I have a long road trip that is instigating looking at replacing the headunit again. I was looking at the eonon GA9480A but the reviews say it's slow to respond, doesn't catch all the touches etc. and I'm guessing it's because its only a PX30 w/ 2gb of ram.
I found a Bosion PX6 w/ 4gb of ram on aliexpress but worried that it won't fix the problem or that the brand may be sub-par since I can't find a lot of reviews online. Anyone have experience? will the better CPU and more ram address the responsiveness issues brought up on the Eonon GA9480A reviews?
Thanks for the help
Dont bother with the Boison Px6. I got one and its going straight back. too many issues to list but long story short is it uses an STM32 MCU which doesnt work well.

Any chance there is a "gold standard" head unit currently for PX6?
Just look for one with MTCE MCU. I just ordered an insudar for £240 but lots buy Xtrons or Joying but they are a bit more expensive for the same thing.
Most of these HU has resolution of 1024 x 600. I searched for better resolution ones and found none in price range of ~£200 so gave up and bought a cheap PX6 unit. Even with my £25 unit with 1GB RAM on old toyota car, never had issues with touches, responsiveness and overall general functionality. You already have PX30 with a good support here in XDA so don't know what kind of improvements you're after.

I know there are various threads open discussing various items, but I figured if anyone doesn't have an Oreo unit with 4GB of RAM, you might want to see how it looks.
This is Model number HA2162-V840-8 for a Jeep which has a 7 inch screen, 4GB of RAM, 32GB of storage, a Rockchip PX5 Octa-Core 64-Bit Coretex A53 processor, and runs Android 8.0 Oreo

I think the Xtrons is similar, but I dont have that one, I just have the Dasaita, and @hotaudio frequently posts here

Hello,
I am thinking to change my old mtcb rk3188 1gb unit to a newer one. I am between dasaita hotaudio (7in 1024*600) and xtrons (6.2 in 800*400).
Are you still happy with the dasaita unit? Do you run a stock ROM w/o root, or a custom ROM?
Thanks in advance

Hey Mike,
Are you still rocking the Dasaita?
I recently sold my car with my 2GB Joying Intel Sofia in it. It was an ok unit but a little sluggish at times and always seemed to have a Bluetooth disconnect/reconnect bug.
Looking for a replacement now and debating who to go with. Seems to be a toss up between Joying and Dasaita at the moment.
Looking for a 4gb/32gb universal 2din (with hardware buttons) I know from your previous posts that you have dabbled in a few of these units! What do you think is the best in your opinion?

Hello mates,
I want to buy 2din android head unit for Mazda 6 GH 2009. Via Eonon website I can find 2 models almost similar and I don't know wich one is more powerfull, so the two options are :
1) Eonon GA9198B - PX5 1.5GHz Cortex A53 Octa-core 4GB DDR3
2) Eonon GA9298B - Rockchip PX30 1.5GH Cortex A35 Quad-Core 2GB 2GB RAM
I know is a huge difference between 2 and 4 GB ram but I don't know anything regarding those two cpus ... Any Ideea ?
Also will be much apreciated if you sugest other head unit better then those two mentioned.
Hey! I definitely recommend the PX5 over the PX30 - the PX5 is faster, more established and has lots of support on XDA. Have a look in the MTCD forum if you want to know more about these units.
I have an Eonon GA2171S which is PX5 and it is great, and there are lots of mods available. I definitely recommend installing Hal9k 3.1 ROM for full functionality.

Any reason not to go with a PX30 , I'm looking at the GA3175 as the price is good and specs seem pretty good.

I take it you mean the GA2175? See my previous post - PX5 is faster and has much better support here at XDA for mods etc. I'm not aware of any ROMs for PX30, while PX5 has Hal9K 3.1 which really fixes all the shortcomings of these types of units.

Yes GA2175, i saw your post and i'm not interested in rom availabilty as yet so thats no issue. Was wondering if i would be disappointed with it over a 2170/2170B, 2175 is currently $214 versus 2170B $274. Fitting kit for my canbus Landrover was $185 which has killed the budget a bit.
Ok fair enough, the PX30 will be a little slower, but in all there won't be a lot of difference. Screen and components will mostly be identical. Out of interest why are you getting a canbus fitting kit?
Couldn't you find a unit which fits your vehicle?

