Unschlagbar für den Preis
Bin sehr zufrieden mit dem Produkt, leider ist das erste nach einem Monat kaputt gegangen (Montagsprodukt). Doch ist der Support (auf Englisch) ziemlich schnell und fit.
Nach kurzen Email Verlauf wurde mir direkt vom Hersteller ein neues Gert ohne wenn und aber zugesendet.

Su uso
La verdad es que todava no la he usado mucho, fue un capricho y lo poco que la he probado cumple con su cometido, la pantalla bien y su software para su precio correcto, lo nico que no me ha gustado son sus anclajes de la pantalla pues el que he puesto fijo no queda muy sujeta y se mueve bastante tambien programas una ruta no suena la voz del navegador habindolo instalado por bluetooth, no me preocupa y lo agradezco pues ha veces es un poco pesado el que te este informando de todos los datos de la ruta programada, as que por el precio tampoco puedes exigir mas.

Blackbox
If you have a blackbox that’s watch’s if you’re on your phone, connect the car play through Bluetooth and it doesn’t show you’re on your phone, good quality, came really fast and fits and sticks perfectly on my dash, 5 start’s all round

Love it!
I have been after one of these for so long! I’m always jealous of my husbands car with the big screen for his music and navigation etc, and now I can bring my 10 plus year old car up to date!

Really easy to set up. Sharp looking screen. Can be attached easily enough. Highly recommend.

A Fairly Priced and Versatile Multimedia Dashboard Console
The Carpuride C3 unit is referred to by the manufacturer as its “best budget-friendly smart multimedia dashboard console”. That’s a fair statement, as the C3 is much cheaper than Carpuride’s other dashboard consoles such as the W900 range (W901 Pro, etc.), some of which cost twice as much as the C3. Despite this price difference, the C3 has all the functionality of the more expensive Carpuride models. Like them, it’s compatible with both Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, making it suitable for practically all smartphone users. Also like the more expensive dashboard consoles, the C3 unit features a sensitive full-colour touchscreen with a host of features. Perfect.

The C3 comes with a detachable sunshade screen that renders the display easier to read in bright sunlight. Why don’t satnavs come with that same feature? They should.

Two brackets are included in the box: one for attaching to a dashboard, the other for mounting on a windscreen. Both brackets are sturdily built and provide a stable fixture for your C3 unit.

The C3 supports three different voice-control protocols: Apple Siri, Android Voice Control, and Google Assistant. Ideal for operating the unit in a hands-free way, allowing you to keep your hands where they should be while you drive (on the steering wheel!).

There are three sound-output options too: FM transmitter, AUX cable, or built-in 2W speaker. Like everything else about this unit, these sound options seem to have been designed for maximum user-friendliness. Rather than dictating how the unit operates, the manufacturer has left that very much up to the user. I like that.

No criticisms at all. The C3 is a fairly priced and versatile piece of kit for any motor vehicle.

Handy for older cars but not perfec
My older car doesn’t have the features found in a modern vehicle, so no built-in sat-nav, DAB or touch screen controls for music. This device offers the chance to upgrade relatively simply, and at a lower cost than buying an upgrade to the car’s stereo. The set includes the screen, and the various parts that are needed to set it up. An instruction book is included but to be fair it I didn’t find it as informative as it should have been. A big issue for me has been that the power supply to the screen can only be made to a 12v outlet, with no option to hard-wire or use a USB outlet. That’s a great shame for me as my 12v outlet was already taken to power a dashcam via USB, and I’ve had to buy and use an extra 12v adapter in order to use this device.

Connecting to my Android phone works well enough with Bluetooth for many functions which is good, but as this device is designed to be used in older cars (without built-in displays for example) some extra flexibility with power seems an essential to me. Overall I quite like the device but there are pitfalls I hadn’t expected which make regular use of this it a less attractive option than simply using my phone in a cradle. It is a handy device for those whose car doesn’t have modern features but it isn’t perfect.

Fitted to old phone vent mou
I installed this in an older car that doesn’t have Android Auto but does have an aux input to plug a 3.5mm jack into. I found that one of the supplied mounts used a ball joint that’s the same size as an old air vent mount I already had so I tried using that to clip it the vent and it’s working pretty well so far. All you have to do is pop the ball into the supplied mounting part and tighten it up, but obviously the ball has to be the right size. I think they might be fairly standard.

It says in the manual that the company will supply additional / different mounts for free on request so I might try asking for a CD slot mount since we never use the CD slot anyway and maybe that will be better but the vent mount is surprisingly sturdy for now.

The aux input is in the centre console so running the wires (power and audio) tidily was a bit of a challenge. Thankfully I’ve done this sort of thing before so I managed to run them behind some of the trim panels without too much difficulty and now it looks good. The ends of the cables that plug into the unit are both right angled and recessed so they can be run across the back, over the mount and down so that they’re barely visible from the front, which helps.

Overall it looks great in the car and is a definite upgrade. I’m used to using Android Auto from a different vehicle so I miss it when I drive this one and now it’s in there I don’t want to go back to not having it. It’s so convenient while driving to have both navigation and all your audio apps available without having to touch your phone.

Using it is great. The touchscreen is very responsive and in use it’s almost identical to my other vehicle that has Android Auto built in. Everything displays nice and clearly and it’s a pleasure to drive and navigate with.

