Android Functionality in CIC Options

I don't think I've been able to track down a definitive thread on our options here, but is the Avin 8.8" the best option to get Waze + Tidal (like Spotify) in my 2012 E92? I've dug around a lot, some people seem to have bought it and loved it, others said they were really disappointed with it. It looks like the newest version has Android 7.1 and some updated hardware, I haven't really heard much about if the new version is any better, either.

Awesome! I didn't realize the 7.1.1 Avin unit was so new. Definitely looking forward to your thoughts on it! When do you expect it to arrive?

some time next week. I did a lot of looking for something that can replace my cic, and found this to be the only solution, so I just waited for the updated version with the 7.1.1 to come out. I heard good things about it so far but i will definitely let you know how it goes.

I've been looking at the 8.8" unit myself. It's currently back ordered.

Some think they've found the same unit being sold by other vendors. In fact, an Android 7.1 version became available before Avin had it.
