Very happy that you are doing the single din reviews now!! I want to upgrade my stereo without molesting the centre console and this unit looks to be a front runner! I just need the check the dimensions of the screen to ensure it does not cut off any of the buttons or slide out cup holder
***Update***
I have purchased this and can say it works just as shown in the video. I bought a universal iso adapter and FM connection adapter from Halfords to fit the stereo and removed the illumination (orange) wire from the iso harness.... Works perfect!!! Very happy
Definitely saving this video in case I buy an older single DIN car. I've been looking at a few SN95 Mustangs.
Great video. I’ve just ordered one and looking forward to fitting it. Was the only single din unit that appealed to me.
Let me know how you get on
I have it all fitted and wired up but for the life of me I can’t get Apple car play. Do I need to download another app or anything? Any help would be much appreciated
great vid , i have the joying 8.8" , and the sound is great with a pioneer gm-d1004 , only problem in a bmw z4 with the roof down is the screen goes all funny in direct sun light , have installed a antiglare screen protected to try and help.
Never wanted a radio so badly, after this review
It is a decent radio
Thank you very much for all your excellent videos. I’ve just installed an Xtron head in my car, and wasted a weeks evenings trying to get the dab working. Tried everything suggested on all the tech sites, including screening the dab usb stick. All to no avail. Head came with Dab+ installed, found 60 or so station,and was showing a full signal, but no music playing, just an occasional garbled screech. This evening decided to try different apps, and on trying DabZ success. Why does Xtrons ship with an app that plainly doesn’t work with it’s system.
Very helpful thank you. Looks like a perfect size for my old LandRover Discovery 2.
Any more info on good compatible dash cameras, reversing cameras, adding DAB and anything additional needed to intergrate steering controls?
😊
Hello. Thanks for your very thorough review. Excellent evaluation. I have had this unit in my '89 BMW e30 now for over a year and while very pleased with it, my only complaint is the sound quality of phone calls. It is especially poor for the person receiving calls from my end. I have tried several mics and there doesn't seem to be a fix. Have you experienced the same issue? Can you recommend a good mic that will improve the phone call quality? Thank you.
optical and coax on such a cheap unit is really impressive
Thanks for briefly addressing the aftermarket amplifier connections.
I still think Joying and other brands should invest more into the Preamp RCAs. The SPDIF and Optical connections are nice but there aren't many aftermarket amplifiers that support those connections. I would've paid $100 more for decent 4V RCAs.
Yeah this is definately an area of evolution that needs to be invested in
nice
Great videos . Particularly interested in the atoto for my motorhome. Do you offer a fitting service as I’m not confident of doing this ? Thanks graham
Hi Stu,
Thanks for your great work on Head Units, have watched lots of your videos,
hope you can help with some info.
Do you know if any Android units have
Dual Bluetooth support for connecting 2 phones simultaneously?
Enables calls on both phones with auto switching.
I want a top quality unit & like the Teyes, Joying, ATOTO, etc.
I have a 2010 VW Passat wagon that suits the 9” screen.
I’m in Australia, I see Teyes has an Australian website, not sure if they’re really in Oz or China??
Hope you can help.
Cheers.
A device like this, but with wireless/detachable screen would be awesome. Or at least a nice cable instead of the ribbon one, so the processing unit could be installed anywhere hidden in the car
You are referring to a 0 din install. You can get an extended ribbon to locate this unit elsewhere, away from the screen. Joying sell 1m cables.
Idoing also sell 0 din headunits
Ever heard of Junsun?, They seem to be new to the market with there Universal Car Radio, a review about their unit would be golden!
Hi - sorry not directly related to this post but hoping you might be able to help with a minor inconvenience- Atoto S8 Premium and Saab 2010 93 - all works great but doesn’t automatically tether when I get in the car - I have to press the red link button on the screen - I’m sure it should just a bit confused about what my phone should be paired to lol - there is Bluetooth 1 Bluetooth 2 and Atoto - first world problem but it would be great if it just connected automatically lol thanks in advance - keep up the great content 👌
Mmm looks interesting and I may buy one to fit in my Porsche 968. Has an ISO loom connection from when a Becker Mexico head unit was professionally installed years ago. Now have a Continental CDD7418UB-OR CD / MP3-Autoradio Bluetooth DAB+ Radio but I haven’t really liked it although it looks fairly OEM. It feels cheap and the interfaces are fairly clunky. Maybe this is the single DIN head unit to replace it? I’ll update if I do go for it.
