Just what I was looking for
Searched all over for a decent affordable radio for handsfree calling and I had to have the TFT display for listening to USB audiobooks on the road. But I didn't want a flip-out as these tend to attract the attention of bored police, especially at night.
This was a winner on all three counts.
The external plug-in mic is an absolute must for bluetooth phone use in the car, the new built-in mics suck and callers will complain they can't hear you. Believe me I know first hand. Interface is simple and handy, sound is as good as any other for the price I can't say what else I could want.
Also tried comparative DUAL and Boss models in this price rage w/3" TFT screen, as well as a chinese MP3 reciever. Definitely beat them all, and the biggest reason was the external mic.
You can use what's included, but I bought an 3.5" flush mount AUX port & ran wire behind the dash to mic plug in radio (about $9 on Ebay) and have a little 3.5" aux microphone I leave plugged into the dash (got at Best Buy) for phone calls, works like a charm. A
