Pioneer Control App For Mac
Pioneer has joined Alpine as the second electronics maker to release wireless CarPlay systems for aftermarket installation. AVH-W4400NEX Introduced, product listings have since confirmed that Pioneer's latest AVH-W4400NEX and AVIC-W8400NEX receivers are capable of not only wired and wireless Android Auto, but also wired and wireless CarPlay, enabling drivers to connect an iPhone to either receiver via Bluetooth and Wi-Fi. Receivers with wired implementations require connecting an iPhone with a Lightning to USB cable to access CarPlay functionality. The lower-end AVH-W4400NEX features a double-DIN design with a seven-inch resistive touchscreen.

AVH-W8400NEX The $500 price difference between the two receivers largely relates to the type of touchscreen used. Capacitive touchscreens—think of an iPhone—rely on the electrical charge of a finger, and are generally considered to be better than resistive touchscreens, which rely on the physical pressure of a finger or stylus. Both receivers feature CD/DVD drives, AM/FM, HD Radio, SiriusXM compatibility, two rear USB-A ports, SD card readers, and hands-free phone calls and music playback via Bluetooth in standard AppRadio Mode. Alpine released the in June 2017. Its features a seven-inch capacitive touchscreen and is available for a suggested price of $900 in the United States.

Wireless CarPlay is also available in,. Pioneer has also released some wireless CarPlay receivers in Europe, according to the blog. Thanks to MacRumors reader Dean Cobb. The $300 price difference between the two receivers largely relates to the type of touchscreen used. It's actually a $500 difference: $1199 - $699 = $500. That is a HUGE difference. It's really disingenuous to charge an extra $500 just so your customers don't have to use a crappy display technology from 12 years ago.
You can buy an entire 2018 iPad for less than the upcharge for a capacitive display. And no doubt said displays are probably some really awful 640x480 or 720x480 resolution. They don't even mention the display resolution so I imagine the worst, otherwise they would list it, and in the past displays on these receivers have been pretty awful. I would buy a separate model for $599: * Remove the DVD/CD player * Remove the motor from the 'motorized' touch screen * Remove the satellite radio stuff * Remove the hardware buttons * Capacitive touchscreen Customers buying a modern system like this don't need all that legacy garbage.
They want to route their phone through their car and use it as the hub for all data connections and streaming. I think even $599 is kinda overpriced for something that is basically just a big display for your phone but I get it, you guys suck and want to milk people who have older cars. But you don't have to be a jerk and ship a product in 2018 that uses a resistive display. That's just customer hostile. I think I'm about done with waiting for a CarPlay implementation that doesn't suck. I seriously just want to buy a 2018 iPad and mount that in the middle of my dash.
I'm not salty or anythinghah. Capacitive touchscreens--think of an iPhone--rely on the electrical charge of a finger, and are generally considered to be better than resistive touchscreens, which rely on the physical pressure of a finger or stylus. I understand the appeal of a capacitive touchscreen, but there is a glare issue. One of the Pioneer head units I have is impossible to see when the sun is coming into the car from certain angles. Many resistive touchscreens have a matted screen that doesn't reflect like the capacitive ones. I would think OLED screens would be perfect for cars, and at the prices they're charging for these things it doesn't see unreasonable either. One of the main things I hate about in-car screens is how bright they are at night.
