Typically on Neowin we cover plenty of home audio gear like AV Receivers and soundbars. However, audio does not begin and end at the comforts of our house; some of us enjoy it while we are out on the roads too. It can even have benefits in terms of curing car/ motion sickness.
So if you are in the market for premium car stereo head unit gear, then the Pioneer AVH-3500NEX is one of those high-quality single-DIN (7" x 2") receivers that promises to deliver a full multimedia experience without demanding extra dash space; it is currently running a limited time sale at just $704, saving you over $125 (purchase link under the specs table down below).
With this, you get Apple CarPlay and Android Auto support, both wired, so navigation, messaging, and streaming are all handled seamlessly. Pioneer also includes its Vozsis app with Alexa, which means you can use voice commands for hands-free control. On top of that, Siri Eyes Free and Google VR are supported, giving you multiple assistant options depending on your device.
Unlike many newer receivers that have abandoned disc support entirely, the AVH-3500NEX still plays CDs and DVDs, which is a nice touch if you’ve got a collection you don’t want to leave behind. Meanwhile, Bluetooth streaming can cover your modern library, and the unit is SiriusXM-ready for satellite radio fans.
