The 6.75" capacitive display gives you pinch-to-zoom command over maps, and you'll be able to glimpse album artwork with unparalleled clarity, no matter the angle.

Review: A nice unit, once you update the firmware. - A nice unit, once you update the firmware. Updating the firmware is not hard, Kenwood has an easy to understand procedure for doing so. You'll just need a USB stick to accomplish this. Takes about 15 minutes. This is my third Kenwood Excelon unit in my 2005 Mustang GT convertible. (I would buy a new Mustang but you cannot turn off the lights while driving.) Anyway, the unit does just about everything. With the initial firmware it came with the unit I had some troubles with Apple CarPlay. After the firmware update things are working much better. The navigation is done by Garmin which I like. However, bear in mind that after the unit is three or four years old new updates may not be available. A wonderful safety improvement on the newer navigation systems is that it does not force you to stop the car in order to enter an address. When I have a passenger they can type in the address for me. Of course, when driving alone I always pull over and stop. Primitive navigation systems will require the vehicle to be stop even when there's a passenger in the car. This is dangerous because it requires additional unnecessary, and maneuvering. I miss the days when people could comment on reviews, I learned so much by people commenting on my reviews, it would often allow me to make updates or corrections. Sorry. Review: Works great. Love the map. Just slow to boot up - Sounds so much better after installing this in my truck. Love it! ## Features - Apple CarPlay is a safer way to use your iPhone in the car.
