Experienced multiple problems with their CarPlay for my 2019 Lexus. Called to get help and each time I was asked for a video. This is hard to do when the phone is being used by the CarPlay system. They blamed the problems on Apple. Buyer beware. read more

The system is a complete upgrade! Jimmy the installer was excellent, very professional. After a lesson the system is user friendly and if you can work your phone you can work this with ease. I had Unavi install the unit and felt he did a great job. Highly recommend to anybody looking to upgrade ther car system. read more

I've had the Carplay/Android Auto module for my Q50 for a few months now, and it's great! Everything works perfectly, there is no lag (none more than the OEM system anyways), and the sound quality is great. I show off the AA feature on my video, but I've tried Carplay as well and it works flawlessly too. For the DIY-ers, the installation is very similar to other modules on the market. Functionality wise, there's not much to say. If you've used AA/Carplay before, it's just like that. Siri and google assistant work flawlessly as well. The audio output is AUX, which I was a little iffy about at first, but their wiring does a good job at reducing noise, so for me it sounds just as good as Bluetooth. The tiny speaker that goes behind the top screen does not sound good at all, but I personally have never used it intentionally (see cons for more on this). All my audio and calls go through the car speakers, but I do connect my phone via Bluetooth for calls to my car, so maybe that's why. The module allows for this without breaking any of the experience, and you can launch calls this way either using the module or the OEM car system. Overall, I would highly recommend this module over the other stuff out there. I have the very first version of this module, which is touchscreen only. All the OEM functions for the OEM system are preserved, but you can't use the rotary knob or steering wheel controls with AA/Carplay. The new recent module FIXES this. I haven't gotten it yet, but I know people who have, and they say that it works perfectly fine, with both the center console controls and the steering wheel controls. I'll probably upload another video of this once I get mine. Lastly, customer service with UNAVI is top notch. Their US team has been very responsive and helpful with all my questions. When I complained about the lack of physical control usability, they put me in touch with the Korean team directly who have now released a whole new module addressing this within a couple of weeks. Not to mention that they apparently work with Infiniti of Korea, so these products are pretty well tested and tried with Korean consumers. The pros for me over other modules: - It uses the car's OEM hardware for all audio (except for that tiny speaker I talk about above). No need to install some questionable quality microphone or have some random cheap control wheel sticking out of the dash. - It works very seamlessly. I don't have to do any weird boot up or worry about crashes. You just plug in your phone and you're good to go. - Customer service is great! They really seem determined to back up their products. Their headquarters in CA just makes this process so much easier too. - It utilizes the top screen, which is great since it's basically useless in the OEM system. The bottom screen works just like normal and is unaffected. - Overall, it just works like any other OEM AA/Carplay from other cars. There's no weird work-around or anything. Cons: - Every now and then, at startup, the module starts playing music off of the tiny speaker. This is a default when you select your audio source other than AUX while still trying to play music with the module. Twice now, it has played from the tiny speaker even though I set my audio source to AUX. This seems like it's an issue with the car system not switching correctly, but all I've had to do is switch to radio and then back to AUX, which fixes it. I've only had it happen twice and it's just a mild nuisance. read more

Purchased the update module to add Car Play/Android Auto to our 2019 Infiniti QX50. Unfortunately Infiniti didn't add that option until the 2020 model year. This is an update, not a replacement, so it retains the original screen and all original functions (automatic camera views, steering control integration, etc.) and adds Car Play and Android Auto. The installation manual was very thorough, and the biggest challenge for our installer was the car itself, not the Unavi module. The installer also routed the USB cable through the covered center console storage and I added a 90-degree USB adapter (see photos) from Amazon to allow us to close the cover while still leaving the phone cable plugged in. The module uses the iPod input to connect the phone to the stereo system so you retain the original factory options (e.g. satellite, FM, etc.) if you wish to use those. You can even use the original navigation in case you miss the 1990s-era GPS experience. Unfortunately the USB adapter blocks the second USB port, but there is an additional charging port in the large storage compartment. The cover provides a stable place to leave the phone while driving, so I consider it worth the trade-off. It's not a 100% seamless integration (steering console display shows "iPad" and doesn't have track information, reverse camera will give a brief glimpse of the original OEM navigation before switching back to CP/AA), but given that we were able to keep the original equipment and integrations, and that there really isn't any other option, this is an excellent option to add iPhone or Android features to the QX50. read more

I purchased a UNAVi Navigation OEM direct replacement for my Infiniti QX60 and had it installed at "Pro Audio" in Springfield, VA. It works as expected and it was plug-in play. I suggest you go with the professional installation to take advantage of the 3 year warranty vs. do it yourself with 1 year. It looks good and all of your OEM functions continue to work. Give them a try you won't be disappointed. read more

Friendly staff with great communication. I had to get an Apple Car play installed in my 2018 Infiniti Q50. Highly recommended and would get more work done in the future. read more

A few months ago, my daughter bought me a Carplay as a gift. Using a cell phone while driving is danger! It is very convenient to make calls with my voice, reply to texts and watch Waze on the big OEM screen. Customer service in this store is very good read more

The Apple CarPlay UNavi product has been great in my 2015 Audi S5, and exactly what I was looking for! Technical Support is fantastic. They helped me with updating my firmware and pinpointed why my reverse camera wasn't switching off quickly when I went to drive/park- it was the dip switch 7 which needed to be set to On because I don't have a Parking Assist button. read more

