A phone strapped to the handlebars takes the rain, heats up in the sun and absorbs the engine's vibration \u2014 which is what destroys camera stabilisers, and the failure is never covered by the warranty. This screen is made for that: IPX7 waterproof, it takes it, and the phone stays warm in a pocket.<\/p>\n
Two links, in this order: first the phone to the screen, for CarPlay or Android Auto; then the phone to the helmet intercom or your earphones, for the sound. The device has dual Bluetooth intended for exactly this arrangement.<\/p>\n
The manufacturer advises against the device for anyone with Xiaomi, Huawei and Samsung<\/strong> who are counting on wireless Android Auto: compatibility there is temperamental, and it is a known limitation of Android Auto on those brands, not a fault specific to this screen. On iPhone, CarPlay does not have this problem. If you are on one of those brands and Android Auto is the reason for the purchase, look elsewhere \u2014 we would rather say so beforehand.<\/p>\n The screen calls for 12 V et 3 A<\/strong>, with the cable supplied. It must be connected to the ignition wire (ACC)<\/strong>, never directly to the battery terminals: wired straight to them, it never switches off and drains the motorcycle's battery. Power over the USB-C port is not enough \u2014 the device restarts in a loop.<\/p>\n 5, 6.86, 7 and 8.1 inches. A detail the manufacturer gives away itself: in its own photos, the 7-inch model is wrongly labelled as an 8.1-inch. The 7-inch model does measure 7 inches, and the 8.1-inch remains the largest of the four.<\/p>\n A waterproof touch screen that fixes to the handlebars and shows your phone's CarPlay or Android Auto: navigation, music, calls, without ever taking the phone out of your pocket. Dual Bluetooth to send the sound to a helmet intercom.
