Erratum: 9" C7 device does not have 1280x720px HD screen, but 1024x600px

RSNAV.com regrets that we had announced our new 9" screen for C7 vehicles would have 1280x720 HD screen, but it turned out that the 1280x720 screen would cause jamming in the flip-up mechanism for its thickness. In light of this issue, we decided to go to 1024x600 SD screen for 9" devices. If you had reserved a 9"device already and do not wish to continue your order, please contact us.

Once again, we regret that we had to decide such change and it is our apology for the disappointment.

It's back. The New RSNAV S4 8.9" HD Android system for B8 car.

As promised, we are bring back the most factory looking unit of our own. Previously it had 8.8 inch 1280 x 480 SD display, but not it comes with 8.9 inch 1920 x 720 HD display. Will begin shipping around early June. Reserve yours now!

Note that the new display isn't compatible with older 8.8 mainboard thus we have no plan for an upgrade kit.

Shipping is expected from the late MAY, 2023.
