SONY XAVAX8500
The SONY XAVAX8500 digital multimedia receiver features a 25.7 cm (10.1 inch) capacitive HD touchscreen with an updated display joint featuring a new tilt and swivel mechanism. Together with both wireless and wired connectivity to your smartphone and various devices, and sound customisation, it offers a safe and enjoyable driving experience.
Smartphone fun, without wires
Without exceptional smartphone integration, a new car stereo isn’t as exciting or useful. Thankfully, Sony includes the very best in the Sony XAVAX8500, with onboard Android Auto and Apple CarPlay that you can access with a wireless connection.
Android Auto (wired and wireless): Android Auto integrates the Android platform into your driving experience in a non-distracting way. You’ll have voice-control access to Google Maps, weather, music, your phone, and text messages, plus easy access to many of your favorite apps.
Apple CarPlay (wireless): CarPlay integrates your iPhone® into the driving experience, putting iPhone content at the driver’s voice command with minimal distraction. That means easy access to your music library, your phone, messages, navigation, and many third-party streaming music apps, too.
