This little beauty
This little beauty is exactly what I needed to update my older car which doesn’t have Bluetooth or anything like that, I can now have all the benefits of the technology that seemed impossible. Amazingly easy to use, nice clear screen and great price!

Thank you for your lovely review Tracey we are so glad the device has brought all the features you needed and that you are happy with it
Customer service no show
I did not need the tablet in the end. I asked to return of which I had to pay for myself (£8) then the email says they take £10 off for return admin etc. so already £18 down but I haven’t even got my refund after 2 weeks. I’ve emailed many times but nothing, absolutely nothing. I would avoid totally!

Really sorry about this, Gareth — we’ll get your refund sorted right away. Thanks for your patience!
Great product - excellent value for money
Great product. Easy to install and simple to set up and use. Excellent value for money and I bought the cable clips which make it easy with the two cables (power and Aux). I would definitely recommend this. Bought as a birthday gift for my daughter’s first car. Her response was she can finally listen to Spotify :-)

Game changer for the car !

Kept well informed with both tracking numbers at all times, Item works well and set up was easy. Good value for money not like my older unit which cost 6 times more and lasted 3 yrs. Only down side it took longer to deliver than stated but worth the wait.

Very difficult to navigate
Very difficult to navigate, not very responsive. SD card does not lock in properly and drops out when going over bumps. Not like it is shown on TV

Campervan
This makes a perfect addition to our campervan. Parking is much easier and obviously the sat-nav is very helpful.

My apologies for not writing this…
My apologies for not writing this review sooner. I love this media centre. I had CarPlay in a new van that went with my job, and decided I needed something similar for my 11 year old Juke. The kit I bought comes with front and rear dashcam. The rear dashcam is proving to be particularly effective with keeping tailgaters at bay. Very easy to install, if I can set it all up then anyone can. Well done to whoever made this and put it on the market. I’d give more than 5 stars if I could.

SmartDash 2025
Prompt delivery of approx. 3 days even though the item is shipped from China.
Very pleased with SmartDash 2025 - it is easy and quick to install and the dash cams are fantastic. The rear camera, again, is easy to install after a little time spent routing the cable appropriately.
I was so pleased with my purchase that have I bought another one for our second car.

Thank you so much for your review we are delighted you are pleased with the SmartDash 2025 and grateful for your continued support
Excellent bit of kit
Excellent bit of kit. Simple, relies on the phone so won’t age as quickly as built in sat-nav’s. Also, easy to install and extremely good clarity. Did I want an extra cable in the car, no. Was I surprised at the quality for the price, yes.

Product didn't work for me
Product didn't work for me. Pathetic instructions. Ridiculous instructional video. I've never seen anything so amateurish. No online support. I returned the item a week ago STILL NO REFUND