Nothing off the shelf and i would need the fitting kit anyway for the wheel controls and canbus integration.

Oh ok, yeah the ones which are made to fit certain cars generally already have the canbus functionality so don't need a fitting kit. What model land rover is it? I can see some for a 2007-2012 Freelander 2 like this:

Hello all,
My old Android HU is died out, and I'm looking for replacement at this point. Car is Hyundai Tucson 2015, and I'm looking for best HU I can find in terms of stability, performance and manufacturer and community support. Only condition is that it must be sent from EU warehouse (I don't want to have any bussines with customs).
From post on this forum, it seems to me that PX6 and PX5 units are most powerful. PX5 is having more community support at this time, and PX6 is newer, faster and less prone to overheating. Intel devices SC9853I are probably also good choice, but it seems to me that Rockchip units have more support and are faster.
I know that it isn't all in chipset, manufacturer quality control and support is probably more important, but I noticed that people are hesitant to recommend some manufacturer. Vendors that are often mentioned in terms of quality and support are: Dasaita, Joying, Ownice, Seicane...
This is something that I dug out looking at webshops and AliExpress stores:
SC9853I:

Do you have any other recommendation (EU warehouse is a must)? What would you choose?
For me PX6 is probably best choice for future, although PX5 has better community support right now?
Decisions, decisions
I am going with cheap px6 and quite ok. With the low price for 127$ px6, 4gb ram, 32gb rom ... have the good speed and fast response. I used to have T8 with 2gb ram before and the response time is very bad.

Try to find at banggood.com if any promotion for you, as usal the price can be under 150$.
With me, it boot up fast enought ~20-25sec, take 2-3m to get GPS if clear sky.
Note: I am using cheap one with stm32 MCU, you may get another high end PX6 with MCTx, it can be better.

What do you mean by MCTx??
For those of you who are interested, I bought a unit from a local store, instead of dealing with shipping, customs etc...
It's made from FOXWAY brand, with a PX6 RK3399 with 4gb of ram. I attached the settings page.
It doesn't have all day quick wake up, I can set it up to 2 hours, but after that it has to boot up. Although it's fast, I prefer for it to set it all the time as in joying units.
Also, I can't find a way to disable the touch or button beep sound, which is driving me.
Any ideas will be welcome..
Hello everyone.
My 3 years old 7" Joying Sofia 2gb HU died, and I'm looking for a replacement.
Since the release of my unit, I noticed that the new models are based on PX5, PX6 and the latest AIRMONT Intel units.
The most important things for me:
- fast performance and stability, which means at least 2gb of memory, preferably 4gb.
- good ANDROID AUTO compatibility, either natively, or good support for the app "Android headunit reloaded" which I've been using all the time on my dead joying unit
-Fast wake up time after sleep, I really don't want to wait a minute for having a working unit once I turn on the car.
Any alternatives to Joying Headunits? I was disappointed with the quality control of their units and support.
Any advice will be highly appreciated!!
Hi,
I never give "buying advice" as I only know Joying and can't compare with others: there is no clear pro/con here. Some users prefer one brand, others another. 9 out of 10 only know "their own" brand and promote that one (something like: the more in one community, the more community support you might expect?). But you PMed me with the question about advice so I will give my 2 cents.
From what I have heard Dasaita (Hot Audio) seems qualitatively a bit better, but that's from hear-say. They are also slightly more expensive than the Joyings.
I now received the SC9853i unit from Joying for only 63 euros for testing purposes.
If I did not have that new Joying one, I might "try" a Dasaita.
Build quality: All Chinese models range from "moderate" to "bad" quality. There is a reason why they are 2x-3x cheaper. I do not think Joying is worse than the rest. I even think they are better than a lot of the unbranded models, who are indeed even cheaper. And again: From what I have heard is Dasaita better and therefore also more expensive.
W.r.t. support from Joying: They do support you. Sometimes it is very good, sometimes it is bad especially when they do not know it or do not have a solution. Then they "wriggle" without giving a firm statement.
But they do support you. When reading about all kind of other, especially the non-branded units, there is simply no support at all and they only speak Chinese.
Concluding: my choice would again be a Joying, or a Daisata.
But again: that is only theoretically as I have never done an in-depth study of multiple models.
Edit: Dasaita is MTC-D/E and therefore supported by the HAL9K and Malaysk custom ROMs, if that is what you want.

