I'm re-doing my stereo again and basically am going to delete my Nav I think and single din all together. 2 will feed my super light component speakers, and 4 will bridge into two to drive my bass transducers mounted into my seats. It will directly feed my JL audio 6 channel amp that weighs in at 5 pounds. I am going to wait for the O-dock and do a nice install in the NSX come spring. It is a flaw that should be addressed, you swipe your finger on the tuner dial on the phone display 4 times and it goes from 90.3 to 90.7. Also when using the terrestrial tuner you have 16 presets so the fact that it tunes slow is not a big deal. the unit still works, just tuned into the last station you left it on. It is nice if I don't happen to have my phone. It's still a nice feature to have that secondary AM/FM terrestrial tuner, but I can live without it. that overrides everything, and so your nav becomes silent. If you use the radio app, you use the unit's internal tuner. I get more data, cover art, and the NAV can override the music. I don't use it much because I use iHeart Radio on my phone instead. The radio app for it is SLOW as hell if you want to use it for tuning in stations. Having a light around the 32 pin connector would have been nice, but its not there. I just use the speakerphone in the phone itself instead and leave the bluetooth off.Īt nights, if it is pitch black, you need to turn on the interior light to insert your phone into the unit. I hooked up the attached microphone and it works OK, I can make calls, but its not all that clear. Not as good as just using the built-in speaker phone. The flaws are: The bluetooth on the unit is fairly poor in sound quality. No worries on running multiple apps at the same time with my 4S, I can run pandora, my nav, and e-mail/text at the same time. Sure enough as I am getting off the exit I see a jam in the far distance. Every once in a while I get the "re-routing due to new traffic information". Turn by turn with street names read, it always instantluy knows where it is, and if sat signal is lost it switches to locating itself using cell tower triangulation. I did the Navigon app for $50 and another $20 to get instant traffic info and it works better than my super expensive stand alone navigation system. When I park I watch youtube and HULU videos. The ability to angle it toward me is terrific. The ability to rotate the unit landscape or straight is perfect. Yes, I once in a while hit SIRI on my iPhone4S and tell her to Text people. It constantly charges my phone, and it places it at EXACTLY the right height and makes it easy to see and a breeze to type into. $300, this thing eliminated all the wires in my DD car. I'd buy another as IS, with its problems again. If the bugs are fixed, it is a near flawless solution. you'd have to pry it out of my cold dead hands. There are posts about tips, user experiences, setup questions, etc.Been using the Oxygen O'car in my Honda Element for months now. if your device supports it (Android), give it a shot, it's a pretty slick setup." while keeping navigation going or just watching traffic with Waze. Post #185 reads, "I've been using my WLQ lately in split screen mode and I really like it - you can keep an eye on all the data/music etc. Everything worked smooth with my iPhone and the molded plastic components are quality." As you can see I'm not an active poster, but I had to give Keith and Wayne a shout-out, this thing works amazing! Anyone looking for a phone integration with the BMW cradle, I can't recommend it enough. One post (#163) reads: "Just returned from holidays and was finally able to get this setup on my '17 GSA, and WOW. The developers received a lot of input from this forum, and it sounds like they were pretty responsive - at least here. I do not have one, but from the sounds of it, they work well although there were some limits with install instructions and different configurations of phone/bike/software. The Kickstarter-funded units have been in use since around Xmas.
