Carpuride W903 9.3" Wireless Carplay & Android Auto with Dash Cam

If you wanted Apple CarPlay or android auto for your car, this is it. I got quotes from shops to get a unit like this but installed into my dashboard as a new stereo for around $600 and this is so much cheaper and does the same thing the shops were advertising and more, like the auto dimming display. And the added plus of not tearing up my dashboard. Major positives: It’s slim so it doesn’t block my view of the road and doesn’t stand out compared to the rest of my car. The set up process was easy and only took 7 minutes, the longest part of the setup process was figuring out how to snake the cord in a way to make it out of the way. The cord is long and can easily reach the charger in my car, I used cord organizers to help keep the cord neat and tight to reduce it jiggling around. The display itself is bright so easy to see in the day and it dims automatically when it gets dark as to not blind you. The startup process is quick, starts when the ignition is turned on and only takes maybe 10 seconds to automate activate Apple CarPlay. The device also turns off when the ignition is off so there’s no risk of it draining your car battery if it’s left plugged in. Downsides: The dash-cam isn’t useful to me but it’s not the fault of the device. If you actually want to use the dash-cam to its fullest potential you’ll need to put the entire device up high so the camera can see the road ahead. When it’s sitting on your dashboard like how I have mine, its view is pretty limited. Along with the camera field of view, it can’t see very far to the left or right. The screen when ant its darkest setting is just a little too bright, but it’s not terrible enough to irritate my eyes personally, but if you have a stigmatism or are hypersensitive to light, it may be slight to mildly irritating. All in all 10/10 and I’d recommend it to anyone who needs Apple CarPlay/android auto, even cars who don’t have Bluetooth, the aux cord option solves that issue immediately. Get off the fence and buy it! You’ll love it.

Good product. Works as intended with carplay and android auto. Sound via bluetooth is key.

Great portable CarPlay unit with excellent screen quality and performance. Setup was very easy and straightforward, and the system itself is fast and responsive with no noticeable lag. The 9.3” HD IPS display looks sharp, and the brightness is very good overall. In direct sunlight there can be some glare or visibility issues when the sun hits it just right, but nothing that personally bothered me or made it unusable. Wireless CarPlay/Android Auto works smoothly once connected, and the 4K dash cam quality is solid and does its job well. The only downside is that accessing dash cam footage can be a bit complicated at times. Occasionally it asks to disconnect CarPlay to view recordings, and even after disconnecting it sometimes prompts you to reconnect, which can be frustrating. Overall, a well-built and reliable product with strong performance and features. A solid buy.

I wanted to install CarPlay in my 2016 Honda CRV Touring and did not want to through the hassle of replacing the OEM head unit, so I picked this up since I have always heard good reviews about this brand. Install was painless and took less than 5 minutes. It has a slick and more low-key profile so it doesn’t stand out too much. It was super easy to pair my phone via Bluetooth and get CarPlay up and running. It takes less than 20 seconds to boot up and start CarPlay after my car is started. The screen is good quality and responsive to touch or when running apps. Additionally, the brightness is plenty enough to see in direct sunlight and I enjoy that it can auto-adjust based on the amount of light. It also has a dash camera built in that I personally won’t utilize, but I appreciate how I can adjust it so it’s not in my way. Overall, I am really satisfied with this product and recommend it. It is a really good value for the price and an easy way to modernize any car.

This works great but the only thing I don't like it over heats, especially lack of fan. Easy to install and value for your money

