Has anyone had any experience with one of these android head units? Am thinking of swapping out my standard non bluetooth, non sat nav unit for one but would like to know if they are worth the money? Cheers.

I'm also looking for a replacement for my RCD510 so interested in knowing what people's experiences are with this unit.

Yep took the plunge and bought one, all installed and works well. Only problem was the arial adapter didn’t seem to fit so think i am going to have to buy a different one. The one supplied comes with two single blue square plugs that are meant to go into original arial lead, but they wont fit next to each other so I’m guessing I need a double blue plug instead. Can anyone tell me if thats correct, Cheers.
