Product Information

Then there are a handful of configuration switches which are meant to tweak the experience or work around compatibility issues with integrations of certain car and head unit manufacturers. Unfortunately some of the used terms are either poorly translated or not very intuitively chosen (e.g. Category which is more like an Audio Compatibility Mode ). Unlike the CarlinKit 4.0 which converts Wireless Android Auto to CarPlay , therefore not requiring an Android Auto compatible head unit, the CarlinKit 5.0 performs a straight passthrough from Wireless to wired Android Auto . This certainly has a positive impact on responsiveness, also enabling some Android Auto exclusive features of the MIB2 such as multi-touch gestures like pinch-to-zoom inside maps apps. the Bluetooth connection is complete,just wait for the car to automatically connect to wireless CarPlay/wireless Android Auto

There is no guarantee for an Apple -like carefree experience which is mostly due to the fact that the CarlinKit adapters are based on reverse engineered CarPlay and Android Auto protocol implementations, potentially suffering from compatibility issues with certain cars or head units. Therefore a Made for iPhone logo is nowhere to be found. For cars already supporting wired Android Auto , the CarlinKit 5.0 adapter is certainly the better option over the CarlinKit 4.0 , performing a straight passthrough of wireless to wired Android Auto rather than a cross-conversion to Apple CarPlay .

Despite being a wireless connection over Bluetooth and Wi-Fi, there’s no lag or delay when you’re scrolling around and interacting with your Apple CarPlay and Android Auto. As such, I never noticed that the whole experience is any different than just using a wired connection. This is partly thanks to the Carlinkit 5.0 2air’s 5.0~5.8 GHz wireless module, whose wireless transmission is much more stable and reliable. Simply tap to connect to this Bluetooth ID and you should then be asked to connect to Apple CarPlay. After confirming, you’ll then see CarPlay display wirelessly on your car’s display. 6. Connect to the Adapter’s Wi-Fi Network Sometimes the wireless CarPlay adapter will not sync with the car system if it isn’t ready to connect to it, and after that time has passed, the car system can stop connecting to the adapter altogether. Usually, a restart of the car is needed here, but if you’re on the road and can’t pull over and stop the car, you can simply reboot the car stereo. How does it handle on the road? Carlinkit proves to be a simple and effective solution . The operation is similar to the previous one and, during our tests, we did not notice any particular slowdowns or disconnections. Only on the occasion of continuous and deliberate disconnections did we notice a slight drop in pairing performance.

Compatible with the original car microphone, continue the original car sound quality,Retain the original car operation,such as touch screen ,steering wheel control and knob control etc. We have tested eight devices, and the experience with each was similar. What they all share is that once you have your phone connected, you’ll appreciate the ease of wireless CarPlay or Android Auto. But you'll also notice a slight lag from hitting a button on the screen to when it responds (for example, when pausing a song) compared with using the direct wired connection. Ottocast says the U2-Air works with 600+ car models from 2016 on, except for some Sony aftermarket head units. Its boot time is rated at 18 seconds, and it defaults to 5GHz Wi-Fi. This model only works with iPhones running IOS 10 and up. Unlike some of the other vendors in this roundup, Ottocast has actual offices in the US, but that doesn’t mean the device arrives in the mail any faster. Some adapters like the CarlinKit 5.0 does not land on a home or launch screen once connected and powered to your CarPlay port. So it is very easy to think that the adapter may be broken or faulty. On some adapters, this may not be the case. One other neat quality-of-life feature is that the Carlinkit 5.0 2air is non-intrusive. Therefore, the wireless adapter/dongle itself doesn’t interfere with the rest of your car’s functions. The rest of your infotainment system, as well as your other car controls, such as the pre-included voice assistant or your steering wheel controls, remains the same as before. Performance-wise, the Carlinkit 5.0 2air continues to impress.On the top of the casing, there is a CarlinKit logo, which also acts as a status light for the adapter. This light glows red when powered and green when you make a successful connection to the adapter. For CarPlay users, there is also a fun feature of this status light, in that it will display a colour hue from the album art that’s currently playing on apps like Spotify or Apple Music. I tried this feature also on Android Auto but the light just stayed on its active green state. Boot-Up & Interface Máte ve svém autě originální autorádio se systémem Apple Carplay nebo Android Auto a už vás nebaví neustálé připojování mobilu kabelem? Tak právě pro vás je určen tento univerzální bluetooth adaptér, který nahradí nepohodlné připojování mobilního telefonu USB kabelem pro spojení Apple Carplay / Android Auto.

The search ended with Carlinkit 4.0. Once you connect the device, you are greeted with a login screen and you have to connect the Bluetooth from your phone to this device, after that just follow the prompts on your phone and voila, you are connected!

An example is given by Carlinkit, which now offers the fifth version (CPC200-2air) of its flagship product which allows you to have Android Auto and Apple CarPlay wirelessly. One end has a USB-C port, and the other end has a USB-A port—but the latter is only for offline upgrades, so ignore it. The box contains two cables, one C-to-C and another C-to-A; to get started, plug the USB-C end into the Carlinkit 3.0 and the other end into whatever port you have on your dash or head unit. iPhone: iPhone 6 and above, iOS 10 and above versionAndroid phones: support Android 11.0 and above version

Audio also sounded good to me, wheel controls worked just fine, its GPS passthrough kept up with my car’s location, and calling and audio recording sounded good enough to me with calling delay being significantly reduced. Pro správnou funkci musí mít váš mobilní telefon nebo tablet operační systém iOS 10 a vyšší nebo Android 11 a vyšší. Adaptér nepodporuje funkci CarPlay / Android Auto v automobilu, který tento systém nemá - nepodporuje ho. Umožňuje pouze bezdrátové připojení namísto kabelového připojení v automobilech s CarPlay / Android Auto. Vozidla musí být z výroby vybavena/podporována systémem CarPlay nebo Android Auto. What's different from Carlinkit 4.0 ? Simple, while the previous model was only compatible with Apple CarPlay but managed to emulate both environments wirelessly, Carlinkit 5.0 is natively compatible with both worlds . The result is easy to understand: a faster , more complete, more compatible, and potentially more snappy system for managing the commands. The CarlinKit 5.0 allows multiple phones to be paired. There is no dedicated facility to select or on-the-fly switch between phones across the two supported platforms though. Here is a best practice for cross-platform phone switching that I could come up with while actively using my wife’s Android and my iPhone…
