CARPURIDE W905 9.5" Carplay & Android Auto & Dual Cam

...The audio on phone calls is terrible and the text messaging doesn't work at all. What is odd is that I can hear music very well through my in-helmet headphones but phone calls are awful and again, text messages are not even coming through 90% or more of the time. Otherwise this is a fine unit and it works very well on my Harley Ultra Classic. With those two caveats explained, I still consider this to be recommendable. Thanks! 07/29/2024 I returned the unit today as I think mine is faulty as it is just getting worse. Once the return is verified I will order another from the company in the hope that the phone and text and Siri functions all work. The unit would seize up and music was no longer being played. Siri does not respond and I could never receive or send a text and the call functions were also non-functioning. Hopefully the next one I try will do everything as advertised. Thanks! 09/30/2024 Update! I ordered another one and received it and installed it on my Ultra Classic. This one works with the following caveats: The music portion is very good and the ease of use is excellent. And now for the phone, texting and just asking Siri for assistance. My bike has stock CVO pipes on it but the end caps are missing. It still seems louder than I would like. Now, I cannot make a phone call using Siri because I cannot be heard. I decided it was a problem with the mic and the noise level so a cheap (literally!) fix was to take a small zip-lock bag and put it over the mike and use a rubber band to hold it on. I then cut a hole on the side of the mike that faces my mouth. I then went out to test my "theory" eliminating as much directional sound as possible should allow the Carpuride to hear my voice. A friend texted me and it came through via Siri speaking to me but I was unable to replay. I opened my helmet up and requested Siri to call my friend. It worked! I then spoke with her on the freeway and on surface streets and had no problems at all. She reported that I was easy to hear too! After the call, I asked Siri to play some Frank Sinatra and...BAZINGA! It worked! I also asked for directions and Siri, through the Carpuride provided them with voice prompting! I have not ridden for a week now but will get back on soon for more testing but I can say that now I recommend the Carpuride highly. I am using the USB power but will most likely hard-wire it to the bike's battery sometime down the road perhaps prior to taking a 1,000 mile tour of Arizona in the near future! Any changes/problems I will update here! Thank you!

This is my second such device. I bought one of the 10 inch horizontal unit from another company for my other car and now this one. I must say this is pretty good unit, not that my other device had any issues as well. But for the good points on this unit...This is pretty responsive, bright and clear device. Camera looks good, although am only using the front camera for now. The unit looks sturdy with good mounting options and sound output options as well. It has pretty good reboot time of about 10-15 seconds to be operational after i start my car so works good for all needs of music or gps. Music from any previously used music apps starts automatically once its connected and is seamless and start screen for me is the gps and am using android play. My wife has Apple play but if i keep both configured it does not connect successfully or atleast am not able to make this work till now so only keep mine connected for now. Bad: - although the mounting points and options are good, the unit is heavy so its mostly should be a permanent mount and should not be thought of using it with different cars. The unit is also big so although this is also a good point for using it realistically for gps and everything is big and clear for directions and such, this is also difficult to hide on the dash. so that has to be given a thought. Personally I liked that it is big so all directions for gps is big bright and clear vs my other unit that is 10 inch horizontal low profile unit. I would say that this unit is little more responsive and touch screen feels nice, however since the screen is big its a fingerprint magnet. I would definitely recommend this as a daily driver unit for all practical purposes inspite of the price being little on the higher side as there are not many bad points on the unit itself in terms of electronics or its function

So I go this to hopefully replace my daughters aging car play screen. I was very disappointed. First, it came with the wrong power adapter, I reached out to the seller, and they sent me a new one but that took 2 weeks. The included one was USB C but this uses a barrel adapter. Once we were able to power on its slow, and I mean slow, anything in maps moves slow, my daughters old $40 unit outperforms this one. Send the Icons all of the are huge, the resolution is set way to large and no way of changing it. Even in Car play everything is massive for a 9-inch screen they should have better resolution. I have returned the item as it was just not even close to being the $200 dollars.