I bought the retrofit for a Mercedes c-class. The system works incredible, quickly connects and functions with practically no lag. If you're looking for a retrofit, don't look anywhere else, their product is top-class. One recommendation, before connecting to wireless, take a drive on the wired connection for 20-30 mins, it really helps the system recognize your phone better. Jimmy was my installer at Unavi Tustin and he did a great job. read more

I installed the unavi in my infinity 3 weeks ago. It has truly changed my driving experience. I really like how it is operated on command so it makes the whole experience hands free. Navigating through the apps is very easy. I like that on my infinity I can navigate it through touch screen as opposed to other systems that need a mouse like touchpad in order to navigate and access the apps. The appearance of the screen is esthetically pleasing. I like how I can also use multiple traffic maps and perform zoom calls. Especially now that our world is zoom driven. read more

I had UNAVI install the "Apple CarPlay for Nissan Pathfinder 2017-2020 | Android Auto Update Module" in my 2020 Nissan Pathfinder and it works great. I use Android Auto and it's convenient to access my navigation, music, and podcast apps through the touchscreen display of the car and not have to use my phone screen. Pressing the "back" button on the steering wheel allows you to switch between Android Auto (CarPlay) and all other Nissan screen functions (A/C, Radio, Settings, etc.). The system is seamless, and it doesn't affect the original Nissan touchscreen functions. It is literally an add-on. The sound from android auto is routed to the car speakers by pushing the AUX source button, and it uses the original microphone in the car for calls. UNAVI's customer service is fantastic. Their priority really is making sure the customer is happy, and the equipment functions properly. Pedro and Daniel are terrific. They are very friendly, helpful, and professional. I took it to their shop for the install and was kept up to date during the process. I highly recommend them and couldn't be happier with their product and the level of service they provide. read more

Wish I could give a zero. Company called and asked me to take the picture off and they would send me an email with a $25 gift card. They still have not done that after 15 days... obviously una Navi is lying to you when you buy there product. They will not send you a gift card whether or not you buy their pro read more

Contacted Unavi to find out if they had an Apple carplay unit for my 2017 Mercedes C300, Wow what service, not only did they have a unit but they came out to my home to fit it. Works flawlessly, fully integrated with Existing MB controls in car. Mercedes do not offer this on older models but Unavi came through. I am Very Happy with the overall deal and service - ask for Pedro! read more

Bought UNAVI for Kia Optima hybrid system back in 2015 got it installed by unavi I wanted the best oem posible so I did spend a grand or more for unit and install, was pleased with all functionalities about a week ago the LCD screen went out called unavi told them the problem, my warranty just had expired a month before that's a 3 year warranty btw, Pedro worker installer I had spoken to said they would honor fixing the navigation system since it was just out of warranty very pleased with that, that's what I would expect from a reputable company like unavi took it in Pedro exceptional worker had me out of there in less than two hours he explained why the LCD screen went out even had a quick conversation about cars, I could of bought a cheap unit from downtown LA and had maybe lasted me about a year you get what you pay for, will buy another unit from UNAVI if I buy another Japanese or Korean car I couldn't be more happy with the service read more

Had UNAVI unit installed when purchased a new 2015 Hyundai Sonata. The unit has failed 4x over the last 3 1/2 years. The most recent, the system blew out and the screen is black, with no back up camera working. I contacted Unavi. Pedro, the owner, is now giving me the run around. He keeps stating he needs to talk to Korea and claims it must be a factory issue with Hyundai. It's not a factory issue, as the recent problems developed after the last attempted repair. Even though Pedro is blowing me off, I asked him to just give me a new knob as the silver ring vanished after last repair. When I picked up the car, the knob was glowing bright blue. I thought that was normal, but a few days later my son noticed it was missing the ring just like the knob on the right has. Pedro is now refusing to even replace the knob. Terrible experience with Pedro and Unavi in Santa Ana.i told him just give me a new little knob and I'll leave his store. His answer was, "I'm Going To Call The Police". Since he said that, I'm just gonna sit here and let the cops come drag me out. What horrible service and awful way to treat a customer who spent hundreds of dollars for a working unit. read more

I bought a UNAVI UGD621 for my new car. This is not a review for this installation place but for the product only My car was hit while parked. There is more than enough damage that it should have triggered the event recording. But it didn't. I have tons of videos of my car just parked, no idea what triggered an event recording for those. But when I need it to find out who do this, nothing. Add this unacceptable event with all the other problems this camera has ( downloading videos just stops, software doesn't work with macs, app stops working saying it can't connect when you don't need it to because you're in download view, etc.) and it's a huge rip off to buy and have installed. A dash cam is supposed to save you money in case there is a hit and run. This dash cam just cost me money and is worthless. I emailed the company and they said that since I bought it and had it installed from a third party, that they would take no responsibility  for how the camera works. read more

I read the review by Jeff and i had to write one for Pedro and UNAVI. I have a 2014 Optima LX and had Rob @ UNAVI installed it back in 2014. Rob went above and beyond what i can expect in terms of customer service. He went over every step of the install and did a full demo on the system. I have been very pleased with my system since. I saw they came out with a new system early this year and i had to upgrade! Pedro did the install that time and i have to say that UNAVI hires the best. Pedro was exceptional and very courteous about my questions and concerns. Thank you UNAVI and their team for helping me throughout the years! They have been very supportive! read more

I bought the UNAVI F1 Navigation system for my 2018 QX30. I must say that I am pleasantly that it works seamlessly with the existing Infiniti interface. It is darn near factory and works just as well. A+ for the UNAVI team, sales thru installation. read more
