    Great run down. The CarPlay lag is only on that menu but doesn’t seem to affect apps once opened - so for the majority of use cases you won’t notice as you would have your apps on the first page of the screen- otherwise I agree with this overview

    I’m low key disappointed in the lag in the CarPlay menu. Thank you for taking your time and making this review it was helpful in my head unit decision making.

      Great question, from all the receivers I've tested so far, except the SONY, Pioneer AVH-W4500NEX has the fastest boot time and responsiveness of the CarPlay interface I would rate it 4 out of 5, Alpine iLX-W650 has the best responsiveness on the CarPlay interface (5 out of 5). This SONY unit has the fastest boot time of all the units on the market but sucks on the responsiveness.

      If I had to pick a SONY unit I would pick this one, if I had to pick a different brand I would go with KENWOOD DMX9707S, of course not as simple and clean user interface like SONY but more features. In the end it actually depends what your preferences are, there is no perfect unit out there yet, every each of them have ups and downs. If you looking for simple and clean and don’t really care about Wireless Connectivity stick with SONY, no one can beat their user interface simplicity.
