5.0 out of 5 stars Solid Unit, works well for me, May 19, 2011

This review is from: Pioneer AVIC-Z130BT 7" In-Dash Navigation AV Receiver with iPod/iPhone Control, Bluetooth, Pandora (Electronics)
This is the first In Dash double din GPS head unit that I have installed. My first impression is that it works well.

I got the optional Ipod cable (Pioneer CD-IU51V) and it connects to my phone (iPhone 3GS) right away every time. I know others have tried to connect with the provided cable and will see connection problems I have seen none with the extra cable.

Pandora and Aha Radio works great. This is my favorite feature. Thumbs up / down, skip songs from the head unit.

The GPS system seems fast and even finds my house which others in the past haven't. I have had several portable (stand alone) GPS units from Garmin and in my opinion Garmin is the best. This unit works well enough for what I need it to do though.

I installed the back-up camera (Pioneer ND-BC4) to this unit and it works very well. I was impressed with the image quality (see picture in image gallery).

The EQ settings are numerous and have allowed... Read more

4.0 out of 5 stars Pretty darn happy!, June 23, 2011
This review is from: Pioneer AVIC-Z130BT 7" In-Dash Navigation AV Receiver with iPod/iPhone Control, Bluetooth, Pandora (Electronics)
I read the negative reviews here before I purchased the unit. I've been in the electronics industry for almost 20 years, so I know you can find people unhappy with every product ever made. Anyway, the features seemed great, and it was less than the Kenwood, so I gave it a go. Impressions, comments:

1) all that "read the manual" stuff was not necessary. If you have been around computers, tv's, smart phones, electronics, etc... it's all about as clean and straight forward as you could ask for.

2) Uh, where is the "mute" button? lol There is an "off" button, but no "mute" button. Odd.

3) with "echo cancelling" set to "on" the bluetooth phone calls sound great for me and for the person I'm talking to. With all the people I know with lousy sounding handsfree bluetooth through the car stereo phone setups... this is reason enough to keep this unit, for me.

4) the touch screen scrolling of my DVD mp3s and my memory card mp3s is challenging;... Read more

3.0 out of 5 stars Nice try...maybe Pioneer should try using Android OS instead of creating their own software., September 30, 2011

(REAL NAME)   
This review is from: Pioneer AVIC-Z130BT 7" In-Dash Navigation AV Receiver with iPod/iPhone Control, Bluetooth, Pandora (Electronics)
It's...um...OK. I like the Pandora integration. It streams Netflix from the iPhone really well. You can access all the music/video on your iPhone.

The GPS is a joke. I am a software engineer, and I can't figure out their GPS. It is just plain ugly, and pretty much unusable. I'm going to instead use the MotionX app, which integrates pretty well with this unit.

Bluetooth works great with the iPhone. It was a little quirky when first setting it up, but it's been fine since.

The worst part is the responsiveness of the touch screen. After using our iPhones, Androids, and iPads, we now expect more out of our software. The touch screen in this unit is almost horrible. Scrolling can sometimes be a real challenge.

Would I recommend it? Not sure. Since it integrates well with my iPhone, I'll continue to use it and work around it's less than stellar features.