I have that android stereo in my jeep xj from 95 and i got it to fit perfectly where the 1 din cd player was
Hi , did you change the connectors on the back ? Thnx
@@user-bp7sx4jp3e Mine had iso connector installed from previous owner so it was almost plug and play i installed dab+ tpms remote and some usb connectors to the glove box, when it comes to Joying they are very helpfull when it comes to installing it in cars so if you tell them which car you have it could bee that they have a adaptor that fitts perfect
@@user-bp7sx4jp3e no the last owner had installed a aftermarked cd player with iso connector so it was plug and play
Great video, 2 questions 1) Can you test their "Newest UI 7-Inch Universal Double Din Head Unit" which have on their site? 2) Also, can you delete this grey developer circle which appears on the left side of the unit? Thanks!
@saabunleashed : Great video!! Do you suggest good unit for Lexus nx 2016 ?
Just what I was after but no longer available on Amazon UK unable to find it anywhere ☹️
@SaabUnleashed Looking at many of your review vids for ideas. That in-home Juke Box is pretty much what I am planning to use a Android Head Unit for. The features on the wish list are pretty much stand alone. No phone required. Just Wi-Fi for streaming music audio mostly. Also looking for an app that will record what is streaming to say a thumb drive for remote listening while on the road without reception access. Is that realistic to ask of a receiver head? Can you advise on this application?
It's been installed for about a year and was working. Now I only have sound from the radio function. No sound from Bluetooth. Any suggestions?
What model # would you put in a 2001 Plymouth Prowler? I like the joyin brand with wireless Apple car play & Android audio. I’m also wanting to replace all my factory speakers as well. I’d appreciate your recommendations. Thanks
Which android unit would you recommend for a mazda 3 2014 model, the one without a screen.
You have me convinced on your top 3-5 Android floating head units. Great to know we can get awesome stereos for a fraction of the price than the big names. I'm thinking 10-13" for my 2008 Tundra. I think something important to me (at this time) is to be able to tilt the screen to the left for better straight on view. I see Dasaita has the 30 degree span but not too sure that's the brand I want to go with since it didn't make your top 3. Given this feature that I think is important to my CURRENT thought process, What is your recommendation? Thank you!
Hi Stu. Great video. Would this fit into an older Saab 900 Turbo do you think? I’m unsure what the connections are from older Saabs to newer head units as I’m a 900 newbie. Thanks
If your 900 Turbo has the radio mounted at the top of the dash, yes it should be fine
I have an OG 93, radio is slightly less than standard double din. Thoughts on fitment?
Hi, I was just wondering, if using Android auto with the USB cable with how much does the radio charge the phone? Or is it better to use wireless and use a fast charger?
Hi which mirror link app do you recommend?
What do you recommend for Android to replace my orginal stereo in Saab 9-5 Aero 2006 ? Kind regards from Sweden 🇸🇪 like your channel
Im getting to much bass from my head unit.. equalizer is tuned all the way down for bass frequencies.. Any suggestions?
It'll be interesting to wait and see if this much better cpu ends up in the Joying form factor units. The snapdragons don't really cut it against the competition anymore.
Many Joyings have this UIS7862a SOC
Hi can you recommend a android radio for a fiat 500 2016 , I’d love a joy4 without changing the air vents etc
Is there anything you'd recommend for an '02 OG 9-3 🤞
Do you know if this head unit has an extended ribbon cable available? I want to mount the actual single DIN unit under my dash hidden away and mount the screen up on the dash. This one in particular appeals to me since it is single DIN, has a volume knob, and can provide Torque viewing directly on the device.
I live in England and have a 2011 ford focus titanium 1.6 ecoboost its got a 20012 style radio in it with a 4" screen can you recommend a hi spec android unit Thanks.
Hi. Great video. Do you plan to test any of Sinosmart head units?
Never heard of them! I'll see if I can get one to test
How many Bluetooth devices can this be connected to simultaneously?
i have a hizpo that has the same chip 7862a and had for little over year. i recently tried to update firmware and lost the car settings app which is needed to get to the area to update mcu and firmware. hizpo has always been great at support and im currently working with them. but still having trouble with getting it to auto install. i noticed this has same chip and was wondering if you found the firmware for this model. and willing to take a chance at this point to see if it works. do you know of the site for firmware for the joyforwa?
I have one on a 19 harley and something happens I lock the rear speakers out can't get them to play everything else work
WEll, mine arrived today but I can not get any audio out of it. The loom connects into the Chrysler Crossfire having taken the Apline out. Ive checked the cables and all the audio and power cables match. The unit turns on, its linked via bluetooth and wifi so my Google account and android auto all work but still, no damn sound !!
Sounds to me like you have a factory car amp and you need to find the wire that triggers it on. That would cause silence
This doesn't appear to be available anymore, can you recommend anything similar single DIN please? Preferably EU supply.
