Default Aftermarket Android Screen

Has anyone had experience installing an aftermarket Android screen into the ES? This screen would fill out the dash better with a 10” screen and also has the option for Apple CarPlay.

If you browse at the bottom its says you can select from a multitude of languages. Wouldn't make sense to sell it to outside markets if it only support Chinese.

I'm looking into changing mine for years but couldn't find one that worked as specified. The stock sucks so badly.

As far as I can tell, those are really old projects which he customized himself. Of course he will run into issues.

I have an aftermarket screen that runs Windows CE for navigation and audio. The installers removed most of the center dash and the shifter console to put in the display unit, CANBUS adapter and scroll wheel. It's been working fine for the past 4 years.

I really like it except the fact that it's running KitKat 4.4.4 operating system.. That is very dated

I think I have seen one brand with 7.1
aliexpi.com/liV

They all look the same though with more available ram I guess.
Make sure you order the correct part that fits your vehicle whether it has a mouse controller unit or not..

Edit: I have ordered mine which I'll be testing out within 2 weeks.
