I think I am gonna make the 'jump' on this one and hope all goes well... if it doesn't, then it will be a hard and more expensive lesson compared to a 550 usd unit (included taxes)...

No, friend...I mean that the price is quite the same (or over) of worldwide brands which offer quality and repair services. All right ..... JVC, Clarion and so on don't offer and run on Android.
If you buy "China"
unbranded, you can understand and accept many failures or malfunctions with all "warranties hopes" as you pay a cheaper product (t21A or 7019) by the worth of 450$.
But paying 912$ UNBRANDED is no trouble about me of dealer margin....
If you wish (IMHO) run Android (the same) with a price of 450/480$ (Eur 368 at door) you can buy it in Hong Kong by Tradesolutions. It is on deep the same product.
On your hands you assume the same risks than paying $912 for an italian fake products.
If you need to return for RMA in Italy (probably) you pay the same as for Hong Kong.....but you paid one as two.
IMHO if I wish Android (to run torque or rooting) better buy is HK, if you wish quality, service, assistance, spare parts the big name as Kenwood or Clarion are the top solution.
"No margin trouble", it's more complex as meaning.
