Weaknesses: NUMEROUS
Summary: VERY DISAPPOINTED IN THIS PRODUCT; IT CAME IN MY 2009 SCION XB; THE SCREEN IS HARD TO READ IN DAYLIGHT; THE TOUCH SCREEN DOES NOT RESPOND WELL; SLOW START UP TIME; DOES NOT PERMIT PHONE CONTACT INFORMATION TO BE LOADED MANUALLY OR VIA SD MEMORY CHIP; LINKS UP WITH LG FUSIC PHONE BUT WILL NOT UPLOAD PHONE BOOK CONTACTS FROM PHONE THEREBY MAKING THE VOICE RECOGNITION USELESS. CANNOT TURN OFF THE VERY IRRITATING BEEPING NOISE HEARD WHEN MAKING STATION CHANGES, VOLUME CHANGES, ETC. THIS IS NOT A PRODUCT TO PURCHASE!!!!

Strengths: Lots of features to play with, excellent graphics, modern design of buttons, color matches the rest of the center console.
Weaknesses: Not the easiest to install.
Summary: This system rocks. I've got it with the XM module. It also offers, navigation, DVD, stereo, equilizer just to name a few.The system had some issues when it first came out, but Pioneer came through with a software upgrade, and now the system is a real blast. The graphics are awesome, I was comparing this system to the Kenwood DNX series and it walks away from Kenwood.The buttons and layout is excellent.The bluetooth phone feature works great and I'm able to make calls easily as well as recieve them.If you're parked somewhere waiting for someone, you can pop a DVD and watch a movie.MSN direct service allows you to find the cheapest gas prices, movie times, traffic and weather.The navigation maps are very good, although I wish they would have contracted with Garmin, but I'm still very satisfied with it, it stops the music and tells you when its time to make a turn.I've also added a BOSS Audio 600 amplified sub to my setup and together, this system just rocks.

Strengths: Good Nav, MSN Direct, XM
Weaknesses: Bluetooth,speech commands, cant bypass unit
Summary: Overall I am very disappointed. I will be returning mine soon. It doesn?t do half of the nice features shown on the videos. I wished they would have actually installed one in a vehicle and tested it before production. Pioneer is not giving a date for any software fixes.
