Wonderful head unit !
Installation was typical for any car stereo. It’s a exact 2 din size as stated. Wiring is color matched to all other car stereo’s I’ve seen. Integration harnesses worked with no issues. The touchscreen is accurate and very responsive. RCA jacks in the back of the unit are tight and hold the cables well.If you email the company they will send you everything you need including instructions for firmware updates and if you specify you’re vehicle make they will also include a new boot screen logo so it will display you’re make of vehicle on startup. Download everything “ one update at a time “ on a usb flash drive insert that into the stereo and it automatically installs the update. The company is extremely quick to respond to emails. I’m throughly impressed with unit and the companies response time when contacted. All instructions are plain English and well written. Easy to follow. The unit and the whole experience was far better than expected and in my opinion it’s a winner !!

Surprisingly good, especially for this price
I'll preface this review by saying that I have been a car audio hobbyist for over 40 years and have experience installing everything from simple replacement radios to high end, multi-amplifier, separate-component car audio systems. This is not my first installation, and I come to this subject with knowledge, standards, and some expectations.With that in mind, I can honestly say that I am impressed with the SJoyBring JOY-W019. It is *a lot* better than it needs to be at its price point.I put this unit in our 2002 Honda Accord (250k+ miles), which is rough-looking but stupidly reliable, despite being on hospice-level care for the last 5 years. Until now this car lacked modern A/V and navigation features, but the W019 fills that need, and it's a huge improvement! I just got back from completing a 500 mile road trip with the new head unit in the car, and I can share some thoughts on it.What I like:All of the features in the W019 (and bundled cameras!) seem to work as described!! The built-in feature set works: the built-in radio reception is very good, the software support for the cameras is fair/ok (and works ok once you get the hang of it), and most importantly, the CarPlay functionality is outstanding. The built-in mic works well enough for phone conversations, and I have not had any issues connecting my iPhone 12 Mini via wireless Apple CarPlay; imho the CarPlay system works *extremely* well, and since this was my main reason for purchase, I am quite happy about that! Now that my phone is paired to the W019 CarPlay appears automatically as soon as the console boots, which is within about 20 seconds of starting the vehicle.The JOY-W019 screen has very good resolution, and the touch screen seems to work as expected - no issues at all so far.The bundle I purchased included a dash cam and backup camera, and although the dash cam controls are a bit funky to use, the dash cam seems to work well (no issues retaining settings, it turns on automatically as expected, it has various parameters you can control via software and it remembers those settings, etc.). The backup camera feature also works well, though admittedly I am using a license plate frame-style backup camera made by another company. That works great with the W019 and hasn’t caused any issues, fwiw.What I like most: The wireless Apple CarPlay works seamlessly, and this 21yo vehicle now has reliable navigation, Spotify support, a built in EQ, and a subwoofer line out w/a several options for the crossover point. I am *very* pleased with this unit and these features!What I don’t like:I have not had any issues with their software, but SJoyBring could be more forthcoming about identifying the current version of the W019’s software on their website! The software in the W019 can be updated, if necessary, but SJoyBring doesn’t have any firmware info on their website, and you have to pry the info from them via email. It would be very helpful if they identified the current software version on their website and made updates to the current software version publicly available. Instead, you need to write to SJoyBring tech support and provide complete proof of purchase before they will provide *any* firmware info, and this makes for some tedious back-and-forth email exchanges.Other than that minor gripe, I really don’t have any other criticisms to offer. This unit far exceeds my expectations for a <$200 wireless Apple CarPlay compatible head unit with 4x 60W(-ish) output, various line outputs, and included front/rear cameras.TL;DR: I bought one of these and have used it for >500 miles. It seems to work well so far and I am very happy with my purchase.

Good for the money.
So far, there are no major issues with this radio. This was installed into a 2000 pick up truck. The dash bezel had to be modified and a trim ring had to be added to the dash basil to clean up the look. These parts were available from others. Sometimes it is a little glitchy. When the forward facing camera comes on when first starting the vehicle it will stay on. The camera will display on the radio screen and the radio will not play. This only seemed to happen when it was very cold outside. You will have to turn off the vehicle so that the radio will turn off to reset it. Then it would work like the radio should. The back up camera is clear on the screen and works very well. I have a manual transmission so I tapped into the back up lights to power the back up camera. The truck is also an extra cab and the cord from the camera to the radio was long enough to reach. Once the camera was mounted the lines that showed up on the screen like most cars could then be adjusted according to where it was mounted. These adjustments would allow you to back up to something very close and then set the angles in the distances of the lines on the screen to give you a much better indication of how close you were to something. The only thing that I might have changed would be to put a license plate mounted camera rather than this style camera as I did not have a good place to mount it so I just screwed it to the middle of my license plate. This has not caused any problems other than aesthetics. The nice thing about putting it in the middle of my license plate is when I’m backing into my trailer to hook up. I can watch it in the back up camera. For the money this was a decent purchase. I would definitely buy another one if I had to. In case you haven’t looked, the average cost for a shall we say high end radio with a back up camera and a forward facing camera combination kit would cost for my vehicle roughly $500.00 to $800.00. Due to the fact that my biggest goal is to be able to connect my phone into my radio, so I could play my music and be able to use the map feature on my phone this was a good choice. The only thing I would’ve added would have been to add the external mic. When you’re driving down the road in a higher speed and this vehicle is not the quietest to drive the external mic would’ve helped when talking on the phone. It seams to do fine when at low speeds but it picks up the background noise at higher speeds.

Perfect Aftermarket Stereo
I like how the unit itself is lightweight, simple enough wires, and everything is basically functional. However, if you have something like a mustang (Like i Do) then you'd want to preserve the mach surround sound system because the factory stereo comes with a built in amp. This one does not, so you'll have to buy a module from PAC to preserve the premium audio from the original amp.Another thing is that you'll have to buy a dash kit depending on your original brackets, along with a harness adapter kit.Other than that I don't have a problem with the unit, it was relatively straight forward, doesn't drain my battery and works how I'd like it to. The brightness is just perfect because you can adjust it, and it just so happened to be the PERFECT size for my mustang.
