Works well and feels "OEM"
Worked great on my 2017 RX350. The unit was relatively easy to install if you are confident in removing car panel pieces. Manual was missing a few bits of installation information but the seller (ninetom) was quick to respond to help with the installation. After a long trip with it and a few weeks of use, here are some things that I have learned about the unit.- Installation for my car with the remote touch joystick, OEM nav, and 12.3in screen required use of an extra cable that was in the box but not in the manual. The cable had to be plugged into the joystick in order to prevent the joystick from "clicking" on both the OEM screen and the CarPlay screen at once. Do not plug in the cable that draws extra power from the screen.- Movement on the CarPlay screen is limited to "left/right" and "page up/page down". This isn't the same navigation that you'd expect as on the OEM screen, so it takes a bit to get use to but it works relatively well once you understand it. I think it might be marginally better than the original system since you don't have to be as precise with the movements, but typing on it is a chore.- In order to get the steering wheel controls to work, you need to enable "no swap" on the steering wheel controls option in the menus.- I'm no audiophile but the audio sounds relatively okay on my Mark Levinson system out of the box and the display looks relatively crisp for a wireless connection. A little compression can be seen if you are looking closely but it is not an issue while driving. Overall it looks really nice on the large display.- Wireless CarPlay connects pretty quickly and reliably for my iPhone 12 mini on iOS 16.1.1.

Works Amazing
2019 RX350- works like a charm. Looks OEM.With music there is a small delay but you only notice it after skipping songs.UPDATE: 1 month later I’m having issues with the device not turning on sometimes. Sometimes it connects the audio sometimes it doesn’t. It’s a hit and miss and it’s becoming increasingly frustrating.

Pleasantly surprised
I was skeptical, but this product works great. Install isn’t bad at all, great instructions and video. The setup took a little time, but a lot of that had to do with the terrible touchpad in this Lexus. But I followed the instructions exactly, and it works great!

Lexus GS 350
The media could not be loaded. This works great! Still a more affordable option compared to beat sonic or Grom Vline. Plug and play super easy. Also my flaw is that it take about 10 seconds before everything gets booted up also Audio Quality did degrade a bit depending on song.

Not good
Installation wasn’t bad but could not get it to work correctly. It kept freezing up, gliching and flickering. I doesn’t let you go back to the oEM screen easily. I tried all the different configurations and finally gave up and returned it. I spent the extra $200 to get a known brand and it works perfect.

Works great if you install it correctly
Installation is not easy at all but the product works great and is half the price of similar items on the market. The device is quick and works really well. But have to emphasize how tough it is to install and that you have to pay attention to the instructions closely or your unit won’t function properly, had to spend 2 hours troubleshooting it.

Works well at first
Installed this in my 2017 Lx570. Waited a couple months to see how long terms will work. Works great for the first month. Now when CarPlay is connected the screen randomly blacks out and has issues connecting more often than I can tolerate now. This became product became disappointing after long term usage.

Works great
Works great so far and I've had it for almost a week now. Connects about 10 sec after starting upI didn't bother connecting the audio for carplay because I can play music via Bluetooth and have the carplay on at the same time and it looks just like I'm playing from my carplay.Initial setup was a little confusing but after a little bit I have it figured outI put the decoder in the glovebox of my GS-F but you can put it in between the radio and glovebox as well
