Best mid budget dash cam

Rare 5 Star- I decided to buy a 3-way camera for my newest and most expensive vehicle knowing crime is up and I wasn't going to be doing ride share, I wanted the protections that I got while using one as a ride share driver. So I purchased; to date, my best unit under $200 (see picture) but I don't want to try and install the back window camera. I looked around for many local places and most of them had some ridiculous charge because I didn't want to buy the unit from them so I ended up making an appointment here. The guy that helped me I am sure is the owner. He began installing the wires and in-between he had a huge shipment he was expecting. He told me in advance that it was coming and in between him getting it in we began to chat a bit. No matter the location, look of and individual, what there heritage is or sex, I have to tell you people are people! This mandatory honored my military service and took care of my bill. I have people tell me all the time "thank you for your service" and it is still just as awkward and empty statement. This guy put his time, effort and money beside the statement. He didn't have to do that "You put your life in risk for us" he said. Listen people, that's the acknowledgement that veterans want, true inquisitivenes about we did, why we joined and how are we doing. 5 stars for Fat Boys

One of the best places to come to for audio service professionals. Yes the place is busy at times( popular.‍) so getting a appt is best Chance of getting seen instead of just popping up ,unless you're just trying to buy audio equipment. JOSE Sr is from the old school.Will work with you, if you're cool folks and come with NO Attitude.....

Best place to come to if you're into audio. Competition. Only place in the Oakland, Richmond area that knows about quality audio systems

They didn't have the type of radio that I wanted in stock, so the owner suggested I pick it up at Best Buy and come back for the install - which I did.

Got a reasonable quote to have a new radio and backup camera installed to my 2007 Honda Accord…read moreafter reaching out via Yelp. When I came into the shop to have the work done, Sayed said that because my radio was more complicated than he was able to assess, he was supposed to quote me $100 higher, even though I had provided the links to the products beforehand (because Yelp combined the two links I sent into one line when viewed on desktop, he wasn't able to figure out how to click into them ahead of me dropping off the car). That said, Sayed was generous enough to split the difference at $50 and then proceeded to deliver excellent customer service - he was attentive, thoughtful, and even gave a personal walkthrough of all the controls and other tips to keep in mind when I picked up the car. I've been using the unit for a couple of days now and can say the installation was flawless. Would come here again and recommend Precision Auto Stereo to anyone.

Wrote this same review on Street Beat as they are one and the same…read more This experience was by far the worst that I came with so much time, money, and patience. Please note that this business is also connected with PRECISION AUDIO (https://www.yelp.com/biz/precision-auto-stereo-hayward?osq=precision+audio&override_cta=Request+pricing+%26+availability). I initially went to Precious Audio to install a new head unit and back seat entertainment system for my 2006 Range Rover Sport. I wasn't going to push forward on the entertainment system because, it wasn't what I was looking for. Later he advised that the system he sold me had all the newer streaming apps such as Disney+, feature to connect the phone, and head unit to stream the same visuals. Didn't happen. In fact, it was a lot of back and forth because, my purchase was more so treated as a DIY project and not so much that there was experience that they knew exactly what they were doing and how to do it. Which would've been fine if they had stated that initially. I spent a great deal of money for them to work a project they clearly haven't done before. Also, this isn't a shade statement to the installers that do the work who are amazing. This is all directed to the people who run the place. In a 2006 Range Rover Sport the screen dash unit shows the stock feature such as AWD functionality, modes, etc. When my aftermarket purchased from precision/street beat head unit was installed, that screen no longer worked. I asked them what happened and why isn't it on? We went down a tremendous RABBIT HOLE that only took time and money. Nor did they fix the screen for free. That also came at a cost which I disagree with because, it was their guarantee to get everything functioning as normal with the addition of the new head units functionality as well. So just a heads up, their prices are marked up to the highest possible. I guarantee a majority of their products can be found at other businesses for a cheaper cost. SO DO YOUR HOMEWORK FIRST. You're not getting deals here, I promise you that. I was given an initial set up which days later ended up going out. An error would pop up on the screen that said "CAUTION! AMP OVERLOAD." Then he advised me getting a higher model head unit, which of course I had to pay for. In addition, to get my top screen working they asked for the stock head unit (what if it got tossed out?) and apparently had to buy a part that costed hundreds of dollars which I never saw the receipt for, FYI. With all this back and forth, I asked if a discount can be given. For context, I started this project in mid year 2024. So I really did my part to stick it out with them and try to have it work. Especially because this project cost about 4-6k. I pointed out how JL Audio sells the same amp they sold me at a cheaper cost. I showed them how Pioneer has the same deck they sold me at a cheaper cost. And Mo stated they didn't get the "go ahead" from the business to sell at those prices. Really? You're a business who bought the product already. What permissions do you need? Fast forward to present day. The backseat entertainment still doesn't have Disney+. At first they stated that they just needed me to stop by to get it fixed. When I called to set up a meet that turned into, "We have to send the hardware back." for an update. Come on.. How am I going to be without a vehicle, yet again? There's way more pressing things in life to address than to be taken down a rabbit hole with individuals who DO NOT have integrity. I couldn't even get a price match on products in which their retailers sold it for. In addition, my current higher model head unit they recommended still BLACKS OUT occasionally. Like I said, what's the point of going back when I stuck it out with them for a long time, invested good money, and gave a great deal of patience and understanding. I'll never trust STREET BEAT or PRECISION AUDIO to do any of my work. I really hope car audio consumers come across this post to watch their back and their pockets. DO NOT COME HERE.

I want to give a big thank you to Jerald and Daniel. They helped me with three of my cars and did…read morean amazing job on all of them. They upgraded my 2013 Lexus ES350 with a new stereo and Apple CarPlay. They also worked on my 2015 Toyota Sienna and installed the DVD player, Pioneer car play, and subwoofer, making sure everything worked smoothly. On my 2018 Lexus RX350, they installed a Kicker 10-inch subwoofer that sounds great. They spent almost three days working carefully on the cars. Their communication was clear, they were professional, patient, and they paid attention to details. Even when there were small adjustments needed that were not their fault, they still helped me fix everything with no complaint. My sound systems now make driving and road trips so much more enjoyable. I really appreciate their hard work and the quality of service they provided. I highly recommend Gerald and Daniel if you are looking for car audio installation or upgrades. Thank you both again for the great work.

Super convenient with them being a mobile company, coming to you along with a reasonable price. If you are looking for audio installation, look no further! I was able to reach out via Yelp and Nelson did his own research about the aftermarket head unit I purchased to confirm they can do the install, which was very helpful. We were able to set-up an appointment within the same week. The technician, Jerold, arrived within the proposed time range and asked for my priorities for the install. Once completed, he reviewed the features with me and showed me how it was programmed to my steering wheel controls. Kudos to him as he was very kind, personable, and professional. He was not only an expert, but you can tell he enjoys what he does. Will definitely reach out to them for any future car audio needs!