Hello im thinking of buying this unit JY-MSQ122N4G but cannot find any details on weather i can change the colors on the physical buttons. I don't know if you're familiar with this model
Dual Bluetooth???
Do any Android units have dual Bluetooth for connecting 2 phones simultaneously to receive calls on either phone??
Can you somehow get AUX in for audio to work?
How about a review of or at least information on audio amps that support SPDIF/Digital audio inputs.. Im having difficulty finding any info on them
This is a good idea, I'll get on that
Is there an android head unit that I can hook a subwoofer to???I have a Nissan rogue.
How many bolts are the pre outs? Are they 4volt or above?
What is the r m s for each speaker
Hello Saab unleashed! Do you really read your comments? I need your help with a car play which you made a video about. I can’t find any support somewhere else.
Hi Saab. I quite like this one. Thank you. How much can you extend IDE cable? I have a classic car but my 1d unit for radio is very low. So if i would have a rear camera i would need to look down all the time. But if i can extend this cable i can customise mounts and put the screen up on the dashboard and it would resolve my problems since i can not finde two part car radios anywhere.
I'm pretty sure they sell a 1metre ribbon so you can install it like you want as a 0din unit.
Do you recommend any alternative to Joying/Joyforwa that has a same or similar system of deattached front screen?@@SaabUnleashed
Genuine question - Do these units actually sound any good versus something like a Pioneer, and are they reliable? Tempted to buy something else you've reviewed but struggling to take the plunge when I can buy from a brand I trust with years of heritage behind them. Thanks
The big brands generally win with power output if you opt for one of their high end models. These are on par with the budget big brands, again talking about power output.
The overall sound quality is excellent if you go for a branded Android unit and you won't be disappointed
I have the Joying Universal 7” UIS7862 8 Core as well and am trying to determine just how I can connect the Joying External CD Player (USB), DVR (USB), TPMS (USB), iPhone 12 Pro (lightning to USB). Joying, of course, stated all were able to be connected however there are only 2 USB (OTG & #2). Since on Joying Forum, they suggest connecting the iPhone to the OTG for CarPlay, yet on the other hand they have complaints of no net increase in Charge coming from the OTG Port, I am intending on adding a Coolgear (12V Powered USB HUB) to power my iPhone and other accessories. The question is should I connect this Hub to the OTG or #2? I am also not sure if I can simultaneously use say the iPhone CarPlay and still record DVR and be notified by TPMS if a tire is running out of air (which has happened at 90mph!) of all devices are connected to the HUB as compared to being directly connected?
A powered hub is exactly what I would do in this situation, you should be fine with this
Which USB Port on the back should I connect the Hub to (OTG or #2)?@@SaabUnleashed
Hello! I've looked on Amazon but I can't see any Joyforwa, only the Joying radio's
They are the same company
Cool😎
Does it have mirror link?
very professional review as always! this is what i looked for. which DAB adapter and antenna you recommend for this device? it‘s for a volkswagen T3 1981 with high roof (GFK).
This is a nice cheap one which is the same as the branded ones and comes with a window antenna amzn.to/3BSo540
Hi, the ribbon cable between screen and the main part. Is the cable able to be unplugged from the body? Wondering if the cable is replaceable, then I could remote mount the base and just attach the screen to the dash as I don’t have a single din spot.. cheers
Yes it can be removed from the main body. You can actually order a longer cable. The type of installation that you are refering to is called "Zero din" (as opposed to single and double din) which represents the main unit being hidden away from the actual usable touch screen. This type of installation can be done with Joying or Idoing head units
@@SaabUnleashed awesome. Thanks so, so much for reply. I appreciate it greatly. And love your channel. Thanks again.
What's up with the units home button overlapping the Spotify home button?? I have a Q96 from maxpeedingrods that does the same.
That will be a result of a low resolution screen
Lovely device, but expensive and for the UK market, having the volume controller and microphones pointing on the wrong side of the front screen is a swing and a miss.
That's every unit I'm afraid. I have never seen one designed for a right hand drive car. But in the case of such a small screen, it doesn't really matter. This comes with an external Mic anyway
Can someone tell me how screens are measured. Is it the same as television screens where the diagonal measure from top corners to opposite lower corners is the actual size?
Yes correct
I got a SAAB 95 Aero. 56reg. 80k genuine miles. Its an estate. What's it worth?,?
Hi, i need help. Do you have any new recommendations on android units for ng 9-5, or actually I have a 9-4x. Have you tested any new recently?
