Dasaita Perfect Universal Octa-Core Android 8 Head Unit Review

0:00Hey, what's up guys John when here and there's a lot talk about this.

0:04And I'm gonna do it's been growing from a beta dual core likes state to now

0:10Now in 2018 a very refined octa core beast.

0:14So why is this unit have been getting so much hype and for starters this unit is rocking

0:20rocking an octa core CPU so it's quick and snappy.

0:25Four gigs of RAM they upgraded the audio processing to a 50 watt TDA 7 850 and other features

0:33that most hand-dread head units have been rocking already such as the Wifi,

0:37Bluetooth, the DVD, the DVD, the CD, and again of course the HD display. Now that

0:43overkill when it comes to a car head unit. But it works so well from

0:50for translating from a smartphone

0:52into a car head unit tech. I say it translates well because this the experience is what

0:58what you can expect in 2018. Now other units from Pioneer, Kenwood, Al-Pine they're great

1:00Now other units from Pioneer

1:03Kenwood Alpine

1:06They're great companies don't get me wrong it's just their design is a little bit dated

1:12Kind of old. They kind of rehash things. I'm sure they have great audio and they do I at least I own one

1:20A few actually, but this not hold the whole point of this head unit

1:25All this features again the Wi-Fi Bluetooth GPS and so forth. It all costs around $500

1:37is it worth it compared to its counterparts? Let's see. it.

1:47So why are people so interested in this head unit? Well, by designing, it's hitting all those

1:51things in such a cost-effective package. The GPS, the sound quality, the display, the design,

1:58and so forth. Starting out, this head unit jams a lot of features found in smartphones.

2:02and because it's really tailored with that kind of high end spec spec

2:07it tri-t of a 10 inch display IPS which gives it some great viewing angles

2:17and on top of that the colors are very they pop it's quite impressive you know you can tell by

2:25when i when I move to the camera the uh the viewing angles are the colors don't shift or anything

2:31anything that's really a nice do that to your you know pioneer next 4200

2:37and they're going to be running through some issues especially because the resolution on that

2:42isn't even HD. Now styling I really like. It's simplistic, minimal and look at that.

2:51It's just a clean set up overall with nice chamfered edges. A little silver border

2:58right here to just kind of top it off. You really don't have to worry about

3:01, you really don't have to worry about anything with it clashing

3:04There with the interior too much and and it actually fits this interior very well

3:09And it's the great thing about this is even though it's a universal head unit. It actually fits into it will

3:17Fits into this car very nicely now

3:20There's other Android head units where if you want to get a smaller screen like a seven

3:24Inch that will fit really snug into here, but with this you can it's an absolute beast

3:30Check out those vents

3:32It does block it and now you cans adjust this thing by

3:35Tilting it and things like that and you can kind of shift it forward or back

3:39Of course there is a it's a universal double din so you can adjust how

3:44The way you want it

3:46Now with the screen this big

3:48It just reminds me of the Tesla model 3 model s and other really more modern dark day cars

3:56So if you're looking for something that really revamps your interior, let's say if you have an older car

4:01Maybe from 2013 14 or even in this case my cars of 2015 if you want to get that modern interface check this out

4:09now, because

4:11This is a universal head unit it does have some tradeoffs now when you look back here

4:17Let me see if I can pull the screen back

4:20It is plastics it's a not the very nice quality plastic that you expect from more of a higher

4:28And like smartphone or anything, but it looks pretty nice on the outer edge. It's just on the inside

4:32it looks pretty nice of the outer edge it's just on the inside

4:36There's the mechanisms for the pegs and so forth.

4:39Now, would youin you ever be behind like inside your cluster or looking in that angle?

4:46Of course not. You'll be more like right here and you're never going to be noticing that.

4:50But if you do creep around here and get it from this angle and the stuff like that, you do start seeing some gaps.

4:57Now that is a bad thing but you have to understand that there are some certain trade-offs with having a universal head unit.

5:00But you have to understand that there are some certain tradeoffs with having a universal head unit

5:11Cars it has that adjustability in things like with hags and stuff. You're just gonna be run into that

5:19We're talking about

5:21Features and so forth. Now this unit. Does come with two USBs that plug into the rear

5:27So you can have two in your glovebox and also has an extra one that you can hook to your

5:32let's say center console if your car supports a, which I use a lot.

5:35So it has a nice clean setup.

5:37So I have my USBs tucked into the glove box.

5:39and I still retain my USB.

5:42Now a lot of people are asking about

5:43what about your backup camera

5:46and your steering wheel controls.

5:49Those also can be retained.

5:51So if you if you want USBs for your glove box

5:55you know under... here you'll still be able to keep them. Stereo controls? Not a

6:02problem. It works and you can macro to

6:05those keys any way you want. So if you want this to be a HOME button or this

6:10to be a TALK button or this to be volume up, even though it's called mode, you

6:14can make it. So you can choose any macro you want, which is nice. You,

6:20Alright, so let's talk about specs next.