Player , I had purchased the w701 i liked it so much.I bought one for my old truck just larger and the w901 had a new car mount which was perfect and placed the screen at dash lever instead of above the dash. Excellent unit well worth the price and as with the w701 the wireless is better than my new car which randomly disconnects.. highly recommended

I have used the Carpuride for a few months now. Overall I would say it works okay. The screen brightness is more than adequate in all lighting conditions and is clear and easy to read. The size is a good compromise between functionality and ease of installation. All necessary hardware is included for the installation and it takes only a few minutes to get it up and running. I have experienced an issue with the function on it. The second time I used it, it lost connection to my phone and the screen returned to the home screen. The bluetooth icon had an X though it. After restarting the Carpuride it returned to normal. I sent customer service an email and they responded fairly quickly asking a few questions and sent an update to the firmware. I installed it but after about a half dozen more rides, it did it again. Not sure how reliable the system is as this isn't an issue I have experienced with any other device I am currently using. The update process is not the most convenient. It requires downloading the file to a micro SD card and then inserting the card into the Carpuride. The slot for the card is recessed making it difficult to install the card without removing the unit from the mounting bracket. This design could have been much more user friendly and the whole process could be done wirelessly had they added this feature. My Garmin GPS does all its updates wirelessly and seamlessly. Despite this process the issue is still there and at this point I am going to just continue using it as is. I reinstalled my Garmin GPS and am using it in addition to the Carpuride. It has always worked flawlessly and has never given me an issue while out riding. It does everything I need should the Carpuride act up. When I am out riding the last thing I want to do is spend time trying to get a device working along side the road. Hopefully Carpuride gets enough feedback from users and their future updated devices will improve. As a Car Play device is works adequately. Thus far I can't really say it has added a lot of benefit over my Garmin and it probably isn't something I would buy again. If you don't already have a high quality motorcycle GPS then this would be a cheaper alternative that provides decent mapping along with a few other features that Car Play can provide. I use a helmet communicator which works great for calls or communications from my phone so I am not using this function on the Carpuride. I am currently trying to set up the Carpuride for weather monitoring and secondary mapping. If I can get this accomplished then it will serve the purpose I need and should the system act up again, it really isn't an issue that will bother me on the ride. Not really an ideal situation given the cost of the Carpuride but it doesn't seem they have a fix yet. Hopefully they will eventually.

The company gets 5 stars. The head unit itself was great. Clear screen, no buffering, sharp. The reason i gave 3 stars is because I have a Samsung A phone and apparently those A phones have a tendency to drop Android Auto from the Head Unit. This happened every 5 minutes so i had to return the unit. The company tried everything to make it work. When the software gets an update, i most likely will go back to Carpuride as they were honest and helpful.

Easy install, mount is very secure, I live on a gravel road so I was worried how stable it would be, it is rock stable. Easy to remove for parking. It would be nice to have a lock feature on the mount so I am not worried about leaving it mounted while I’m away from my bike, other than that it works amazing. Connects quick and stays connected. CarPlay apps work great with zero issues. Screen is very bright and easy to read even in direct sunlight. Having GPS is a game changer for older bikes done the Bluetooth connection is flawless for my headset. At first I thought the 7” display was too big but after playing around with mounting positions I am very happy with the 7” size. 1000mi in and I 100% would recommend.

I don't usually leave bad reviews, but there are some major flaws with the technology on this product. Let's start with the Bluetooth. It was easy enough to connect for the first time. The sound was a bit sketchy and it didn't handle switching between music and navigation output. The music would be playing then navigation would give guidance and then the music wouldn't come back on or only come back in one ear bud. I was using an old pair of jlab bt over ear buds so I got a new pair of skull candy. They were about the same or worse and switching the connection was confusing and took longer than it should have. When they worked it was ok but the volume was limited and no way to control the system volume without going into settings. Also complicated. The manual was barely readable. No help. If I was out riding and stopped for gas or whatever, the buds would not reconnect unless they powered down and the timeout on the unit was reached. Finally the screen did not switch between day and night mode. I reset it and checked the phone settings. Nothing fixed it. I took it off the bike and will maybe use it for long trips just for non audio guidance, but I'm done messing with the bluetooth. Not recommended

Al principio bien pero al mes comenzó a fallar se apagaba solo

Excelente producto. Demasiado grande para mí Renault Kwid que es un auto muy pequeño.

Al instalar la cámara de reversa salen rayas horizontales

Mi equipo se conecta al Bluetooth y se desconecta de la nada y se vuelve a conectar sola, necesito ayuda con eso

Sometimes CarPlay will freeze and flash when trying to listen to a message or use Siri. You have to restart the entire unit. In order for car play to work properly with my Sena. Connected Sena to phone, CarPlay unit to the phone, then went to audio output on the Home Screen and selected CarPlay mode. If you don’t do that it’s even worse!
