I purchased this reciever to replace the AX8100 that came installed in my 2024 Entegra Odyssey. The number one issue I had with the 8100 was the inability to see the screen with polarized sunglasses, the screen just appeared solid black. The screen on the 8500 allows the use of polarized sunglasses. Additionally the screen is much clearer, and sharper and shows less glare than the 8100. The audio is also substantially improved over the 8100. Even with the same speakers it sounds amazing. Android Auto works wirelessly connecting automatically. No regrets on this purchase at all. I am very happy with the unit.

Awesome quality on the physical construction. Screen is fantastic. Sound quality is decent. My biggest gripe is that other competitive screens run on a version of android that lets you download apps. Not seeing this one allow that.

I've only had this unit installed for a few days but, wow this thing is great so far! I recently installed a Jense. CAR140MW and it malfunctioned after a month. I returned it and decided to step up to this Sony unit. I am glad I did. What a difference! The sound quality on this unit is superb. One of the most notable differences with this unit compared to the Jensen is it's refinement amd responsiveness. It is lightning quick when selecting on screen buttons or apps. Connects seamlessly to my Samsung phone via wireless android auto. So far so good. Love it!

The screen is basic and very easy to use which is a negative for some but a positive for my aging customers in their RVs. Installed over 15 of them and recommend them over and over with zero complaints. If you are younger and want something complicated then this unit is not for you. If you want that old school on off and volume this is it.
