I installed iBus, CarPlay, Dual DVR, TPMS. Torque was preinstalled (used for wireless OBD2 scanner). CarPlay and iBus are working now. Dual DVR doesn't seem to be working yet (still need to play around). The back up camera comes up FAST. Within a second of getting 12V signal for reverse, even if the unit just started up. Which is a relief. TPMS - haven't tried. Some of the buttons on the unit seem useless (Avin button, CAM button). Wondering if its possible to reprogram them to different apps.

Ok, you were right that it just has the stock android app and no skin or custom rom like the AVIN3 so kinda disappointed as looks like they spent no time/effort on the user interface for the premium they charge over other Android HU.
Mine came with DVR, TPMS, Torque and other apps installed just no iBus but can be easily downloaded so no big deal. The quality definitely feels better than the other android HU I had, buttons feels soft like OEM.

Sound is good (but I'm not an audiophile). CarPlay is an awesome feature (seems like any android unit can have this though) iBus connectivity is great (again any android unit) Reverse camera startup is fast Form factor fits in single DIN slot, I only had to notch certain spots to get the brackets to fit. I could always restore the stock single DIN HU/OBC and CD player if I wanted Cabling is great, didn't have to modify any harnesses Customer Support is Fantastic quick to respond and very knowledgeable Edit: Steering wheel buttons also work. Startup speed is okay Orange Backlight seems to match with rest of interior lights well Shipping was lightning fast. Preordered before release of Feb 26. Tracking started on Feb 27. DHL picked up the package (from Hong Kong) Feb 28. Arrived on my door (in California) on Mar. 1 Downsides: Some of the buttons don't do anything? Hopefully I can figure out how to change them to different apps

The only button that doesn't do anything for me is the APS and the one with 3 dashes in it.
No idea what APS even stands for. The 3 dash seems like "menu" button inside certain apps but it is not doing anything.
