this is the best i could find. i have a 5 second video clip but the forum here won't let me upload it.
This is a facelift dashboard. I'm worried that the 12.3 is going to stick into the cluster.
Do you want to post your 5 second video on YouTube and then provide a link?

it's not my video actually, i just recorded the 5 second video clip from AliBaha website so to avoid any possible legality issues, i would rather not post on YouTube
they both have anti-glare but the anti-glare on 10.25" looks better.
So when they say carplay does that mean wireless android auto as well? I dislike how people use wrong terminology interchangeably.
And do they support playing music via bluetooth?

And you can split the screen per their website! Now I wonder what the cost of the 12 inch screen would be?

mine was $650 for the 4gb ram/64 gb rom Qualcomm snapdragon cpu not including delivery, that you'll have to calculate with them. it starts from $35 and up for the US for example.

CarPlay is wireless for ios and usb for android auto on all units i've seen out of china and this unit should be no exception, however MirrorLink function allows car audio/video receiver to display (mirror) the screen of newer ios and android smart phones and interact with apps installed on the phons wirelessly including music but touch commands must come from smart phones on MirrorLink, unlike CarPlay and android auto one can input touch commands directly on car screen when connected but only on some apps not all. this limitation is from ios and android not the unit.

You'll have to verify this option with the seller "DMP" to be certain, i didn't look into this option for my w212 because it wasn't originally installed on my mb nor do i need it, i'm ok with the reverse cam option. I know i have this option for example on all my other android units, i.e i have them on my 997 Porsche 911 Carrera, Hummer H2, and Mitsubishi Pajero players hence, i assume this new unit will be no different.
VERY NICE. I INSTALLED THE 2 USB W/ MUSIC & VIDEOS. TV TUNER WORKS GREAT ALONG WITH REAR VIEW. USE UR BLUETOOTH OR HOT SPOT TO DOWNLOAD APPS, WALLPAPERS & NETFLIX. ANDROID VERY EASY TO USE. BUY THE BYPASS MODULE TO MAKE IT WORK. OR GO TO ANDROID SETTINGS.

Reason: MORE INFO
With the units that have built in CarPlay, is this a wireless CarPlay? Does it seem reliable ?
Now suddenly there are too many options with all different features.
4 core, 8 core, 2 Gigs RAM, 4 Gigs, all combinations and permutations of these. Android 7.1, 8.1, 9, 10.
The two resolutions, then one USB, two.
i got the simple less expensive 1 quadcore, 1gig. $57 ebay. It has all features & fast for me. I only bought it because it was a perfect fit & kinda looks stock. i use bluetooth or usb for music/videos downloaded. Perfect fit

So, I found out that while what you said is true, there is more to the truth.
So while, as you said, most or all units from China come with CarPlay installed and working with no external adapter included, the vendors are selling an activation external USB adapter.
This USB adapter (for wireless CarPlay), is used one time to activate your phone for CarPlay, then not used anymore probably till the next phone which you want to use.
This is an option (this wireless CarPlay activation accessory), that vendors sell for $75 extra.
The price that you post up top, does it include the wireless CarPlay phone activation adapter?

What was the code to get to the factory settings? I have no sound and my NTG screen is not recognizing the signal. I assume I need to check some boxes in the settings dept. Once I can get to the settings I think everything should work fine.
I have asked the seller for the codes also, they are still asleep in that part of the world. Just hoping to get it quicker, otherwise I will finish tomorrow.
Thanks for reply.
Do you know how? Link?
I really appreciate.
You should try and get the firmware from the seller of your screen first -- how old is your unit? Should hopefully be under warranty still (to a degree, or they're just good people that will send you the files for your specific rez etc.)
The sound worked from the regular radio, but not from the screens apps, music, etc. So I had to turn on the aux in the engineering mode. Now the sound does not work from any source, and the radio no longer sees my Sirius radio.
i am a highly educated person and am very good at trouble shooting problems. But this is a POS, period.
if you can’t provide clear step by step instructions for each product, then it is a joke. I will chalk it up as my mistake for purchasing it,

Never ever did I have one that could not make it work. You just didnt do it right when installning it and setting it up or the instructions you got from you seller was not good enough, Its FAR from POS!!
