Very practical for those who will use their Carpuride CarPlay unit on different bikes.
Easy swap and the BM05 bracket is looking very neat on the bike without the CarPlay unit.
Because the 702Plus is an Android device, you no longer need Android Auto. So that was the main reason to order it; delivery took a very long time, almost 3 weeks. I previously had the 603B, but found the screen too small and there were frequent problems with Android Auto in combination with MyRoute-App Navigation Next. The application often froze on the 603B.
The 702Plus is easy to install, but it is quite a chore to neatly hide all 4 cables on the motorcycle. It would be better if this were done with a single Deutsch multi pin connector. Then it would deserve 5 stars. Or the longer cables on the device so you can hide the connectors somewhere else were there is more room.
It is best to install, update, log on to Google/Apple and install apps and offline maps before mounting it on the motorcycle by connecting the device to an external power supply or, as I did, to a spare 12V battery. I did it at home using the Wi-Fi connection, which was much faster and did not drain the motorcycle's battery too much. A 64GB SD card is included; I replaced it with a 256GB card so that I could download the maps for offline navigation.
I have now driven a few trips and am very satisfied with the 702B. I tested it completely without an internet connection, using a hot spot on my phone and with Android Auto, and encountered no problems whatsoever. It is a nice, large, and easily readable screen (1000 Nits), easy to operate, and a major advantage is that the 702B goes into a 4-hour sleep mode when you turn off the engine (during a refueling or lunch stop); it starts up again very quickly afterwards. With the 603B, it restarted every time, which took a long time, and often I had to restart the MyRoute-App Navigation Next on my phone as well because that app and Android Auto would freeze.
So nice to have android auto in this older car. One issue was I didn't have buttons on my steering wheel, so the control wasn't seamless. I found a wireless controller on Aliexpress app that connects easily to this head unit. It mounts below the screen and has 6 keys and a volume knob... works great. Just look for "wireless multimedia remote control 7 keys led car controller" on aliexpress. Totally worth it.
