BOSS Audio Systems Elite BE7ACP Car Stereo - 7" Display, Apple CarPlay & Android Auto Head Unit, Double DIN Touch Screen Car Stereo, Bluetooth, AM/FM Radio Receiver, USB, SD, No CD/DVD Player

Works perfectly!

Very responsive and sounds great, great features and videos look great and sound awesome. I don’t have the rear view camera hooked up but I may purchase a camera down the road. The only con for me is talking while in Apple play. I hear the same from everyone about this and it is that you won’t have a problem but the caller will hear there echo which will be annoying for them but if you call or get a call make sure you do it in Bluetooth without being hooked in to Apple play and they will not have an echo. I don’t understand and I wish there was settings so you could fix this because sometimes you may want to talk to someone while you are using the gps in Apple play but I couldn’t find that setting to fix it so I will live with it. More expensive head units have settings for the mic but this one does not and I heard it could be fixed if you could update the Apple play but you can’t so before you purchase you may want to think about if this is important to you but besides that this is a very nice budget car stereo and it is still worth the money

The first refurbished unit was missing the mic mount and the head unit lasted 30 minutes before it powered off and failed to turn back on. I verified the connections and fuses and everything was fine. I returned it back to Amazon and got a second refurbished unit. This time all parts are in the box and so far the unit has been working great. Car play auto works great. It does not support wireless car play. The UI is pretty basic. Nothing fancy or anything. Biggest gripe I have the unit is it's not really bright even if it's set to max. You can still see what's on the screen but for me it's not bright enough compared to my last unit. The second one is the volume control. I prefer a knob but that's like a extra $100 feature. The volume rocker is tiny and is on the very edge of my unit. The mounting bracket for my unit sticks out a wee bit where I can only press the rockers sort of at a angle. All and all, for less than $150(refurb) it's a good unit over stock.

Nice product

Bought this on March 4th 2022 since it seemed to pack a good deal of features and wattage for my speakers and sub. I replaced my factory JBL head unit that came with my 2006 Corolla commuter car. It was a nice upgraded factory system but it was outdated and I needed hands free, maps, and features you get in new head units. Was happy with it at 1st but then it had a problem with the Apple CarPlay USB connection. Wasted a bunch of time troubleshooting with BOSS to tell me my head unit was defective which I clearly knew. Luckily it was in warranty. I opted for the advanced replacement so I could get my problem fixed asap. Got the replacement unit, installed it and tested. Everything worked well until last month. Constant CarPlay disconnects. Tried different USB A to USB C cables and still same result. I know it’s not my phone (iPhone 15 Pro Max w/iOS 18.x) because I have a Kenwood head unit in my 2007 Z51 Corvette and it works flawlessly with the same cable and phone. It’s going on 6 years old now BTW. Now my BOSS is out of warranty and I have a head unit that doesn’t work for the reason I bought it for. I should have just bought another Kenwood since now I’m out more money for trying to cheap out for my commuter car. I haven’t had other issues with volume and screen related stuff others have described but I can attest to the Mic echo when connected via CarPlay. Many people complained about the echo when having conversations. Do yourself a favor…Pay more and cry once. I won’t be purchasing BOSS products ever again.

This product is worth every penny. The only problem i had, which im sure is rarely the case, is that I had to take out the screen to peel off the front plastic warning label. This is because the tab to peel it off the warnings was underneath the shell, but that was easy, all it took was a PH0 screwdriver. NOTE: If this happens to you, UNSCREW THE SIDES to take off the front plate, then carefully unscrew the top and push the screen gently from the top. If you unscrew from the top first, the screen might fall back and break [Edit to post] i have seen a few reviews saying that it does not have android auto... some android devices do not have the ability to use android auto. Also android auto only works over a cable, just like the apple car play. Some phones that I know that work are the Samsung Note 9 (and newer), the Samsung A12, and the Samsung Galaxy 9 (and newer)... make sure you look up if your device is compatible and if so, download the android auto app

I have had this for several months now so I feel like I can give a good review. I have not been able to use the Apple CarPlay function yet because the guys who installed that did not hook up my cable to the USB port (its in the back of the body of this system so it’s super hard to reach). Apple CarPlay only works when the phone is plugged in to the system - does not work via Bluetooth - so I can’t review that part! The touch works great and in all other ways it works fine. However, the Bluetooth is really spotty. My phone will randomly be disconnected, sometimes won’t connect unless I turn my car off then back on which reboots the system, and will at times get patchy even when the phone is connected. So that’s really frustrating considering it’s supposed to be a good system with a working Bluetooth function. I’ve been overall unimpressed with this system but that is solely because of the Bluetooth issues. I couldn’t give it a low rating just because of that because all other things I’ve been able to try are fine. We still need to hook up the back up camera and the Apple CarPlay. The microphone for hands free talking is not great. Sound quality for the person on the other end is poor, and if you try to voice text it misunderstands every word which Is hilarious but also annoying 😂 It’s not a BAD system by any means, it just disappointed me with the Bluetooth function being so poor. I’m still holding out for the CarPlay! That was the whole reason I got it so I’m ready to use it.

For the price this is a decent stereo. I had to buy an interface for my factory installed JBL amp but this thing sounds and works great. To use CarPlay you have to use a usb cable but I don’t mind. I have bluetooth CarPlay in another vehicle and it screws up constantly and I have to use a cable. Wired it is very stable. Love having Waze up while driving. Also it is installed in a convertible, and with the top down on the interstate I can talk on the phone with no problem. I was very impressed.

Voici le premier commentaire, lire la suite pour la solution. Fonctionne pas tout les 12 v branché mais quand je met le connector dans la radio mon 12 v descant a 3 v, problème interne Finalement le problème était que j’avais un mauvaise mise la masse, donc je me suis fait un nouveaux fil et la radio a fonctionné . Je vous conseille de vous ajouter un bouton pour alimenter le fil orange qui met le radio en mode nuit lorsque que vous allume vos phare avant et l’écran devient sombre, avec le bouton vous contrôler la luminosité jour/nuit . Fonctionne à merveille,aucun problème, téléphone fonctionne très bien , avec mon iPhone aucun problème Vidéo à venir

Works good with the stock BOSS system.

I decided to upgrade from the old stock radio and this one does fulfill the hands free phone requirement I was after however the Android Auto messaging system doesn't seem to work at all, even though I have version 14 and uninstalled/reinstalled the app. Unfortunately, it's not coming back out.

Le produit est défectueux. Je dois le retourner à ma plus grande peine.

Unit was faulty, wired correctly but screen would just go black and blast a terrible beep sound. Returned for a refund. Quality assurance for products needs to be increased