This device has a nice interface for Android auto, good size for highlander 2018 or similar model. I used the window suction cup for the unit and it was wobbly and I contacted the customer service and they sent me a new one immediately. The new one works well, however I ended up not using it because it sits too high for my highlander and it blocks my field of vision. I played with it around and finally found the best position is to sit it on the my dash with double sided tapes to the bottom and back of the unit as shown in the picture. It looks fantastic this way, some of my passengers didn't even notice it's an after market unit. Also another pointer from me is to use the power supply that came with the unit, I used a different power supply for a while and noticed that the unit restarts randomly due to the inconsistent power supplied. If you want your phone to not to connect to the unit when it's on, you can't simply disconnect it or turn off the Bluetooth. After some googling, I found out you have to turn off the wifi also for it to not auto connect for Android auto. My wife and I both use the highlander at different time, there's been a few times we have trouble switching connection from her phone to my phone or vice versa. And there's been random disconnect once in a while. Overall solid connection. I also prefer android auto in this longer aspect ratio, in this format, the map is always shown on screen, weather it's on right side or left side. Pro: Nice solid build quality Touch screen sensitive, no lag Can change boot up logo( have to email customer service to do so) Superb customer service Cons: Might be tricky switching phone connection from one phone to another. Random disconnect happens but rare. I woulda given this a 4.5 stars but their customer service makes up for the other half star.

Bottom line - do not buy this set up with the backup camera !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Even AI says it is bad !!! Carpuride W903 - has a horrible back up camera and the company has absolutely NO support. Update - the backup camera is so bad that you cannot even see a car behind you. the display is great, the front camera is crystal clear, but the backup camera is so poor of an image it should not even be sold !!! Update - takes days to get customer support from email as no other way for support - now they want me to do a recording and sent it to them - I paid to wire the thing in and hide the wires - or i would rip it out and send back asked for a better camera but they will not answer that - AI say they have better cameras but this unit has a very bad quality backup camera - again, support is no help!!!!! do not buy this Purchased this set up with the backup camera. I paid to have it all installed. From experience I quickly realized the back up camera is horrible quality!!!! Not just bad but horrible! It will not connect blue tooth with my iphone and there is only email support which trakes days and days to get an answer then it is what is the serial number model number and amazon receipt number. send all that and wait more days. I am very high tech and no way to connect the Carpuride with an iphone via blue tooth. it is connect wifi so everying works except the quality of the back up camera. here is what ChatGPT said about it: Straight talk (based on your situation) Your Carpuride screen is fine (and it is) The factory camera is the weak link A $40–$60 camera upgrade = night and day difference Ya, wished I had checked with AI first - now it is all wired in and i have to get a new camera, long wire and pay someone to install it again. Fun, fun

I bought this CarPlay display back in January and it worked great at first. As a matter of fact I did not know how I survived without it before. But in April it stopped working the same day I added the Carpuride rear brake camera. Could be related but maybe it just had a problem. It started overheating and turning on and off continuously. I was not able to use it. I contacted support for Carpuride. They were very attentive to my needs and I tried all of the different methods provided to initiate a repair on my own. All of these options involved upgrading the software. After a month of none of these methods working they sent me a new unit and it works great now! I have not tried adding the rear camera though. I am a little concerned that this might be what caused the malfunction and I don't want to go without the Display any longer.

Mi BMW 530 con veinte años ahora parece recién sacado de fábrica. No quiero comprar un coche moderno porque este no me ha dado ningún problema en los veinte años que hace que lo compré y a pesar de los 250.000 km que tiene está como nuevo. Le he añadido el Carpuride W903 y ahora tengo un vehículo moderno con una conectividad excelente. Todo ha sido muy fácil gracias a que llevaba de serie Bluetooh. El Carpuride es magnífico y la atención al cliente excelente. Les envié un correo porque las instrucciones vienen en ingles y me enviaron las instrucciones en español en un .pdf en menos de 24 horas. Un aplauso para ellos. Gracias.

Le top du top pour les voitures qui ne sont pas équipés

5 estrellas, mi esposa tiene un se tira 2017 y está muy feliz parece carro del año, tiene su CarPlay que funciona perfecto la pantalla tiene muy buena sensibilidad y el micrófono funciona muy bien para Siri incluso escuchando música fuerte, lo que más me sorprendió fue que las cámaras están grabando todo el tiempo!! Si algún día tiene algun percance tenemos pruebas y se distinguen placas a la perfección, excelente compra

