178° full-viewing angle 1024 * 600 QLED display screen, outstanding viewing experience

The QLED display technology is an innovation best known for its outstanding color rendition and brightness. Coming with a 1024*600 QLED display screen with a 178° full-viewing angle, F7G2A7XE-NA offers a much better viewing experience in brightly lit areas. In addition, important app tips such as navigation prompts can be viewed more clearly.

AutoLink (MirrorLink) allows you to cast what's displayed on your smartphone to F7's big screen

You can run online GPS navigation apps (Google Maps, Waze, Tomtom, etc.) or play videos on Youtube, etc. on F7G2A7XE-NA's 7-inch screen. AutoLink is compatible with the latest Android & iOS smartphone models. Considering that neither CarPlay nor Andriod Auto is compatible with video apps such as YouTube, AutoLink provides an alternative option. Important: Some video streaming services (Netflix, AMZ Prime, Disney +, etc.) do not support MirrorLink.

HD 720P rearview video display with Live Rear-View (LRV) feature

Typically, head units can only process and display 480-600 lines CVBS rearview video signals. F7G2A7XE-NA displays HD 720P rearview videos (ATOTO AC-HD02LR rearview camera is required, sold separately). Say goodbye to snowy static pictures when reversing your vehicle. Live Rear-View (LRV) - Now you can access the rear view even if your vehicle in moving ahead. This frees you from obstructions of passengers, headrests and the vehicle's roof and rear pillars, increasing the field of view and offering the driver a clear view of the lanes behind and common blind-spots. You can set one of the steering wheel keys as a shortcut for quick access.

It is easy to control/operate your ATOTO F7!

While driving, reaching over and trying to operate the head unit can be distracting. F7G2A7XE-NA makes it possible to map 18 frequently-used functions to factory steering wheel audio keys for convenient operation. For vehicles without steering wheel audio controls, ATOTO AC-44F5 wireless IR remote is highly recommended. It does not, however, support key mapping (refer to its manual for details). You can wake up Siri or Google Assistant by voice command, by pressing the physical key on F7G2A7XE-NA, or by pressing the corresponding button on your steering wheel (if applicable) or on AC-44F5.

SXM Radio - yet another entertainment option on F7G2A7XE-NA

SiriusXM brings you the widest variety in music, live sports, international news & nonstop comedy via its satellite radio services. Just plug in a SiriusXM Connect Vehicle Tuner (i.e. SiriusXM SXV300AZV1 Satellite Radio Tuner Kit, not included in the package) and enjoy. Note: Subscription is required.

Built-in music/video player allows users to play back high quality audio and max. 1080P videos on F7G2A7XE-NA. All you need to do is hook up an external USB storage device or a Micro SD card with media files on it! It supports up to 512GB MicroSD & 2TB (2048GB) USB SSD for multimedia playback. Built-in video outputs in the back allow users to connect up to 2 monitors to F7G2A7XE-NA. The kids in the back seat will certainly love it!

Fast Phone Charging While Plugged-in

Vehicle Fitment:

• True 7-inch screen: Typically, North American dashboard mounting frame suppliers (Metra, Scosche, PAC, etc.) provide double DIN mounting frames with a 174 mm*98 mm opening, limiting the screen size of aftermarket head units to 6.75-inch or smaller (false 7-inch). ATOTO is the first manufacturer to introduce true 7-inch Android head units with a minimal front panel size of 172 mm*97 mm (fitting the mounting frames commonly available). If needed, an extra frame adapter is also included to expand it to 178 mm*101.5 mm.

• Compatible with 3rd-Party dash kits: The ISO Standard chassis size for double DIN head units is 178 mm*100 mm. In the case of the frontal faceplate, however, there is no such standard. As a result, many users have issues mounting head units from other brands with dash kits commonly available on the North America market. F7G2A7XE-NA, on the other hand, with its faceplate size of 172 mm*97 mm, is compatible with products from most North American dash kit brands (Metra, Scosche, PAC, etc.).
• Compact chassis for more room: The chassis is only 50-mm deep, shorter than the typical depth. Therefore, there is a larger space for cabling and other accessories.
• Extra accessories you may need to purchase: As this is a universally fit head unit, extra accessories may be required to finish installation in a specific vehicle (not provided in the package). It is the buyer's responsibility to prepare them (if applicable). They may include (but are not limited to) a dash frame kit, a wiring harness, a radio antenna adapter, a data interface, etc.
• We highly recommend the customers take the product to a professional car audio store to finish the installation and ensure connection wires are fully protected. if your buttons on the face unit will not work, please kindly re-connect the wiring harness to give a try. 

