Tesla Style Display
#41
To elaborate on my needs just a little, I’m running windows 10 pro. I want to be able to use it for work (one problem I found with the android headunit I have is that vpn stuff doesn’t work). I am also going to be using it to be able to run the rear seat entertainment for my girls. Eventually I would like to put in a true HUD to the lower portion of the windshield, but that is way down he road. So what I’m doing is a lot more elaborate than most, and I’m already in for a penny so I might as well make it look good.
As far as the android head units go I agree they all suck. I purchased one mainly because it was so cheap I figured I would see how it would work out. Not very well, although for many people it might be okay. Sadly it isn’t a case of just wait for a major manufacturer to put out something decent that runs android windows or Linux, because it simply isn’t going to happen.

That's the whole point of it, just like a Tesla!! If you don't like that, you might be better off at looking at aftermarket head units, such as a double din

Does anyone know.....
I've been following prices on a Lot of these websites and as far as Canadian Price/Translation, they're still a little-high. I only say that, because nobody can seem to tell me flat-out/if All the audio of the unit is Bluetooth, or just the tied-in phone,etc. I'd be perfectly happy with my current "Tab-S2" mount in my '16 F-150. The Bluetooth Lag that throws off the Audio-video sync however, makes me insane. I'd change over to the "Tesla/style" package if this would eliminate the need for a custom "Aux" input. If I can just tie my "WD hard drive" to a unit like this and be Done, I'd probably jump on the next deal to come-along. Besides...there's no doubt that these units Do look really nice. From what I've heard of the "Linkswell" products, they've been taking extra steps by adding a little more "QC" to the products they release.

Can anyone answer a question of how this works with Sirius? When you switch the units do you need to call Sirius and switch radio numbers? The reason I ask is because I bought a lifetime subscription when Sirius first started which in actuality isnt really lifetime. You are allowed to transfer your subscription to a new radio 3 times and I have only 1 transfer left which I will be using to switch to the radio in my new truck. If the Phoenix radio has a separate Sirius radio that needs to be activated then that would count as another transfer and I wouldnt be able to
