Along the left side of the display console, you’ll find all the available I/O ports. The result is a rather large, vibrant display with a wide viewing angle, and the higher resolution display allows for more icons per screen in CarPlay than most aftermarket receivers.Īt the top of the display, there is a small power button, that when held down will turn the display on/off, and a short press of this button will mute the display’s audio. It features an IPS display, with a native resolution of 1024×600. At 9-inches this display is a lot bigger than the smaller 7-inch standalone CarPlay displays I’ve reviewed in the past. In the box, you get a paper instruction manual, one adjustable dashboard mounting bracket and an adhesive sticker for its base, there is an adjustable mount that attaches to the windscreen via a suction cup, a 12v adapter charging cable, an AUX audio cable, a ball joint adapter, the optional rearview camera and installation kit, and finally, there is the 9-inch car stereo display itself. And if you want to add a rearview camera to your car, there is an optional rear camera accessory kit that also works alongside this display.


If you want to have CarPlay or Android Auto in your car but you don’t want to go through a messy or technical install, this standalone display from Carpuride is a simple plug-and-play way to get CarPlay or Android Auto in your vehicle without the technical, time consuming, and a rather costly install.Ĭarpuride offers a few models including a 7-inch stereo display, but the one I am reviewing today is their 9-inch IPS touch screen display model, which allows you to run both wireless CarPlay and Android Auto from your mobile, stream media over Airplay or MirrorLink, play media from a USB drive or SD card, Bluetooth music and make calls, and have the audio play from your car speakers by using either its built-in FM transmitter, an auxiliary audio output cable, or you can use its internal 3W speaker.