 Advantages of CarPlay/Android Auto on F7 XE:  

• Wireless is simply better: No more worries about where to put your plugged phone. No more search for a holder which you find to be superfluous anyway. No more entangled cords to distract you. Free at last!

• Fast and automatic connection: For wireless CarPlay/Android Auto, the Buetooth connection is quick. And after you make the connection for the first time, it will all be automatic. For wired CarPlay/Android Auto, once you plug your iPhone/Android phone into the "Phone Link" port on F7 XE, it takes about 3 seconds for CarPlay/Android Auto to be automatically launched. A true plug-n-play function.
• Stable data transmission: Thanks to the premium hardware inside, F7 XE is more than capable of delivering stable and reliable data transmission, both wirelessly (5G Wi-Fi) and wiredly (with USB), which is a strong bolster for you in driving.
• Great Performance Across All CarPlay/Android Auto Functions: CarPlay/Android Auto has revolutionalized the way we drive by enabling us to safely use the iPhone/Android phone while driving. Now we can make calls, send/receive messages, listen to music/radio/podcasts/news/audiobook... on the head unit while driving really conveniently. This, in turn, requires a head unit that can adequately meet the demands of these functions in terms of audio and visual performance. Regarding audio, on F7 XE, the max. 4*49W amplifier with RMS 4*29W (Vcc=14.4v,THD=10%) makes sure that whether you are making a call, listening to your favorite music or podcasts and so on, you can hear things clearly at a comfortable volume, powerful yet without any distortion. And the included microphone? Well, in our own customer's exact words:"I'm told that the sound is very clear." Visually, the full HD 7" 1024*600 QLED screen (brightness 600cd/m2), other than its fantastic ultra-clear color rendition, offers great visibility even in broad daylight. Also, as a 5-touch capacitive touchscreen, it is easy and smooth to operate on.
• You phone battery is finally safe: If you get in the car with low battery on your iPhone/Android phone, and you start driving using CarPlay/Android Auto, on many head units with only wired CarPlay/Android Auto, after the trip, the battery is barely charged, if at all. This problem does not exist with F7 XE. The reasons are a). with wireless CarPlay/Android Auto, you can drive using CarPlay/Android Auto while plugging your iPhone/Android phone into the USB port dedicated for charging in your vehicle, or putting it on the charging dock station. b). with wired CarPlay/Android Auto, by design, F7 XE is equipped with advanced PMS to charge your iPhone/Android phone quickly when you use wired CarPlay/Android Auto (plugged into the dedicated "Phone Link"port).

Important:

CarPlay iPhone compatibility: Wired CarPlay is compatible with iPhone 5 or later models with iOS 7.1 or higher. Wireless CarPlay is compatible with iPhone 5 or later models with iOS 9.0 or higher.

Android Auto phone compatibility: Wired Android Auto is compatible with phones with Android 6.0 or higher. Wireless Android Auto projection is compatible with any phone with Android 11.0, a Google or Samsung phone with Android 10.0 (Google Pixel 4, Samsung Note 9, Samsung Note 20, and Samsung S 10 have been tested to be compatible with wireless Android Auto on F7 XE), and selected Samsung phones with Android 9.0 (Samsung S8 and Note 8 have been tested to be compatible with wireless Android Auto on F7 XE).

Original USB cable for wired connection: If you choose to use wired CarPlay or wired Android Auto, for fast charging, for instance, factory/original USB cables are required. Non-manufacturer made USB cables may easily cause connection issues, such as black screen after minutes of playback, connection failure or unstable phone connection.