Thank you for the very informative reply! I'm sure other forum members will learn from it.
I'm actually a bit disappointed with Joying, the device has never left the car, and suddenly the screen stooped working intermittently. After reading a but about this issue, it appears that the intel Sofia units had some poor soldering of parts on the motherboard, and after contacting their support team, they recognized the problem and sent me a link to a video on YT showing that I can fix it by soldering a part on the motherboard. Unfortunately trying to do so left me with a totally non-functioning device.
The only thing that Joying offered was a 5% discount on a new unit, and I felt really uncomfortable to buy a new unit only after 3 units, when it was clearly a bad quality control issue.
For this, I will surely look into that other DASAITA units. From checking their latest models, they seem to be cased on PX6, while the newer Joying have the newer Airmont CPUs.
1) Do you think there will be much difference in terms of performance between PX6 and Airmont architecture? They both have 4GB of RAM.
2) Any idea if the DASAITA have the quick wake up from sleep as the joying units? This is an extremely useful feature, as you don't have to wait until the unit becomes usable.
3) Apart from the ability of installing custom ROMs, what is the advantage of having MTCx units?
4) Is the ZLINK solution provided in these units a good solution for having Android Auto? I've been using Android Headunit Reloaded and it has been really good.
5) Is the new built-in DSP available only in the latest Joying models?
Thanks again

1. I don't think so. With 4GB everything runs smoothly and nothing is is taking those CPUs to the max as long as you do not play heavy games.
2. As far as I know (almost?) all newer MTCD/E models do also support quick wake up.
3. 10x more users (at least). 10X more knowledge (I think). All are compatible: per CPU-type/MCU type that is, so every PX6/MTCD is compatible with any other PX6/MTCD.
Look one level higher https://forum.xda-developers.com/android-auto/
And then check the MTCD forums. Read a bit more about them. They wil know about the quick startup.
Eventually I bought a unit from a local store, instead of dealing with shipping, customs etc...

I'm looking to replace my aging MTCB RK3188 head unit which I've been able to keep using thanks to Malaysk's ROM so I'd like to make sure I can flash on to whatever new HU I get since it has several improvements over stock ROMs.
I've read several horror stories about people buying their head units and not being able to flash a custom ROM on them because they don't have an MTCD/E MCU and those seem to be the only ones that have any ROMs for them at the moment so I come to you guys for help in finding something that's MTCD/E and won't break the bank. Everybody seems to agree that the Dasaita Max6 is the best there is, but that's over US$400 (sometimes closer to $500) and I can't justify that amount to myself.
My requirements are universal HU, either single or double DIN (don't care either way), 10" screen, Android 9, 4GB of RAM (don't care to much about ROM) and preferably PX5 or PX6 CPU because I think anything else would get old and slow quickly.
If it has a DSP or the screen can rotate vertically it would be a plus, but I don't know how useful rotating the screen would really be so I don't mind too much.
Thanks in advance guys and let me see your suggestions.
I can think of 3 ways to guaranty it, search the forum for system info, read thru the MTCD MCU list or ask the seller if the HU has an MTC MCU or if it's made by Microntek. I guess you could just ask for recommendations here but those threads don't seem to get much response.
Personally I can tell you the Ownice K3's are MTCE and I would suggest to go for the K3 high if only for the IPS screen. The pro version is PX6 now and adds an HDMI output if that's any use to you. It is MTCP but the only difference appears to be it unlocks the full functionality of the DSP EQ. Check out their Ali store they might even have one with a custom bezel for your car.
Try Enonon they make px5 and px6 . i have px5 mtce octa core 4 gb ram 64 gb rom butt mine is 7" touchscreen double din.
Amazon has some starting under 200.00 Eincar has some