Some things worth noting:

* The sound quality is excellent through a wired aux connection. The built in speaker would be OK for navigation but not really for music. I haven’t tried the FM transmitter but from previous experience I wouldn’t expect it to be flawless. Sadly you can’t use Bluetooth to connect it to the car stereo.

* It reconnects automatically when you starts the car but it does take a few seconds. No big deal.

* Once it starts into Android Auto there doesn’t seem to be a way to get back to the main menu screen without disconnecting from the phone end. Not a big deal because I can’t see much reason to need to do so once it’s initially set up but it did confuse me at first when I needed to change the audio output settings.

* When you use a navigation app it still uses your phone’s GPS receiver so you need to make sure it has a good view of the sky. If it’s buried in your pocket or a bag then you might find it has trouble getting an accurate position so it might be a good idea to put the phone in a holder or on the centre console or something so that it works well. If you use the wireless Android Auto connection then you don’t have to have a wire connected and the phone’s screen can stay off. The wireless connection is convenient but using a wire might be preferable for longer journeys so it keep your battery topped up. Personally I use wireless but I plug in a cable purely for charging when needed so I have the best of both worlds.

* There’s a volume control on the device and also the car’s normal volume control. This could get confusing because they are in series i.e. the volume you send out from the device is then again sent through the car’s volume control. I think it’ll be best to set the device volume once and then leave it alone and use the car’s volume control from then on so it’s consistent with any other inputs you use and you can still use the steering wheel volume controls (if you have them). On the device you can set the volume for navigation and audio separately, which is nice for balancing them so one isn’t annoyingly louder than the other. It’s pretty much a set once and forget thing.

* Apparently the company will create a customised update for you (for free) with your own boot screen if you send them an image. This sounds great and I might ask them for one with the car’s emblem on it, or maybe a photo.

* Removing and reinstalling it could be a bit of a pain if you intend to do it every time you park the car. I hope leaving it in place doesn’t attract thieves. In my case I think using a CD slot mount would help it to look more like it’s part of the car and therefore not worth breaking in for.

Needs a Bluetooth & screen mirroring update, but otherwise, it's pretty good.
If you’ve a car that doesn’t have android auto, this is a potential way round the situation.
You will want to have some sort of auxiliary port on your car stereo to get the sound through the car speakers, though.
It’s a nice sized screen for things like Google maps. It’ll also position the controls for Spotify on the screen, beside your nap, as well as showing text & WhatsApp messages. This is a handy way of being able to reply while driving, as it’ll send spoken messages as texts.
Screen mirroring is possible, but very limited. It needs done by a cable rather than casting it & a lot of apps out there won’t allow screen share. You also need a phone that has video out settings via your USB C….a lot of phones font have this built in.
It also won’t allow Bluetooth out to your stereo, only Bluetooth in from a device like your phone, so audio out has to be done by a 3.5mm headphone style cable, then plug it into the cars AUX input.
If you’ve a car that doesn’t have Bluetooth anyway, this is a step up, but a car with Bluetooth, it’s a step down.
It comes with an arm to let you attach it to the dash or windscreen, however, if you contact customer service, they will send you a CD slot mount, I’ve contacted them for one. It hasn’t arrived as yet, but it’s been 10 days & I think it’s being sent from the US.
As the unit isn’t built into the dash, you will find yourself with a slight dilemma…do I leave it in position in the car, risking a break in, or do you hide it away after each trip…. hiding it will quickly become a chore & you’ll find yourself not using it unless you really need it for Google maps, or maybe on a long journey it’s worth taking it out & plugging it in.
Definitely needs a Bluetooth out option, maybe the more expensive models feature that.

Great screen for older cars
I got to say I really like this car tablet/screen, it makes my car feel more upto date with Android/Apple car play.
You get everything you need in the box, a mounting stand to have it permanently based, a suction cup to move it to where you want and all the necessary cables to get power/ auxiliary output.
Really easy to set up, its pretty much plug in a go, the stands can be adjusted to get a good position and hold it in place well with minimal bouncing.
The screen itself is smooth, registers touchs good with a nice menu that is easy to navigate.
I connected my android phone by Bluetooth and was ready to go with my music or Google maps, I got this as the idrive sat nav in my car is quite dated and having google maps is so much better and much more upto date with live traffic data.
I like it connects without any input when I get in the car, it just auto connects with Bluetooth and I like the small removable sun screen which is useful on bright days.
I like the duel display when music and maps are both active, clear and easy to use
Overall I like using it, it sounds good when using the auxiliary cable but will say the speakers in the device itself aren’t that loud but still do the job if you need to use them.
Instructions are adequate and show everything to get you started.
My daughters also connected easy with their iPhone without any issues.
A good little device to bring an old car more upto date, would recommend.

Fantastic neat way to retrofit CarPlay to an older ca
Fantastic neat way to retrofit apple CarPlay to an older car. Fairly easy to set up and use especially with the instructions. Has a setting to flip between left hand drive and right hand drive which is great and a nice big bright and responsive screen. The only real issue I have with it is that it doesn’t have a usb/usb-c port on the power plug or doesn’t come with a cable to power it via USB-c etc so I have had to purchase a car lighter power splitter so that I can also have suitable USB ports for me and my passengers to charge our devices from.
