Re: joying car stereo questions
We have a Joying in one Crossfire, and a Pumpkin Audio in another. Both have their plusses and minuses. IIRC, the Joying has a hands-free that actually works, and the Pumpkin does not. However, like a lot of Chinese radios, there are always flaws, and most of those are in the user interfaces. I would personally keep looking, as that one you are looking at is almost twice as expensive as many other Android radios out there. I just went out and looked, and wow, have prices shot up! Also, I would look more for how much RAM (go for at least 8GB), as that will really determine how quickly the inputs respond to you, more than how new an Android version it is. Often the older versions of Android have the client software more sorted out. There is a really short, stubby bluetooth Elm27 style adapter. It was no more than US$30. I have it plugged in at all times, and run Torque on my radio whenever I need a quick look at what's going on.
