BOSS Audio Systems BVCP9700A CarPlay Android Car Stereo, 7 Inch Touchscreen

Easy to install, responsiveness is usually spot on. It does occasionally glitch and will also occasionally randomly flip to the radio. Brightness is adjustable and will dim at night. Fits great sound quality is great. Overall I say it is worth it! Connectivity is decent but does have issues on occasion but there again for how adorable it is I don’t have any legit complains

I desperately needed some way to listen to music in my recently bought 2010 Genesis. It had no Bluetooth music and the aux did not work so I was stuck listening to the radio like old times. So I bought this one (I bought an off brand/Chinese one before this one but it did not fit and had to return it). Instantly changed my riding experience. PROS - Wireless or wired Apple CarPlay (I love it so much). - All the features that come with Apple CarPlay. Music, navigation, etc. (I mostly just use it for Spotify). - You now have a good quality double din stereo in your car that’s not stupidly expensive. That’s awesome by itself. - Just looks good and boosts your driving experience. CONS - Has a little bit of half second delay when clicking anything. - No knob to change volume. I seriously did not know that I would hate the + and - buttons for volume adjustment. It’s fine though, I just wished it had a knob. - Not too big of a deal but I’ve had a couple of instances where it just restarts out of no where. Comes back to life in like 7 seconds like nothing happened. - The mic it comes with is kinda trash. You’ll just have to yell at whoever you’re on the call with if your using hands free calling. But that’s all the bad stuff. If you ask me, the pros heavily outweigh the cons. I changed the stereo myself and I recommend to do heavy research before purchasing any stereo. For me, I had to buy like 3 separate things, 2 harnesses and a bezel, to install any stereo. YOU WILL NEED TO CUT WIRES AND CONFECT THEM. It’s not that hard though because the wires the stereo has are color coded and named to make connecting wires easy. 8/10 stereo

Looks pretty good. A little wiring work to get it to function in a 45 year old car. The Android connect works good. Seems like a great value. Can't wait to try it out with whole system. Update: 5 weeks of diagnosing and replacing most everything for a high pitched squeal has led me back to the head unit. A 20$ unit works perfect. This one squeals as soon as the key is in run. Outside the return window... update 2: Customer service tried to help, but there appears to be something wrong with unit. Boss Audio's CS has also been helpful and says I can return to them. update3: replacement on way. Hope it works. Update 4: For some reason, this family seems to be susceptible to noise. But, Boss service has been fantastic to work with. Boost to 4 stars for the service. Great feature set on the unit. Works great except for noise immunity. More work to come to find it.

This is great! Its working awesome and sounds better than the stock radio. The car play works flawlessly.

Good replacement for my older, less powerful Sony head unit. The rear USB cables allow for some custom console phone connections and an additional USB port for loading photos or playing movies. The other port is labeled for Android Auto or Apple CarPlay. This newer design forces the installation of a custom single pole single throw toggle switch to simulate the parking brake though. Plenty of YT vids on this though. The old school tap off the negative wire no longer works. The 300+ watts also really makes the sub sound better too. Adding images from a USB drive as wallpapers is a little tricky, as you must rotate the image when reviewing them for the button to select it to be visible, then after a few seconds it will be saved. Images are only visible when using the tuner. Oh, and the button illumination color is NOT changeable on the 9700A model. You only get blue. So far, so good though. November 2025 Update Unit is starting to have random issues where the display is black after starting the vehicle. While sound is still heard, volume controls do not work. Issue is resolved by restarting the vehicle. Still looking for a pattern of failure before seeking warranty service.

It worked OK, but sound quality was meh at best. The thing that really killed it for me is that while running Android Auto, this thing would disconnect and reset constantly. Entire commute, every couple of minutes. I checked all wiring and found no issues. Finally hit it in frustration only to find the glass was as weak as the processor. Buying a Pioneer now like I should have in the first place.

We got this car stereo mainly so our son wouldn’t need to look at his phone for directions while driving. The wireless CarPlay feature works great and makes everything much more convenient and safer. He really loves using it, and it’s been a great upgrade for the car overall.

The radio looks great in my 07 pick up and is definitely an upgrade to what I had. The install was fairly easy and straightforward. It's not an overly expensive radio but it works well, for the most part. My only hesitation with recommending it outright is that there is some kind of issue with messaging and phone calls through apple car play. I've attempted to troubleshoot it with Boss but am still having connectivity issues in that regard. When it works, it works great. When it doesn't, it's a pain because the reason I bought it was for hands free messaging, phone calls, and other features through apple car play. Maybe this is only an issue with my radio, but you should know about it.

i bought this headunit for my 2011 golf. the headunit itself is great, apple car play is wired and wireless, it’s got the option for 2 cameras (front and back), great sound, it’s fast for input (no lagging when you press a button) etc. a lot of great things i could say. to keep it short, if you’re putting this headunit or any headunit similar to this in your VW, you’ll need to supply an external ignition source, or else the radio won’t turn off when you turn off your car, and there is no way to turn off the radio from the actual radio itself. you’ll need to wire into something else. this is where i’ve been having trouble. i’ve tried piggybacking off some fuses in the fuse box and ive had no luck. i’ve read a lot of articles saying you need to wire into the 12v cigarette lighter, which is what i’ll try next. i’ll update if anything changes. UPDATE : i’ve fixed the issue, the piggyback worked. and i’ve been using it the last couple months, and genuinely for the price, 5 stars. i haven’t even used all of its capabilities (haven’t hooked up any cameras to it, it has 2 input for cameras !!) apple carplay is great, no issues! i love it :) definitely recommend

I ordered a boss double din head unit and there is no wiring harness with it

Lo eh usado alrededor de 2 años sin parar y es un buen reproductor a pesar de su precio y una opción confiable para un sonido más discreto sin necesidad de muchas cosas adicionales

جوده عاليه وصوت فخم جدا أعجبني ووفقني الله به

Its ok but anoying installing as no oem or after market harness readily available and the usb inputs and apple car play are cables from the rear which make your car look ugly, this is not the stereo for you if you don’t want cables hanging out of your dash. Would not buy again.
