Android 13

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 are lucky if they are really Android 11, not to mention Android 13.

The device info on all those HU are spoofed.

On my Android HU that was claimed to have Android 11 can't even install the Google Map that is Android 11 friendly version. Can only install previous version. Many features not available.

So take their claims with buckets of salt.

Look for TS10 processors.

I’ll be primarily be using apple car play so will it still need to install google maps on the device?

So should I look for TS10 with Carplay supported device?

Go read my review in the Car forum.

If you use Carplay / Android Auto, sound quality will be greatly affected 'cos it doesn't go through the DSP of the head unit. Sounds like crap.

Calls are not picked up through Carplay, but through HU's own bluetooth connection to the handset.

Crappy and confusing cos they are not implementing real carplay.

Suggest you go for proper product like Kenwood, might not have big 9" 10" screen but it's proper car play integration. Careful about one fake Kenwood android HU in shitpee / lapsapda going for 400 around there.
