Clarion NX505E review

Brand new head unit from Clarion has clearly been launched to take the fight to the Pioneer AVIC F70DAB.

Clarion NX505E
Overall Auto Express rating

4.0

Best price: £652.13 Type: Double DIN

Brand new head unit from Clarion has clearly been launched to take the fight to the Pioneer AVIC F70DAB. It’s just as easy to fit as our Best Buy, while build quality is as solid as you expect for the money. Plus, you get a raft of futureproof features, including navigation and voice control (branded as Intelligent Voice by Google). That makes this a wise investment if you spend a lot of time in the car – although if you want full smartphone integration as on the Pioneer, you’ll require an app.
