    I have seen pictures circulating of these generic Chinese Android head units that also support Apple CarPlay. However, I was curious, just how good are these units? Are they reliable? Does the system ever get laggy with time? Do these units receive OS updates?

    Another question I had is with my 2013 Prius, I am able to see basic battery levels and MPGs, do these units have some sort of capabilty to do so (I will automatically assume no, but not sure if this is possible?).

    I am leaning towards installing this unit mainly because of how "clean" and similar it looks to the factory unit on the Gen3 Prius. Unless, folks recommend other units?
