Hi guys, need some recommendations on which one to get. I have a 2003 E46 sedan. Won't be using the actual unit much, would just play music from my phone via Bluetooth. Prefer to have decent sound quality, can control from steering wheel, will install reverse camera, and most importantly, can survive heat as the car is parked under the sun.

I'm not sure which brand or model to go for. Kenwood with JVC rear camera combo seems to be the easiest for a noob buyer like me.

Such as this combo, coming from their official Shopee store:

I have seen some ranking lists also suggesting Eonon. On their Shopee site, they have a lot of different models with similar specs, I'm not sure which one to go for for my needs. They even have some models that specifically state that they are for E46s. I'm probably hella stupid, but it's not worth the price premium compared to their standard models right? Or it's because they will come with proper casings for E46? Will get their reverse camera as well if I were to go for their head unit.

Here's the link to their official Shopee page:

Any other suggestions with better quality or price points? Or I can get separate branded head units with JVC's reverse camera?

Thanks for any feedback or help.

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.

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?

Thanks for the feedback again.

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?
