So today I'm taking a look at this smart navigation system. I'm going to go ahead and of course install it right here on my car
0:05
I'm excited about it just because now I can go ahead and just use Apple CarPlay on my phone because I don't have that right now
0:12
And I was sent this for the purpose of this video but I'll give my honest opinion and first impressions of it
0:17
So the first thing I see over here is going to be this foam and right below it, it's going to be an instruction booklet on how to actually go ahead and use it
0:26
This is the owner's manual. And then right in here, this is where the system is going to be itself
0:35
Kind of looks like a tablet just from this end. This is how big it is
0:40
And in comparison to my phone, of course, it's going to go ahead and be slightly bigger as well as the screen
0:47
And then at the bottom over here, I just see three capacitive touch buttons
0:51
This is probably the home screen and volume up, volume down. and then on the left side over here for the microphone now on the back side there's going
1:00
to be these attachments over here so this is probably going to go ahead and be so I can
1:04
actually put it on over here now on the sides of it there's nothing really over here except these
1:10
two little grooves but on the other side there's going to be a lot more things at the bottom this
1:17
is going to be where the power supply goes followed by the micro sd card if you want to put one in the USB which is nice so I can charge my phone there A cam in cable and then an aux and audio cable up here
1:31
Other stuff that comes in the box is going to be this piece over here
1:37
right here in the middle. This is the mute button, then the skip, and then pick up, hang up
1:44
and then there's going to be the style that turns clockwise and counterclockwise as well
1:48
Alright, so next thing that comes in the box is going to be this thing over here
1:53
It's like a circular disc. I don't know exactly what part this is for, but I'll put this away for now
2:00
Here is going to be the actual power supply. So actually, this is pretty cool
2:05
This is nice just because not only is this a quarter of the supply, but on the backside, it has two outlets, four USB
2:11
So on top of it, I can charge two additional things as well too. And then here's going to be an aux cable
2:17
and then here's going to be another cable this is going to be the little lip that goes on top of the
2:24
actual system itself and here what holds it all together is going to be this part over here to
2:30
actually stick onto the dashboard or the windshield of course this does go ahead and just rotate
2:36
freely and I can just go ahead and lock it into place nice and tight and then this arm also goes
2:42
ahead and extends. And then this can also move freely Yeah just like that But yeah that everything that comes in the box so let me go ahead and uh install this now all right so i end up sticking this on over here i took out that
2:57
little plastic bit stuck it on here and then just close this up and now it turns out that that little
3:03
plate that i was talking about earlier this is only used for if i want to stick it on my dashboard
3:09
So this is really just to give this part just a flat surface to stick on so I don't need that
3:15
This cable is going to go ahead and be to attach it for my backup camera. I'm not going to do that now
3:20
This seems like it's a lot Let me alright
3:32
So I ended up putting the suction cup on my windshield instead of the dashboard
3:36
I'm just because this gave me a better view and turns out that this little plate
3:41
Goes on the dashboard only if I want to go ahead and suction it cup it over here
3:46
Our reason being is because this gives it a flat surface, so I don't need this right now
3:51
And this is just gonna go ahead and be for the backup camera, but I'm not gonna use it now either
3:56
So now that that's all good the way to go ahead and touch it and just place it right over here
4:00
I just like that and then just push it down down and then there, clicks on the place
4:05
and I can face it towards me and then here. Now the only thing missing would be this part here Turns out this does just go up on top and this is just going to be a shade for it And there I just ended up taking it off just so I can put it in more properly All right
4:21
and there, now everything's connected. I end up putting the wire over here. I end up putting the
4:25
ox cord as well here. So now this is attached right here and then right here. So now I can go
4:31
ahead and turn on the car and I see the screen light up over here with this red
4:39
car over here let me give it a few seconds and now it's starting up it says
4:44
zero percent and then there now it's all good and all right so I turned on
4:52
Bluetooth and right over here I see accessory car BT 0 2 1 1 3 3 so I'll
4:58
click that gives me a code for pair i'll pair it i'll allow to sync my contacts use carplay with
5:04
carbt use carplay all right there now it's connected all right so here so i just went
5:08
ahead and zoomed out a little bit and here's what it looks like so it does go ahead and work
5:13
i'm a little bit low on connection so i'm not sure exactly how well this is going to load
5:18
but that's good this is all working over here just like apple carplay and yeah this is going to be a lot more convenient to use this way i don't have to like put my phone
5:27
over here anymore and also I just end up getting rid of my other phone holder that I had here
5:33
just to use this instead but anyway yeah that's a quick overview of the smart navigation system
