Portable Car Stereo with Wireless Carplay 7Inch Carplay Screen

Had to purchase this unit as my original wired carplay went out in my car and I NEED my maps and music. Didn't want anything overly expensive and was skeptical about the price, but tbus works amazingly! There is a little latency in the maps, I'm guessing due to it being wireless as opposed to wired what i'm normally used to. But it's not that bad and honestly the wireless is convenient with me not having to plug anything in. It connects really fast to my phone and supports the original cars bluetooth which allowed me to still have high quality music. It does have the option for FM and aux if you don't have bluetooth. It feels light but pretty sturdy and I love the little sun vison on top. Overall gets the job done and didn't have to break the bank.

Like many of you on here I like to read through the reviews before even considering a product. This one seemed too good to be true (I got it with a discount for about $40). Let me be the one to tell you it is completely worth the buy. I had pretty high expectations for this CarPlay unit and thus far it has exceeded every one of them. I recently went on a vacation and had to rent a car. This car was equipped with CarPlay. I decided to give it a try and LOVED all of the features. When I returned home I immediately started searching for a portable unit I could put in my older daily driver that has no bells or whistles (except a cassette deck but you can only listen to the same Johnny Cash tape so many times). The screen is very similar to any current vehicle screen while not being too big. Installing the unit to my windshield took a total of 10 seconds and seriously it was that easy. The Bluetooth setup took a minute but I believe it was human error. Once I excited out and tried again it immediately connected to my phone (iPhone). Here are my define pros: My speakers in my truck cut in and out. This little unit has a built in speaker that is surprisingly good quality. I wouldn’t recommend using it solely for that but if you have bad speakers this is a cheap fix. The FM transmitter is good. I live in a very rural area but the unit still cut over a station I had tuned to and you could hear everything with decent quality. It is CarPlay. I thought it might be a cheap knock off and not work like CarPlay does but this thing does it all. There is absolutely no issues with responsiveness. When you scroll it scrolls. When you stop, it stops. Where you click works every time. I honestly have not seen any negatives to this. It is cheap, good quality, does what it should and is just cool. Stop questioning yourself like I did and buy this bad boy!

So I didn’t really realize what apple CarPlay and Android auto actually were until a couple of months ago when we ended up needing a newer vehicle as one of our old cars finally developed transmission issues at 211,000 miles. The newer car had it which I’ve found I like very much. Fast forward a bit. Our second car is a Chevy Sonic from 2016. The original radio had failed at some point so we had an aftermarket unit installed. However it didn’t have touch screen, Apple CarPlay, android auto etc. I had been considering trying to install a different head unit that had all of those features but my wife didn’t want me tearing into the dash etc and truthfully on these newer vehicles with steering wheel control modules etc I was a bit intimidated, but still wanted the Apple CarPlay functionality. Fast forward to a week or so ago I came across a video showing a unit similar to this. Wasn’t totally sure, but found this unit for under 40 bucks. Let’s be realistic, the Sonic has a lot of miles now, but I got this device for about $35 dollars and change after a coupon code. Only time will tell as to the longevity, but I received the unit today. Fairly easy to set up. In my case I plugged it in, stuck it on the dash using the included adhesive, let it start up, and away it went. Since my stereo had an aux in, I ended up simply connecting the 1/8 jack to this screen and used a USB c to USB cable to plug into the radio directly to provide power as opposed to the cigarette lighter. So less cable, and the radio turns off when I shut off the car. I did a test call with it, the built in mic could be better but is functional. But for this price what do you expect? It seems to handle using Google maps and Amazon music almost as well as the stereo in my newer vehicle that has those functions built in. It’s not quite as responsive but certainly good enough to do the job. Bottom line is if you’re looking for a high end unit, this isn’t the setup you’re looking for. It doesn’t have the backup camera with it though it will accept one. But if you want to add Apple CarPlay functionality to an old vehicle, give this a shot. The price is definitely right if you don’t want to put a lot of money into your older car but want a Tesla style screen in it. Only time will tell how long this unit lasts me, but if I even get a year out of it, then it will have been worth what I paid for it. It handles maps and music and even seems ok with calls. So the main functions I got it for. It’s so nice especially in the evening if I’m having to drive somewhere where I may not know where I’m going to have the directions on a screen instead of feeling like I need to look at a phone.