6:25So the specs

6:26on this machine is actually very good.

6:29It's rocking the latest Android version 8,0 Oreo OS with a lot of room.

6:43Installed for storage, which is you can expand it to because it has two micro SD slots on top of that

6:50It has three USBs. So if you wanted to put an external hard drive or any like that

6:54Remember we're talking about the USBs right there. You can put an external hard drive.

6:58And expand that kind of

7:04times the micro SD's already 32 gigs built-in and then of course flash drive

7:09external hard drives support as well the processor

7:13processor is a PX5 this is an octa core and pretty much the go-to it's

7:19Let me tell you, let me

7:24tell you it's snappy. Now very snappy. I've been using this for a while and I

7:33This is slow where they're using Android Auto or Apple CarPlay things go without a hitch

7:40Let me see if

7:42Maybe plug into Android Auto for you guys real quick. So I have an Android phone right here. This is a Samsung Note 8 and

7:53You have Android Apple Apple Android you have Android Auto and Apple CarPlay with this?

7:59Simply plug in your you and run the app and now I can see

8:05Pretty much what I have on Android Auto

8:08So this is really nice if you like Android. Auto and it's really nice because it has GPS built-in and all that jazz

8:16Right baked into the screen now the screen gets it very bright of course. So check the

8:21So check that out. Look how smooth that is. It's quick it's very smooth, smooth

8:28You're not gonna be running any issues when it comes to performance with this

8:32OctaCore of Beasts. Now, is it faster than my Note 8? Probably not, but the Note 8 is

8:40doing a lot more, more things when it comes to, you know, data, cellular and, and all that

8:45this doesn't really have to worry about that, so it does a great, great job

8:47it also works with Apple CarPlay and it works just as great.

8:54There's an adapter you have to buy for both so I'll link right here below. You guys want to buy the adapter. Is it worth it?

9:01I mean, do you want carplay and Android Auto?

9:03It's not a needed feature, but it's definitely nice that you have options. The theme is really nice.

9:08And things that can really tailor to a car experience like having a really big bar right here specifically, specifically tailored

9:17for a now playing. In this case, I was watching the new iPhone reveal.

9:21And then you also have miles per hour, and you can change this to other

9:25Parameters to like a clock or whatever you want. Like that's pretty sweet, isn't it?

9:30Now what about. What about boot up speeds right guys?

9:34Let me tell you that the boot up speed on this on these newer Android head units. It's been getting better and better

9:42. Pretty. Pretty much when you, do have it off

9:45and now it puts into a sleep mode. So if you don't if you drive your every day

9:51you're gonna have this kind of boot speed. So I'm gonna turn the car on.

9:55Boom. It boots up. It's that fast. I haven't drove my car in a few days,

10:01I haven't drove my car in a few days two days and it still boots up very fast now in the options

10:09You can put you're

10:11Put your sleep timer to whatever you like

10:14Minds on autos take sleep timer and it's been a really good treat. I really do that

10:19I don't have to wait for it's a cold boot certain systems like

10:24Even the OEM one takes a while to get up running this one

10:28It's so fast especially because the processor is definitely faster than any

10:31it's so fast especially because the processor is definitely faster than any head unit brand like the OEM ones from Subaru.

10:37I can give you a factor that those things are slow.

10:40But let's say if you do cold-blood it,

10:42which is basically a cold boot is when you have,

10:45let's say you unplug the battery,

10:47and then you plug the battery.

10:49I get boot times about 13 seconds,

10:51which is actually very respectable.

10:53Another controversial topic now, it's probably sound.

11:01What these units right here? They actually have an upgraded sound. It's called the it's 50 watt TDA

11:07750s every generation I of that they've been putting better and better internal amps

11:13Now I also have an extra amp into my system check it out

11:18So I, already have some really nice speakers on this and it is compatible with my aftermarket or not aftermarket

11:25But my OEM factory installed amp

11:29Wow, that's bright another thing because we're on the topic of bright if you have your cars headlights on

11:30Another thing because we're on the topic of bright,

11:33if you have your car's headlights on,

11:35it does have dimming capability.

11:37So watch happens when I turn on my head car headlights.

11:41So the whole screen dimmed right there

11:43and it

12:03to be honest when I first got this head unit I was ready not to be impressed by

12:10it but I really like it more than I thought I would believe the hype I

12:15I feel like Dicida struck a good balance between what the customer wants and the value and this

12:24is one of my favorite head-units of this year.

12:28Let me know if you guys have any questions below.

12:30Thank you guys for watching and if you guys once

12:32Want to let's see something specifically hit me up in the comments. I'll go check it out

12:38Peace out guys
