Dam! I can't decide! The hizpo doesn't have that many user reviews. The joying does. But some people keep saying it crashes. One has a cortex a9 (hizpo) the other has intel x3 (I don't know jack shit about processors, I'm an apple guy). Both headunits look good... both look the same tbh lol.

Hizpo has fitment issues right?

To op: did your car come with a double din screen hu? Or the older one from 2013 with no screen?

From the extensive research that I've done, I've heard that it overheats the hu when you're running a dvr and gps+ music.

It was most likely a Dasaita/Hotaudio unit...they're the only ones who have a guy on XDA AFAIK. Try the MTCD or Android Head Unit areas.

Honestly, now it just comes down to the CPU. Like I said before. One has a cortex a9 and the other has an intel atom x3 (joying).
If anyone knows anything about those 2 processors and could shine some light on them, we'd all greatly appreciate it .

I don't care if I have to pay more, I just want a unit that could multitask a lot of things like music, gps and torque app possibly at the same time. Or mirrorlink with music playing in the background.

My impression from my reading on XDA, which is a lot, is that you'd be hard pressed to tell the difference under normal use. I'd just get whichever one looks/fits the best. Even my old 1GB RAM MTCB unit runs Torque, Google Maps, and XiiaLive or MTCMusic at the same time without any real issues. The newer 2GB RAM units all feature much faster boot and app loading times...for these things the differences in architectures is largely academic to the end user.

One thing to note is that there are no custom ROMs for Intel units, while there are several for RK3188 ones, and at least one for PX5 (as long as the MCU is MTCB/C/D of course).

Rk being this headunit? Or no? (The hizpo)

Oh and I guess the operating system. 5.1 is what most of them have. This hizpo one has 7.1 nougat. (Again; I'm an iOS guy, this stuff is new for me )

Little update, so I contacted the seller about the unit not seeing the obd adapter over Bluetooth. They responded saying they'll speak to the tech and will be sending me an update file. Fingers crossed🤞

On another note I did find this solution for backup cameras: Rear View Reverse Camera for TOYOTA 86 GT FT GT86 FT86 86GT 86FT For Subaru BRZ 2012~2015 CCD night vision backup Parking camera

(from AliExpress Android)
Thought I'd share
