Lude Generation

Who here owns a Xtrons double din car stereo? What do you think of it?

More specifically any running Android OS, such as the TD729A, TD28AD or TD730A.

I've read that @97lude has a TD717G, but I don't think that's Android.

I had one when I had my prelude.

I found the unit ok. It wasn't running Android, I think it was running Windows CE with an Xtrons front end to it.

Good Points:
Nice big display
Sat Nav was great (although I didn't buy it with the sat nag included, I downloaded a few and had a play about until I found one I was happy with)
Sound quality was better than I expected (but my car speaker weren't that expensive)
I connected my own free view receiver so I could watch TV
Bluetooth worked great with my iPhone

Bad Points:
The UI was sometimes a bit slow (but to honest I had my iPod plugged in all the time for music and as soon as it booted up it went straight into sat nav mode which ran quite fast)
I had a detachable screen on which the clips broke. I replaced them once, but when the broke again I just glued the screen to the unit. I didn't interfere with the operation I could still access the DVD and SD cards, it just meant that I couldn't take the screen off. (Although it didn't bother me really)

Overall it did the job and was a lot cheaper than other units that did the same thing at the time which is why I went for it. I think if I still had the lude I'd be looking for something else now, but I do like my tech so I'd probably be looking to upgrade to something better.

Hope that helps.

looks a bit Chinesey

even though they seem to make decent stuff these days

Thanks @97lude. I've seen a few bad reviews about older Xtrons stereos particularly buggy software which is why I'm hoping that tone with an Android interface should sort that out. But, at the same time, I've read about many people being satisfied too. I've seen videos on YouTube of both non-Android and Android stereos and both their interfaces do look impressive.

Anyone else have experience?
