Doesn't help that I have big hands...and don't get me started on trying to do anything while wearing gloves. They could have at least made the knob stick out a few inches from the head-unit to give you something to grip, but no.

Same goes with the hard buttons on the left side of the unit. They feel cheap and chintzy when pushed, and half the time I have to push them more than once before they respond. Also, once again, I often miss the hard button while driving and hit a touch-screen button by accident, because whatever neanderthal designed this head-unit decided to put the "soft" buttons on the left side of the screen, right next to the "hard" buttons.

The touch-screen itself is also laggy, and half the "soft" buttons on the screen are also irritatingly small and positioned poorly.

Pioneer used to be a name synonymous with quality, but they should be ashamed to have put their name on such a steaming pile of hot garbage.

I don't think you will have a better time with the Fujitsu-Ten headunit either it feels really cheap and looks like some Chinese knockoff.

Maybe Subaru should have stuck with Kenwood.
