It’s ok, not great. Takes a lot of trial and error
UPDATE: Nov 18thFM radio only works for a couple stations again. I'm guessing the antenna cable came loos from the head unit. its a weird design because it plugs up from the bottom rather than horizontally into the back like most others. Downgrading to 1 star until i can get this sorted out. Will update if things changeORIGINAL REVIEWI’ve tried several of these Android radios for Jeep Wrangler JK. This one being the most expensive. Only had it installed a couple days so I can’t say if it’s worth the extra money or not, but so far I’m not impressed.First off , like most of these, there is almost zero documentation. It looks like there are lots of various settings and features but things aren’t intuitive and most of it isn’t covered or explained by the scant pamphlets that are includedI installed into a 2014 Jeep JK. Install was fairly easy once I figured out it’s possible to plug the white harnesses in upside down. When I did this the stereo still came on and bit steering wheel controls didn’t work. I have included pictures so you can see correct and incorrect plug orientationOnce I got the controls working the FM radio was barely getting any channels. The antenna adapter they give you doesn’t really fit the Jeep adapter properly and it doesn’t even fit in the radio that great. Luckily I had a different adapter left over from a different radio and decided to give that one a try. That was a HUGE improvement but I still wasn’t getting as many stations as I expected . After blindly poking around I found there is a settings screen on the radio app and mine was preset to UK for some reason. Switching it to USA made a lot more stations obtainable. It took me 45 minutes to figure this outAnother thing that was driving me crazy was the digital speedometer. It was set to km/h and I went crazy looking for a setting to figure out how to set it to mph. I even dug up the factory password and went through those menus. Nothing. Turns out if you just press on the screen long enough over the little car it automatically toggles to mph…..There were other things like this. Features and menu screens that have no explanation and aren’t at all intuitive. You’ll spend a lot of time guessing if you try to fine tune the experienceThe back up camera was another head scratcher. I assumed it would work like the higher end canbus units and just come on since the radio knows it’s in reverse ( the Jeep I was working on was an automatic). It didn’t work. What ended up finally working was I hooked the yellow wire on backup came harness to the black wire marked “ Rear Power” I left the red wire unhooked. I plugged the yellow int the CCTV yellow plug ( there are only 2 yellow plugs on the head unit, one is marked a front and the other just says CCTV video in ) On the camera end I plugged the yellow and red plugs together but didn’t even need to connect the ground. This worked fine but the down side is the camera gets power whenever the radio is on so I’m not sure if it will kill the camera prematurely. I’m not too worried about it since these cameras are pretty cheap and the plus side is if I was hauling a trailer or something I could view the rear camera while driving down the road.Wireless car play seems to work fine. I used a different microphone than the one that comes with it but I’m happy with CarPlay and Bluetooth so farI expected this radio to have a slot for a micro sd but if it does I can’t find it.Another thing I didn’t like was the whole foot print of the unit. In the picture it shows the heat sinks and wiring coming off the bottom at a right angle facing up. I thought this would be great because if you needed to add or remove accessories you could just remove the dash and leave the head unit in place because you would have access from above. Nope. My radio has the heat sinks and connections coming out at a righ angle but from the top facing down so there is zero access from above with the radio installed.All in all it seems like a decent android radio but it’s a good bit more money than a lot of the others and I’m not sure yet if it’s a good overall value. I will definitely update this review if I realize it’s better or worse than my initial impressions

Android Jeep Radio
This is a nice radio, but just not working at its fullness. No AM radio stations..only a few FM stations work very static at times..I reached out to the company and no response until I went through Amazon. .they replied telling me that I needed a USB drive or some port to get upgrades. .I have spent so much money on stereo (installation) these past 2months ..this is the 3rd one that suppose to be compatible with my 2010 Jeep Liberty. I should have listened to the community with their comments...smh Right now I just don't have anymore funds to have this one removed and returned within 30days..smh ....update 7/31/2023 I'm getting a couple of AM stations and a few more FM stations.. I guess it depends on your location. I like the Navigation system.

It’s not the greatest
Had the radio installed for about a year now. Install was super easy in a 2013 JK. It is very bright at night and I ended up dimming the screen to zero. Sometimes the wireless CarPlay won’t work and sometimes the wired CarPlay won’t work. It reboots itself once a week. It’ll do a black screen sometimes or it’ll just freeze. If you’re looking for a radio short term that is nice, this is it. Anything longer than a year look elsewhere.

Not user friendly
Got it installed but unable to figure out how to send a text using voice commands. This thing is extremely difficult to figure out. May send back and keep looking for one that's more user friendly.
