It runs okay with the built in app (ZLink), and slightly better with HeadUnitReloaded (from the Play Store) though it take a bit of setting up. It's not as responsive as a standard Android Auto setup though (like with Sync 3). I'd say there's maybe 0.25s lag after tapping something. The best setup for AA is using HeadUnitReloaded and another app to hide the top/bottom bars, that way you can have it use the entire screen.
Android Auto has a much more usable interface whilst driving, and you also don't need to mess around with hotspots to get internet. It's also nice to be able to jump in any car and get the same UI up instantly.
But you're not using your phone? You plug your phone into the head unit, then use the 10" touch screen to control it. It sounds like maybe you've never actually used AA/CarPlay... It's not just your phone screen mirrored, it has special versions of apps that are optimised for use whilst driving (i.e. better layouts, bigger icons, etc.).
So i can install Amazon music and use voice to play songs? And the head unit looks this cool.
If you had the 8 inch screen originally you have to move your climate controls over and you get to keep your heated seats. Driving modes work as well. I just turned on the driving modes on my base model thru ForSCAN and works as it should.
Sorry, I am slow, when you say move the climate controls over. Is that just simply plugging the OEM wiring harness for climate into the new screen? Or do I have to remove the physical controls and remount them somehow?
you actually have move the motherboard from your stock unit to the PX6. They have a video on their site showing how to do it.
3 yr Clyde warranty on it also.