I’m very happy with this portable CarPlay screen! The display is clear and responsive, and it connected quickly to my phone without any issues. It makes using maps, music, and calls so much easier while driving. The sound quality is good, and the wireless connection works smoothly. Installation was simple and it instantly made my car feel more modern. Definitely worth it for the price!”

I bought this in July 2025 for my 2013 Kia Optima, the set up was a bit difficult because i wasn't using an aux cord but eventually got it figured out. At first i was having trouble with it disconnecting randomly due to my samsung watch. Once i turned off my watch it would stay connected. Then it eventually stopped needing me to turn off my watch and stayed connected. Now, it is randomly disconnecting even with my watch off so i give up. I will be buying something different. It worked great when it stayed connected and sound quality was fine since it was my car's bluetooth. However, if you're a girly with long nails, don't get a screen with a shade like this. It's hard to tap anything at the top of the screen.

This unit works quite well and instantly updates my vehicle to feel more modern. Setup was simple, and I found it works best when I disconnect the vehicle from Wi-Fi and just use this device on its own. The only small quirk is that it stays powered on for about 20 minutes after shutting off the car since my vehicle maintains power to the outlet. I solved that by using a 12V splitter with a power button—easy fix. The speaker quality is decent for calls, and I mainly use it through my radio, but it would probably sound even better connected via Bluetooth. After a month of daily use, I really enjoy having Waze, my music, and radio apps all right on a nice large display. Definitely a solid purchase!

​This unit offers good performance considering its price point. While the touchscreen lags occasionally, the device was easy to set up and provides a greater degree of safety when driving my older vehicle. ​My particular unit developed an issue within a month of purchase. After I contacted the support team, they sent a replacement as quickly as possible.

My use case for this sub $50 portable car stereo is in my beater Durango. For under $50 it's great. If it was over $50 it would still be decent. More than $60 move up to the next level around $75. Pros: Apple CarPlay, Android Auto, FM receiver, Aux jack, Touchscreen is laggy but snappier than expected. Cons: The mounts, FM reception is not amazing either with local radio or using this to play Apple Music, and the mounts. Oh did I mention the mounts? They are junk, trash, just really, really bad. I will say they do stick. The suction cup worked well on my windshield and the dash mount is very secure. So what's the problem with them? They will NOT (yes I'm screaming that) stay secure! URRGGHHHH!! Hot weather? Works loose won't stay put unit flops around. Cold weather? Uh huh like a dead fish. At some point I'll go out and figure out how to keep it in place probably with a decent nut and bolt not the plastic threaded junk that's there. So if you're thinking of upgrading a daily driver honestly I'd spend a little more. If you're looking for a bargain to use in a beater or maps not music is more important then grab one. Just fix the mount first. It all really does boil down to you get what you pay for and with this you get a decent touchscreen with CarPlay or Android compatibility which was a big factor for me. It's basic but it works and it didn't break the bank.

Lo puse para mi pointer 2002 que recién cambié el audio y necesitaba algo que s pudiera desmontar para evitar robos, me sorprendió la calidad y facilidad definitivamente lo recomiendo si no quieres o no puedes instalar una pantalla y quieres toda la nueva tecnología

Buenísimo me ha durado un año aprox y sigue al 100 buenísima compra

La bocina de la pantalla no tiene mucho volumen, es fácil de instalar pero no hay nada de cámara de reversa . Solo está la pantalla.

Fácil de instalar, funciona muy bien, es práctico y con buena calidad.

Pues así como inalámbrica… pues no, hay que usar dos cables, el de la corriente al encendedor y el auxiliar al estéreo. Al final es conectar el celular por bluetoooth, con lo que, si te quedas sin pila en el celular, y el encendedor está ocupado por la pantalla… pues ya valió! Las imágenes se ven bien y el material también, buen costo beneficio… no trae cámara de ningún tipo y se desmonta rápido… la pusimos al parabrisas porque para el tablero parece que hay que poner la base con pegamento y el chiste es poder quitar y que no quede rastro… pero cada quien… el sonido es bueno, tal vez cambiar el cable auxiliar por uno de alta densidad lo mejoraría… contentos y esperamos funcione para los viajes largos
