"Having gradually come to the realisation that I rarely actually used the CD player on my existing stereo, and wanted to have Bluetooth functionality in my car, I thought I'd give this a go.
I have to say, I'm very impressed. Great sound, simple setup, and linked to my phone (HTC Sensation, running CyanogenMod 10) extremely simply."

Pros: bluetooth, aux, radio, hands free calling
Cons: no cd player, cant change light colour
"Couldn't decide if I wanted Bluetooth connectivity or not so I bought one with and one without. In the end I kept the one with, this one. Took me 15 mins to fit it (because I have a Micra and although this is standard width the micras space was sufficient except for a dip for a screw that was in the way, halfords lent me a screwdriver and i opened it up and it fitted fine) the 2/3 size is good too. Don't panic when you see the back there is an extention (and remote!!) in a bag so your standard Ariel will fit fine.
The functions are amazing. Especially the Bluetooth, I got my windows phone and my mums android phone connected in minutes. The sound quality is amazing people can hear us well too. You can preset phone number which means you press 2 buttons and you're phoning someone on your speed dial!
The Bluetooth audio connection is fantastic. This means you can play music from your phone or tablet through Bluetooth to the speakers in the car. The functions on the head unit control the songs too. So you dont have to go to your phone to change the song.

One thing to remember: there is no CD player! I didn't realise till my dad pointed it out but i won't use it anyway. I didn't use it on my old one so nothing missed for me.
There's also a remote control in the box and a case for the front panel if you choose to take it off. Nice touches from Sony."

Pros: easy setup, short din so fits easily.
Cons: no cd player
"The item itself if a great device. Managed to fit it in about 5 minutes, and was up and running with Phone connection (Android) in 10 minutes. Also, once connected to the Android we had music streaming straight away, which was a surprise.
For the price I can't really fault it."
