The unit also came with the latest software as can be seen in the screenshot below.
The new unit is allegedly a B and is much springier than my previous one. The connection to CarPlay is immediate unlike before where I'd have to force. All in all very pleased but would have preferred to have been sent a fresh unit in the first instance and avoided the extra expense and time wastage associated with the replacement. With that said I am now able to install the unit in under an hour even with an HK head unit so that's something to be proud of.
Hi

Was this directly from Andream?


I'm looking to pick one up and wondering if I can justify the £60 cost difference between the cheapest one on AliExpress and the Andream one

Many thanks
It was direct from Andream shipped from CZ (they ship from DE in fact). £187 or so. I paid in USD and the credit card conversion rate was favourable.
It was a spontaneous purchase and I didn't want to have to wait for weeks.
