For Porsche 718 918 911 Boxster Macan Cayman Cayenne Panamera

I have used the 2022 for well over a year and it has been excellent. I was excited to see Roadtop released a upgraded version this year and purchased it without hesitation. Unfortunately, newer doesn't always equate to better.

PROS:
-Sharper resolution
-Faster boot up, runs smooth
-Runs quiet (no fan noise from previous model)
-Has a Bluetooth audio transmitter, EQ settings and screen auto brightness

CONS:
-screen size difference is barely noticeable and the higher resolution can make text harder to read
- wireless connectivity with my phone (Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra) totally unreliable. Went from a 50/50 proposition to being dependent on the USB cord for connecting to panel
-BT Transmitter very sketchy, bounces on and off for minutes before stabilizing. Aux cord is only reliable audio source (that was the case for last year model as well)
- most of the EQ setting made the audio sound worse
- disabled auto brightness as it does not adjust well making it impossible at the worst possible times while driving

When it's all working, it's still one of the best hands-free devices on the market. This version has been a pain to get going consistently where as before, I would just hop in my car and it just worked. I hope Roadtop has a firmware update or some suggestions to fix these issues moving forward. They make a good product but, I feel this was a step in the wrong direction.

Easy to install, it takes about 30 minutes.
It works really well, the only issue is with the “joystick” that is not so perfect with CarPlay but is still usable.

I expected much more from a 250$ unit
My car doesn't have an aux input
So I tried the Bluetooth transmitter. I is skipping audio and people talking to me on calls hear themselves with an echo
All that is ok if I use FM transmitter
But quality is much worst

Because of my navigation system in the 2011 F250 King Ranch, the SYNC system doesn’t work with the Bluetooth connectivity to the unit, however I just used the included AUX cable and plugged the unit into the car system AUX port and turned the output on the Ford to AUX. I then connected my phone to the RoadTop and the wireless CarPlay was connected.

I’m just going to list a bunch of things I like so far!

Everything works flawlessly, I listen to a lot of loud music and the quality is still there, I haven’t messed with the EQ settings, but might one day. All the factory system settings still work and affect the sound. Tapping the small power icon on the main home menu of the device turns the screen off but keeps playing music, which was amazing for driving at night, somewhat of a hidden feature without being labeled.

The screen doesn’t lag at all and boots up fairly quickly. The wireless CarPlay was taking about 15-20 seconds to start playing my music or pull up the map, which wasn’t a noticeably long time. The power cable is long enough for me to feed it around my dash and down below the driver’s cockpit and into the center console, which was a huge bonus being able to completely hide the cable without drilling holes or even removing parts of the dash or console.

To sum everything up, I’m extremely pleased with the functionality of the unit, I wish I could be connected via Bluetooth, but maybe I’m getting better audio with the AUX anyways🤷‍♂️ As you can see in the windshield reflection I’m using the suction cup Mount, I may try to find a much smaller profile solution for this to keep it much cleaner in the future, but other than that I’m completely satisfied and would 100% recommend this to someone who doesn’t have CarPlay, it changes your whole experience, especially on this RoadTop wide screen, it gives an awesome view instead of it being square like the majority of screens.

Wanted to give all the details for the people who need it

Definitely a 10/10

Estoy muy contento con los equipos, realmente la solución que buscaba
