La diferencia es como la noche y el día. Pasar de la pantalla de serie de 6,5 pulgadas a esta pantalla HD de 10,25 pulgadas hace que el coche parezca 5 años más nuevo. El ajuste en el salpicadero es perfecto. El CarPlay inalámbrico se conecta rápidamente y resulta muy práctico para usar Spotify y Google Maps. Me preocupaba la calidad del sonido, pero al utilizar la entrada AUX tal y como se indica, el audio se oye nítido y alto. Recomiendo encarecidamente adquirir la versión de 8 núcleos para mayor velocidad.
