This time round I have used the blurb from Sony’s Spec Sheet, the reason for this is that I don’t think I could of said it any better!
I have been used this unit for a while in my work/daily car and it is just a gem of a unit, easy to use and I love using the gesture controls. With a quick swipe of the screen I can change songs/albums while not even looking at it!
On a closing note the XAV-64BT must be one of the best priced quality double-din Bluetooth units on the market and this alone makes it a worth while unit to buy in comparison to single-din unit at a similar price range!