De prijs-kwaliteitverhouding is uitstekend, gezien de uitgebreide accessoires. De achteruitrijcamera is momenteel niet aangesloten, aangezien dit enige tijd en expertise vereist. Mijn Samsung Galaxy S23+ functioneert probleemloos in combinatie met het apparaat. Onlangs heb ik een update van het apparaat willen uitvoeren en contact opgenomen met [email protected]. De ondersteuning was uitstekend, met name gezien mijn gebruik van een Mac in plaats van Windows. Na het ontvangen van een downloadbestand dat specifiek voor Windows bleek te zijn, en na mijn melding hiervan, werd er direct een SD-kaart toegestuurd zonder bijkomende kosten. Daarnaast is er een nieuwe zuignap kosteloos verzonden, nadat de originele niet meer naar behoren functioneerde. Het pakket werd binnen anderhalve week geleverd, inclusief track & trace informatie. De verzending verliep via DHL. Deze positieve ervaring wil ik graag delen, gezien de uitzonderlijke service en klantgerichtheid die ik heb ervaren!

Habe einige Android Auto Displays probiert aber dieses ist bisher das beste. Habe es nun 3 Wochen im Urlaub mit dem Wohnmobil gestestet und bin (nach Hilfe durch den Support) super zufrieden. Gegenüber dem eher viereckigen 7 Zoll Display was wir vorher hatten ist dieses wesentlich besser fürs Sichtfeld im Fahrzeug bei gleichzeitig größerem Display. Bild ist gestochen scharf, Helligkeit (automatisch geregelt) auch bei Sonnenschein gut. Einzig das Display könnte etwas mehr entspiegelt sein. Es reagiert wesentlich schneller als das alte und ist gut und flüssig zu bedienen. Außerdem startet das Gerät in wenigen Sekunden. Bei unserem alten musste man schon mal 20-30 Sekunden mit dem Ausparken warten bis es hochgefahren und die Rückfahrkamera ready war. Also erstes getestetes Gerät behält dieses auch die Uhrzeit. Dies ist vor allem für die Dashcam Aufnahmen entscheidend. Beim alten mussten man nach nur einem Tag mühselig die Uhrzeit neu einstellen. Die Dashcam ist hier in der Höhe zu verstellen was ebenfalls top ist bei der Anbringung im Wohnmobil. Nach circa 3 Tagen Fahrzeit zeigte sich allerdings ein Problem: Das Gerät fing an circa alle 30 Sekunden neu zu booten. Nach erneutem Formatieren der Micro SD-Karte war das Problem allerdings erstmal weg. Habe den Support kontaktiert und diese haben mir dann sehr schnell ein neues Firmware Update zur Verfügung gestellt. Kommunikation mit dem Support war vorbildlich, schnell und in Deutsch. Das Update sollte das Problem generell lösen. Ich hab dieses sofort installiert und für den Rest des dreiwöchigen Urlaubs ist das Problem auch nicht wieder aufgetreten. Ein Überhitzungsproblem habe ich auch niucht festgestellt. Allerdings habe ich sowohl Videoaufnahme als auch Kameraauflösung auf den gleichen Wert (bei mir 720p) eingestellt. Bei unterschiedlichen Einstellungen muss das Gerät ja eventuell umständlich konvertieren vor dem Abspeichern was die Auslastung und damit die Temperatur in die Höhe treibt. Hinweis: viele Nutzer beklagen sich bei vielen Android Auto Geräten über ein aktuelles Problem das die Verbindung über Android Auto abbricht und dann nach einiger Zeit wieder aufgebaut wird. Das ist ein Google Problem das mit den letzten Updates von Android Auto und Android 16 auftritt ! Trotzdem hat der Hersteller (und einige andere vergleichbare) hier einen Fix (s. Beschreibung zur EveLink App im Video) entwickelt. Traurig für Google das sie es nicht schaffen hier schnell einen Fix für den selbst verursachten Fehler bereit zu stellen. Habe nicht alles Funktionen (wie Fm-Transmitter, "SuperLink" etc.) getestet aber insgsesamt von mir eine klare Kaufempfehlung für dieses Gerät um auch ältere Fahrzeuge etwas "smarter" zu machen.
