I'm specifically looking for a unit that is responsive and is more user friendly then the usual offerings.
Most Kenwoods, Pioneers and the likes are pretty horrible when it comes to menu layout en responsiveness.

I went through quite a few units in the years and have yet to find something that I really like. I still have a Kenwood unit in one of my cars bit it is seriously laggy and I hate the user-friendliness. The wife doesn't mind so I am not planning on replacing it anytime soon. I am sure it is feature rich but I can't say I use most of the features.

I just want a simple and solid no nonsense head unit that just works and is nicely integrated. That is why I am pretty keen on trying out Car Play. But I will need a backup 'off line' navigation when traveling across the border. Data rates are capped here, cell coverage is limited at best and the cost is killing me already and I refuse to roam.

One of the things I liked about this car is the possibility to upgrade the head unit. But I have yet to find one that fits the bill without costing me an arm and a leg.

Looking at this video, it seems pretty responsive.
