DO NOT BUY THIS HEAD UNIT. I put this in a 2011 Jeep Wrangler. I'm on my second unit and now the rear speakers aren't working. Go to turn on the fader to help debug the issue - no fader controls, no balance controls. Talked to support tonight - they can't find it either. Between all the issues I've had with this thing I've had the dash apart no less than 30 times. So now I own a head unit with no fader, no balance and the rear Kicker speakers won't work in the sound bar, so who's to say it ain't flipping software... Let's see what tech support comes up with this time...

Boss BV800ACP - review

This is an inexpensive and well-featured unit. The sound quality is good, but obviously is dependent upon your speakers. Bluetooth pairing is quick and easy as one might expect, and Apple CarPlay and Android Auto both work flawlessly. The microphone is a bit large, however.. but the cord is suitably long so you can find an out-of-the-way place to put it. All in all, I strongly recommend this unit for people who want good sound but aren't over the top.

Great Unit, Great Price! Great Service from Crutchfield.

Awesome unit, especially for the price. All the features you could want and works flawlessly. Bluetooth connection or Apple CarPlay. Interface seems a little clumsy at first but didn't take long to figure it out. Good power for my Jeep with the top off, paired with Polk DB series speakers in the dash and sound bar. Also added the Kicker Hideaway powered sub and the sound is awesome now. No problems hearing it on the highway now! Crutchfield is awesome with the recommended install gear and instructions. Didn't have to run out to get anything during the install! First time anything has gone that smooth for me. I will never go anywhere else.

The custom harness worked great. I missed a step and called Crutchfield tech support and they walked me through the wiring and figured out what I forgot to connect. Tech support was amazingly helpful.

Very easy to install, does the job I wanted it for. A couple of downsides but that's prob personal preferences but would like a volume control know, would like to change the screen background color on Waze, volume resets to low level every time car is turned off. Other than that, good value for money.

EHHHH

I have a galaxy s10 and can not get "android auto to work on this. I've downloaded all kinds of apps that it say. However when i plug my phone in its "un-supported device". However if I had an iphone it would just work as soon as I plugged it in. But the other thing is that it was disconnecting my phone all this time. I turned of the Auto Connect and it seems to help.

Excellent System!

Very solid headunit, I was expecting some drawbacks at first but Boss really did come through and exceed my expectations. Shipping was quick, and they even threw another coupon in with the order! Took me awhile to install because my factory wiring was confusing, but the labels on the wiring harness to this headunit made it so much easier to install and am very thankful they were labeled.

Radio and help from reps excellent.

Radio is excellent. Wiring diagrams were a little confusing. Cleared up after speaking with rep. PAC unit did not hold wire clips in and had to zip tie them up as previous reviews suggested. Also Boss radio not listed for Pac setting. Again, rep recommended Sony setting and all functions worked perfectly. Steering wheel controls worked too!

Not good

The backup camera displays a huge "CHECK SURROUNDINGS BEFORE BACKING UP" banner that is not possible to turn off or make smaller or anything. This alone is very annoying, since it takes up a portion of the screen that would allow you to see further down the road. The radio doesn't give you an option of saving favorites on the radio home, so if you want to change stations you have to go to the list, scroll up or down and then press on the station you want. They added more steps on something that has been standard on car radios since I don-t even know how long. The FM radio also hisses constantly. The unit takes forever to start, and when it does is sometimes turns off for a couple of seconds (this is a very big issue since most times it happens when I'm using the backup camera).

Great Head Unit

Honestly a refreshing change for my 2005 Toyota Tacoma. Very seamless transition from phone-to-head unit connection either via Apple Play or Bluetooth. The only caveat to my experience is how the head unit processes phone calls/Siri/speech to text volume; whenever I make/receive phone calls, or have Siri read out my messages, the volume drops way below what I set it to while listening to music prior to these actions.

