I had high hopes for this unit, but I will tell you up front, I have sent it back. First I'll tell you why I purchased it, and then what didn't work well.I had to replace the existing failed in dash double din unit on my wife's SUV that had, among other functions: Radio, CD, DVD, iPod interface, Nav and Bluetooth phone interface. The requirements for the new unit as dictated by my wife, in order of importance were: 1. Bluetooth, 2.Nav, 3. Radio. If it couldn't do those three things, forget it. If it could, everything else was gravy.I scoured the web and stores for many hours. From all the units that met my wife's requirements, I picked out the Pyle PLDD75BG primarily because of the nice big 7 inch screen and reasonable price (compared to Pioneer and Sony at least). This unit is relatively new, and I couldn't find one review (good or bad) on the web. I decided to take a chance and bought it anyway. Due to my experience, I'm writing this review.The installation of the unit was normal, but after that, issues immediately arose. First, on the Nav, there were for some reason, no Points of Interest (POIs) anywhere near my house. For instance, the nearest gas station was 100 miles away. Now I live in the Los Angeles area and believe me, there are lots of gas stations by my house. To make a long story short, I figured out that the POI file on the SD card was missing a file for POIs in Southern California. Apparently, California has so many POIs, that the POI file for California is divided into POI#1 and POI#2. POI#2 has the Southern California POIs and was missing from the SD card for some reason. I Googled and found a place on the web that has "repair" files for Nav systems, downloaded the Cal POI2 file, and this glitch was fixed. I probably could/should have gotten it from the manufacturer, but I'm too impatient to wait for them to figure it out.The next issue that arose, is that unless you are in Nav mode, no screen, including the radio interface, displays the time of day, i.e. the clock. This is crazy. I never seen a unit of this type that didn't display the clock in most modes, and especially the radio mode. There is even a clock adjustment in the settings menu, but no way to display the clock anywhere except in the Nav screens. This drove my wife nuts because her default display is the radio. She only uses the Nav when needed.The last issue (and the straw that broke the camel's back and forced me to return the unit) was the bluetooth. Although we could hear callers fine, the callers could barely hear us over interference and background noise. The best, and barely intelligible sound came with the car parked, engine off, A/C off and windows rolled up. Anything else, and the bluetooth was useless.We called both the seller and Pyle tech support. They thought it might be the phone, but we tried several phones, including a brand new iPhone 4 and Android, which all worked flawlessly on the OEM bluetooth in my Acura TL, but none of which worked well with the Pyle. I think that the difference is that low end models such as this Pyle use a bluetooth "headset" protocol, while more expensive units (including the Pioneer I eventually ended up replacing this unit with) use the bluetooth "Handsfree" protocol. I noticed that all of the test phones reported a "headset" connection with the Pyle and a "Handsfree" connection with the Acura and Pioneer. It also helps to have a separate microphone (which both the Pioneer and my Acura have) that you can locate away from A/C vents and the head unit whose cooling fan generates lots of noise. However, I will say that the failed unit I had hoped to replace the Pyle with, had the same sort of built in microphone and it worked a lot better than this unit, although not as well as the units with a separate microphone. I recommend that if a bluetooth phone interface is important to you, you go with a unit that has a separate microphone.I will say this, I liked the Nav unit a lot. It worked fast and had a good interface. The 7 inch screen was great and had good clarity. The sound on the unit wasn't bad either. I never got around to testing the iPod interface. If you don't need a bluetooth phone connection and don't mind that the clock doesn't display except in Nav mode, this is not a bad unit. But a similar unit without the bluetooth would probably be cheaper, so it probably doesn't make sense to get this unit if you don't want bluetooth.

I have just purchased this unit for the price and most of the features.I mainly purchase it for the Navigation,Bluetooth and the usb for playing music off of thumb drives. Radio and everything else is pretty much standard on most models that have this size of screen.Well first problem I notice that when i finally get my phone to pair with it calls were ok out going and audio is good volume but when i am talking with someone they tell me it like talking to someone in a tin can. Even when as other person had stated in his review sitting still with all closed and nothing else turned on.((((((( WHEN I HAVE AN INCOMING TEXT NOT A CALL THE SCREEN GOES WACKY AND STARTS SCROLLING FROM SIDE TO SIDE CHANGING COLORS. ONLY WAY TO CORRECT THIS IS TURN OFF THEN TURN BACK ON THIS DOESNT HAPPEN EVERYTIME BUT HAVE HAPPEN 4 OUT OF 10 TIMES I RECEIVED A TEXT MESSAGE INSTEAD OF A PHONE CALL ))))))))Well the second problem is a BIGGY one as for me as I dont want to have to look down at the screen to see if I am turning on the correct street.THERE IS NO TTS ( TEXT TO SPEECH ) OF ANY KIND IN ANY LANGUAGE . IT WONT EVEN ANNOUNCE THE # STREETS THE MAPS ARE ALSO 3 YEARS OUT OF DATE.Third problem Well since my 2003 CRV doesn't have a separate clock on the dash I was under the assumption that the clock would be displayed when in stereo mode because the NAVIGATION section has its own clock from the satellite SO NO NEED SET THAT ONE IS AUTOMATIC.The CLOCK has a setting page and you set the time and date all of these setting but it doesn't display anywhere in stereo mode or dvd,cd,usb, no where what so ever ( SO WHY THE HELL DOES IT EVEN HAVE A CLOCK IN IT ????????????????? )I WILL BE RETURNING THIS RIGHT AWAY I AM NOT WASTING ANYTIME ON IT AT THIS POINTVERY DISSAPOINTED
