Top Amazon Reviews

🚀 Abunda's Overview

This is our summary and key points to consider based on customer reviews.


The Kenwood CarPlay unit offers superior sound quality, a responsive touchscreen, and a good radio functionality. Most users find it easy to install and appreciate its crisp graphics. However, some users had misunderstood that it supports wireless Apple CarPlay, while it only supports wired connection. There are also complaints about the button design and UI of the product.

Pros

  • 🔊 Excellent sound quality
  • 💨 Speedy and responsive Android Auto load
  • 📱 Crisp graphics
  • 📻 Efficient radio functionality

Cons

  • 🔌Only supports wired Apple CarPlay, not wireless
  • 👆 Button design requires visual selection, which could be distracting while driving
  • 🖥 Outdated user interface
  • 💾 Some units reported to shut off randomly and lose settings

Should I Buy It?

Considering the mixed reviews, one should buy the Kenwood CarPlay unit if they are okay with wired Apple CarPlay and are not too bothered about the button design and UI. The unit's sound quality and responsive touch screen may outweigh its flaws for some users. However, for those looking for a more user-friendly interface and wireless functionality, other options could be a better fit.


  • Meets my specifications ----- (95%) worth of them
I've had no problems. When there are no performance issues, you've made a great purchase. all-in-all, the 13 band E.Q. should be as good as an amplifier. What's the thrill in hearing loud music without refining it with a good EQ. I'd put their EQ in the low to middle sales isle. That said, it's still pretty sharp, just doesn't quite have that crisp, identifying clarity. P.S. believe it or not, I've not found a thing being made for graphic equalization like the KDC-4042 5 band ( been out of production for 25 years). There is also Kenwood 13 band ( I owned one, but like a bone-headed fool, sold it on Ebay.com) and have lived to regret it --- seeing how much they sell for now. P.S. you'll never get a professional installer to put one in. They'll tell you that " they're not compatible". ... show more

  • Good, but not great!
Was looking for a HD radio capable head unit that has some quality features. Didn't want some super cheap junk that I was surely going to be disappointed with. I think I was expecting a little more from the Kenwood brand. This head unit has been a little bit of a letdown to be honest. There is a huge difference in sound quality based on your source your using to play it from. EQ'ing that sound is made worse by the variance in quality across those sources. It has been extremely frustrating trying to dial in the sound on this unit to be tolerable across the radio, bluetooth, carplay sources. Overall its significantly better than 80% of the junk out there on the market but I think I would find a different head unit next time I am in the market. I don't want to throw mud at Kenwood as a whole so this only my opinion based on the DMX709S ... show more

  • Great value for the money 💰
Awesome unit. I used this to replace an Alpine w650. Lots of features and settings. Built in crossover is nice for those not interested in running active crossover unit. The carplay disconnects randomly and I'm not sure why. I guess I might need to update the operating system.. other than the carplay issue, it's an awesome value for the money. If you want to connect a camera to the a/v input, you'll need an adapter. Easy to bypass the park brake bypass. ... show more

  • It is a SCAM. They steal from you. Do not buy!!!!
Do not purchase. You will have a problem. If you have to return your unit, they will send you a replacement for a fee but not refund you for original purchase. Amazon has done nothing about it. Amazon has not stood behind their A to Z Guarantee.