Do you have any mail or something? I would really like to know what the best option is for the 9-5 right now.
good evening...I have a question and I can't seem to find info on it. Can someone expand the storage capacity on an android head unit by plugging in a thumb drive via the USB plug on the back of the unit? I want at least a 3GB RAM unit but I'd like to put music on the device as well as offline maps. I just can't seem to find info on this.
You can indeed expand storage with a thumb drive or a micro SD card. You mention RAM, and I just want to reiterate that RAM is not storage.
Do you think it would fit on a 2003-2006 Saab 9-3 (where the icm3 is) as its single din unit (with a proper bezel) ?
Yes, in a similar fashion to the Joying I installed in the 2005 9-3 in the other video. Just bear in mind you have a lot of fabrication work to do to fit anything aftermarket in that car
@@SaabUnleashed is there a way for the car , when it turns on , to go straight to AUX (or i guess just press the SRC button from steering wheel and just swap to aux each time) ? cause if thats possible , u could put a usb "sound card" to the usb port of the 1din unit and all audio of the car go through AUX ... would that work ?
@@alextg50 you can't start the car in aux, but you can run the head unit using the RCA outputs it already has so you don't need a sound card (RCA-3.5mm jack)
How can I get a screen for Saab
Do you know if anyone makes a unit that supports XM
Why is android auto sound quality so poor through i was upgrading but have taken 3 steps back very disappointing.
Can I ask does anyone know what uk SIM card works with the android head units. Thanks
All of the ones I have tried work. Three, EE, o2
Why is it also branded as Joyforwa?
I have no idea, but it is sold by Joyings official shop
Dont think im buying any joying product again. Fitted joying 10.1,
a) screen ribbon cable has connection issues since new.
Screen goes and comeback on its own.
B) "Waterproof" Rear view camera only lasted 2 weeks after fitting.
C) not often but head unit freezes.
I would have had their customer service team send me a new one. It's easier to deal with issues on this one because it's from Amazon
I got the joying 11.6 snap dragon and im having endless of issues with it and the customer service is pretty average aswell
I have the joying snapdragon unit as well. If you use android auto from your phone it works much better.
My atoto s8 died after 2 months but after replacement it's working perfectly fine for almost 5th month hh
@strawsy69 Yeah I agree. Oddly enough the connection is more stable wirelessly. Also I noticed the sound quality is better wirelessly when streaming Spotify or Apple Music....
I think it's because most newer phones have a better DAC (Digital-to-Analog Converter) than the radio has when streaming through a USB cable
I got the snap Dragon 11.6... I should have got the one with the other cpu in it I heard those are better.. I'm really not a fan of this snapdragon 625.. I only really got it because of the launcher.. which was a mistake 🙄
@Ryan Earl yeh i use the vivid launcher tbh which is great but i cant get the sim card to work so i have to constantly hot spot it
From what I understand you are whittlesey based, iam in turves. Any chance you can fit a teyes in my Hilux for a fee. Watched your videos and just went for it.
I actually did a Hilux not long ago. Sure. You'd need to leave the truck with me for a weekend
@@SaabUnleashed thank you very much. When it arrives will be in touch.
Regards Russ
I bought a Joying on your recommendation and it keeps overheating, and they obviously won't refund me 🤬
I've found their customer service decent when I've needed it for a dodgy screen, they sent a replacement, and this was before UA-cam
did you delete my comment?
I don't delete comments ever. What was it?
@@SaabUnleashed I shared a link for the same unit but from the joying website and told about my expierence with Joying. I bought this exact unit from them a couple of months ago and it had been working perfectly. Then recently the touch functionality on the screen stopped working. Their customer support offered a new touch panel which I would then need to replace by myself but they couldn't offer any instructions on how to do so. I rejected this offer and we then agreed on them sending an entirely new screen, but I would have to pay 100€ first. Once received, I would have to return the defect screen and then get 70€ paid back. I am currently waiting for the new screen. Up until this point, I don't think that their customer support has been all that great, but hopefully it will turn out okay. I just think people should be aware of this before buying.
How does the car's settings work when we replace the head unit?
6:10 what? Is it not made to go in a car? Why even review this if it "looks stupid"
There are two main sizes of radio. Single din, and double din, which is twice the physical size. As this unit is a single din, and my car requires a double din, it would left a big hole on my dashboard, hence why I showed it in the Jukebox. I hope that helps you understand what I meant.
6:12 “it’s going to look stupid if I install it in a car”
Sir, that’s the whole point of the unit. It’s a single din receiver. You’re not reviewing a gold plated radio for a McLaren F1, you’re reviewing cheap Chinese tech from Amazon. Talk about not knowing your audience.
Hi, do you have some email contact trought what I could contact with you?

Hi! May i contact you privately?

what do you recommend for a 2008 toyota tundra? on the cheap side.
