I have 3 issues with researching for a Head Unit and I'm struggling to find much info. Hoping some of you might know.
1. Full onscreen Android integration. I would like to be able to hook up my Galaxy S3 to the screen and control my phone from the unit.
Noticed the apps are limited and not many head units support it
Almost seems like manufactures don't want to apply this because they know it will make their costly option obsolete. GPS and Bluetooth options run $100+ for EACH on these units (little ridicules if you ask me).
Possible solution: This is part solution (really). Micro USB> HDMI cable for Galaxy S connected to HDMI > Analog converter > head unit for sound and video onscreen. No touchscreen option here so I would have to continue to control everything thru the phone. It will allow phone content to be shown on monitors though (netflix etc).
2. Dual Zone. I need to be able to control front output and Rear (for movies) seperately. Noticed VERY few units have this and there is very little info about limitation of it. Can I put ANY source on Either Rear and Front or does it limit me?
3. There is absolutely 0 HD support on new Head units. Forget about 720/1080p....From head unit perspective and monitor. Also noticed lack of quality overhead monitor (all no brand models).
Hope that's on the horizon. Weird that it hasn't really been implemented yet....
TIA
