I am going to replace the factory head unit in my 120 series 2006 Prado and would love some advice.
I have had an Erisin double din unit that is around eight years old now and has performed really well apart from the lack of memory pushing the GPS to the edge although for the most part it coped OK.
I am interested in a PX5 based unit and would prefer knob controls, but these seem thin on the ground in the 200mmx 100mm to suit the Toyota.
I am interested in the Dasaita HA2135-V840-8 due to the comments about the quality of the chips for bluetooth and radio etc, but not convinced with the lack of DVD, and DAB+ support.
The Xtrons PB78HGTP looks really good, but lists the display as 800x480 compared to the Dasaita's 1024x600.
I can't find any definitive info about Xtrons chips, but like the features of the unit more that the Dasaita's.
The Xtrons PA77HGTP has my preferred control layout, but would the PX3 be disappointing compared to the PX5 units.
I am not yet allowed to post links but they can be googled easily
Any advice would be appreciated.
Thanks

Hey everyone, total newbie so bear with me. I've come across 3 HU's on Ali and I'm wondering are there really differences between the units, specs, good or bad, and the different sellers, again, good or bad? Thanks in advance. Here are the 3 similar units:
I can't post links So Sorry. Search these units on Aliexpress:

Bump. No one has any experience or knowledge they are willing to share to help a Newbie out?
I'm new to Android head units. Neither of the ones I've tried are what you're after but I'll share my experience.
Only tried two brands; a Pumpkin which was okay but took 30-40s to boot each time and for me I only have single din, the motorized display kept hitting the dash and was at a funny angle. Sound quality was nothing to write home about.
The second brand is a Joying one. The sound quality is absolutely atrocious for me and then it has these buttons on the side which are touch buttons. No matter how much you configure them in the settings, I can never seem to touch the right area which is highly annoying.
In my previous car I had a double din Pioneer which sounded unbelievably good with the stock speakers, unfortunately my latest car only has single din. If you really want an Android head unit, be prepared to not have the best sound quality.
Again I've only tested two but I'm sure others on here will have found what works well.
I found a Wondefoo PX5 (mtcd) unit for my Volkswagen that has the OEM look (important to me) so I don't get robbed, 720p screen, DVD, and most importantly the DSP, $270. Dasaita has the DSP with Px6 but costs about $430and is definitely aftermarket looking, and 1000x600 screen, and no disk drive.
Is it worth sacraficing features and the extra money and to get the Dasaita PX6 performance and supposed quality? Everything I'm reading points to Dasaita as the go to
You don't say which car you have but I would suggest the K3 high from Ownice just because it's a MTC PX5 with an IPS screen and there's lots of support and customization for it here. There's a pro version and it appears to be PX6 with 64GB but I wouldn't bother with it. I have the PX5 K3 pro and I don't regret buying it but I don't think it was worth the extra money. If there's a feature you would like from the pro version you can ask for it when you place your order. And ask to ship with the HU not mounted to the faceplate that will save you headaches their packaging is not the best.
I think the Dasaita has a CSN MCU. I haven't been following development on it so I'm not sure what customization is available.
It seems like all the head units with PX6 or PX CPU only are available with 600p displays? At least from the known manufacturers.
The only Android head unit I have found with 1280 x 720 display is the Joying with Intel CPU. But it has gotten bad reviews and is lacking community support. So I would prefer a PX6 head unit. Do they exist, and do you have any recommendation? Thanks!
My Erisin 8715V got 1280x720 with PX5..

Px5 or px6 is a processor not a make or model of Chinese Android head unit.
There are multiple manufacturers of head units with these processors, and are not created equally. which ones have been considered.
@marchnz
do you have suggestion which brand is ok and which brand should be kept away from ?
in regards to de px6 and 720 resolution ?

My post is almost 1,5 years old, now 720p screens are common.
maybe so, but doesn't make the choice easier
so any suggestion is welcome
Hi guys
Sorry if this is covered already but I can't seem to find a definitive answer. I'm looking for a new android head unit for my VW and have about £170 to spend.
I've seen this on AliExpress and spec looks decent for price. (PX5)

Do you think this is the best option for my budget or should I be looking elsewhere?
Hello ))
I'd like to purchase a head unit for my 2009 subbie, and i found some head units on aliexpress. Lookin in the 300$ range, there are some decent options but nothing seems perfect.
Here is what i have found so far:
- Intel T8 platform idoing with tda7850 and nxp6686. built in DSP. low screen rez tho (1024-600P) and android 9.0 which i guess is okay - https://www.aliexpress.com/item/32950726060.html
- Same intel T8 platform with tda7851L and nxp6686. built in DSP. high screen rez of 1280-720P android 10. Seller seems a bit unsupportive by people's comments tho.. Responds fast, but ignores if you need to solve an issue. https://www.aliexpress.com/item/4000923381907.html
- Also T8 platform with tda7851 and nxp6686. built in DSP (2 channel video, 4 channel audio), 1280-720P android 10. Claims that his amplifier tda7851 provides 4x 60W (How is this possible?) - https://www.aliexpress.com/item/4000994985279.html
I know that PX6 is slightly better than intel's proccessor. Thing is the that i doesn't support dual band bluetooth and i've heard that over time Intel's overheats less. But again those are thing i've "heard".
Would like to see some more suggestions on what to buy.
