

Want to ask, if I have a stock unit GPS antenna unit (Navara NP300 2015), can i still use that with the Android Player or do I need to get a new one? Or is a GPS antenna really necessary?

Apologies if I missed any previous posts on this.
