Today, I will introduce the hot product AutoPro, which is currently trending among car accessories.
Unboxing:
It comes in a rectangular cardboard box. What could be inside?
The weight was surprisingly light.
For a long time, the inconvenience of wired connection with Android Auto has been resolved with the appearance of a solution.
In reality, the majority of people are unaware that their cars have such a feature.
Most car models since 2017-2018 come with this feature by default.
Product Components:
Main unit + A to C cable
Also, a C to C cable
Power consumption: 0.85W
Product size: 55 x 75 x 14mm
It’s quite compact.
Moreover, it automatically connects after the initial setup, making it convenient to control various features such as Google Assistant, navigation, music playback, and phone calls wirelessly through Android Auto.
Let’s compare the actual size.
The actual size that fits perfectly in the hand gives a satisfying feeling.
The convenience of wireless – those who haven’t tried it wouldn’t know.
So, let’s introduce it in detail.
In recent 5-7 years, most vehicles have USB ports. Some vehicles even have charging ports, indicated by a lightning symbol, specifically for phone charging.
The USB port labeled ‘USB’ in the middle is where we connect Android Auto. Sometimes, there are issues with connecting because people mistake it for a charging port, probably because both ports look the same.
These days, many vehicles support C to C type connections.
Size Reference:
The size itself is appealing. It can be easily stored in the compartment, but for comparison with the car’s internal UI buttons, let’s put it up.
Before Connection:
In fact, Android Auto also works with a wired connection. Connect your smartphone to the car’s USB port with a cable, and it will start running. Many people are unaware of this feature, and even if they know, it can be cumbersome to connect the phone every time.
Now, with AutoPro, this inconvenience is resolved.
Upon starting the car, AutoPro’s LED lights up, and it quickly starts running when you buckle up and start driving.
The booting speed was faster than the Android Auto products I’ve used before.
Once initiated, the Android Auto icon activates on the car’s TFT LCD screen.
On-screen Appearance:
T-map, KakaoNavi, Naver Maps, messages, calls, Google Assistant, news, weather, and various music apps can now be conveniently controlled through wireless Android Auto.
Let’s compare the sizes once again.
The freedom to change positions:
You can freely change the positions of the navigation screen to the right and the music screen to the left. This adjustment is based on the user’s touch preferences.
Navigation Search Screen:
You can search and navigate through various navigation apps like T-map, KakaoNavi, Naver Maps on the car screen, eliminating the need to check the phone. Additionally, the route guidance algorithms, such as RG (Route Guide) and RP (Route Plan), are displayed on the car screen, providing a wider view for navigation.
Dreaming of a trip to the east coast of Gangwon Province, but for now, just searching.
Now, let’s experience the freedom of wireless connection by acquiring AutoPro.
No need to connect and disconnect the smartphone every time you park or stop at a rest area.