Well Worth It

I've had this installed for a couple weeks now and it is working great. There is only one annoyance I have, but it isn't a show stopper. I would like to setup what starts up when the unit boots up, but as far as I can tell, I can't change it from starting up with the radio on. Also, I noticed that some people had mentioned that the home screen can't be configured. That would be nice, but I am finding that I just ignore the things I never use. Other than that, I am enjoying the Android Auto and other little features that I use often. I don't have a rear or forward cameras, so I don't use those features. I'm sure they work great, like everything else.

This is an easy to install radio. Things to like: intuitive menu selection, attractive, excellent options. Things that frustrate: hard to change volume (it is not a button, and there is no remote), it defaults to a low volume (it is not intuitive how to default to a higher volume. I prefer a high volume and to control with my phone ... since there is no remote. I am glad i purchased this radio, the drawbacks are minor. Thanks to Crutchfield, my install looks professional and, as always, it worked perfect the first time.

Best bang for the buck

Absolutely love this head unit very easy to install and made such a big difference in my car, brought my car a little touch of modern to it and makes the car feel not as old any more.for 250$ this has to be the best unit on the market right now plus it comes with Apple car play didn't realize how much I would like it in a car till I got this. The touch screen on this is very nice and very responsive, it is also very bright during the day and dims down nicely during the night as to not distract the driver over very happy with this head unit and my over all experience shopping with Crutchfield very nice they they give you everything that you need to put this together from plugs and wires to mounting brackets

Great display and many options

Fits great in a 2005 Nissan Frontier. It is a perfect replacement for the manufacture receiver. Highly recommend USB chargers too if you don't have them already installed. I didn't purchase a back up camera but this receiver allows to easily add a backup camera. Has nice hands free feature where you mount your microphone and can make phone calls and text messages with one touch. I haven't tested any of the other hands free features yet.

I am extremely happy with the overall quality and operation of my new stereo but even more satisfied with the technical support that Crutchfield provided for the installation. I had to make several calls at different stages and found them to be very knowledgeable to my specific product and vehicle. I couldn't have completed the installation so easily if it hadn't been for that support so thank you Crutchfield!

Boss headunit: Cost effective and nice to look at

This headunit has pretty much everything I wanted for cheap (bluetooth, android auto, applecar play). You can add a backup camera too. If cost is not an option, there are bigger and better headunits available, but this one works great for what it is.

2014 Toyota Venza with after market backup camera. 1. Aftermarket backup camera took some doing (not plug and play) 2. Radio/USB/Apple CARPLAY All works well (factory USB works as well). 3. Sound Quality is OK, not the best, but not bad as well. (I have upgraded Kenwood speakers, all six of them, in my 2014 V6 Venza) 4. Siri answers to. "Hey Siri" external Mic works well ! 5. Dimmer works well between night and day mode set to automatic. 6. Touch screen is reasonably responsive. See pictures, as to what this unit really looks like in your car.

Good value but limits usefulness of rearview camera

Got this replace my factory unit in my 2013 Volkswagen Passat. Install was fairly easy. I think it looks great and works very well. It is a good value for the features you get. My only complaint is that the unit displays a big "CHECK SURROUNDINGS BEFORE PROCEEDING" at the top of the screen with my backup camera. This stays on and can not be deactivated. (I called the company to check) This takes up a lot of the screen and limits the usefulness of my camera. I think it should at lest go away after a few seconds

Great low cost upgrade

This has been a great upgrade to my 2013 F150 XLT. The package that came with it from Crutchfield made this a very easy install for DIY. The only real complaint I can say is the USB plugs for the Apple/Android connection, and the second one are too short. It required me getting a double extension to allow them to reach the front of the dash. For my truck at least it would also not utilize the built in vehicle microphone for calls. I placed the included microphone right in front of my instrument cluster to the right of the steering wheel. This has worked very well so far.

Great unit with Apple Car Play

The unit was a perfect fit and lived up to my expectations. While I found the same unit at other retailers, I am glad to have purchased it through Crutchfield. The tech sheets and instructions were perfect and extremely valuable when installing the unit. In addition, the free technical support came in handy when my wiring harness differed slightly from those in the instructions. I highly recommend purchasing any unit through Crutchfield.
